  • US Election 2024 (All general discussion)
    Mexico's elections are far securer — Lionino

    No.

    The November 3rd election was the most secure in American history. Right now, across the country, election officials are reviewing and double checking the entire election process prior to finalizing the result.

    “When states have close elections, many will recount ballots. All of the states with close results in the 2020 presidential race have paper records of each vote, allowing the ability to go back and count each ballot if necessary. This is an added benefit for security and resilience. This process allows for the identification and correction of any mistakes or errors. There is no evidence that any voting system deleted or lost votes, changed votes, or was in any way compromised.

    “Other security measures like pre-election testing, state certification of voting equipment, and the U.S. Election Assistance Commission’s (EAC) certification of voting equipment help to build additional confidence in the voting systems used in 2020.

    “While we know there are many unfounded claims and opportunities for misinformation about the process of our elections, we can assure you we have the utmost confidence in the security and integrity of our elections, and you should too. When you have questions, turn to elections officials as trusted voices as they administer elections.”

    They were Trump officials.

    Trump Panel Finds No Voter Fraud

    Court filings show that in spite of the president’s claim that millions of people voted illegally, his recently disbanded commission found no evidence of voter fraud.

    https://www.usnews.com/news/national-news/articles/2018-01-10/trump-commision-on-election-integrity-found-no-evidence-of-voter-fraud

    Back in 2018, when he also claimed there was widespread voter fraud. Which everyone with a brain cell knows is bullshit anyway.

    The incidence of voter fraud has been studied numerous times. The consensus from credible research and investigation is that the rate of illegal voting is extremely rare, and the incidence of certain types of fraud – such as impersonating another voter – is virtually nonexistent.

    https://www.brennancenter.org/our-work/research-reports/resources-voter-fraud-claims

    Which is why Trump has lost literally every court case on this. It’s conjured out of thin air to excuse his loss, which he was telegraphing months in advance.

    Again, quite shocking that one of our resident clowns is a believer in such stupidity. The general level of a mind that supports Trump, though…

    So a complete ignoramus about this too. I’m shocked. :scream:

    Trump’s own officials say 2020 was America’s most secure election in history
  • US Election 2024 (All general discussion)

    If everything’s honest, I’ll gladly accept the results. I don’t change on that,” Mr. Trump said, according to The Journal Sentinel. “If it’s not, you have to fight for the right of the country.”

    In an interview with Time magazine published on Tuesday, he also dismissed questions about political violence in November by suggesting that his victory was inevitable.

    When pressed about what might happen should he lose, he said, “if we don’t win, you know, it depends. It always depends on the fairness of an election.”

    Mr. Trump’s insistent and fraudulent claims that the 2020 election was unfair were at the heart of his efforts to overturn his loss to President Biden, and to the violent storming of the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, by a mob of supporters who believed his claims. Mr. Trump now faces dozens of felony charges in connection with those events.

    https://www.nytimes.com/live/2024/05/02/us/biden-trump-campaign

    So when he loses a clean election again (2020 was probably the most clean and fair in US history), and comes up with some nonsense reason to reject it — which is a given — despite being able to predict this 6 months out, his supporters will be right there with him and the media will be shocked at the fact that he won’t concede the loss.

    It’s likely that he’ll make something up even if he wins, as he did in 2016 regarding the popular vote.

    But each cunt has its day, as someone famous might have said, and today it's Israel who is the cunt. — bert1

    If the roles were reversed, sure. If it were mostly Israelis living in a concentration camp and being killed at 10x the number as their occupying oppressors, I for one would be condemning the latter.

    ↪180 Proof


    Honestly, it’s not even using an emoji to be rude— it legitimately made me laugh, which is actually rare. “Gaza isn’t oppressed because you don’t oppress land” — stated seriously. Don’t know whether to laugh or cry…but in the end, it was a laugh.

    Anyway, done with genocide apologists.
  • Israel killing civilians in Gaza and the West Bank
    You oppress people, not land. — BitconnectCarlos

    :rofl: “not land” This really did have me laughing.

    Moronic apologists. They really should get brighter defenders. Good lord.

    Israel has always been a pariah. — BitconnectCarlos

    No.

    who's closer to Nazis IDF or Hamas the answer is Hamas — BitconnectCarlos

    I’m shocked.

