I’m not. Both are horrible and not worth my consideration.
People act like they’ve zero eyes, ears and memory and ballotpedia isn’t a thing. It’s only immoral and unethical when the other person abandons their ethics and morals.
Go away and insist the dnc nominate someone less slimy.
I can’t think of a news source that isn’t corporate garbage, other than DN and a few other indies. Our news has arguably been corporate garbage since Hearst and the Spanish-American War (you can look up his infamous quote, how Pulitzer competed with his publications, etc. For decades, I was a loyal Dem voter, even suppporting Billary; I was disgusted enough after his second term to start looking hard at Kucinich, and that election cycle, the media mentioned him once or twice in a sentence or two; compare that to the platforms they gave Killary, W and other was criminals, or the recently convicted felon.
I’ve learned to be terse in political commentary, if Eve6n commenting at all because I’m sick of being called a Russian bot. I’m not even adverse to the Russian people, nor am I willing to deny genocide, but “Joe doesn’t genocide, you Russian shill” in some form or other gets damned old. Even when he’s playing in our faces, we get told begrudgingly by very few, “he genocides less than the other guy would!” Right, like he’s so different on other policies.
We do need to demand better candidates from the DNC or better, vote for other parties candidates, but only Russian or CCP shills would dare think outside the box.
TBD idk if Oz is a hired or sock puppet account or not, but refusing to question ourselves and our parties and individual candidates doesn’t make us different, from the other side, it just rearranges deck chairs on the Titanic (nation, planet). It’s late and I’m not really interested in arguing the same tired points. Just putting it out there in wild hope someone interested in hearing actually will consider it.
Whatever works! I’m ok with this and it made me smile, in a good way. Thanks op.

Might be a carbon and unwanted other animal species issues. Bugs, small mammals, and predators thereof. Compost is great but it’s still producing by-products. If distribution and politics could be solved (probably politics is the main barrier in distribution, followed by natural disaster, many of which are the direct result of politics), perhaps these things wouldn’t be a great concern. But I’m not a scientist.
That’s what happens to us too. 😬
That’s basically what happens to all of us!
Worse, a significant portion of American voters will vote for him again.

3·2 years agoAlphabet is a huge supporter of Israel, and Google employees were fired for making their displeasure known for Google’s uncritical support of a genocidal, illegally occupying nation state. Not surprising, to me.
