Most of the sd card receptacles I see are made pretty cheaply and that means harder, less pliable materials like steel will make them wear faster.
I would like for this to be viable, but right now it just seems like it would tear up your slot.
If it’s so valid then why aren’t you voting democrat?
My problem with the idea that we all ought to vote for some party whose policies and politics are far from our own in order to win isn’t that it denies the blossoming of everyone’s special flower ideas, but that it collapses all the effects of a third party into winning and losing.
I didn’t say the greens are as bad as the dems, I said they’re not the best available option any more than dems are.
Im not gonna rake you over the coals too much for it, but maybe the language around ballot access and chances isn’t the best way to pull people to your particular electoral construction given it’s the same set of ideas that supporters of the democrats are using against both of us.
Did you see how the person in question replied directly to my comment with “yep, you’re right”?
I wonder if it’s possible to be disingenuous and deadass, stone cold, half court buckets right…
The screeching communist/queer anarchist sixth international unified front with the collaborative goal of placing all liberals, conservatives and centrists in reeducation camps
That persons instance and hexbear are defederated. It’s unlikely they’re a secret hexbear user.
There are other parties that are both more left, more explicitly align with my politics and do not have a dubious history of triangulation.
The greens are not the best available option any more than the democrats are.
How does that saying go? “If ballot access were candy and nuts we’d all be eating steak!”
There are absolutely ultras in America but it’s not a position necessary to recognize that the Green Party isn’t leftist. I’d say at the very least the greens can’t be called leftist for the same reason the dubious moniker “progressive” isn’t any marker of the same: their platform is explicitly not left.
perhaps by changing the party into something entirely different from within. of course that would require a lot of work to overcome 25 years of institutional inertia, let alone a big job of completely changing the party’s strategy and operation.
i would even make the argument that the greens aren’t left, since they aren’t calling for worker control of the means of production and historically that’s been the bare minimum to be considered left but using the french seating chart hundreds of years later has its own issues.
we’re talking about 2000 because i asked about it to find out exactly how far back your belief that voters bear the responsibility for the us governments actions goes and to which particular voters it applies.
are the nader people more to blame for the recount not taking place than the many people and political actors calling for it to stop?
are the election workers responsible for the failed system they enabled through their work that literally put the wrong person in office?
i’m gonna sound like a broken record here, but:
If I were choosing the vote that makes me least responsible for the genocide in Gaza wouldn’t I choose a candidate who opposes it in both word and deed?
If what you said were true and I really was responsible for the actions of my government through my vote, wouldn’t it make sense to focus on getting voting records from diebold or whatever so you could use that information to target your vitriol at the people most responsible for this nations cruel actions?
If you really believe that people are responsible for the actions of their governments does that extend to the gore voters in Florida?
If people are responsible for the actions of their governments then what justice should be enacted to right the wrongs they bear responsibility for?
Gore would have won in Florida if there had been a full recount instead of a partial.

I’m old enough to have been able to vote in the 2000 election. Is the blood from 600 thousand Iraqis on my hands too?

I don’t think you’ve seriously thought what you’re saying through.
It’ll be my fault… why?
Will it be because I’m responsible for the choices my government makes? Wouldn’t the blood also be on the hands of the “progressive” voters? The Harris voters?
No, because the only thing elections track is approval. If genocide is too much for a person to approve of then they need to vote for a different candidate.
I guess if you don’t care who gets in then yeah.
I’m personally past just voting for the “least bad” candidate no matter how that’s determined. It’s candidates I actually want from here on out.
Just make sure it’s federated with the places that host the communities you wanna be in.
I wouldn’t worry about moderation and operations. If the people you wanna hear from and talk to are there or federated with it you’ll be fine.
If you’re comfortable pivoting to ml, there’s a good vegan community on hexbear. World preemptively defederated from that instance though, so you’d need to make an alt or change servers.
Was there a shooting with a printed firearm recently?
