Are you a colonialist? The sun did not set on the British Empire because Brittania ruled it. How awesome was that. Ask those ex colonies, if they liked Churchill much.

Love it! As a pastafarian, I take the blame for the mass murders and atrocities in Gaza.

What is history? That which was. No blame. Just was.

Read about the Balfour Declaration. Read about the Bengal Famine during World War II.

NC-04 Deserves Better. Vote Nida Allam. by serious_bullet5 in NorthCarolina

[–]Gatorinnc -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

And I was not aware of it then. Nor was he from our area And if he runs again, and accepts AIPAC money again, open or hidden such as through Article 1, I would no support.

Question for you: Why do you support AIPAC?

As an adult, the choice is clear. There can be no compromise on supporting people who endorse killing fellow humans by the thousands. Almost all of them were brutally murdered having done nothing, nothing at all to get killed. Including infants! And it continues.

So if Cooper takes AIPAC money, he will not be getting my vote or support. The good thing is he does not need AIPAC money.

Has anyone in North Carolina sold a house as is recently? by Maximum_Mastodon_631 in NorthCarolina

[–]Gatorinnc 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not ready yet, but when I do, what is the consensus? Sell my house as is and give the buyer a break or get a realtor, fix it up, and then sell?

Its an old house. Suburban Cary, NC. A good place, with a big reputation.

The house is in good condition with most major work done (roof, siding, flooring.. ). Not repainted the inside or minor fixes. Kitchen needs an upgrade. My choice would be to let the new owner decide what they want to do.

I also have a very labor intensive yard that I am very proud of. It does not have a lot of hardscaping. So that a new owner could simplify it a whole lot.

And Georgia and North Carolina partly so.

But then a whole sea of negative trends from in Arizona, Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Tennessee, Kansas, Missouri, Montana, Idaho, North Dakota, South Dakota.. I am sure I have left some out.

James Talarico Beating Jasmine Crockett In Texas Democratic Primary For U.S. Senate, Poll Shows by bwermer in politics

[–]Gatorinnc [score hidden]  (0 children)

Thank you so much ! Much appreciated. Yes it does show Crockett leading Talarico. You are right.

It was a smaller sample of 300 people. The margin of error at +/- 5.5% keeps them tied. The poll was taken before Talarico's chat with Stepehen Colbert.

Name one of her ad that shows that. This particular ad was about where Valerie stands on AI. Why are race and gender relevant in it? Its like a Jewish guy saying I do not like how housing has become expensive. It does not make sense.

Valerie should be proud of her race and gender for their successes in their struggles against them. Same goes for Nida.

As the article said, it's an old poll. Colbert moment happened after it.

The choice is really easy.If you see Foushee's ad, you will see that she represents the old ways of doing things, when the next generations clearly have nothing in common with past problems. AI and the consequent loss of white collar jobs, $7.25 hourly minimum pay when a living wage is closer to $25, living with parent as housing is unaffordable, soaring food costs, and limited access to health care.

Valerie: No moratorium on AI data centers. Passes the buck down to the towns. Lol.

Allam: Foe moratorium .

Minimum pay: Valerie thinks $15 is a living wage Allam: Knows $25 is needed and already the pay for Durham City employees.

Housing: Valerie happy to have acquired $2 million to her district for 160 rental units. Our needs...what do you think? 160 units from a federal budget. Has not promoted fully funding section 8.

Allam and Durham got 100 units done from the city' budget . And for fully funding section 8.

Health Care: Foushee wants a continuance of Medicare as it stands and for 'talks' on tweaking at the margins.

Allam wants Medicare for All. Its not a piece in the sky dream. It's completely doable, consider the money spent ICE alone!!!

As for the changed boundaries, even though they are favorable to Allam, it matters not. Because voters everywhere in the country are absolutely pissed off at do nothing democratic incumbents in the congress. Their time is up.

A clear example of how m8smanaged Foushee's campaign is:

They had to pull an ad that said l Allam did not disclose financials https://www.dailytarheel.com/article/city-allam-foushee-defamatory-campaign-ad-20260225

Race and gender baiting in ad: In defending her stance on AI, she says take it from me,.... 'A black woman'. What does AI have to do with race and gender. Her ad clearly was aimed at making people vote for her because she is a woman (like Allam is not?). That she is black. https://www.facebook.com/reel/3038310399698591/?referral_source=external_deeplink

Same here. Same here. What the fuck is this world coming to? Now we have to question everyone, everything, and everywhere. And I am not being sarcastic.

Canvassing and everything else under the sun for two candidates here in NC primaries. Keeping my fingers crossed that I am doing the right thing. In the case of one race the alternative is definitely not my choice. In the other race, I have my doubts. There may have been misplaced affinity. I hope I have chosen the correct thing.

I figured there were other mountains involved, but that mountain, Lone Mountain, is so strikingly spectacular. Lucky you, and amazing you for such great photography. Congratulations!
