okay buddy

Wait, you guys are getting President’s Day off work??

you managed to piss off a huge chunk of your paper’s subscriber base without winning over anyone from the other side

This never had anything to do with winning over MAGA voters. It was only ever about Bezos fearing retaliation from a future Trump administration if he manages to win a second term.

There’s a reason people like Musk are bending over backwards to suck Trump’s dick: They’ve all seen what happened to oligarchs in other countries who didn’t bend the knee when a new dictator came to power. Putin is probably the best and most relevant recent example, but the “Saudi Arabian purge” is another, and similar things have been happening all over the world this century.

Bingo

32 posts a day is a LOT.

Honestly, that’s not even that impressive… It’s only 4 posts per hour over a 8 hour work day, which is completely achievable if Internet trolling is your hobby of choice.

What’s really impressive is the number of comments. I won’t speculate on Monk’s motives (out of fear of running afoul of this community’s rules) except to say that they seem extremely motivated to argue with anyone and everyone who posts a disagreeing comment. Their tactic is to bicker with any dissenting voices (without actually engaging with their arguments) to the point of exhaustion so that no one will bother engaging anymore — a very specific strategy I have to imagine is designed to shift the Overton window a particular way.

Fortunately, their efforts seem to have been mostly ineffective given the number of people around here who continue to call out their BS. So keep fighting the good fight, I guess!

You gotta admit, no one is better at projecting than Trump!

You know who doesn’t hate Jill Stein? David fucking Duke.

Maybe I should have read the article

In their defense, the article is extremely obnoxious to read (at least on mobile). We shouldn’t have to scroll past dozens of huge images and ‘interactive’ graphics just to get to the actual text… and that’s with an ad blocker installed — I imagine it’s even worse without one.

Lots of people are voting third party.

Looks like plenty of people disagree with you

Those are your words to another commenter, whom I think we can very safely assume is also not running for president. So why bring it up at all if it doesn’t matter?

What does that have to do with anything?

Looks like even more disagree with you.

Fun fact: for a third party candidate to qualify for ballot access in New York, they need to get 45,000 signatures (which none managed to achieve this election cycle). That means that in a state of 20 million people, no third party candidate could earn the support of just 0.225% of the population… Even Kanye got a larger percentage of the vote than that in some states!

And yet there are still people in this community trying to convince us that these candidate are running in good faith, when clearly no one actually wants them. Hmm…

Observe the slow, uninterrupted decline that starts in 2004

Ah, yes! 2004! A truly defining year for the Obama presidency when…

checks notes

…he was still the junior Senator from Illinois. Huh…

Honestly, I’d love to see games set in the Alien universe that have absolutely nothing to do with the aliens. The whole design concept for the original movie was “truckers in space”. So where’s my space trucking game?

Hear hear!

It’s time to stop taking any CEO at their word.

Edit: scratch that, the time to stop taking any CEO at their word was 100 years ago.

This community desperately needs some better moderation…

You know what’s really fucked up? How similar she looks to the young woman Giuliani tried to bang in the Borat movie.

If I had a nickel for every MAGAt that wanted to fuck their own daughter…

The media bias bot says so, so it must be true!
