apps running in the background is fine though.

if you (not you specifically but anyone reading) find this happens often enough to be debilitating you may benefit from seeing a psychiatrist for anxiety/depression medication. My wife was like that and it made an immediate difference for her.

sounds about right.

this could be very sensationalist because as far as I know, we have no idea what the absolute numbers are, the trend is measured in percentages:

Numbers represent search interest relative to the highest point on the chart for the given region and time. A value of 100 is the peak popularity for the term. A value of 50 means that the term is half as popular. A score of 0 means there was not enough data for this term.

So it’s true that the peak is today, but that could be only a few people. Considering most of October the daily number was “0” (not enough data), I’m guessing the absolute numbers are fairly low. Anyone know how many datapoints google needs to publish data on trends?

They could at least try to end corporate personhood… make it so that corporations are not protected by the 1st amendment and don’t get free speech…

You’d need a supermajority to amend the constitution, and that is completely unrealistic.

Practically speaking, what is supposed to be done about it? It’s all protected by the first amendment. Even if they were to somehow pass a new kind of “fairness” legislation in a future blue wave, the stacked SCOTUS will strike it down.

All that sounds like your subjective view not based on data. Not saying the DNC is perfect by any means, but it’s clear the economy was by far the #1 issue in this election. I mentioned exit polls earlier, and also Trump was way up compared to 2020 even in extremely rural counties. Israel, Cheney, Stein, etc have nothing to do with that.

exactly. I think whoever ended up as the D candidate was going to take the blame for the massive pandemic inflation. They were destined for failure from the beginning.

Looking at exit polls, people were far more concerned with the economy than anything else. I don’t think Israel mattered much to average people. Biden/Harris got fucked with pandemic inflation and people are too dumb to realize it had nothing to do with them. And that will be further reinforced because inflation is under control now so Trump will look great having done nothing whatsoever.

“I’m unhappy, financially so I’m going to vote for the felon, racist, sexist, fascist” still doesn’t add up.

sure it does. people are not 100% rational. they will use motivated reasoning to justify whatever they need to vote for (what they perceive to be) their best interests.
