I thought someone running for political office can’t be arrested or tried for a crime in case they eventually win election (at which point all possible charges are automatically dropped)?

Who will be ignored next?

I hate to say it, but there hasn’t been a time in modern history where there weren’t women and children starving while the rest of the world did nothing.

"We [the rich] are sick of financing you. You want health care? Befriend a doctor. You want entertainment? Go roll around the mud with your fellow pigs."

This is apparently not a real quote from Musk: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/musk-billionaires-tired/

Plenty to be concerned about, all the more reason it’s important to be factual.

I presume they’re too focused on their big win with how they saved Gaza to worry about anything else…

I was under the impression that JD Vance enjoys the financial support of Peter Thiel et al.?

OP is asking an interesting and important question. While I don’t claim it as definitive, there was an insightful article written in 2016 that attempted to address the question head on: How Half Of America Lost Its F**king Mind

I searched the link you posted and did not find a single mention of Kamala?

Hi!

Let me please add to the thanks and kudos for all your efforts developing a truly excellent app!

Two new features I didn’t see elsewhere (my apologies if they were already mentioned or are otherwise off base):

  1. ability to search the comments of a post you’re viewing (like “find in page” on a web browser)
  2. ability to view the relevant portion of the mod log by clicking on a comment that has been moderated (e.g., deleted)

Thanks again!

Ah. This is all a joke to you. Sorry for having taken you seriously.
