Because that's not the reality or the America that we live in. Every time a truly leftist candidate tries to run, they get slapped down by the majority of the DNC's voting base.
This is a center-right, Pro-Capitalist country with a center-right, pro-capitalist population. You don't have to like it, I certainly don't, but that's the reality.
Without ranked choice voting, there is no way in hell an actual leftist will ever appear anywhere on a presidential ballot.
So hold your nose, put on your big boy pants, and vote for the lesser of two evils with the rest of us, because if you don't the fucking Nazis will win again.

It's disgusting. When my son was very young, my wife and I struggled to make ends meet, and got behind on his school lunch payments (I still can't believe that's even a thing). The lunch lady at his school would lecture him about how much we owed, and how he shouldn't get to eat for free just because we were lazy or whatever. He'd come home thinking he was in trouble. America hates poor people.

Short for "boondocks," which just means out in a rural area (or in this case, the far end of the parking lot).
I'm too lazy to look up the etymology though.

Why would they post it to the dark web? The whole point of terrorism is to be as visible as possible. When terrorist groups claim responsibility for things they want it to show up on every media outlet, not some post on onionztftu478dy4zzs.darksite that nobody will ever see or be able to verify.
They contact news agencies directly for that shit.

My personal opinion, but dissociatives suck. They're not fun, you're not going to learn or gain anything from it or grow in any way, you'll just be unable to move and have extremely unpleasant hallucinations for a few hours.
Did that shit exactly once, thought I was a fucking boat for 3 hours, really wanted to stop being a boat and couldn't.
You do you, but honestly just get an actual psychedelic. Mushrooms have never let me down.

This is a deeply unpopular take but it's the correct one. I caucusef for Bernie in both 2016 and 2020 and the amount of Hilary/Biden supporters to Bernie supporters in both respective years was dishearteningly high.
The only people who show up for primaries and caucuses are predominantly white, Christian heterosexuals of retirement age.
They're absolutely fucking terrified of anything remotely approaching progressive policy and they'll never, ever let us run anyone who doesn't make them feel safe with all their old white money.

I'm gonna start sounding like a shill, but check out Nobara. Painless install, steam games just work out of the box.

Same. They've always done this shit, but installing windows - and then uninstalling or disabling all the cooked-in bloat and spyware - has become so ridiculously tiresome that I just said fuck it and went Linux full-time.
Every update or service pack, it starts all over. There's no such thing as a clean windows install.
Nobara was up and running in like ten minutes with no fuckery at all, and it's no nice not having to fight my OS on everything.

Nvidia drivers actually come pre-baked with the installer. When you download the iso, just make sure you get the Nvidia one. It'll install the most recent drivers for you as part of the install.
I'm running a 4060ti on mine (it was free, I know they're silly cards) with zero issues.

Seconded, runs like butter Bazzite sounds good too but I don't like the idea of an immutable distro so until/unless nobara becomes broken I'm sticking with it.

It works on multiple levels, too. Thelonius Monk's style was all about embracing dissonance, and Trump is a walking, breathing, dissonance machine. Monk's dissonance was sonic, and Trump's is cognitive, but it still works.
*Edit: it works with album titles too! "Felonious Trump: Alone in Manhattan" is fucking hilarious.

Nobara is pretty close. Glorious Eggroll's distro, comes with proton pre-installed so it can run steam games out of the box. Worth a shot, I love it

Nvidia just requires a driver install on most distros, and the newer drivers for Linux run rather well. All but one of my games runs better on Linux than on Windows (MK1 has slowdown issues on cinematics)

It's a lot easier than it used to be. I moved to Nobara (gaming-centric fedora distro that does all the install work for you) maybe two months ago and haven't been back.
While a few things have required some tweaking, almost everything runs fine out the box and I've only had to use the console to troubleshoot one issue so far.
Throw a couple distros on a thumb drive and give one a try

I mean yeah, reddit fucking sucks. That's why we're all here. Stop going there.
I can see what they were going for with it, but some more color would have been dope. The sound is phenomenal though... The drums especially really stand out on it. Great master.
Waiting until after work to give the audio book a listen, but the tracks sound phenomenal. The drums are especially rich on it, gonna be a favorite to listen to for sure.
Any other vinyl collectors out there getting their shipping confirms yet? What variants did y'all grab? Can't wait to hear how full Motor Spirit sounds on this.
This is Steely Fran and she's my favorite. 2019 Salsa Vaya on 29" tubeless tires. This is my year-round ride but spring and summer are my favorite time to ride by far.
