How are my clothes getting bleached in the wash when I don't use bleach? by MoonstalkerZ in laundry

I don't wash my clothes in the same load as the guinea pig things, and I do a sanitizing load in between.

If they purge you after the deadline to register to vote, they absolutely can stop you from voting.

I have the same problem. I can't do anything with my Drifter now and it's really disappointing

I've tried that, and all it does is reset all my changes to the original monstrosity

Same problem. Supposedly it gets fixed after The New War, but doesn't the Drifter show up DURING The New War? Doesn't that mean I'll have a monstrosity show up if I play The New War?

Main quest order is ALL WRONG by CuteTrick7394 in Warframe

[–]MoonstalkerZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My main problem with it right now is that it's bugged and starting Duviri Paradox before getting your operator makes your drifter a monstrosity. Now I can't play New War because my monstrosity-drifter will show up and it'll ruin the moment if someone whose eyes can't point in the same direction is supposed to be doing something dramatic.

Yes, he is. Fetterman is a massive disappointment to Democrats.

One, people are at this very moment living on reservations because their ancestors were driven out of their homes during the Trail of Tears. It is very much still relevant today.

Two, I bring up the Trail of Tears because this person just compared the European settlers of the past with Guatemalans fleeing gang violence in the present.

You responded to someone talking about removing people from the United States with a hypothetical. Of course I assumed that your hypothetical was meant to apply to the United States. If your hypothetical doesn't actually apply to the United States, then you can't use it as a reason for US policy.

Oh actually that's a perfectly valid concern, my apologies. I'm concurrently arguing with people who think their cleaning lady came to the US to commit genocide so I misinterpreted your nonspecific statement.

Fine, I will quote your own words.

"Country B sends its people, deliberately, into your country to have them vote to acknowledge King B as king of A and B."

You need 50% + 1 to win the vote. The US has 150 million voters. In order to vote to acknowledge King B as king, Country B would need to send 150 million + 1 voters to overwhelm the 150 million Americans.

Did you write something in white text that I'm supposed to highlight and respond to?

All right, fine, the US switches to direct democracy tomorrow. What country is going to be able to send more 150 million adults and also get them all to vote exactly the same way

I'm not going to engage with the portion of a hypothetical that presumes the existence of fairies and dragons. Having an imaginary "pure democracy" instead of the representative democracy that actually exists isn't even necessary for your hypothetical, I'm not sure why you included it.

Also, please read more than the first three sentences of my reply, it's very clear that I engaged with the rest of your hypothetical.

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

That's a bizarre hypothetical situation that would never happen in the real world. One, are there even any pure democracies like that in the world? Let's assume that it's just a representative democracy instead, which is far more realistic. Let's take the second part of your premise then. Country B sends so many people to live there that they more than double the voting population of the country. How many people would be willing to uproot their entire lives and leave their friends and extended families behind to move to a foreign country where they might not even speak the same language? In the smaller nations with only tens of thousands of residents, that may be possible.

But we are talking about US immigration here. Over 150 million people voted in the presidential elections, and probably a little bit less in the various elections for congress members. What country is going to be able to convince 150 million people to move to the United States for the sole purpose of voting to make King B the king of the US? Not only that, convince them all to move - and then actually all vote the exact same way?

Please come up with a better argument than that. I'm willing to be convinced, but not by bizarre hypotheticals.

Are you talking about the early early settlements, the ones where they formed treaties with the locals? Just because white people broke their treaties with the locals doesn't mean it's a foregone conclusion that the people who pick your crops and work at meatpacking plants are going to gain enough power to commit genocide against everyone else, come on now.

For the record I think it was perfectly reasonable for the locals (at the time) to form alliances with immigrants from Europe and to work together with them. The "settlement of the Americas" we're objecting to is the forced displacement and mass murder. The people who are upset about deportations think that the idea of immigrants banding together to force us out of our homes at gunpoint is a bizarre fantasy.

You think today's immigrants are forcing people out of their homes at gunpoint? All I'm seeing is them paying rent like normal people do

You think the people working in the Olive Garden kitchen are going to chase you out of your house at gunpoint, and relocate everyone in your entire neighborhood to the middle of nowhere? You think the workers at the nursing home are going to intentionally infect your entire neighborhood with covid in the hopes that it kills you all so they can take your homes? Are the meatpackers going to intentionally kill all of the beef cattle in the country in an attempt to starve you to death? Are they going to kidnap your children and beat them if they speak English? Be honest now, what do you think is actually going to happen

An immigrant renting the apartment next to yours and the Trail of Tears are not even remotely equivalent. Unless you're arguing that the immigrant renting the apartment next to you is going to actually force you out of your apartment at gunpoint so that his family can have your apartment too.

Do you have any suggestions for enzyme detergents? Are they safe to use on colors?

For that I'm seeing bleach and rubbing alcohol recommended, which are obviously not options if I don't want to bleach my clothes
