The main subs or sublemmies or whatever they're called on here have enough users that it's a perfect alternative to Reddit.

Little niche subreddits, like my favorite gaybros and askgaybros, just a few dozen users and I'm going back to Reddit for that.

Are they supporting it so that they can gimp it?

We support the right to repair! Starting now all keycaps will be replaceable. Anything on the motherboard is off limits though or the display or the battery or the ports or the camera.

Good luck with your systemic approach.

Like I said in my original comment unless you're secretly a left-wing billionaire that is going to dump hundreds of millions of dollars into building a competing left media ecosystem then you're going to make zero progress with the systemic approach.

The only approach that will work is more people voting until the 20 to 30 million are irrelevant.

You cannot reason someone out of something he or she was not reasoned into.

I think a lot of Democrats/liberals have West Wing Syndrome where they think if they make a convincing argument in a speech or debate that the other side will then come to the light... They won't. They're either evil or stupid or a combination of both.

Interestingly the magats don't have this problem. They don't give a shit about convincing you of anything, they just want their side to win and our side to lose.

Does cutting their fleet mean they stopped operating or they reduced the size of their fleet?

One of the crashes was a car running a red light and hitting the Cruise vehicle.

I am better then people that think the world is 6000 years old or people that Biden is going to declare martial law and round up Christians and conservatives into FEMA death camps (although I'm starting to come around to this idea) or people that think Jew NWO lizard people are deploying gay chemicals via aircraft chemtrails to turn people gay to reduce the world's population.

Cruise and Waymo have self-driving cars, without safety drivers, driving around cities right now.

We know what hardware it takes - More than just cameras and some premapping is required.

I don't want to "study" or empathize with magats.

I want to belittle and (electorally) destroy them into irrelevance.

I grew up in a magat household. They're magats because they're fucking morons. I solved the mystery for you - no additional study is required.

I got in a debate once with my mom about the age of the Earth (of course she's a young Earth creationist). I brought up the speed of light - we see things that are farther than 6000 light years, so the Earth has to be more than 6000 years old. Her rebuttal: "What if the sky is like an Etch-a-Sketch that God is holding up for us to see?" How do you reason with someone that believes something like that? Do you really think I if brought up stellar parallax or spectroscopy or stellar evolution that would change her mind?

My grandma, I bought her an iPad 10 years ago so she could get on Facebook and watch YouTube and stuff. Big mistake! Now I have to hear stuff about how Hillary Clinton has been arrested and convicted by a military tribunal and is wearing an ankle bracelet and will be put in prison after the 2018 election. Adrenochrome. Comet Ping Pong. Democrats want to chop off elementary school age boys penises. Bamboo ballets. Mike Lindell. Ballots dumps. Obama controls everything. Porn in schools. Democrats are trying to make us eat bugs.

Prior to the iPad I had probably heard her mention politics like less than a handful of times in my entire life.

She wouldn't get the COVID vaccine... Even though she's 83 obese, arthritic, congestive heart failure, diabetic, and has had two previous heart attacks. Then she got COVID and almost died, was in the hospital for more than month, now on oxygen at home... STILL WON'T GET VACCINATED.

These are not people that reason or think about anything. The only way to get them on our side would be a propaganda network to compete with Sinclair, Fox, OAN, Newsmax, Hannity, Neck, Levin, Shapiro, PragerU, Crowder, Savage, Breitbart, Daily Caller, Daily Wire, Project Veritas, The Blaze, WND, Candace, Jordan Peterson, The Washington Times, etc... And then pump that down their YouTube and Facebook feeds. Unfortunately I don't know any left wing billionaires that want to create competing institutions to these things.

Not to mention the right wing message of simple solutions, zero thinking, and your prejudices are actually a good thing is hard to compete with.

I thought after 2008 that we had finally gotten over our large car addiction.

They're so addicted to SUVs now that Ford doesn't even make a car other than the Mustang. Their entire lineup is SUVs.

Housing is the thing most exploding in cost.

About half the population already owns a home so they're immune to this problem.

The other half is just moving to shittier and shittier conditions and living with roommates and family members.

Plus this is a very regional problem. Housing in shithole flyover places is still somewhat affordable.

If everything went up five times in price over the last 20 years then it might be a better argument for saying we're in a depression.

I have a picture with Joel McHale.

If Joel McHale turned out to run an international child sex trafficking ring would my picture with him indicate that I was part of the ring?

I HATE Elon, but this whole...

"See see see! There is a picture of them both at the NYC 9/11 Firefighters Fundraiser event in 2009!!! must also be a Satan worshipping child rapist/murderer."

Thing is fucking stupid.

I'm a hairy, small dick, morbidly obese, semi-virgin 35 year old guy.

Between my crippling social anxiety, zero self esteem, and OCD-ish fear that if I am near cum I'll get AIDS and die... I've only had a single sexual partner my entire life.

When I was 25 I was a 100% never been kissed virgin. I lost 75 lbs (315 to 240, currently 355), felt way better about myself, and sort of had a casual thing with a coworker where with lots of jerking and sucking, but no butt stuff because I was a scaredy cat. Then that guy moved away. I thought that he was the jumping off point to being normal, but I went back into my shell (and gained all my weight back).

I'm 35 now, certainly not getting any younger.

I finally have a real deal big boy job making adequate money.

I was thinking... Why don't I get my HPV vaccine, Hep A/C vaccine, PreP, and some Bluechew and just hire a prostitute so that I can get fucked by a human instead of a piece of plastic I sometimes stick up my butt while masturbating? I won't care what he thinks about my body because I'm literally paying him.

Then I thought - where do you even find a prostitute? There are escort sites, but they all seem to be in the city (I live in the suburbs about 25 miles away). What if I get caught and it's like the police? Do I need to rent a hotel room or have them come over my house? Can I just find a local, muscular, hot, college boy on Grindr and offer him like $500?

Maybe I should just lower my physical expectations and try to go on an actual date with someone in my age and league? How will I hide how incredibly anxious and awkward and inexperienced I am? I literally wouldn't fuck me.

Maybe I should just go to the 50+ year old guy on Grindr that's like 3000 ft away that has a bio that says he'll suck anybody. I wonder what kinds of STDs you can get from sucking dozens or hundreds of dicks?

Maybe I should get on Ozempic?

All that I know for sure is I want to do something.
