Yeah, I think the problem was we just assumed everyone agreed with us on that. Those algorithms are real! lol. It’s apparently more and more difficult to even conceive of people that may disagree with us

Still, it’s legit surprising how many Dems assumed we’d have literally every Biden supporter voting again just because that’s what happened last time. I mean, I’m a fairly annoying nonwhite feminist and even I still think not using a white man as the candidate has been an unnecessary risk each time - especially when you consider the policies the DNC will enact are the exact same anyway.

Man… real economic change that benefits the working class would be so sick - a guy can dream

Ok, we can agree to disagree on the effectiveness of that political strategy. I’ve yet to see it succeed, personally, and I think it just kind sucks how our party is so unwilling to compromise/work with literally anyone that doesnt fully support the Democratic party’s neoliberal agenda - tax cuts for the rich and of course more bombs (except gay soldiers are also allowed to launch them at brown people)

It’s wild how y’all can’t even see it or just immediately assume I’m a trump supporter or something. lol. Reactionary politics/ideologies are so silly, imo

I was thinking of the DNC. They raised like a billion dollars in 2 months or something. I’d consider that significant political power

It’s so gross how much some/the majority of libs are enjoying shitting on small, powerless groups that didn’t support their preferred candidate

Reactionaries suck and I’d hate to date one

Hasan Poker ain’t for everyone but he’s super knowledgeable and provides great context for ongoing issues. I mainly watch on YouTube so the clips are edited down and even more context (charts, sources, etc) are added.

I mean, what did you think when you learned that the US was worried about something as basic as surgical/n95 masks during the pandemic because we simply didn’t produce any domestically?

Seems absolutely silly not to think your country should have some say in how computer processors are developed. I highly recommend the book Chip War to anyone interested in learning more.

That all said, my understanding is all chip design is dependent on design software entirely owned by US companies - so there’s that at least.

I didn’t think any of those companies did any manufacturing. Are we talking about the same thing? My understanding was there was only three names in manufacturing (the ones I mentioned)

What do you mean by it would force us not to tiptoe around China?

On that note, what do you think about Trump’s policy against Huawei when he was president? I’m inclined to think it’s a good thing despite it not being something Obama (or Clinton or Biden/Harris) would do

Is it really a good idea to let Taiwan and Samsung control all semiconductor manufacturing?

Yeah I’ll believe it when I see it

I was referring to the general support for the military industrial complex. Maybe the answer’s obvious but it feels like mainstream media has never noticed/accepted/publicized its effect on politicians and legislation in general

Well the second question’s easy. The goal always seems to be to cut all forms of federal spending

Now, the regular poor people that believe and support this stuff, no idea

That’s very interesting! I could totally see that happening

Do you have a source you can share? Only asking since I looked up “New Hampshire Democrat primary” and didn’t immediately find anything other than primary results

Oh, right. I do recall hearing something about them trying to provoke Iran. Thanks for that info

I wish they’d at least be honest about it and discuss exactly how that benefits the nation. There’s gotta be some reason. I can’t imagine it’s simply because most politicians invest in those companies, but idk maybe

I thought Iran sent those missiles in response to the attack on Hezbollah/Lebanese citizens. Had Israel attacked Iran as well? Sorry if that’s a dumb question

I mean we could start by voting in primary elections. It’s wild how many people simply ignore them. That’s like the main reason I tend to blame the American people a teeny bit more for what’s going on over the actual politicians and sheriffs we choose to elect

Why are your bars unequally divided?

It doesn’t make sense for chocolate bars to be divided into equal-sized chunks when there is so much inequality in the chocolate industry! The unequally-sized chunks of our 180g bars are a palatable way of reminding Choco Fans and Serious Friends that the profits in the chocolate industry are unequally divided.

And in case you haven’t noticed, the bottom of our bars depicts the West African coastline. The chunks just above it represent the Gulf of Guinea. From left to right, you have Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana, Togo and Benin (terribly politically incorrect, we know, but we had to combine them to create enough space for a hazelnut), Nigeria and part of Cameroon.

That’s awesome!

I don’t mean any disrespect, but the graphics look a little dated. What’s the reason for that? Is this game built on a version from the early 2000s or is it just an intentional design choice like those 2d indie games

What the hell I need to learn to shoot for?

F that! I’m following my dreams
