I get that and I totally agree, but I don’t understand the food of comments here arguing that there won’t be reduced turnout in the middle of a Wednesday vs on a weekend. Most people with a full time job can’t just up and leave in the middle of a weekday with less than a week of notice, especially in large states with capitals that are far away. Turnout would be much better if it was on a weekend, and anybody denying that doesn’t live in reality.
No no, it’ll be a huge turnout and if you don’t agree then you’re an idiot for thinking that any significant amount of the population works 9-5 M-F. Just look at these comments! We can’t fail, we posted, “So when is the general strike and protest?” 78 times yesterday on every even vaguely political post, so turnout will be great in the middle of the day on Wednesday. Trust fam. /s
“Lemmy, my brother, for the last two years, has just said he’s tired and wandered off for EVERY single family porn might. He’s not even masturbating with us. What do you think is wrong?”
Lol shitty style guides are redditor brain, okay. Do you also wear beanies in the summer and wax your mustache?
“SLAM”
fuck out of here with that, come on
It is, but that’s also a defining feature of the presidential system as opposed to the parliamentary system.
Hey now, be fair. Moldova has a big presence there too… proportionately.
Wait do other people really not get that this is sarcasm?
“I don’t understand why turnover is so high. Ever since COVID people just don’t have any work ethic. The lockdowns really destroyed our economy in irreparable ways. Wait no, don’t quit.”
Wow so glad this is the lesser evil I’ll have to vote for. Fuck this country man.
Huh. Maybe people think this is some kind of British imposition? But like, it’s not.
Idk why you’re being downvoted, the country chose to be The Gambia, post independence, in order to avoid confusion with Zambia. Unless this changed after the fall of Jammeh?
The part where the US isn’t THE city on the hill probably lol
Noooooo this was a uniquely American phenomenon. We definitely didn’t fare better than comparable countries, and conservatives definitely aren’t forgetting that other countries exist… again.
Yeah it is, just like all that shit about how retail stores last year having to close because of crime AS CRIME WAS FUCKING PLUMMETING
“Subset X of large group Y has committed a negligible amount of crime Y in the last generation.”
“NO YOU IDIOT, LARGE GROUP Y DOES ALL OF CRIME Y, JUST THINK!!!”
This is definitely true, but it’s not like rich people aren’t also dangerous, unhinged criminals lol
As if the deterrent effect is from the possibility of suicide by cop instead of, idk, a critical mass within a community of armed people. It’s not like around 2019/20 we saw, firsthand, that when violence against cops increased their willingness to make frivolous stops decreased. But please, continue strawmanning this as some weird scenario where people are saying that suicide by cop will stop oppression.