    Which is why Israel is now a pariah state.

    Sorry, you’re delusional. But carry on…

    I see NOS has put everyone to sleep on this thread. Nice.
  • Israel killing civilians in Gaza and the West Bank
    Hamas are the nazis. Israel is the US and Britain. Children being killed in the thousands is unintended collateral damage, mostly the fault of Hamas (human shields). Never intended, the way Hamas does. No genocide, all defensive. No occupation.

    Translation: when we do it, it’s counter-terrorism. When they do it, it’s terrorism. Vintage propagandas for state atrocities. The Turks used it, the Americans used it, the Indonesians, even the Germans. Hamas uses it too.

    Please continue your genocide apologia — it’s clearly doing wonders in the US and around the world.

    Nope. Keep trying though.

  • Israel killing civilians in Gaza and the West Bank
    Just to get it all straight:

    - storming the Capitol building in attempt to overturn an election, chanting “Hang Mike Pence,” smashing windows and injuring police officers = perfectly fine tour.

    - students protesting genocide on college campuses = threat to the world.

  • Israel killing civilians in Gaza and the West Bank
    Genocide apologists really can’t do satire. It’s more funny to watch them try though.
  • Israel killing civilians in Gaza and the West Bank
    Likud is like the US and murdering 15,000 innocent children is fine because Hamas are the Nazis and 300,000 German children were killed so bada bing bada boom hey look Joe DiMaggio and done. Genocide justified.
  • Israel killing civilians in Gaza and the West Bank
    So Likud is the US of WWII now. :lol:

    Good to see Americans — along with the rest of the world — aren’t buying the pathetic justifications for genocide.

    Oh cool now the genocide apologist is calling people Nazis! Doing his greatest hits!
  • Israel killing civilians in Gaza and the West Bank
    ↪BitconnectCarlos


    Oh look the genocide apologist is attempting satire. Emphasis on attempting. Too stupid to even do that correctly, but what do we expect?
  • Israel killing civilians in Gaza and the West Bank
    It is kind of fun watching genocide apologists rambling on like morons. But in the meantime, 15,000 + children have been murdered. And the world sees it and wants it to stop.
  • Israel killing civilians in Gaza and the West Bank
    ↪BitconnectCarlos


    15,000 children dead. We know you cheer it on, no need to reiterate it. The rest of the world (literally) has moved on from genocide apologia.
  • Israel killing civilians in Gaza and the West Bank
    ↪BitconnectCarlos


    15,000 murdered children and counting. A genocide right before our eyes. I wouldn’t compare it to the Holocaust myself, but thanks for reminding us of WWII and how Nazis could get away with such atrocities thanks to apologists like you. But it’s Jewish guys in government doing it now, so it’s cool. They have good intentions and all.
  • Israel killing civilians in Gaza and the West Bank
    Demonstrators agreed to dismantle their encampment at Brown, which had been removed by Tuesday evening, and university leaders said they would discuss, and later vote on, divesting funds from companies connected to the Israeli military campaign in Gaza.

    That’s how easy it is. :clap:

    That is what we imagine you looking like, incel. Well done. (Having a cartoon ready on the occasion that someone accurately describes you as an incel definitely shows you’re not one. Guess this happens a lot to you. )

    Yes. And look what they did to Bernie— twice. They’d rather lose the election than give it to someone that isn’t part of the Obama-Clinton DNC machine.
  • US Supreme Court (General Discussion)
    With rulings coming soon, watch for the destruction of Chevron, the destruction of labor laws, the destruction of environmental regulations, and generally the destruction of freedom.

    But yeah, throwing away votes in protest back in 2016 was definitely worth the temporary feeling of moral righteousness.

  • Israel killing civilians in Gaza and the West Bank
    Anyway, leaving racist incels aside, this is interesting:

    Omar draws criticism for suggesting some Jewish students are ‘pro-genocide.’

    Fine to call any protest “antiemetic,” but being pro-genocide (which happens to be closer to the truth) is a bridge too far. Such consistency in the genocide apologist logic.

    In that case, definitely keep your icon a skull. I hear the same is true of racist internet trolls.

    And racists like you make racist remarks.

    Another overtly racist remark. How surprising.
