DaemonFCschestowitz, Stallman put it a way I agree with, actually.Mar 06 05:22
DaemonFCHe calls them "Putin's forces".Mar 06 05:23
DaemonFCIt's legitimate to help them kill people who are there fighting for Putin.Mar 06 05:23
schestowitz-TR2DaemonFC: h264 is used a lot in mp4 iircMar 06 05:23
DaemonFCBut most Russians don't seem to actually like Putin. If anything, they want out of there and can't get out.Mar 06 05:23
DaemonFCAnd if they say anything they'll be shot or arrested.Mar 06 05:23
schestowitz-TR2yes, narcissist putinMar 06 05:24
schestowitz-TR2starving his own peopleMar 06 05:24
schestowitz-TR2and sending them to dieMar 06 05:24
DaemonFCSo even the appearance of lack of criticism isn't a gauge to judge them by because it's not a free or normal country where you can say "Fuck Biden" or something and nothing happens.Mar 06 05:24
schestowitz-TR2if they had proper elections, he'd be outMar 06 05:24
schestowitz-TR2or forced to behave better, in order to get re-electedMar 06 05:24
schestowitz-TR2DaemonFC: we have several Ukrainians and Russians hereMar 06 05:25

schestowitz-TR2who don't like Trump or even BidenMar 06 05:25
DaemonFCNavalny tried to run against Putin, and not only was he cheated, he was poisoned, and then thrown in prison.Mar 06 05:25
schestowitz-TR2I dislike Borisnaro stronglyMar 06 05:25
DaemonFCIt's likely that Navalny won and Putin rigged the election and released fake numbers and simply stayed.Mar 06 05:25
DaemonFCWhat Trump wishes he could have done.Mar 06 05:25
schestowitz-TR2never mind if the media was unfairMar 06 05:26

schestowitz-TR2Trump tried to forcibly take over more mediaMar 06 05:26
schestowitz-TR2like VoAMar 06 05:26
schestowitz-TR2I think it was spared at the endMar 06 05:26
DaemonFCYeah, it was.Mar 06 05:28
DaemonFCHe tried to appoint hundreds of people all over government on his last few days, but Biden fired them all.Mar 06 05:29
DaemonFCThe few he couldn't fired got moved to positions where they'll never see anything that could damage Biden or allow them to leak things to Trump and where they'll probably just give up and resign.Mar 06 05:29

DaemonFCschestowitz-TR2, We came inches away from a corrupt and illegal Census count too.Mar 06 05:30
DaemonFCThe career civil servants that Trump couldn't fire kept coming up with excuses not to hand over the final reports until he was gone and Biden reversed the executive order to not count immigrants.Mar 06 05:30
schestowitz-TR2like orange's wifeMar 06 05:31
DaemonFCschestowitz-TR2, So in our system, there's always 535 members of the House and Senate, and the electoral votes are that plus 3 for DC even though it has no representation.Mar 06 05:31
DaemonFCTrump figured if he didn't include immigrants in the Census, it would hurt blue states more than red states, and the balance of power in the House and in the electoral vote count would shift to red states.Mar 06 05:32
DaemonFCAllowing them to pick up, oh, maybe 15-20 House seats and electoral votes that they shouldn't have.Mar 06 05:32
DaemonFCSo it was a pretty naked power grab to get Republicans more power in the federal government and make it nearly impossible for Democrats to win the House of Representatives or the Presidency.Mar 06 05:33
DaemonFCTheir other longstanding goal is to repeal the 17th amendment and kick US Senate elections to state legislatures.Mar 06 05:33
DaemonFCIf that happened, Republicans could appoint 54-55 Senators and they'd never lose control of the Senate.Mar 06 05:34
DaemonFCBut that will be harder, because you have to get 38 states to ratify it as well as 3/5ths of each chamber of Congress to send it to the states.Mar 06 05:34
DaemonFCThey'd be able to do considerable damage just by rigging the Census.Mar 06 05:35
DaemonFCSince the Senate favors the Republican Party slightly even with popular vote.Mar 06 05:35
DaemonFCThey figured that they could rig the Senate, seize power, and just spend all of the years that they had 51 votes (having repealed the filibuster) appointing judges and federal bureaucrats to dismantle the regulatory state and impose their court rulings on us.Mar 06 05:36
DaemonFCAs long as they never lose the White House (because of the fake Census) they have all the time in the world to tear down everything.Mar 06 05:36
DaemonFCAnd we could get there yet.Mar 06 05:38
DaemonFCWe were just spared this cycle from having a completely fabricated Census that lets them do that.Mar 06 05:38
DaemonFCThere's a process where cities and states can have the Census correct counting errors, but it doesn't change how many House seats or electoral votes they have that cycle.Mar 06 05:40
DaemonFCBut it does change how much money they get from Congress for population-funded programs, and they could potentially sue their state legislature and demand a redistricting based on the new numbers.Mar 06 05:41
DaemonFCSo it would actually be possible to gerrymander Illinois a little more.Mar 06 05:42
DaemonFCThe large cities could all get together and initiate the updated count process.Mar 06 05:42
DaemonFCThen when it turns out there's more people living up here than were counted last time, the state legislature could tweak the maps saying they have to under "One Person, One Vote", and it would be legal.Mar 06 05:42
DaemonFCThey probably wouldn't end up getting to make major changes, but they could put a couple of districts a little further from reach of the Republicans.Mar 06 05:43

DaemonFC"For example, when the Pennsylvania Attorney General sued a company that did hundreds of rent-to-own contracts in that state, it discovered that only 2% of buyers succeeded in obtaining the deed for the propert, signifying that they were now homeowners."Mar 06 22:43
DaemonFCI wonder how many people who get a 30 year mortgage lose the house.Mar 06 22:43
DaemonFCThe article provides nothing to compare this to.Mar 06 22:43
DaemonFC" Investors used contract sales to sell properties at inflated prices with high interest rates to people who could not get a conventional mortgage."Mar 06 22:45
DaemonFCYeah, mom and Dave (idiot #3) got a house on a contract agreement because with six figures a year between them they couldn't come up with $11,500 to buy a house in bad condition.Mar 06 22:45
DaemonFCSo they signed the agreement at what turned out to be 12% interest and mom put a bunch of money into fixing the house and lost it to Dave in the divorce (second house she paid to fix up and then lost to an ex-husband).Mar 06 22:46
DaemonFCMeanwhile, they were paying rent on top of that and she couldn't get him to fix the new house fast enough to move into, so that went on for 6 months before they had to move in and do the rest later because they were out of money.Mar 06 22:47
