Democrats Introduce Bill To Permanently Codify Massive Fraud Into All Future Elections [00:14] CrystalMath another reason to vote for Trump in 2020 was to stop the expansion of voting by mail, which is extremely bad, i cannot even stress how important it is to ban all non-in-person voting [00:14] CrystalMath and with in person voting, there must be tight control over what techology the person brings in [00:14] CrystalMath no cameras, no microphones, no speakers, no devices, however small, that could act as either of those things [00:15] CrystalMath it needs to be directly brain-to-paper [00:15] CrystalMath and paper counting [00:15] schestowitz no [00:15] schestowitz he did not seek to stop it because "election fraud" [00:15] schestowitz but because he knew paper voters over mail would vote D [00:15] CrystalMath yeah i know, it's just that THIS wouldn't be happening [00:15] schestowitz they surveyed it [00:15] vZS1_2 Some people can only vote by mail. They need to work on polling day. [00:15] schestowitz so he knew he could only win by voting suppression [00:15] CrystalMath but i'm sure that if Trump won he could do nothing [00:16] CrystalMath vZS1_2: make it sunday always [00:16] vZS1_2 People work on Sundays [00:16] CrystalMath and make it a non-working day for all [00:16] CrystalMath national holiday :P [00:16] schestowitz bbl [00:16] CrystalMath (in germany that extra step is not required as working on sunday is banned) [00:16] XRevan86 CrystalMath: Trump is the least "big picture" person to enter big politics, he doesn't actually care. [00:17] CrystalMath i know, but this would be delayed by another 4 years [00:17] CrystalMath hence why i said "stop the expansion", not "reverse" [00:17] CrystalMath because if Trump won he would never give it a moment's thought [00:17] CrystalMath he would just continue blundering [00:18] techrights-bot org [00:19] techrights-bot This service is maintained by the Federated Networks Association [00:19] techrights-bot Games: Cyber Shadow, Ova Magica, Plex Arcade Flunks http://www.tuxmachines.org/node/146931 #GNU #Linux #TuxMachines [00:19] -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.tuxmachines.org | Games: Cyber Shadow, Ova Magica, Plex Arcade Flunks | Tux Machines [00:20] *psymin (~psymin@fsf/member/psymin) has joined #techrights [00:21] CrystalMath this bill is already enough to turn america into a dictatorship [00:21] XRevan86 CrystalMath: You can't fix politics with bad politicians.

What it does is forces the creditor to ask security verification, which usually means calling you back at the number listed on the alert to verify they are really speaking with you or requesting copies of your Social Security card [16:26] DaemonFC[m] and state ID through the mail along with a reference number. [16:27] DaemonFC[m] If a creditor ignores a fraud alert and issues credit in your name anyway, they're going to be responsible for it and may end up eating the loss, so they all do something to verify if it's you or not.

That would put us well ahead of where we were going previously, where I guessed that even with 30 or 40% refusing them it would take until July to get through the 65+ and essential workers group. [16:30] DaemonFC[m] iirc, mjg59 more or less supported the Billshit plan that Bill Gate put out through his mouth piece, the WHO. [16:31] DaemonFC[m] Which is, unfortunately, what most states, including Illinois, have chosen, which has caused severe administrative dysfunction and vaccination throttling. [16:32] DaemonFC[m] The ones who ignored the CDC/WHO guidelines and made the available doses first come, first serve, for anyone over 65, have done a much better job. [16:32] DaemonFC[m] The states like Illinois, California, and New York are bashing the federal government for not sending them doses when they're only using like 40% of the doses. [16:33] DaemonFC[m] Meanwhile, many states that ignored the plan and did 65+ have gotten nearly 90% of their allocation administered.

[16:53] DaemonFC[m] We find ourselves in a situation where immigration is necessary for the economy to continue again. The US is experiencing negative population growth now, and that's the time where loosening restrictions on immigration makes sense. But the blowback mostly comes from citizens who are in your country and aren't doing a hell of a lot except taking up space.

