Cool, how industrious of them!

Ah, a distinction without a difference.

Oh, SNAP! That’s a brilliant idea! I want to do that. Let’s do that! Why haven’t we ever done that?!?!

–It just seems so democratic

The most impressive screens have super-saturated color and images that are shot by professional filmographers/photographers. It’s hard to compose a scene in real life but professionals do it every day and the TV is how many of them showcase their work. If you look hard enough and try hard enough then you too will find some really amazing and beautiful images with your eyes. -Polarizers help, too.

I’ll tell you. It starts with throwing money at ±14 other candidates nobody has ever heard of but whose policy platforms spans the spectrum between the most conservative two candidates and the most progressive. Then the party collectively staggers the primary elections to the point where the progressive candidate can lead and win most of the initial states, but when the party finally comes around to the first state of a moderate size and one of the otherwise less popular conservative candidate suddenly inches ahead, the remaining no-name candidates suddenly drop out, throw their support (and delegates) behind him in a less-than-legal exchange for cabinet positions, so before a large portion of the country even gets a chance to vote, the progressive candidate is told to pull out because there is no possible way he can win enough delegates for the nomination.

When the Democrats say ‘don’t vote 3rd party because it will split the vote’ -that’s because they’re projecting and it’s exactly what they do to ensure a more conservative candidate wins the primary.

IIRC he got canceled way back during or shortly after his reality show when he went on a racist rant over a recorded phone-call to his son who was sitting in jail, the context of which sounded very similar to a lot of Trump conservative meltdowns.

Ever since this incident when U.S. politicians collectively argued that political violence was not okay, I have thought ‘I wonder how Fred Hampton would feel about these folks denouncing political violence?’ -I admit I don’t know the answer to this question, but when I consider the specific people going around vocally denouncing political violence, I’m not so convinced that those same people don’t protest too much.
