Because he's an arrogant, venal sociopath who's been running for this office since he had to drop out in 1988?
If only he were part of a political party that could execute policy matters without him, as opposed to solely developing and passing legislation and department policy by hand...
At this point it has negative votes. The neolibs are literally downvoting reality to try to protect the man who will make them lose to a man they claim will be a dictator if elected. It's truly amazing how they've become Blue MAGA.
Yeah, where was all this "The president can just have you killed without due process!" outrage when Obama had a Denver born 16yo citizen killed without due process? Neolibs haven't held this party to account since the 90's, and are now surprised (or unconcerned) that it's become a social club that cares more about maintaining internal control than winning elections.
For the people who are actually on the DNC rules committee and run the party, the DNC is their social club they want absolute control of. They only participate in elections to fundraise so that they can run ads and take a cut of the ad spend to fund the party and their own lifestyle. If anything, a Trump dictatorship, as long as it allows fundraising and ad spending in "opposition" actually benefits them just fine. And if there's no possibility of them winning, only the most glassy-eyed cultists remain in the party so no more internal dissent, which is perfect for them.
If the neolibs put 1% of the energy they spend downvoting hard truths into demanding their party try to win rather than maintain internal control of the party, they'd be up by 10 points in the presidential race
Neolibs love downvoting over pressuring the party they love like Heaven's Gate members to switch out candidates.
Yes! They ARE blue MAGA. It's insane.
Neolibs: "It is wrong that the GOP has become nothing more that a vehicle for Donald Trump's ambitions."
also Neolibs: "It would be wrong for the DNC to be anything more than a vehicle for Joe Biden's ambitions."
This kind of in-accountability, where you neolibs cover for Biden and the DNC like a child hiding their alcoholic parent's empty nip bottles, is A) sad and B) to blame for being in this situation to begin with. Enjoy they fruit of your labors.
Parties don't have primaries out of the goodness of their hearts, they have them to avoid situations like this. But the geniuses at the DNC won't learn a damn thing from this because they cannot fail, only be failed.
The fact that the "Ukraine can win by winning the vibes war!" crowd hasn't downvoted this to all hell yet is a hilarious indictment of their self awareness...
Your VPN isn't forcing you onto its DNS and is using your ISP's. I'd assume Proton has some kind of "antitracker" option or similar in the client that would make it use a Proton-provided DNS server. Failing that, you can use a public DNS server located outside of a piracy shield country by setting it manually.
Sorry, I didn't mean to do a doubleplus ungood by saying something true about Dear Leader. We should support anything he does because Emmanual Goldstein.
Per Nicholas Kristoff's reporting in the NYT, Biden's been an advocate for Israel murdering as many children as possible going back to their invasion of Lebanon in the Reagan administration. The only issue he's never flip-flopped on is murdering children.
Yeah, I use Gnome, and I kind of hate it and feel like a bunch of religious ideologues are constantly trying to break my window manager on update so I find Jesus, but I'm used to it, so it's what I use...
Bill Clinton and Obama were better at not specifically going out of their way to make a show of antagonizing their own base (with the exception of Sista Souljah). Hillary and Biden (especially Biden surrogates like Simone Sanders and Jen Psaki and Karine Jean Pierre) you can SEE the contempt just DRIP off of them. It's insulting, and it's going to cost them volunteers and donations, even if most of those voters are in one party DNC rule states they overtly take for granted. There's a reason why the dems lost the house in 2022 basically entirely in the NYC metro area.
Yes, it would be deeply unfair were a hypocrite need to deal with their actions...
Oh, well then they're just you, per that factor like having your password
Do you mean individual 10 second 6 digit codes? If so very little. If the underlying secret, then they can Google Authenticator codes as if they're you.
