  • The next candidate that pledges to adopt Bernie’s vision will easily win against whoever their opponent happens to be. That’s all Democrats ever have to do.

    Trump won by swaying Tech Billionaires and campaigning directly to citizens on the platforms they use the most about the issues they cared about. As much as I hate it, it was effective af.

    Assuming we ever have a legit election again, we need to look beyond the two party system, otherwise we’re just further dooming ourselves.




  • It’s a superposition. He’s president when the President does something largely accepted as “good” while also not being President when the President does something largely accepted as “bad”.

    This transcends all known perceptions of cause/effect to ensure their sand-based castle continues to stand. That’s what they mean by 4D Chess.

    Dude Trump isn’t even in office yet lol.

    Your logic as viewed by everyone else:

    “If it’s good, Trump did it. If it’s bad, it’s Biden’s fault.”

    PLEASE tell me you’re thinking it through more than this, then let’s have a dialogue about that thought process because I am incredibly curious how you got there.

    Kool aid comes in multiple colors.



  • Regardless of raw GDP per capita there are wealthier nations who could do this. Norway’s positioning to do so smoothly doesn’t invalidate the decision itself.

    Again, if the rest of the world curbed our addiction to fossil fuels they wouldn’t sell as much oil. But as long as they are I’m ok with them using the profits for stuff like this.

    Using profits derived from fossil fuels to transition to cleaner technology is exactly what we should be doing.


  • There are multiple kinds, but that’s not the important part here.

    Much of the world does not have the infrastructure to allow for most people to charge their car at home at all is what I meant to say, apartments are a great example. Unfortunately public transit in my area is also not great, so a car is required to do much of anything.

    If you can’t go anywhere without a car and you can’t charge your car at home, it becomes difficult to justify an EV. But that’s not the EV’s fault, that’s the fault of our infrastructure failing to keep up.

    Ideally public transit would be the solution, but some places aren’t likely to see improvements to that for a while.
