Could just get AI to generate an image of someone setting themselves on fire. That would be on brand for the internet slacktivists.

Maybe others should just think about having basic human decency and setting themselves on fire to protest something I don't like rather than contributing to the problem.

The liberal cries and tell us to choose the lesser of two evils. The genocide is happening under Biden and Harris. Trump is the lesser evil for these Muslims.

Yea and apparently when they don't get it they goto the darkweb and buy fentanyl laced hrt that they then feel like they can't live without for mysterious reasons
I've gotten fentanyl laced thc oil. They now cut bathtub meth (all meth is shit anymore) with fentanyl.

Michigan Muslims don't like the gays, probably would exterminate them if possible, but they're a minority so ya gotta respect their barbaric need to murder homos. Hastag free palastine.

Because the PoliEra neolibs know it'll only cause a ban wave if they make the thread since all HamasEra can do is scream genocide and report.

Also because of the long legacy of British colonialism on the thoughts and beliefs of Muslims.

One thing that confuses me about the States is the party registration system for voting. Here in Canada as long as you are eligible to vote, you get a paper with multiple choices and pick one to cast your vote for. They never ask which political party you are in support of before or after voting.
I wish more people would turn out to vote. Turnout has been rather poor for the past decade here, both at the federal and provincial levels.

no, the broader read on this is "I want AI to do [hard things I don't want to do that I might otherwise have to pay for], not [things I am already skilled at]"
for example, "I want AI to repair my furnace and rotate my tires, not do art"
it's fundamentally selfish and dismissive of the impact in other industries, "that guy should be out of a job, not me"

Some regressive states have people declare a party or independent when they register to vote but other states do not. It does not require you to vote for that party.
Canada's elections are no different than the United States other than the permanent legislature elects the executive rather than the Electoral College because we have greater separation of powers since the monarch was defanged. (edit: Oh, and obviously, the US Senate is elected.)
Both countries systems were derived from the UK's and so retain those similarities (also Australia, etc.), the US's was just a little more purposeful in alteration and longer ago.
