I also have family who support him. It is the worst feeling seeing people we respect (or at least had respected) turn into Trump sycophants simply because of identity politics and hatred of anyone who isn’t them.
It shows who they have been, this whole time. And it’s like being shot in the heart.
Nothing will turn his supporters. They already sold any shred of intelligence they may have had by simply supporting him. They know exactly who and what he is — and they love him for it.
Yes. And they didn’t not endorse Trump, as well. Which is the whole point here. They are laying down their arms just in case the wannabe authoritarian fascist dictator happens to win.
And the one fighting chance, outside of voting, and taking up arms, is a free press. Benjamin Franklin knew this and used it to its fullest capacity. And that is what is dying — without a free press, the vote is then in danger because any semblance of truth is already dead.
Then what are we left with?
Guns. And death.
And guess who benefits from that?
Good news is that he’ll be quite dead soon from all the fast food and his old age. I would piss on his grave if I could.
Anyone who still uses Twitter either condones what Musk has done and is doing, or is completely oblivious.
I long for the day it dies the death it deserves and Musk is left holding the bag having to pay all the debt. If only he’d be forced to do that, but like all rich assholes, he’ll get out of it somehow.
Policies that have been in place since Reagan, but sure, let’s land it all on Kamala Harris, right this moment.
I’m sure it has nothing to do with sowing discord and divisiveness instead of dealing with the actual immediate threat — a self-admitted wanna-be dictator with a sycophantic Supreme Court and nothing to stop him from immediately ruining the country.
If Trump gets in, it’s because of the immensely ill-informed, willfully ignorant, or havoc-wreaking/rapacious voters, not because Kamala wasn’t raked over the coals.
Keep trying this bullshit, I’m sure it’ll work on some.
His foreign policy of “Fuck you unless you pay us more” is preferable?
Also, her name is spelled Kamala and I’d wager you know that.
But thanks for trying.
Making this election about this one issue is exactly what Trump (and his ilk and foreign supporters) wants. People are falling for it again just like they did in 2016.
If you want everything to burn, and the US to cease being a country, then by all means, vote for Trump and fuck over the rest of us who are actually reasonable people who would want reasonable solutions to a wide variety of issues.
You know damn well how ridiculous that sounds. And if this is the answer to removing Copilot, no thanks. Linux works perfectly fine for me and my gaming needs.
Damn good point! I feel the same way about CEOs as of late and how they think AI is going to solve everything, even problems they invent just to say they’re using AI.
In my experience, as a 25-year developer in mostly OOP languages and frameworks, is that people who attack OOP usually don’t really understand it and its usefulness.
And to be fair as it relates to attacking languages or language concepts, I attacked JavaScript without fully understanding it, many years ago. I now understand it more than I ever have in the past and it has some good qualities.
So these days it’s no longer the languages or language concepts I take issue with (though I’ll joke about JavaScript from time to time). It’s the developers who misuse or misunderstand the languages or concepts that irk me. And especially the developers who think being lazy is a virtue.
Literally nothing is disqualifying for his supporters. This is what they want and believe. This is what a lack of proper critical-thinking-based education wreaks.
If Kamala wins, and the house gets Democratic control, this nightmare, for now at least, will be over, despite any threats Trump and his ilk will lob. If either of those turn out the other way, I do not expect this will end well.
