- Comment on If a person gets busted for let's say a 3rd DWI or small bag of weed or something minor, and escapes the county jail. Will they launch a manhunt after you like they do with killers and such? 5 days ago:
However, if this person is driving drunk a third time, they should stay in jail.
Getting caught a third time. Which probably means they’ve actually done it dozens to hundreds of times.

Not sure. Thankfully, I’m not the one in charge of deciding it.

IMO, it’s not super important to put everything back exactly the way it was.
Rebuild the east wing with something new, but more in line with the original dimensions and purpose, while still fitting the aesthetic of the building, at least on the outside. Ideally, it could be a symbol of ‘looking forward to a better future’ rather than ‘put it back the way it was before’. Like … at least put some solar panels on the roof, lol.

When they voted to release the Epstein files, it was unanimous except for one holdout.
I don’t think it’s likely, but I do think it’s within the realm of possibility, especially now that they’ve seen what rewards they’ll get for loyalty.

They have 54 dems for sure, maybe 56 if remaining undecided seats go dem – since those two remaining seats are currently leaning dem, let’s assume they’ll have 56.
A 2/3 supermajority requires 67. They’ll need 11 of the 44 Republicans to go along with it. Yes, that’s kind of a big ask, but it’s only 1/4 of them. And in the Senate in particular, some of them will be looking at trying to get reelected in 2028. A presidential election year, which already doesn’t usually bode well for Republicans. After looking at what happened in the midterms, I think it’s plausible that you could find 11 Republicans who are willing to throw Trump under the impeachment bus in order to distance themselves from him and improve their reelection chances.

I think that might actually be a possibility.
Republicans in Congress have just seen what being loyal to Trump will get them. And it will only take a few of them breaking ranks…

It can’t just be the gas prices, right?
I’ve been highly disappointed by the American voters before, and I expect I will be again.
But, yeah. I’d wager that a simple fuel price graph could predict the outcome of the next several elections. If it’s high, people will vote out whoever is currently in power.

A) This may shock you to find out, but there’s a whole rest of the world outside of Gaza, and things that benefit the rest of the world are still good, even if they don’t benefit Gaza.
B) Genocide Lite© is still better than Double Genocide Ultra-Extreme+ Turbo-Mode©

meanwhile while that’s the hottest debate behind closed doors.
Why keep the debate behind closed doors?
If you don’t believe China is socialist, what do you hope to gain by going around the rest of Lemmy and insisting that China is socialist?
- Comment on Lemmy users logging on to level set the Blue Wave enjoyers 1 week ago:
Socialists are not tankies, and tankies are not socialists (despite often claiming otherwise).
- Comment on Lemmy users logging on to level set the Blue Wave enjoyers 1 week ago:
because they think that after he’s destroyed the US, a socialist utopia will rise from the ashes.
Not even that – they just want to clear the way for Russia/China to gain more power.

that we can materially improve people’s situations without protest.
Who said anything about without protest?
As always, voting is one of several strategies we must pursue at once … and it’s not even the most important one.
- Comment on Lemmy users logging on to level set the Blue Wave enjoyers 1 week ago:
All the tankies I’ve talked to seem to be fully in favor of accelerationism – just wanting whatever will cause the most damage to the US the fastest. So, yeah – they were absolutely rooting for the Republicans.

Musk was always a con artist and Nazi cunt.
Very much so. But in earlier times, that was less obvious and less public, so I can excuse people for not knowing about it back then.

I think it started when he got involved with those thai soccer team kids who were stuck in a cave and called the coach a pedophile for disagreeing with him
Even then, being a petty bitch and calling someone a pedophile is one thing. But doing multiple Nazi salutes on live TV is something else entirely.
I can see ignoring the former if you like the cars – if you limit your car-buying to brands whose CEO hasn’t done stupid, fucked-up shit, your list of available car brands is going to get very short very fast. But the latter? Fuck no. Not under any circumstances. If the only cars left in the world were Teslas, I’d ride my bicycle instead.

Unfortunately, my usual resource for this kind of thing (google ngrams) is being foiled by the word ‘frunk’ being used in a lot of other weird contexts.
- Comment on you can't pretend it's not funny 1 week ago:
The company is owned by the same guy, regardless of which model you buy.
I’ll give some people with older models a pass. Musk was less visibly a Nazi asshole back in the day. And maybe it’s just not feasible for them to buy a different car at the moment when they already have this one.
However, this pass never applies to Cybertruck owners, because Musk was already very public about it well before the first Cybertrucks were available to buy.
- Comment on you can't pretend it's not funny 1 week ago:
‘Frunk’ is not Tesla-specific. Many electric cars have a frunk, and the term even predates electric cars – it’s common for rear-engine gasoline cars to have a frunk.
