Being impeached doesnt inherently carry consequences.
If you think of it like a trial, the house delivers the guilty verdict (impeachment), and the senate determines the sentencing. The senate basically said, “yea so what? No consequences”
If the senate would do their job too, impeachment would mean something
Im thinking about getting robot legs. Its a risky procedure
95% decrease? Holy shit. Another metric that shows how shitty we are
Is this the Streisand picture? I know the Streisand effect, but forgot what it was actually about
This reminds me of how they were (are?) outraged against “Antifa.” Like, youre calling them anti-fascist, and youre saying youre against them and them against you… but you can’t connect the dots that would make you the fascists?
This was always my biggest struggle growing up in a catholic house. “He sacrificed himself to save everyone who came before and will come after.”

In all reality, that numbers way less than 1000 for strangers, and if you include anyone i know/care about, that number could be as low as 1.
Ive seen that one of the major demographics that swung the election was Latino Men, and a lot of the follow up was that there was a lot of sexism/racism in that. They couldnt fathom a black lady being president. At the time, Trump was already threatening to throw them out of the country, and they still voted for him.
Its being used for language translation too, right? That actually feels like a useful thing
Exactly. Theyre not mutually exclusive. There is a lnown issue with working class people not being able to take time off on tuesdays to go vote. If elections were saturdays, maybe there would be a better turn out.
I feel like this argument doesnt hold as much water as it used to with how easy it is to vote by mail or use early voting. At least in the 3 locations ive been for the last presidential election
From what I’ve seen (admittedly completely online anecdotes), the ICE agents flee before the local pd show up because theyre cowards
