Think about it this way - predators like to go where their prey is at.
It's not that, in the previous centuries the Catholic Church had a problem with pedophiles - the problem was the Church was educating a lot of kids, so if you were a pedophile, the Church was where you wanted to be if you wanted access to kids.
Today, the school system is where pedophiles are - it's not that teachers are pedophiles, but instead pedophiles seek to be teachers to gain access to kids.
Bluesky is just signaling to people, hey, if you wanna spread CP, this is where its at, so the CP creators are just naturally, willingly going over there because they know their audience.
ITs easy. STop the counts in swing states, check to see how many vote you "need" - then that number plus a few hundred arrive in a secure van in briefcases in the middle of the night.
The fewer people who see the process and in the fewer places you do it, the better, because an actual fraud scandal is game over. Have patsies who, in some cases, did get caught stopping the polls denying voters their rights to vote, can be thrown under the bus if shit goes bad in some places.
They could pull a few baby frauds off, but the 20 million voters thing, I don't think they could. Too many eyes would be on that plan - one whistleblower who leaks that plan would have way too much to gain . It wouldn't work.
No it's just Harris is exactly as bad as you think, and she repulsed millions of Democrats to either stay home, spoil their ballot, or vote R.
I think it really is that simple. Democrats can get behind Biden - he's not really that offensive, but Kamala is so bereft of competence, so obnoxious in the confidence that she deserves this, that voters were turned off completely.
Why would the democrats waste time cheating votes in... Wayne county. Inner-city counties like this were so in the bag for Democrats, the democrats could (and often do) shit directly on the city and they'd still be elected.
If people are going to cheat at this election, their plan will be same as last election.
Wait till the last hour, see which swing states need only a few votes to push you over the edge, arrive with a small official election team, kick out all the administrators, have very close to exactly the number of ballots you need to push it over, have them come back in and recount, then dip out.
this way, you minimize the impact of your cheating to reduce your chance of getting caught (only the few districts that are close need attention, and only a few piles of pre-printed ballots and small number of people are required).
Their plan will not involve widespread mass media conspiracy lying, because this involves the collaboration of thousands and thousands of people, and among there, there's one democrat who probably thinks "hey, if I leaked this, I'll be a national hero" before the Dems execute them in cold blood a la Seth Rich. They can handle one Seth Rich, but they can't handle hundreds.
If you want to cheat at the elections, you don't run around telling media outlets what the results are. If you want to cheat you tell as few people as possible, because one leak means game over. Running around with fake data submitting to media companies, assuming they will play along, and all their employees play along, is asking for failure.
Democrats are stupid, but they aren't that stupid. I buy that this was just people at the station fucking up - because it makes a lot more sense.
DAI was garbage, it was a huge departure from the tactical CRPG format of DAO and imo was unplayable trash.
It was not received as well and thus, didn't get attention, plus in 2014 when it came out, the troons were still kinda underground.
Bioware, however, at the time was fully infected (PL: I do know some people who work there, by this time, its original founders who made Baldur's Gate were gone and the place was infested with so much soy, it was actually nauseous). This wasnt because of diversity standards or DEI, this was the employees and writers at Bioware wanting to take their sexual deviance and shoehorn it in there for "acceptance". People at the time already knew Bioware games as "the games where you could fuck anyone in the game", so it didn't really raise eyebrows at the time.
Hes not a fence sitter, he's a leftoid and always has been.
Leftoids and Rightoids both highly value freedom, and sometimes they work together, but he's still a degenerate. They both hate corruption another thing he likes to rant about. The problem is people keep viewing him through this lens and thinking that because I (as a rightoid) believe in these things so must he, but alas it is not so.
I played a few years of Arknights - was pretty fun! I got tired of having to log in every day, and after being a free player for that long I had becomes so immensely powerful that the game became extremely easy.
Funny thing about it being Chinese developed and having a "Global" release outside of China. They do get JP voice actors for many of the gacha characters (operators, they're called) - and there was a specific drama surrounding one of them who had voiced an operator known as Platinum. She posted on social media how she had visited a Japanese monument commemorating some lost in WWII, and no word of a lie the second she did that, her Chinese masters cut her off 100% persona non grata. She was replaced in a matter of weeks with a new JP VA who redid every single one of Platinum's JP voice lines. [For one, Japan was pretty mean to China during those years and for two, China is extremely sensitive when it comes to image.]
Instances like this, of people working for these companies doing inocuous things that could, for example, reveal that they respect Taiwan's independence or believe Falun Gong is a healthy religion or anything like that, keep these companies from being taken too seriously. There's already many events where the censorious nature of China's massive bureaus of social control where they "shut down" any kind of negative speech about China. These events will certainly damage China's reputation and continue to do so, keeping games like this on the low key until the fateful day that the Chinese take their country back from the communists.
They capitalized on the New Media Douchebag, where it's Cool to be Negative (a trend wave they were riding from the few years prior blowout known as Angry Video Game Nerd).
People still ride this wave today. Negativity sells.
China's assault on Taiwan, if it ever happens, will be the government shutting down all seaborne freight for three weeks as they pile soldiers on to hundreds of civilian cargo ships intended to be used as transports.
This is the only way they can get the personnel required into Taiwan to invade it, a plan that is easily pre-detected, and easily countered by Taiwan.
They'll never attack, they'll just do shit like flying planes into their borders forcing scrambles. An attack would end horribly for them - and they know it.
Communism revolves around ending private property ownership. National Socialism does not. This is such a major difference between ideologies that it alone disproves your claim.
They were both command economies though. Just because one believed that the upper class was to be dismantled, and the other believed that the state should be unified with its people was different, both governments exercised complete control over their economy in the same way.
Exactly. Hype is all lower now than it used to be, Blizzard makes more money selling mounts, microtransactions and carved up pieces of software than they used to, so there's no need to run a hype machine like Blizcon anymore. They shut it down, I think on 2021 as well, because they had no releases to announce. The profit factor just isn't there.
This is why public sector unions need to be abolished.
These vampire agencies suck money out of the public employees, very rarely are able to actually protect their wages, and in the end, only want to take more taxpayer money.
Then these vampire agencies decide to back political candidates! Like, bitch, you literally work for the people! You should strive for political neutrality!
If you havent played Farming Simulator give it a try sometime - one of the older ones that go on sale dirt (haha) cheap.
It's a strangely compelling game and youll see why they do biyearly releases.
