Yes, but I think the point is that strong man types do appeal to a certain demographic that they are trying to influence, not that it appeals or should appeal to themselves or the general population

I think they meant that presidents should be forgettable and avoid damaging stuff

So let’s put pressure on our government to do that instead of trying to shoot ourselves in the foot.

It’ll be okay to vote third party (in a social sense since it’s already allowed legally) when we change the election systems that we use so that third party votes are not spoiler votes. Let’s abandon First Past the Post and use something like Ranked Choice Voting or better.

This does not say she is bragging about doing anything sexual with Trump. She is trying to deny it.

Fun is also what fuels exploration and learning. I think the overall point here is that there are people who have fun with different experiences that may be at odds with each other. Some people like struggling with something until they achieve success, and others just want to relax and have a good time.

Personally, I’ve had my fun with hard games in the past, but I’m turned off from the idea of getting stuck behind a skill barrier because I’m older now and have less time to spend on games.

What is your opinion of the idea that this position may make you indistinguishable from a Trump supporter?

Almost! Kamarades. Kamalades?

Does celebate mean virgin? I thought it just meant not having sex.

“getting at girls” “as young as possible”, even post-puberty is basically pedophilia, do you not agree?

Can’t it be fixed?

He’ll probably blame rigged elections for his loss. In his mind, he wants to avoid the idea he ever made a bad choice.

It seems like it is useful to try to speak to the median voter and (supposed) undecideds who would be affected by this. There are lots of other publications with different perspectives. Is it bad necessarily that this one exists and operates this way?

People often segregate themselves into bubbles separated from others they oppose. I can say since the political affiliation is known from past elections, that has become a stronger factor when I am deliberating on which places I would want to live. I’m sure this is adding to the polarization, where people are gravitating to communities that more often reinforce their beliefs and give them fewer opportunities to challenge them.

How can we counter this polarizing force?

Probably shouldn’t say that

Maybe you’re looking for the gender abolition crowd. Gender-neutral bathrooms are pretty nice, giving more privacy with separate toilet rooms, but I hope you’re not too shy to share a sink area with men and women alike if those are not also in each of the rooms. You would not be unwelcome there unless you start trying to make people uncomfortable.

There were a lot of rumors and speculation about this possibility last week that I think did take a lot of attention away from the Republican convention.

Third parties under the First Past the Post voting system are literally the threat to the power structure that will just keep them pushed down by the major parties.

The major parties may be afraid of sharing power now, but they are also seeing the threat of losing power completely when they can’t keep their coalitions together.

We see Democrats making a major move today with Biden stepping down from the race in order to placate parts of the party that are very unsatisfied. The threat is already more real today than it has ever been.

I think that people will realize that we are all in alignment about reforming the election system being better for the country, even to preserve a large part of the current power structure.

Then are you more aligned with the Republicans or the Democrats? Like it or not, the election system only supports two parties. That’s what we should be pushing towards changing rather than hurting ourselves.
