Lol it's not "electoralist" to jokingly compare two presidents

Absolutely. I didn't realize how bad it was until I had some content get out of my niche and got thousands of comments on a video. People are incredibly confident in their own opinions and refuse to investigate or think twice about anything. They'll make the same comment as hundreds of other people, asking the same question that's already answered in the description. I don't know how they do it, but people legitimately say whatever comes to mind and then never ever think about it again
Jimmy pardoned draft dodgers, Joe gave clemency to a judge that was taking bribes to send children to prison.
Jimmy fought to end segregation, Joe fought to keep it.
He's still a lib, but he's one of the best libs in recent times
Realizing Santa wasn't real at 4 years old was the beginning of my radicalization. After that I believed nothing without looking it up first, which of course led me to communism. Idk how all these other contrarian fucks ended up libs
The Bentonville, Ark., chain founded by billionaire Sam Walton got its start 28 years ago by opening stores in rural towns like the 5,600-population Hearne. The 1,485-store, 32-state chain is the fastest growing retailer in the USA. K mart is its chief rival.
But it also has a reputation for hurting small-town businesses that can't match the lower prices the chain can offer due to volume buying.
The Wal-Mart effect has been so huge it's spawned the formation of consulting firms that specialize in advising small-town businesses on handling the arrival of a Wal-Mart.

This story seems to play out a lot with the US govt. Likely due to the lack of any real long-term planning.
- Oh no China is taking some of our control over X
- Do nothing for a while
- Scramble to stop China from completely taking over X
- Waste billions on propaganda, cost everyone money via tariffs, sanctions, bans, etc
- Realize it was never going to work and give up
- Do nothing for a while
- Start at step 1 again

That original video is much longer and they really do a great job explaining way more than just healthcare. I'll see if I can find it

I looked it up before making the comment and the first result said it was drowning while on duty and car wrecks off duty
I work on an app that's pretty complex and requires a lot of back and forth between devs, customers, and the people who do all the training/sales. I've had A LOT of success using numbered bullet points instead of writing normal sentences and paragraphs.
Something about the numbers makes them want to read it in order instead of skimming and it being broken down and labeled lets me respond with things like, "great, what about the 3rd bullet point?" Instead of having to repeat things. Plus most of my coworkers are in Texas so they love bullets.
And in some places they won't allow you to have your phone out at all, so you can't even look it up on the fly or keep a note on your phone. Even in states that require in person voting, sample ballots with explanations should be sent out weeks ahead
It's a joke not an essay. I just read something about Carter and it mentioned the pardon and anti-segregation, which I thought was funny in juxtaposition to the modern democratic prez. I don't want to argue, but you keep calling me a fucking lib so it's hard not to?
