  • You make no sense.

    My point: The US is not ready fir a woman president and won’t elect one. Dems need to stop running women.

    Your Point (apparently): Science says voters don’t care if the candidate is male or female.

    Let’s test your theory in the laboratory of life. To be correct by your measure the US should have around a 50% male/female ratio, we will say 40/60 proves it as well.

    There have been 45 people elected to the 60 US presidential terms.

    Let’s look at the elected presidents. By your measure, should it not matter to voters, we should have had 20-23 women as president. We should also have 40-50% women in Congress, the House, and Senate. Let’s check those numbers …

    of US presidents in history: None

    Women in politics is currently the highest it has ever been. The numbers are 28% in Congress, 29% in the House and 25% in the Senate.

    Hmmm … it looks like there is a substantial difference in how voters feel.

    This is the part where you throw a fit and start name calling.



  • It’s not just Kamala Harris, it is democrats in general. I get that they want the first woman president … but its not going to happen in this political environment. Many Hatian immigrants that voted for Trump just because they don’t think a woman can be president. Copy that … Trump said these people are eating cats and they still voted for him. Hispanics? News flash, they are predominantly Catholic … so Pro Choice doesn’t go over well for them. Then people got angry because Kamala skipped the whole nomination prosses. Stuff like this is why she lost. Biden should have ran, then resigned after he beat Trump again.

    Yep, those things were so rarely used … sure. You are forgetting that 99% of people knew nothing about computers when this stuff came out, but people made themselves learn. It’s like comparing Reddit and Twitter to a federated alternative.

    Also, something like geocities could easily make a comeback if the damn corporations would stop throwing dozens of pop-ups, banners, and sidescrolls on everything.





  • Go full auto in a stadium and it will pull up and you will shoot the ceiling, or it will pull down and you will shoot the ground and maybe your leg. You might get lucky and it will lurch to the right, you will either fight it to get it back to the center or let it spin you like a top. By the time you have fought the autofire back to center it will have chosen a new direction to pull … good luck. You will do this 2-3 times and then the clip will be empty.

    Life is not a movie or videogame. Autofire really sucks ass unless you are an absolute pro at it and have a great deal of practice. Those who would put in that much practice with auto fire would be smart enough to realize that 3 shot bursts are way more accurate and waste far less ammo.
