People don’t even take turns in a circular firing squad.
I have no idea what you’re talking about any more.

Neutrality is about not treating some forms of data different than others.
Data caps are still neutral. They don’t care what kind of data you use, only how much.

That’s not to say they aren’t a problem. Just a different one.

It’s not an argument. It’s an excuse.
A post-hoc justification, given as a robotic response to my explaining how it’s false.
In this exchange it’s literal nonsense.

This is objectively FUBR. But is Fuck Cars against ambulances?
I’m not against ambulances!

That could be.
That’s not what I was thinking.
Thinking again, that seems quite likely.

No candidates stepped forward.

Because Biden ran.
I said that.
That was the whole point of what I said.

You don’t seem to be participating anyway.

That makes sense.

Biden never should have run a second time at all. His running scared away any other candates. If he clearly said he wouldn’t run for a second term, they could’ve had a full open primary with a dozen candates or more.

As it was, they did everything they could to discourage a real, full primary process.

Even after he was forced out, he could’ve not handed he’s entire campaign war chest and staff to Harris. And instead had a contested convention where candates lobbied attendees for their votes. Like used be done a century ago. Then given all his campaign resources to that nominee.

She’s not saying Harris needed a few more weeks. She’s saying Biden never should have gone for a second term, and they should have had a real primary process to choose a better candate. Which was a mistake I pointed out when Biden announced his second run.

Technically, legally, it is that simple.
All it takes is some courage.

That’s not how that works.

The average mainstream American likes Christmas.
The average mainstream American doesn’t own 90 ugly Christmas Sweaters so they can wear a different one every day for 2 months.

You are the latter.

I’d get back to the judge today, saying we’re ready to procede as planned. His employment status is unrelated to the case.

It’s weird when you agree with some of a persons conclusions, but not the way they reached them.

I’m very conflicted. The 230 stuff really needs to be revisited. But net neutrality should be left alone.

Ruud is Dutch. FediDB says the server is in the US. So maybe we’re talking about two different things.

FediDB says it’s located in US.

Husba works for me

I think you mean progressives.

The issue there, is not having a progressive party to vote for.

The Democrats have been nearly as as tied to Neoliberal Capitalism as the Republicans. They only done the bare minimum to court progressives, so as to not upset the big donating ownership class.

But perhapse if they loose enough, they might catch on and start to embrace economic-populism.

I voted for them. But I can’t blame people who don’t. We’ve been ignored for decades now.

I think you’re missing Lemmy.world.
Easily the biggest, and US based.

You are implying that there is no one to vote for.

Not at all. You even quoted me saying someone, not anyone.

No one is blaming anyone for not voting for someone they don’t like.

I guess I’m assuming they don’t like either of the possible winners, I didn’t think of the others, because they don’t matter.

“You can’t blame me; there’s not something I want to vote for.”

I’ve never seen that. Do you see it frequently? How many times this week?

All the Christians would hate him.
