Voting takes like an hour every 2 years, it’s really not that hard. And yes on election day some areas have very long lines, but everywhere has some form of mail ballot and/or early voting.

It’s so easy there’s no reason not to go do it. I’ve spent more time switching a license at the DMV than voting has ever taken.

Also not a single one of those movements existed in a political vacuum. The threat of violence did exist, but so did the threat of politicians losing their positions. Honestly outside of the labor movements/skirmishes everything else you listed existed well within election politics. The movements were absolutely necessary to effect change, but not an either/or situation by any measure. Both was necessary

Almost like the presidential primary isn’t the only primary. The rise of the DSA is showing what primaries can do. And listen I’m not saying they’re perfect and will fix everything, but their a whole hell of a lot better than the options we’ve had.

Also don’t misunderstand you are right about Bernie and well the whole not having a presidential primary, but there’s no reason you can’t try to use the tools available within the system to marginally improve the circumstances of the working class AND pursue more radical action. You can do both

I highly doubt Harris would have got involved in a prolonged war. Maybe a strike to satisfy Israel, but honestly I find that hard to believe too.

Oh well in a few months we all will be hurting from the oil shortages regardless

As a member of the LGBTQ community myself, I think it’s pretty funny.

And it’s certainly not a “Hahaha that’s gay” joke. That’s missing the point

I hate hallway interactions so much. I even enjoy talking to people and socializing. Put me in a bar with the same people I pass in the hallway and we’ll have a nice chat, but as soon as they are in the hallway I’m so nervous and tense.

I think it’s the situation being undefined and I don’t want to bother people if they have somewhere to go

And there’s no evidence Vance fucked a couch, but I’m still choosing to believe it

Except for the design and almost all the parts. Probably was assembled here

No need, its unlikely anyone would strike the US on Iran’s behalf. Even if Iran has made nuclear weapons there’s no evidence of them ever working on ICBMs.

If the US nukes Iran we can expect their entire arsenal, including any nukes they might posses, to be launched at Israel.

I worked in the government for a bit, national park service if it matters, we were only allowed to use US made vehicles.

Constant recalls, constant breakdowns, overall unreliable. These were all vehicles that were less than 5 years okd

I have a 2007 toyota today that refuses to die and has barely needed any work. I’ll probably have it at least another 3 to 5 years at this rate.

American cars are shit
