The courts have prepared for expedited process for election cases, shortening deadlines and speeding up cases, so hopefully it should cut short legal schenanigans, and actually resolve shit wayyy before certification deadlines

Europe hasn’t politically recovered from the last few refugee crises, nor have national collectives been able to properly integrate or adjust to the fact they’re there, it’s been ran as a pressure point, and adding even more pressure will certainly enable those politicians to hit this button with greater effect.

I don’t fucking understand why no European leader is looking at what Israel is doing with realpolitik and go “why the fuck are you creating another migrant crisis”, unless that is exactly what they want, to get power for themselves. Urgh.

Sorry to jump in on an unrelated thread; that last reply you made to me (about your tally) is under a post that has now been deleted. You mentioned you’re gonna make a final tally and a mega thread on election day; will those be in politics@lemmy.world?

Just confirming here, since I don’t wanna touch the ghost reply in my inbox, since lemmy doesn’t seem to like that situation very much

Omg thanks for the update on this, I bookmarked the last version, and tbh now I’m just inclined to follow your analysis, since then I can compare it to election-day counting performance and see what I can hope for, kinda cutting through the noise

PA is the kingmaker here, plus another state, and that’s what imma focus on if imma doomscroll/look, cuz holy fuck this election is raising my blood pressure

…The Guardian?

The fact that the guardian is now at a point where they’re calling out their lies should be a cause of concern imo, if other news outlets are not doing it, since the guardian is often anything but fact-checkers or “on the right side” of a majority of these kinds of stories

It’s very close to the election, but this is a good filing wrt what is actually happening here, shame that it’ll likely only matter when Harris gets in office, since trump can just throw it out if he becomes president, and it’ll not matter anymore then.

Huh what

What’s the reference of this

I’m sorry, why are we trying to reenact revelations?

What is your point?

Anti-adblocker paywall, does anyone have a copy-paste? Or a TLDR?

It’s more explicit, on TV, in sound-bite chunks.

In a world where everything revolves around pushing the most information inside a short attention span, this can matter a lot. A clip can go viral, become a meme, become repeated and played again and again, it doesn’t matter what someone did over a few months if everything they hear about that person is what they did in a couple of seconds.

Having trump calling someone the N-word, on video, would become a lightning rod of confirmation that people can shove into others’ faces, and show them that “do you want to vote for this man”? It doesn’t take 1 hour of explanation, it takes 10 seconds of a sideline TikTok video.

I hate this image

Good job

This could turn around any moment though, currently the spotlight is on Harris because she’s new to the race, and we’re seeing the GOP reactions. But once the GOP gets their members properly turned around to a strategy, probably in a month, they’ll have found something to talk about that brings trump in the spotlight again.
