Right. Not without truly shifting a substantial amount of people. Maybe there's a way to start shifting the republican base and get them to wake up and change how they vote. Maybe there just needs to be a huge education campaign.

There's so much that can be done that is difficult and might ultimately have little to no impact, but if no one does nothing, then nothing happens.

We need to start pushing other parties. This doesn't change for as long as we keep dems and repubs.

However, I'm voting blue for prez and over any repub for the foreseeable future.

Is France OK?

I thought I saw something about that but didn't remember where or look further into it. I just didn't want to register as either of the big 2. How do we link up independent voters to a new party? We don't have to play democrat/republican in the long game if we can get enough people on board to shift the board.

I recognize this will take time and considerable effort, but I think a new party with a clean history would do this country good. Who is the outside team that's got some momentum that we can build on? (albeit not for this prez cycle, sadly)

And finding quality ones that will last a long time is more difficult than you might think.

Many of them are made cheaply.

I can understand that. Given even edge runs a modified chromium if I recall correctly, everything is being developed for that. I use edge since its built in when sites aren't working, which isn't often for me. That said, on my work laptop, I use exclusively edge.

What's wrong with Firefox? They've been around a long time and are currently in a good spot as far as speed/compatibility goes

Even if I lived across the street from my office, I would still prefer to work from my home.

My only concern is that they'd decide he's a martyr and claim the deep state killed him.....

Seriously, is there no way out of this bs?

I kinda don't want to respond since maybe I say something that is misconstrued, so let me preface by saying this: Please don't fuck or engage sexually in any way with teens.

I get the attraction since that's the period human hormones go crazy, but that should fade over time in my opinion. As you get older that age group will appear more and more like what they are, kids. 18 is barely out of high school in most cases. You should also avoid being around them since proximity has an effect on attraction.

Development is complex so I understand there are maturity arguments that can be made on a case by case basis, at least in theory, but in practice, it's just not worth it. More than likely you will hurt someone that thought they were mature but didn't fully understand something. At worst you will ruin their life and your own.

Anecdotal, being from Louisiana, this is what I've been pressured with my entire life.
