A fascist once said that all power comes from the barrel of a gun. That’s why they want to ban guns make sure only the police have guns.

Wait, jurors identities were public before that?
Ranked choice still doesn’t solve the winner-takes-all situation that is the presidential election. Instead it should be appointed by a group of competent people, who in turn are voted in by something like ranked choice or whatever.
Pure popular vote = only large population centers matter because most of the people live there, meaning politicians can safely ignore rural areas that provide all of the food to the cities because they don’t matter votes-wise. Terrible idea for a large country that doesn’t (net) import its food. This also ignores the fact that stupid, easily manipulated people are also allowed to vote.
Electoral college = rural areas have a disproportionately large voice as they should, but large cities are now neglected. Rural votes are also easily influenced by bad actors, like how China is trying to buy African votes to have a bigger say in the UN.
But Twitter has been dead ever since threads took over…
Antisemitism is hecking cool if it is used to dunk on Elon /s
There was a tiny and insignificant event in neighboring China called “the opium wars”. Tends to make Asian governments a bit touchy about drugs.
Affirmative action was banned because it was found to disadvantage Asian people, especially the Hmong, Laotian and other SEA people who are not stereotyped as “good at math”. On average an Asian applicant needs a SAT score 250 points higher than a Black applicant to have the same chance to be admitted under affirmative action.
Edit: did some further reading on the subject since then, apparently it’s so bad that experts (college admissions counselors) actively encourage Asian applicants to hide their race to get better chances of admission. Also it is not unknown for darker-skinned Asians to simply declare their race as Black.
I would like to see schoolgirls (or boys) with beehives please
The only add-on that I consider necessary is uBO (with advanced settings).
All others are very good to have installed, in fact I use many of them, but I can live on just fine without them.
Don’t worry, ““artists”” only complain about ai when open source ai gets released.
If those people have ever tried actually using image generation software they will know that there is significant human authorship required to make something that isn’t remotely dogshit. The most important skill in visual art is not how to draw something but knowing what to draw.

The expanse (the novels). Time jumps in sci-fi are hard to do right. The show had the good sense to end it before the time jump, but they still had to put in admiral Duterte and MCR II (Laconia) in the final season with little to no follow-up because that was in the books
MAAM DO NOT REDEEM
Having a unique use case doesn’t mean it’s still not an incredibly stupid product. Same as with smart door locks, smart safes, smart guns and smart “full self driving” cars.
Imagine having your smart cock cage locked out by Amazon because some rando told them you are racist lmao
It’s the same reasoning behind pride parades and banning hate speech. Right wingers will hide behind “free choice” to spread their oppression of women and to shelter their children from progressive ideology, therefore we must forcibly expose them to tolerant viewpoints in the name of equity.
Yes they do. They want guns for their “civil militia”, but not for Black people.