[17:01] DaemonFC[m] I'm surprised that any Navalny supporters won local elections in Russia. [17:02] DaemonFC[m] Aren't they completely rigged from the top down? How did they win any elections? [17:02] XRevan86 DaemonFC[m]: They're not as rigged as in Belarus' [17:03] DaemonFC[m] In the US, I wouldn't say we have "rigged" elections as in they throw the votes out and report something. But the politicians at state level figure out ways to make certain people that they don't want running things get marginalized somehow. [17:03] XRevan86 DaemonFC[m]: And what happens is that the "systemic opposition parties" have a lot of supporters in their ranks, so they end up being elected when possible. [17:03] DaemonFC[m] Either laws that turn a few of them away from the polls or gerrymandering the legislative districts. [17:04] DaemonFC[m] It's a much more legitimate election process than much of the world gets, but it still sucks. [17:04] XRevan86 DaemonFC[m]: There are different ways the election can be rigged: 1. literal fraud; 2. spoiler candidates; 3. refusal to register. [17:04] DaemonFC[m] We have minor parties that are "manipulated" by the major ones. [17:05] DaemonFC[m] The Democrats send out mailers to Republicans about how great the Libertarian is. [17:05] DaemonFC[m] The Republicans provide lawyers to get the Green Party on the ballot. [17:05] CrystalMath Jo Jorgenson really is great [17:05] XRevan86 DaemonFC[m]: FPTP elections are easier to break with just "divide & conquer" (pluralism). [17:06] *vZS1 (~vZS1@host-92-25-9-33.as13285.net) has joined #techrights [17:06] DaemonFC[m] It did not end up spoiling anything last year. Support for the Green Party and the Libertarian Party dropped by over 2/3rds from their 2016 percentages. [17:06] XRevan86 Local elections in Russia are actually FPTP, that's why United Russia didn't even need to do anything to get elected every time until Smart Voting from Navalny became a thing. [17:06] DaemonFC[m] I'm considering a run for the Illinois state House of Representatives but I'm sort of trying to figure out the best way to do that. [17:07] DaemonFC[m] If Illinois went back to multi-representative districts, it would be easier to get minor party candidates into some of the seats. [17:07] XRevan86 Because United Russia is actually united, unlike the opposition which could be dozens of names. [17:08] DaemonFC[m] Well, I don't know how it works in Russia. Hell, it's different in every state here. In New York, different parties can run the same candidate, and it all counts towards a total for that candidate. [17:08] DaemonFC[m] So the smart candidates end up being the Democrat and the candidate for like 5-6 of the state's minor parties too. [17:09] DaemonFC[m] Cumulatively, they'll get enough votes to win the election. [17:09] DaemonFC[m] Ironically, Cuomo, which shut down the state of New York, which leads the country in unemployment now, was also the Working Families Party candidate. [17:10] XRevan86 DaemonFC[m]: In those local elections names are just listed which what parties are affiliated with them. [17:10] XRevan86 Then the people who got the relative majority of votes (FPTP) will get the seats. [17:10] DaemonFC[m] The Republicans generally show up in every election, which means that they can be a smaller party and still win sometimes. [17:11] DaemonFC[m] Democrats just tend not to show up if they don't like their candidate. So if Biden is smart, he'll maneuver to have appeal to the broadest amount of the base possible. [17:12] DaemonFC[m] Transgender people are few, but I think after what Trump was doing to them large and small, very few will vote for Republicans now. The Republicans eventually realized that openly attacking gay people was a losing issue that had had its day. It was a platform until about 2004 and then it wasn't. [17:12] XRevan86 DaemonFC[m]: That's not what I mean.

