Never forget that if someone is lying, it's because they expect someone else to believe them. There would be no point to trying to fool the Republican rank-and-file if a majority of them weren't fools.
That said, there could be a significant amount of self-foolery going on.
Actual libertarians should take note: their right-wing allies were never pro-freedom, just antigovernment. And their opposition to government was never based on the principle of a less authoritarian society, but rather due to the government's role in restraining their own power and authority. Now that they see a path to their traditional role as society's power brokers, they have abandoned their so-called "libertarianism".
I was a Libertarian, with a capital 'L'. I was secretary in my local party. I held signs, knocked on doors, circulated petitions, and was otherwise politically active. I was never particularly comfortable with the low-key racism, patriarchism, corporatism, landlordism, and feudal and monarchial apologism, and otherwise nongovernmental forma of authoritarianism, that always seemed to be present in the movement, in one form or another. But for a long time I figured they were an anomaly in an otherwise decent movement.
But I eventually realized that they were not the anomaly that didn't belong; I was.
"Mothers for America" isn't.
It would make for an interesting lawsuit if this agreement were active and someone who was disqualified from certain state ballots nevertheless won the popular vote. I doubt that'll be Trump (he didn't even win the popular vote before he tried to steal an election). But it would be interesting.
If it were my place to rule on the matter, my take would be that because the agreement was between state governments, only states who are part of the agreement have standing to pursue the matter in court. In other words, the campaign couldn't sue over the matter, only another state government that was also part of the agreement.
In case you didn't already know, I'm pretty sure the agreement isn't active yet. It doesn't activate until there are enough states with enough electoral votes to decide the outcome. To the best of my knowledge, that hasn't happened yet.
He isn't a Right Wing capitalist. He's a Left Wing capitalist. The Right is feudalist.
No, see, it won't, because of a vast left-wing conspiracy to persecute Donald Trump while letting Joe Biden (and Hillary Clinton) get away with everything. They used evil Satan magic to somehow make a conspiracy of millions work.
Humor involves the kind of mental agility that the right-wing mind is specifically incapable of... as in, that's what makes them right-wing. Practically the defining characteristic of the right-wing is extreme discomfort with anything that deviates from "normal".
"Evidence against Biden". Just a bunch of lines. :p
At first I was like, "Man, the Onion has gone downhill. These stories are supposed to sound both ridiculous and credible, not just ridiculous." Then I remembered that George Santos is a drag queen.
I've probably seen it here more than on Reddit, but that's because I spend more time in the general gaming community here, while on Reddit I was in the fan community specifically... particularly teslore, where "Duh, TES lore is stupid and random" doesn't get much traction.
Would you recommend NMS to someone who:
Really wants to play Starfield but probably won't have the necessary hardware for at least a year.
Is an old Bethsoft fan, having played, and thoroughly enjoyed, every TES game from Daggerfall to Online, excepting only Battlespire and the phone games.
Has been jonesing for some space sandbox for probably a decade at least.
This is what I figured was going on when all those articles came out about Apple "changing its position" on right-to-repair. The politicians got to claim a victory, but Apple was in the details.
