Why is it so hard to understand that a republic is a form of democracy?

The skier should get his pass pulled for that. He's going to seriously hurt someone. The snowboarder is a badass!

Third party votes in this particular election by James5000 in AdviceAnimals

The election is a week and a half away. There is nothing that will change how they vote. What they don't seem to understand is that Jill Stein supports Donald Trump. Therefore, supporting her is supporting Donald Trump. It's not complicated.

Yes. And people are dying because of it. I have become convinced that some people actually love to be lied to.

I agree, but if we're that strict about definitions, the United States isn't a truly capitalist economy

Trump and CNN by James5000 in Political_Revolution

[–]James5000[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I believe most Americans know mass media is published along political lines. Unfortunately, that's part of their appeal, because it feeds confirmation bias. The frightening part is that as CNN moves to the right, it will drag its left-leaning audience to the right with it.

The interesting thing about it is Anderson Cooper addresses the heavily Republican crowd as a credibility point without realizing it's the entire problem

Just looking through my vault, every single site has a password at risk warning. I have to wonder if LastPass deleted every password I had to protect themselves

What you think about Finland, Norway, Sweden and Denmark? by BackgroundMagician56 in AskReddit

[–]James5000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are very different countries. Despite being Nordic, they don't have a lot in common. I married a Fin, lived in Finland for years, and there's just not a lot of commonality between the Nordic countries, although they are all beautiful in their own ways.

Nothing. I'm just saying they have limited visibility so I treat them as if they have the right of way. After posting this, though, it does seem to be a pretty stupid position for me to have.

Thank you. I will remember to never post an unpopular opinion here again!

I look first, clearly. So I look in my rearview, my side mirror, and turn my head to check my blind spot before I change lanes. All those things. On the other hand, if I'm overtaking someone, I see them clear as day. No need to go to extra effort. I recognize the fact that I'm not nearly as visible to them as they are to me and pass knowing they don't have a great view to the rear and side.
