Don’t forget to contact your senators & representatives. This is what seniors deal with in all aspects of their lives. We gotta not think that other people will fix these problems cause no one is doing shit but allowing it to happen.

Sometime a streamer, he show his pre-release to corporation Nintendo and say “You will never get this you will never get it la la la la la la.” Nintendo behind its lawyer. Nintendo cries, Nintendo cries and everybody laughs. Streamer goes “You never get this.” But one time Nintendo send lawsuit and Nintendo “get this” and then we all laugh. High five!

- Comment on Haters will say it’s fake 1 month ago:
It isn’t subjective. Voters will tell you why they didn’t turn out or voted third party. The economy is important, but Harris turning to Mark Cuban to push establishment messaging wasn’t a good selling point either.
- Comment on Haters will say it’s fake 1 month ago:
This was totally the fault of Democrats. They are the reason they lost. Blaming anyone else or acting like it was just a coincidence is nothing more than denying reality. Israel and the Cheney parade definitely played a role. The negative ads targeting progressives like Jill Stein played a role. Kamala hiding from progressive networks that would ask real questions played a role. The Democratic party has become nothing more than a dysfunctional corporate bureaucracy that thinks they can convince everyone that shit is gold.
- Comment on True Story 1 month ago:
The only one being naive here is you. I don’t think it will stop cause Trump won. It will likely get worse. Democrats could have stopped it though, but their “we’re terrible, but the other guy is worse” messaging isn’t as effective as “no more genocide.”
- Comment on True Story 1 month ago:
Agreed 100%. It’s the refusal to self-reflect and attacks on anyone who dare to question that turns people away. Not only is Bill Clinton a terrible campaign messenger, but he was chastising Arab-americans in Michigan for being against genocide. Just like Obama was blaming black men.

Democrats will take no responsibility for why they lost.

It is called democracy when you can’t force people to do what you want.
- Comment on True Story 1 month ago:
Genocide-enabling establishment cultist can’t figure out why they lost, but sure everyone who tried to get them to see the end result if they didn’t change their tune are the the agent provocateurs.

In other words, the people that refused to cater to the cultic cognitive dissonance are to blame and Democrats will learn nothing.

Because that is how they are acting. They use a term meaning a woman’s vagina as an insult. Asshole would be much more gender neutral and non-sexist. Everyone who votes for a pro-genocide candidate is an asshole.
- Comment on OpenWrt One WiFi 6 router samples are now available 2 months ago:
You’ve made good points here. Using them as dumb AP points or basic budget routers makes sense. If I want more advanced and user-friendly configuration then I might look elsewhere, but for those use cases, can’t go wrong.
- Comment on OpenWrt One WiFi 6 router samples are now available 2 months ago:
I’ve been running OpenWrt for over 10 years but at this point it is trash. The documentation is outdated, the packages aren’t well maintained and Luci development is torture. I’m so ready to stop trying and get UniFi devices. Heck, pfSense/OPNsense are so much better.

It is really hard to take federal law seriously though when the very next section 18 U.S. Code § 922 states:

- Comment on More than 28% of Americans are now searching for a new job — the highest rate in a decade 3 months ago:
All of those things you quoted Biden as saying can be (and are) true while still requiring improvement, which is also true.
I agree with most of what you’re saying… there are plenty of other statements though that is kind of like a slap in the face, basically making people feel like Democrats haven’t been honest about the job market & inflation. It is not a simple issue though and there are a lot of contributing factors. Kamala Harris suggesting going after price gouging is actually a significant cause of the issue that corporate shills on both sides are attacking her for. It actually does work to help solve some of the issues though, but thus far is merely a statement. The FTC actually has legal authority to go after companies for this already… it seems like we’ve seen a shortage of government attorneys tackling these issues and utilizing PR for the cases to reassure Americans that the administration isn’t just loyal to corporate donors. They should be hiring attorneys in droves to sue the fuck out of these companies engaging in this.
That is also completely ignoring the fact that with a Republican Congress a Democratic president is severely hampered from having any actual impact on the economy.
The FTC has authority to go after these companies already. There could be new laws and improvements in regulations, but laws already exist to tackle the issue.
There is also the issue of companies inflating the appearance of available work. Which would, again, make all of Biden’s statements appear to be technically true while simultaneously being more complicated in reality.
Exactly. Job number and statistic on the economy can be completely manipulated. That is why Democrats shouldn’t use economic numbers constantly to make it seem like everything is great and they should know better.
- Comment on More than 28% of Americans are now searching for a new job — the highest rate in a decade 3 months ago:
Joe Biden:
“We now have more jobs than we did before the pandemic. And workers aren’t just finding more jobs, they’re finding better jobs, higher pay, higher job satisfaction. And unemployment is down and so is inflation.”
If they’re saying there are more jobs, people are finding more jobs & better jobs, higher pay, higher job satisfaction… and inflation is down. But then people go buy gas, or go to the store, and still struggle substantially, or they want to buy a house for a family but the prices are out of control, or they keep getting rent increase notices… they aren’t going to feel what the Democrats are selling, cause it isn’t their reality. Poll after poll, the economy is the biggest reason people would not vote for Biden. They are trying to gaslight a majority of voters about reality.
Now, regardless you’re still better off voting Democrat. I would not recommend voting for Trump cause he did worse & will do worse. But Democrats need to stop trying to gaslight Americans. Kamala has changed her tune a bit to try to recognize that people are actually struggling, but it doesn’t help when they act like the economy is the best its ever been despite that not being a reality for a lot of people.

Weird… Democrats will tell you that the job market is great and that not being able to afford a house is just vibeflation.
