A vote saying they won’t support the Dem ticket in November without a big change still means something, even if the race has already been called.
Everyone already knew Biden would win handily since the first primary. That’s why they voted uncommitted instead of for an alternative.
What’s the old lingers?
Real moderates are mostly just low information voters who don’t spend much time thinking about politics to develop an ideology or world view.
The generally accepted political narrative is that these sorts of voters mostly just care about the economy.
Lots of people call themselves moderates but consistently vote Democrat or Republican and just differ from their party on a couple issues.
*Edited my language to be a little fairer about that second group
If French troops were sent into Ukraine and were then hit by Russia, would that then trigger NATO agreements?
Article 6 says:
"For the purpose of Article 5, an armed attack on one or more of the Parties is deemed to include an armed attack:
on the territory of any of the Parties in Europe or North America, on the Algerian Departments of France 2, on the territory of Turkey or on the Islands under the jurisdiction of any of the Parties in the North Atlantic area north of the Tropic of Cancer; on the forces, vessels, or aircraft of any of the Parties, when in or over these territories or any other area in Europe in which occupation forces of any of the Parties were stationed on the date when the Treaty entered into force or the Mediterranean Sea or the North Atlantic area north of the Tropic of Cancer."
Aware this might be a situation where the spirit of the agreement ends up being more important than the legalese.
The community’s called work reform.
I hear you. Hope the administration hears you too, for all our sakes.
I agree there’s a problem, and I agree about supporting progressive candidates when available.
I think this is being taken as the only option mostly because a lot of strong progressive voices sat out this primary.
Fair enough, to your point about people on Lemmy planning to make mistakes in November. I suspect those people aren’t the same ones voting uncommitted in the primary, though.
I mostly see those as motivated progressives trying to raise an alarm so Dems can course correct here. If Dems listened, they might give us more ammo to persuade those Lemmy users who aren’t on board.
I’d say the idea of using the primary to voice concerns about what’s happening in Gaza is the least harmful path for people who really care about stopping fascism in both countries. Dems need to really hear that there is a problem that needs to be addressed, and voting uncommitted is literally the least you can do.
Dems stand to lose a lot of votes if they continue to be silent for the “hug Bibi” policy.
Also, sorry, but I don’t understand what alternative you’re suggesting for this course-correction. Can you clarify?
For the record, my proposal is to hash this conversation out during the primaries and then go all-hands on deck for Dems in November. Because we have to.
RomneyCare was similar to Obamacare, mostly based on an individual mandate to buy private sector plans.
If we find people who regret it, do we then need to ban it? Is there a certain threshold of regretful people we need to meet?
Do you expect a lot of people to regret something that happened to them before they were capable of forming memories?

Pretty much any Bob Marley live recording, the songs just feel like they were meant to be heard that way.
You can hear the crowd singing along, and Bob losing himself in the music.His songs feel like prayers for peace and that really comes through in the live versions.
To properly follow the rules and be specific, I’d say No Woman No Cry - Live at the Lyceum

Based on that last bit of your post, it sounds like you may actually not be that familiar with the incel community.
Short answer is that it goes much further than it seems at first glance. So,if you’re feeling unhappy about your prospects, I’d recommend looking into other communities for the sake of your mental health.
Honestly, just focusing on a hobby of some kind and making connections with the community surrounding it would be infinitely better for you.
“According to Air Canada, Moffatt never should have trusted the chatbot and the airline should not be liable for the chatbot’s misleading information because Air Canada essentially argued that “the chatbot is a separate legal entity that is responsible for its own actions,” a court order said.”
Can you imagine the hellscape we’d be living in if precedent went the other way? Companies could just run every unsavory decision through some machine learning system and then wash their hands of it afterwards.
“Oh you were illegally fired? Sorry, that decision came from the Overmind, not from us.”
Meat clearly isn’t gonna be a unique answer here, but it does have a weird effect on what it feels like to travel to different countries when your diet doesn’t revolve around animals.
Where other people see tons of street food and opportunities for interacting with a culture, some places mostly just feel empty.
Not meaning it in a judging way, but there are tons of places where I don’t really feel welcome.
Also how is your butthole doing, bro?
For real, doing a double take on one video can leave their shit popping up in your feed for weeks (on pretty much any social media site). Gotta be quick on the trigger to avoid that stuff
I think Obama’s personal politics were actually much more progressive than those of Biden. It’s just that his theory of governance seemed to revolve around taking the positions of moderate Republicans and then starting with those as his own position. He thought that would be taken as a meaningful step towards compromise and give him partners across the aisle.
Instead, that meant that the old moderate position became the new left position, and his opponents could move even further to the right.
At least he unintentionally provided progressives with a lesson on how not to advocate for policies going forward.
