Pretty sure kids these days are going to be more familiar with Goku and Hulk than Mighty Mouse.

“You see, I need cocaine to accelerate my thought process and unleash the full potential of my mind. I’m not sure what you would get out of it, but I’m sure it would be a waste, by comparison.”

No. Sherlock has cocaine, but he doesn’t share cocaine.

I don’t think you understand my point. You made a comment about how I should judge politicians on their actions, not their words. So I pointed out that Biden’s actions before his election included anti-bussing legislation, several racist drug bills, and the worst expansion of the prison-industrial complex in history. I’m glad you’re happy with Biden’s performance as President, but you clearly ignored a lot of what he did as a Senator and listened to what he said as a presidential candidate (or you really like racist drug policies and mass incarceration).

LOL, if that were answer, then Biden would be judged on the anti-drug legislation he spearheaded in '84, '86, and '88 that gave us expanded sentences for possession, civil asset forfeiture, and the racist sentencing disparity between crack and powdered cocaine. He’d also be judged on the 1994 crime bill he co-authored that led to the largest increase in mass incarceration in 40 years. Oh, and let’s not forget the time he teamed up with Robert Byrd, a Senator and Klansman, to pass anti-bussing legislation. Point is, Biden has benefited a lot from people listening to what he says and forgetting what he’s done.

Well, millennials voted for Obama because he genuinely inspired hope. Then we saw how he governed and it killed our entire generation’s sense of hope.

And so, after a 30 second speech, Mr. Hand turned the remaining hour of television into a free Town Hall for his opponent.

Congratulations to the American electorate for maintaining the barest minimum standards! …sorta…for now.

I mean, fair enough, but I’ve never heard anyone use tankie as…well, not a pejorative. Like, I’ve never heard a liberal call themselves a, “libtard.”

He is. Check the Mod Logs. He can’t go a week without getting a comment removed or a temporary ban. He’s honestly one of the most toxic accounts on Lemmy.

The worst thing for a tankie like me was running here to get away from the insane msn-pilled discourse, finding some actual leftists, only to have have leredditors chase me down sayin’ i am following them.

Uh…tankies and leftists are not the same thing (though the liberals on Political Memes don’t seem to understand the difference). Tankies are authoritarian-apologists. It was coined by British communists who wanted to differentiate themselves from pro-Soviet communists (specifically, communists who were defending the Soviets sending tanks into Hungary). In the modern sense, it’s used to describe communists who defend authoritarian socialist or communist states. If you don’t feel compelled to justify Stalinism, the Tiananmen Square massacre, or the Uyghur genocide, you’re probably not a tankie.

Later on Tuesday, Biden appeared to tone down his criticism of Netanyahu. Asked whether Netanyahu was “playing politics with the war”, Biden said: “I don’t think so. He’s trying to work out a serious problem he has.”

Every time he starts to give something halfway close to a good response to something insane happening in Gaza, he walks it back within days.

I mean…not the Ghostbusters. They’re the ones that brought it to life.

The controller was weird, but they didn’t have a template yet for what a joystick controller should look like. Also, it makes a lot more sense if you understand that you’re never supposed to the D-Pad/Joystick at the same time. Left hand goes on the D-Pad handle for 2D games, Joystick handle for 3D (some third-party developers didn’t understand this though).

Yeah, low turnout is basically the only way Republicans win anymore. That’s actually why I’m still pretty worried about Biden’s chances; the way he’s handled Israel is killing enthusiasm in young progressives and (more importantly) Muslims in Michigan.

Also, to add to this, mountain lions are cats that are roughly the size of humans and really aren’t much of a threat to us. I’m not saying you could kill one with your bear hands, and they have been know to kill adult humans if they can get the drop on them, but they really aren’t a huge threat head on. The safety advice for dealing them is to get aggressive, look big, throw rocks and sticks at them, and physically fight them off if they attack, as they’re usually easily driven off. If we had the physiology and relative muscle mass of gorillas, we’d probably kill them pretty easily.

Yeah, my theory for why she stayed in so long was because she was waiting to see if one of his trials caused him to drop out. Also, my understanding is that political parties aren’t obligated to select the candidate primary voters choose, and the leadership could just go into a back room and pick whoever they like.

I do. I also remember her campaign intentionally elevating Trump in the primaries and ignoring Michigan organizers who begged her campaign to focus on the rust belt. I think I’ll reserve my sympathy for all the election officials, prosecutors, judges, jurors and even assault victims who became Trump’s punching bags without helping him ascend to the highest office in the country through their own hubris, and not worry about what Clinton might feel she’s owed.

Hillary Clinton makes every piece of news about Trump into an excuse to relitigate an election she lost due to her campaign’s spectacular incompetence

Clinton chuds: wHy ArE YoU oBseSseD wItH hEr?!?!?
