It's Anker, not Ankler. Your link goes to a domain squatting page.

Every single thing, even the few missions that recommend playing in multiplayer, can be done solo.

No we haven't. The NYPD has, but ACAB is true everywhere, so that's no surprise.

I don't think you'll get prosecuted. I think you'll get dead. Pigs have never cared about due process, and they love to act aggrieved and play the victim to further justify their inexcusable brutality.

I've never understood xtian and xmas. Jeebus supposedly got nailed to what they call a cross, but was really a lowercase t. The abbreviations that would make sense to me would be tian and tmas. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Pretty sure that's the exact premise of a Black Mirror episode.

I'm one of like 5 people on the planet who still uses his minidisc player. I've bought some of the blank minidiscs Sony was still making. Seeing them finally end production hurts. I have a bunch of minidiscs already, but I feel like I should stock up before prices go nuts.

You're absolutely right. While he's got a sizable chunk of lower income people voting for him, he's also got a huge amount of people with money or privilege voting for him so that they can continue to be shitty to other people. A disturbingly large segment of the country wants this, regardless of class or economic status. And some of them when they inevitably get, I won't feel bad for them at all. I'll reserve that for the rest of us, who tried to make things better for everyone.

These guys need to get the fuck out of here with this rude awakening and economic anxiety bullshit. I don't really want to hear about any soft peddling of these obvious racist/sexist/other hateful driven motivation voters. Last time The Fanta Menace won, there were all these articles about low income voters (of which I'm one, but I had the good sense not to vote for a flaming pile of garbage) voting for him because of "economic anxiety" and not that he appealed to their base desires to hurt any non straight, white, or male group they didn't like.

This isn't our first rodeo with this fat piece of shit. We all saw what he did before. How can you be "rudely awakened" when you vote for someone whose behavior you're fully aware of? They saw what happened last time and his main campaign promise was, "More of that, but cranked up to 11." Fuck that noise. They are getting exactly what they voted for, with full knowledge of the outcome. Unfortunately, the rest of us are also getting that and it's gonna be bad.

The article talks about him playing favorites, which of course he will, but I think they give him too much credit when it comes to sparing his supporters. He didn't have any problems breaking up families of his supporters last time when one or more of them was undocumented and got swept up in an ICE raid. He'll do what he wants, tempered only by what his handlers want, and that means some notable percentage of his supporters are gonna see some negative effects... Which is exactly what happened last time. They were all shocked Pikachu face then, and amazingly we're now supposed to what, feel bad about them learning nothing and being shocked Pikachu face again after they put themselves in the same situation again? The hell with that.

You know, I wasn't rude to you, so there isn't any reason for your condescending tone.

The people that always stay home weren't gonna come out. They never do. 2020 is said to have had historic levels of turnout and it had 2/3rds of eligible voters coming out to vote. I wouldn't count on that last third who always sits out to suddenly realize they're screwing themselves and everyone else. I still don't know where the 10 million number is coming from. Who's projections and statistics? Would it be the same people who projected that despite a close race, Harris would be the likely winner? I'm not sure they're all that credible at the moment. I think people shifted right and I think that sucks a lot. I wish I had a solution, but I don't. There were any number of good reasons to come out and vote for Harris, or at least against FatPutin, but here we are.

Where did you get that 11 million number? Vote totals so far are a little more than 5 million short of 2020. Everyone keeps talking about 11 million, 15 million, 20 million people who stayed home and I think it's frankly a way to cope with the hard and gross truth that the country shifted right. Some people stayed home this year, but from all the sources I can see, it's nowhere near 11 million, and the fascist candidate increasing his vote totals every year is very alarming. I get people who don't want to face that. It's scary as hell, especially if you're in an out group. In my traditionally deeply blue state, the split gap between Harris and The Fanta Menace was like 55/45. That's WAY too close for comfort and while people staying home is a problem, it's not the main problem this time around.