[17:13] XRevan86 Boris Johnson didn't get the majority, but still won. [17:13] DaemonFC[m] And part of the way Putin does that is by appealing to them on social issues he personally doesn't care about. [17:14] XRevan86 "43.6%" that's not a majority. [17:14] XRevan86 but it's a relative majority, because the next candidate got 32.1% [17:14] DaemonFC[m] Bill Clinton didn't do much better than that in 1992. [17:14] DaemonFC[m] He didn't have to. Ross Perot came in as a third party, got over 20 million votes I think, but not enough in any state to win any electoral votes. [17:15] XRevan86 DaemonFC[m]: What I mean is that Putin supporters and other conformists will always go United Russia while everyone else will spread out around the other candidates. [17:15] XRevan86 DaemonFC[m]: FPTP is how United Russia and the Tories always win. [17:16] DaemonFC[m] I can't imagine who would support a guy who poisons the opposition. Does it work the way things were getting here where they just go "Trump didn't do that. You're making it up!"? [17:16] XRevan86 At least in the US they figured out that with this system one has to reduce the number of choices to just two parties. [17:16] XRevan86 DaemonFC[m]: yes [17:17] XRevan86 DaemonFC[m]: It's a problem somewhere in the heathens, not really real. [17:17] XRevan86 * heavens [17:17] DaemonFC[m] Yes, the opposition in Russia needs to develop one big tent opposition party to take out United Russia. [17:17] DaemonFC[m] That's the only way to beat one big party, is with another big party. [17:18] XRevan86 DaemonFC[m]: That's what Smart Voting is for. [17:18] *huggi has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer) [17:18] DaemonFC[m] Unless you just keep doing runoff elections and eliminate the worst performers. [17:18] DaemonFC[m] Some US states do that. [17:18] XRevan86 It's a quasi-party. [17:18] DaemonFC[m] Third parties can change the outcome in Georgia. [17:18] DaemonFC[m] That's what happened in the US Senate race last year. [17:19] DaemonFC[m] The Greens and Libertarians got enough votes that neither Republican candidate could clear 50%, so a new election was called. By then, the Democrats had more time to organize and come back and say it was all about control of the Senate, and the Democrats won. [17:19] DaemonFC[m] They did significantly better than in the original election. [17:20] XRevan86 DaemonFC[m]: "could clear 50%" sounds like a second tour / run-off election [17:20] DaemonFC[m] With the runoffs, someone has to do better than 50% because there's only two people. [17:20] XRevan86 That's very different. [17:20] XRevan86 DaemonFC[m]: Yes, that's a much better election system than basic FPTP.

So that was nice [19:19] DaemonFC[m] My mom was such a Debby Downer the whole time. I told her I was afraid that I had done all I could and we still might not win. She goes, "Well, I told you that you shouldn't have gotten married. You didn't know him or his sister.". [19:20] vZS1_2 There were quite a few LGBTQ+ people in the crowd. That was nice to see as well. [19:20] DaemonFC[m] Now she's sort of like dumbstruck that I managed to win the case and acts like there was never any reason for alarm and she was supportive the whole time. [19:21] vZS1_2 Pretty much everyone was wearing a face mask. Good for the privacy. [19:21] DaemonFC[m] I'm glad that this whole mess started and went exactly the way it did. [19:22] DaemonFC[m] The odds were so small that each particular point would happen and yet it did. [19:22] DaemonFC[m] At the beginning, I was talking to every law firm in Chicago, offering to throw thousand dollar bills at them and they were all like no I don't want your case. It stinks. There's no way I can possibly make that work. [19:23] vZS1_2 Everyone at protests should wear a face covering of some sort. Makes it a lot harder to target individuals out. [19:25] DaemonFC[m] I was like "Jesus, is our case really _that_ bad?" and at the time, yes it was. And it improved over a couple of years to the point where we got it to go through in the end, but the odds from the beginning were like almost zero. [19:25] DaemonFC[m] And although Maricel flaked out on us, in the end she was still instrumental in making it go through because they accepted the original filing and issued him an EAD on the presumption that we'd just go in there, they'd accept her affidavit, and that would be that. [19:25] DaemonFC[m] A fact that I will be more than happy to rub her face in if I choose to at a later date. I'm still gathering my thoughts for a letter to her.

[20:07] vZS1_2 Tell that to China. [20:07] DaemonFC[m] They're a Communist country. Literally the only good part about Communism is when the government says do something it's not an option, and in the case of disease control that's a good thing.

[20:09] DaemonFC[m] Due to federalism, there was only so much a good president could have done, but we had Trump, so he didn't even try to do what he could. [20:10] DaemonFC[m] The US has a fairly strong federal government, but it has boundaries. [20:10] DaemonFC[m] Most of its control over the states is saying do this and you'll get money, don't do that or you won't get money. [20:10] DaemonFC[m] That usually works though.

