Sorry to jump in on an unrelated thread; that last reply you made to me (about your tally) is under a post that has now been deleted. You mentioned you’re gonna make a final tally and a mega thread on election day; will those be in politics@lemmy.world?
Just confirming here, since I don’t wanna touch the ghost reply in my inbox, since lemmy doesn’t seem to like that situation very much
Omg thanks for the update on this, I bookmarked the last version, and tbh now I’m just inclined to follow your analysis, since then I can compare it to election-day counting performance and see what I can hope for, kinda cutting through the noise
PA is the kingmaker here, plus another state, and that’s what imma focus on if imma doomscroll/look, cuz holy fuck this election is raising my blood pressure
…The Guardian?
The fact that the guardian is now at a point where they’re calling out their lies should be a cause of concern imo, if other news outlets are not doing it, since the guardian is often anything but fact-checkers or “on the right side” of a majority of these kinds of stories
That wouldn’t be a ring on a hand that they’re kissing
It’s very close to the election, but this is a good filing wrt what is actually happening here, shame that it’ll likely only matter when Harris gets in office, since trump can just throw it out if he becomes president, and it’ll not matter anymore then.
I’m sorry, why are we trying to reenact revelations?
I might not be getting it, but why does a theme of trees/nature specifically counter the MAGA hat like that?
Until corporations realise they can cheat and change the game by bribing politicians to tip the scales in their favour.
Business exists only for one thing; exploiting systems, even if that means meta-exploitation, since that’s the highest form of exploitation, and the inevitable endgame.
Anti-adblocker paywall, does anyone have a copy-paste? Or a TLDR?
It’s more explicit, on TV, in sound-bite chunks.
In a world where everything revolves around pushing the most information inside a short attention span, this can matter a lot. A clip can go viral, become a meme, become repeated and played again and again, it doesn’t matter what someone did over a few months if everything they hear about that person is what they did in a couple of seconds.
Having trump calling someone the N-word, on video, would become a lightning rod of confirmation that people can shove into others’ faces, and show them that “do you want to vote for this man”? It doesn’t take 1 hour of explanation, it takes 10 seconds of a sideline TikTok video.
I hate this image
Good job
This could turn around any moment though, currently the spotlight is on Harris because she’s new to the race, and we’re seeing the GOP reactions. But once the GOP gets their members properly turned around to a strategy, probably in a month, they’ll have found something to talk about that brings trump in the spotlight again.
The courts have prepared for expedited process for election cases, shortening deadlines and speeding up cases, so hopefully it should cut short legal schenanigans, and actually resolve shit wayyy before certification deadlines
