Hit them again, and harder this time.

DON’T support fascist politicians if you actually value the privacy of yourself and others.

Oh wait, that was them.

Nice tautology. You can’t justify not voting by of the predictably bad results of not voting.

You and anyone else that doesn’t think Oz would have been significantly worse, or thinks it “doesn’t affect them”, is naive or arguing in bad faith. The better option can suck, but both-sidesing the situation to excuse not voting at all serves nobody but the worse option.

To pull from the quote from the OP:

But in any and every contested race, as my mom Mary Morello always said, we have to fight the fascist every which way we can, recognizing that even if there’s but an inch of difference between two candidates, there are a lot of vulnerable people who could be greatly harmed in that inch. So vote your ass off…

There is no “folding” in life. There is no walking away. You can abstain from giving specific input, but you are still subject to and share responsibility for the results. What is needed is people that push to have the best possible choice for a given election and will vote for the best choice available. Doing only one is not enough.

It is and it doesn’t. The bit is Fry telling someone to stop selling him on something and giving them money blindly, which isn’t what’s happening in the article at all. Flipped, it’s someone paying another to shut up, which fits perfectly and is something an editor should be able to figure out.

Take Our Money and Shut Up

Ftfy.

I swear editors aren’t even trying these days.

The math is always easy on these things - the millions paid to fight progress is always a fraction of what they expect to lose if it passes, making it simple to know why they oppose these changes instead of the nonsense propaganda they spread.

Nah, he was a shit person beforehand, too. He just lied.

Imagine if it was a human brain.

Good point up until every available device has that “feature”. Eventually diy is the only way to go.

RW Media: “These radical socialists are dangerous!!1”
Socialists agree that they’re radicals and that’s good
RW Media: “They’re trying to pretend they’re radicals and that’s dangerous!1!”

Also, “Jesus and I are radicals” right into “Words don’t just mean what you say they mean” is just too much.

If you ignore the word two after that maybe.

Means they think it’ll cost more than they’re spending to prevent it.

Adding context, the nearly-perfect-marks midterm was a take-home exam. Not that chatbots aren’t a big problem in schools right now, but this same thing would’ve happened 15 years ago.
