No, but:

  1. It will build enthusiasm and make it more likely for people to actually go out and vote.

  2. It's the fucking right thing to do, and I'm glad to see a politician stand for it.

No I think it just proves this is a shit product

That was the moment I realized he was either going to be Tony Stark or Lex Luther.

And then he goes and proves me wrong by being worse than ever imaginable.

Stein refused to call Putin a war criminal, so yes. There is no anti genocide vote.

Invest in renewables?

I work for a green hydrogen production and supply company. Our financials are not amazing. If she cut a check for even a few $100k that would go a long way.

It's time to stop bringing awareness to climate change, and to actually start addressing it. If you're passionate enough to throw soup at a painting, you're passionate enough to get job training to help operate renewable energy sites.

They should be required to change their name

paid for entirely by venture capital seed funding.

And stealing from other people's works. Don't forget that part

Third parties have gotten over 5% before. How'd that go for them?

It's clear that the current third party strategy of advertising via presidential runs is an abject failure.

It depends a lot on how the pagers are distributed. Is it a batch that was carefully delivered to only Hezbollah members? Is that where all the pagers from that batch went?

It's not like the pagers are stamped with "for Hezbollah only". I'm concerned how they were all distributed.

You've proved the point then. If Cobb's strategy was followed, the Greens would be in a far better position.

You actually bring up an excellent point here -- the Green Party should be throwing everything they have at places with RCV. Yet, they're not. Those are the perfect races for them to win, and they don't give a shit.

So why are disbanding NATO and stopping aid to Ukraine even policy positions of hers? Shouldn't she be focused on ranked choice voting and healthcare instead?

 

You'd think midterms would be a great time to get your name out there and run high profile candidates to win House districts led by charlatans...

 

First off, terrible headline. The "ruled by men" is totally unnecessary and biased.

Second, there are certainly much worse events going on in the world right now. This is hardly the most important.

It's an interesting article though about how some women feel in China about government policies and how they're meeting to discuss feminism and women empowerment. It's disappointing to see that the Chinese government has adopted a similar stance to US Republicans.

 

Not much info at time of posting what prompted the man to do so

 

This article is absolutely infuriating. I'd like to say I'm surprised to see people with such vitriol, but this isn't a surprise.

 

Edit: It looks like the argument here is that the US is not calling for an instant ceasefire, but instead saying that one is very important to have. China and Russia say it should be immediate. The US also tied it to hostage talks.

Another resolution is in the works to call for an immediate ceasefire, but the US is expected to veto it because they believe it could endanger hostage talks.

 

The article has a fantastic line about how Johnson's views are so out of step, even the majority of the conservative justices on the supreme court don't champion them. He agrees with Thomas, and Thomas is exceptionally unique in just how insanely conservative he is.

As a fun bonus, the article also has quotes of him praising Trump, if you ever wanted to see the moral bankruptcy of evangelicals laid completely bare to see.

 

He still refuses to budge, even after Republicans were eviscerated on election day for abortion. They're going to keep getting hit for it until they can rein in true believers like Tuberville.

 

This is a fantastic opinion piece by Sanders that lays it out the situation before the Hamas attack, the current situation, and what should be done. He lays out several requirements for peace that aid to Israel should be contingent on. He also notes that Hamas is hurting the Palestinians, which is a detail very few mention.

He's also one of the first people I've seen try to take a stab at what a lasting solution needs to be -- two states, Netanyahu ousted, Hamas destroyed, foundations of Palestinian civil government created.

 

The article provided a good overview of the situation and firsthand accounts, plus marked up maps. The maps make it clear just how ridiculous their claims are. It's like a modern "manifest destiny" philosophy.

 

I'm rather curious to see how the EU's privacy laws are going to handle this.
