I want to get through to him but I am getting stuck.
Why do you care about how they vote? It literally doesn’t matter.
Find it pretty funny how electoralist brainworms have infected even socialist Americans to the point that they’d think convincing someone not to vote is a useful course of action.
Just laugh and ignore him honestly. Or go vote to better maintain a friendship. Or lie about it. Again it simply doesn’t matter.
Both sides of the American political system have known that for decades.
12·2 years agoI saw pro-Palestine protesters last time I was in Japan, nothing pro-Israel.
0·2 years agoBut politically why would China suddenly reverse their very strict anti-drug policy? If anything it’s been trending stricter over the past decade, an about-turn would just be odd.
Don’t see it in the near future, what would the incentive be?
Reddit discourse is always dogshit. My biggest issue is the anti-women ranting over Alicent’s actions in the final episode, complete lack of media literacy from the internet public.
6·2 years agoHis Dad was, but fell out of favor. Xi grew up in a cave and struggled to join the party.
His later political career almost certainly benefitted from his family connections (after his father was rehabilitated) but he’d also experienced real working-class struggle during childhood.
Feels potentially real to me, corporations love performative allyship, just look at the attempted cooption of pride. I could absolutely see a company prioritising queer hires (in certain industries.)
How much have you heard Corbyn’s voice in Parliament since 2019? No one listens to backbenchers.
No party that wins under FPTP is ever gonna get rid of FPTP, and no one that loses under FPTP will ever have the power to get rid of FPTP.
Yeah, a simple majority is all-powerful in British politics, anything more constitutionally means nothing. The only real value of a larger majority is limiting rebellious fringes of the party from blocking legislation.
Binface is on the right, on the left is a Monster Raving Looney with a puppet.
I hope Starmer’s not allowed to forget that Corbyn got more national votes than him, twice!
Oh no doubt the biggest factor was the undermining by his own party and the media, but his nuclear policy didn’t help. Thankfully I don’t think it’s that big an issue, but it’s an easy card to get right so it annoys me when it’s got wrong.
Let the hogs bray about imaginary geopolitics, I say. I’d just rather our nicer socdems (Corbyn) didn’t shoot themselves in the feet over principles that don’t really matter in practice.
