It’s so strange, again, how the “progressives” deny that genetics has anything to do with anything except with the “fact” that they have no choice except to be corpulent lumps slurping shakes and slapping down sandwiches. Then, that’s all genetics.
That never seems to cause any cognitive dissonance or dogma-questioning at all.

And if you’re using a workplace as your means of social contact, YOU ARE DOING IT WRONG.
For anyone following along at home: every single security expert or cryptographer I've spoken to *in my entire career* says encryption backdoors can't be done without also opening the door for hackers. It's not a matter of impartiality. It's a matter of cryptographic fact. https://t.co/68somQwKWV

I’m not a cryptographer but I am a security expert, and I can confirm that you cannot put encryption backdoors into any product or service without a big flashing “ENTER HERE” sign to hackers. That’s not an opinion. That’s just an inevitable fact of how the world and cryptography works.
1-Biden was wrong here but he didn't know it because the banks he coddled for decades were about to unleash holy hell on us.
2-I'll say it. I saw Biden yesterday. He walked into the room like he had stumbled out of his hospital bed in a nightgown. He's declining and it's sad. https://t.co/iLAV7Dpbpj

Yeah, if Biden is elected there is very a good chance his VP will be finishing out his term. He does not act or look healthy.
people call Russiagate "liberal Qanon" but that's not true. Qanon at least got its people to distrust the lying ass media, whereas Russiagate got the libs to believe that the Iraq War planners sincerely just "made a mistake" and are "on our side now, really"

Ok, fair. Can find nothing wrong here.
formula one cars look like you could just pick the back up with one hand to bully the driver

No one could do it one-handed, but the very strongest deadlifters can almost certainly pick up one side of an F1 car. Those cars by regulation all weigh 1548 pounds with the driver, and about 1400-ish without. As long as two wheels stay on the ground and as the angle increases, you are lifting progressively less as you go.
Thus, since the best deadlifters can lift 1,000ish pounds, with proper grip they could heft one side of an F1 car off the ground because at most (assuming no driver and little fuel), they’d have to handle around 700 pounds. This is well within the capabilities of the most burly of the best deadlifters.
Just because something *didn't happen* doesn't mean the procedures taken weren't necessary.

Yes, this seems to be a weird and mostly-unrecognized human cognitive flaw that even very smart people are prone to. Or should I say, “smart.” It can be seen most notably with Y2K but it occurs often.
If procedures occur to forestall the occurrence of a problem, the vast majority then conclude that those measures were unnecessary! How your brain can be this broken I don’t understand, yet here we are.

Oh lord. I’m for people marrying whoever they want to above the age of majority, but that just does not look right or good.

I thought Elizabeth Warren would be a great President, but not enough people agree with me. It sucks but I am moving on, and donating to Bernie today (again). We can do this! Biden is an incredibly weak opponent who I’m afraid will lose badly to Trump in November.
— Summer Anne Burton (@summeranne) March 4, 2020
Biden is very weak — perhaps worse than Clinton. Trump will mop the floor with him. It won’t even be close. The only way Biden wins is if the economy craters due to Covid-19 and resultant corporate debt defaults.

In most Western European countries, Sanders would be a center-left politician. We have no real “left” party or politicians in this country. What people here perceive as “left” or “liberal” often would be considered conservative elsewhere.
Biden has no chance of being president. Ya’ll ready for four more years of Trump?
The story of Biden is old people screwing over the young one last time, just because they can.
Perfect that it’ll be done by senile old creepy uncle who barely knows what day it is.
If the nominee ends up being Biden, Trump wins. Which, you know, the DNC is fine with.
Big difference between:
Bernie POTUS with a senate majority.
Bernie POTUS without a senate majority.
Bernie without a Senate majority is going to be a lot like Biden, IMO.
Don't forget about the lower races.

Ah, since Bernie might win, already back to the “President has no power” schtick after four years of talking about how Trump had the power to end the world. Good, good.
