I see, thanks for the explanation.

I take it there’s not an app that just shows the full fediverse?

Scotland/Ireland doesn’t seem to be shifting right! Not like elsewhere anyway.

We have a weird dynamic in Glasgow where even our football hooligans are pro-Palestine and even showed up anti-blm marches (and chased them away).

Several unis here, lots of Serbians, Italians, Spaniards in the faculty and is more diverse than many of the English towns that rioted.

No riots here, we were doing this instead.

Pay will probably be shite comparatively and the weather is miserable but can’t fault it otherwise

Took me a while but I found what I was thinking of.

It was the Fired FEC head

But it wasn't because she was fired they didn't go forward, it's because the board is 3/3 dem/rep so a republican would need to 'flip'

Asked by Alicia Menendez, "What is most alarming to you?" she replied, "Well, I can't talk about anything that would be currently before the commission by law, complaints that are filed and any investigatory action remains confidential until the cases are closed."

She then continued. "But I can tell you that in the past we have had 63 separate complaints filed against the president or his political committees –– and not all complaints are well-founded not all complaints are worth the agency's time to pursue. But our nonpartisan professional staff has advocated that we pursue 31 of those cases and, in not a single one, did we get four votes to move forward."

This is one of the things they talked about in the election interference hearings in December too

“Almost every matter that the FEC has not pursued is associated with the former president [Trump]” (Rep Torres, about 57minutes in)

Storage medium? What are you on about? You can prune blockchains and do things like demurrage to reduce bloat.

But either way it’s a weird critique. Bitcoin getting bigger makes it harder to sync clients but it’s not gonna consume all the worlds storage that doesn’t make sense.

They were rigging it via voter suppression and fighting it in court so they must think it relevant enough to involve themselves in anyway

They did do a variety of things.

  • limited the dems to 45% on the tabulators after 500 votes
  • suppressed enough votes that they would’ve lost if it weren’t for the massive voter purges and other legislation they shoved through
  • algorithmically induced psychosis in 20% the population

If any one of these had failed they would’ve lost.

It’s not really denialism when there’s evidence. Verify the evidence.

It’s only denialism when it’s irrational and not based on coherent arguments. (Ie. Trump in 2020)

[–] auraithx@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 4 days ago

💯

Verifying the vote isn’t denialism. The evidence is compelling and coherent. Too many whiners not enough debunkers!

Of course it’d be both sides. They use projection to shield themselves. So if they were going to steal an election, they’d accuse the dems of doing it first.

This isn’t conscious but they think everyone thinks like them so if they’re trying to steal the election obviously the dems are too.

I don’t think that’s the right bit. He said something like ‘and Elon knows those computers so well, those tabulators, and then we won PA’
