Over 50%. Voter turnout is low & is higher among Republican voters (who are on average more able to vote due to economic and voter suppression factors). Not to mention that they aren’t the ones who’d be deported.

I would hope that Canada would accept refugees persecuted by an oppressive dictatorship the same as any other country. Not only do I hope that, I’m pretty sure they would.

There’s a documentary somewhere ( this might be it ) about the town of Asbest, Russia (where like all the asbestos comes from) that interviews people who live there (they mostly mine asbestos). The miners are real macho guys who think asbestos is perfectly safe. The cancer rates in Asbest are really high, unsurprisingly.

I mean she probably adds some Russian espionage

Yep. Important to not assume the election was fraudulent. But there is a case filed to interrogate some anomalous results in at least some districts. It’s definitely possible that foul play was involved.

Some reasons to suspect foul play:

Wait are you telling me I can’t shoot down an AH64 Apache attack helicopter with my AR15? I even modded it to look extra cool though

This could be a good use of AI. Since this regime is doing it, and since some of their claims are pretty unrealistic, it probably won’t be. But, ML has been used for a while to help identify new drug compounds, find interactions, etc. It could be very useful in the FDA’s work - I’m honestly surprised to hear that they’re only just now considering using it.

The Four Thieves Vinegar Collective uses some software from MIT ASKCOS that uses neural networks to help identify reactions and retrosynthesis chains to produce chemical compounds using cheap, homemade bioreactors. Famously, they are doing this to make mifepristone available for people in areas of the US without access to abortion care.

You can check it out here. It’s a good example of a very positive use-case for an AI/ML tool in medicine.

Only if it’s wheelchair accessible though

Yeah, the courts being captured is possibly the biggest problem facing the US right now. They’re what makes all the bad stuff the current regime is doing possible.

That’s a fair point. But it would need to be argued in the courts.

Irony & Stephen being an arch-ghoul notwithstanding, federal law does supercede state law (Art 6 Sec 2). Like, Nebraska couldn’t just legalize murder. They could stop enforcing that law, but it’d still be illegal and the federal gov’t could take action.

Business idea:

AI powered bot farm generates thousands of AI agents who get lonely guys to marry them, fully aware they’re bots.

Each bot is a financial and legal entity, organized as an LLC.

The botwives convince the guys to put the bots on their will.

The guys die or you have the bots divorce them and take half of their stuff.

Profit.

I thought we already knew that?

But either way, this is what we need: for the Right to balkanize and start publicly attacking each other. The Democrats are totally ineffectual at this sort of thing and the news will only report on it if the right wing does it anyway.

Edit: I got my wires crossed, we havent seen the epstein files, but we do know he [most likely] raped a 13 year old girl at an Epstein-related function https://www.courthousenews.com/rape-allegations-refiled-against-trump/

And Mike Johnson tells his son every time he cums

Add another one for the ugly fucking tailoring job on that suit.

Sleepy Trump is what we’re going with? Not Dozin’ Donald? Not Drowsy Donnie? Not Tired Trump? Not Tuckered Out Trump?

We can’t win if we can’t meme

But they weren’t for the purpose of killing. They were for the purpose of keeping people alive and contolled for forced labor. Auschwitz existed to exterminate people, so death/extermination camp is a word that conveys that meaning. Dachau largely existed to keep people alive (temporarily) for forced labor, but we wouldn’t call Dachau a plantation. It wasn’t someone’s private property with a big manor house on it and people they bought and kept for slave labor.

Plantations may be (are) romanticized in some places among some people, but that word means something specific. If we want to coin a new word without the baggage of it being romanticized, okay. But it’s going to be hard to convey that precise meaning with new words. Imo it’d be be better to call them plantations but do a better job educating people (especially white people in the south) that plantations were very fucked up and were a type of forced labor camp.

That said, labels do shape perception - especially among poorly educated people who just have a passing knowledge of the thing in question. Like if it were common to call the civil war “the war of northern aggression” like some people in the South historically have, that would be inaccurate as a label and would be misleading.