[20:14] DaemonFC[m] We're buying the hospitals capacity to treat people who get sick anyway. We're buying time for some people to get the vaccine instead of COVID.

[21:09] DaemonFC[m] They even reopened the movies here. [21:09] DaemonFC[m] We went yesterday. [21:10] DaemonFC[m] So in reality, the poor state of the economy was largely intentional in order to embarrass Trump and blame him for the necessity of large bailout packages and stuff. [21:10] schestowitz they won't fix anything [21:11] DaemonFC[m] Now that people are terrified of the virus, the reopening might not really be happening whether Democrat governors are letting up to try to cause a recovery that Biden can show with a pointy stick.

[21:12] DaemonFC[m] I counted six more stores in the parts of the mall we were in that were closing permanently, including the Hot Topic. [21:12] DaemonFC[m] 4 more have already closed, and this is within the past week. [21:13] DaemonFC[m] When we were in Chicago, there was less traffic and fewer people out than there normally are on Christmas day.

[21:14] DaemonFC[m] Do you think Democrats are reopening their states mostly because Trump is gone now? [21:14] DaemonFC[m] Enough damage seems to have been done, enough people have been frightened, that we're already talking failed reopening though. [21:15] DaemonFC[m] About the only thing they can do is force kids back in the schools without sufficient preparedness and threaten the parents with truant officers, and none of this affects rich kids because they can keep doing remote learning.

[21:28] DaemonFC[m] I managed to get his score up to that from 608 in about 6 months before going into the interview. [21:29] DaemonFC[m] To immigration, a good score for the immigrant indicated fiscal responsibility and a high probability of paying their debts. [21:29] DaemonFC[m] That's a new one under Trump that was required with the new public charge schedules, but I submitted Mandy's voluntarily to build his case. [21:30] DaemonFC[m] New public charge schedules turn every immigration case into about twice as much paperwork as filing a bankruptcy. So it drives up the cost of hiring an attorney.

[21:34] DaemonFC[m] Oddly, the lawyers are pissed about the immigration public charge because having complicated cases that take a lot of hours does pay them more per client, but it drove away more clients than the extra fees are worth to them. [21:34] DaemonFC[m] Demand is down even though costs are up, and higher costs are a major factor in reduced demand. [21:35] DaemonFC[m] Therefore, it's harder for them to run a business.

[23:34] *karolyi[m] (karolyikso@gateway/shell/matrix.org/x-reywqxivoragtvqh) has joined #techrights [23:35] DaemonFC[m] So they upped the rate 30% to soak taxpayers because the state suddenly decided to do something about homeless people. [23:35] DaemonFC[m] The stigma of homelessness is the hardest part to overcome. [23:35] DaemonFC[m] A lot of businesses won't hire someone who is homeless, obviously, and then it becomes impossible to make money and get out of homelessness.

It's for the best that I blew it up. Honestly. That I blew up their "relationship", because she's a goddamned parasite who had him so gaslit that I was never going to rehabilitate him without "shock therapy". [23:37] -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.commondreams.org | Opinion | Waking from a Four-Year Fever Dream to Find US Global Power Gone [23:39] DaemonFC[m] We almost ended up with no place to live. It was danger close to that. [23:40] DaemonFC[m] Believe me I have sympathy for the homeless people in this area. The government, instead of just caring about them a little bit due to not wanting them to spread COVID, should give them some jobs to do and let them earn a paycheck. [23:40] DaemonFC[m] All people really want is some dignity and a sense that they'll be okay. [23:41] DaemonFC[m] President Biden announced a "Civilian Climate Corps" that will hire young people or something. Very high youth unemployment these days. [23:41] DaemonFC[m] There's gotta be something for them to do. [23:44] DaemonFC[m] schestowitz: As we can see, it does sometimes take the law changing to get companies to do something like, you know, the investment in solar energy that ComEd is doing in Illinois. [23:44] DaemonFC[m] They fought that renewable standard for a long time. Trying to get a bill that bailed out their nuclear plants and didn't require anything from them,.
