I can’t tell if this is a deliberate propaganda campaign or people are actually this clueless and think incumbent presidents regularly compete in primaries.

Honestly I think it’s both. This type of talking point is easy to sell to the people who whine about The Establishment without putting in a modicum of effort to understand why things are that way

Sorry, I wasn't aware that lemmy.world was a tankie safe-haven in the two weeks it was around before you joined. My bad.

If you want to minimize opinions of people who joined recently, try not being someone who also joined recently.

  1. I didn't call you conservative

  2. I don't believe as single word you said in your first paragraph

They should do everything they can to stop fighting ASAP including a surrender to the Russian forces if necessary

  1. Go fuck yourself tankie.

  2. Tens of thousands of taxes from any individual or family does not go towards the war supplies being sent to Ukraine. Unless you're a multimillionaire - which you are not.

The choices aren't Democrats or Republicans. It's Democrat, Republican, or stay at home and not vote. I'm not dumb enough to think people are willing to change positions easily these days. But R's just got fed some good red meat (Dobbs), which means some of them will become complacent. There isn't one issue at the moment which motivates their base as good as abortion, which is why they're flailing around and trying to demonize trans folk

The moronic general public already thinks holding 45 accountable is "political persecution" source. This is with rocksteady evidence. And now you people are talking about charging R-aligned Justices on loose bribe accusations? Just... no. This is how you fire up their base and hand R's the election with a supermajority.

This is the Congress' job to fix. Want it fixed? Stop relying on the president and start figuring out how to make Congress actually work again.

I wish to subscribe to your newsletter. I'm guessing a search for open RTMP ports, geolocation, and a few other criteria?

The use of lead alloys in telecom cables started in the 1880s and the industry began to phase out placement of new lead-sheathed cables in the 1950s after developing a new type of sheathing," the trade group's website said. "Some of these cables still provide customer voice and data services, including connecting 911 service, fire alarms, and other central monitoring stations."

Sounds about right. So they did stop using it when the negative effects of lead started being more well-known. You know what happens when they try to remove that cable in favor of fiber? You get people who whine that the telcos are getting rid of landline copper connections.

It’s to prevent normalization. If you keep it in the news, then people will remember it when election time comes around.
