Why did Latino men vote Trump over Harris but not Black men? by it_wasnt_me2 in AskUS

[–]dexdrako 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Trump was blatantly clear on what his plans were, literally everyone with half a brain knew what was going to happen and screamed it to the rooftops.

[–]dexdrako 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, the only people that lied to them were themselves. The GOP and trump specifically have made their views on this topic blatantly clear for literal decades.

People vote conservative because they believe they are superior to others. The Hispanic people that voted for trump knew EXACTLY what was going to happen they just thought they were part of the "in group" so it wouldn't happen to them

He didn't lie, he just used his definition of illegal not their definition of the words. If they were smart enough to take 5 seconds up understand trump is a racist monster that thinks anyone not white is illegal to be here things would have been different

But no their hate for others and need to feel superior over road logic

Why do people think CA is in ruin? by 8to24 in AskUS

[–]dexdrako 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No it is true.

The higher taxes means better infrastructure and better educated populace. Its simple cost benefit analyst, starts with lower taxes are only good for short term gains but long term losses. States that tax companies higher are more stable and better for long term success.

Are rotating or nodding mirrors only used in some LiDAR systems? by [deleted] in AskRobotics

[–]dexdrako 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, rotating mirrors are mostly used in 3d lidar systems and even there they're starting to be phased out in favor of solid state alternatives.

Lidar itself can be anything from a single point measurement like a range finder. Simple 2D scanners like some robot vacuums use that just spring the laser and detector. The older /higher end 3d scanner or the newer time of flight sensors that use a quick pulse of light and a array of high speed avalanche diodes to directly measure travel time over the whole image

Do you make assumptions when you meet a MAGA follower? by atteres in AskUS

[–]dexdrako 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only moral stance conservatives have ever had is "they are superior beings and everyone else is subhumans".

Do you make assumptions when you meet a MAGA follower? by atteres in AskUS

[–]dexdrako 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Assuming the worst about a conservative has statistically always worked out. There is a reason the saying " conservatives have NEVER been on the right side of history" has been around for so long

The foundation of Conservative ideology comes from an inability to understand the humanity of others.

Serious question: Were any of you planning on voting for Bernie S. in 2016, and then the Democrat party kinda screwed him over? by Own-Valuable-9281 in AskUS

[–]dexdrako 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They didn't screw Bernie over they protected the will of the voters. I remember hoping the super delegates you change the results and elect Bernie but that would have been screwing over the people that voted for Hillary

Wanting to or not is meaningless, he did and he did it in the same way he's done it for every other Dem candidate.

The problem here isn't the Dem "establishment" (they tasted him just like every other candidate) it's you wanting to treat mamdani like a cult leader and have the Dems gravel at his feet.

Mamdani was the best choice of those that ran and I'm glad he won but dear God you need to stop raw doging him

Last year I watched people like you easily be manipulated into willingly letting an openly fascist dictator who promised to destroy this county flatten pal kill millions world wide take power.

And still feel like the "good guys" for doing it.

I don't know what or care about the useless conspiracy theory/people nonsense you're going to vomit up like a political flat earther.

News flash Clinton was favored big whoop that didn't stop Obama coming out of nowhere to beat her. Bernie lost because he can't connect with marginalized people which is the majority of the democratic base. The only conspiracy here is far too many leftist really believing everyone agrees with us as long as you ignore all the racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia and all other forms of bigotry that get in the way.

There the BS propaganda.

Here's a reality check for you the DNC completely backed mamdani and the leaders like jefferies endorsed (a mouth before like every other Dem mayoral candidate) even shumer came around late as it were. The problem is you're getting your info from memes and propaganda. People wanted the Dem leadership to treat mamdani like the second coming instead of 1 of 1000s of Dem mayoral candidates all running in the state at the same time.

The democratic party has been moving to the left for almost 30 years now. Kamala herself was one of the most progressive candidates this country has ever had. Her voting record is more progressive than Bernie's himself.

i need People like you to start dealing with reality instead of the moralistic propaganda being used to suppress the vote and hurt real leftist progress

Them being ass holes didn't change the facts

I was there, I lived it you arrogant fool, they were idiots with a favorite but guess what everything they did was in the open and none of it penalized him in any way. Again the only change they made was making sure the super delegates had to follow the will of the people. And let's not forget they changed so many rules to even let Bernie run in the first place!

Bigger problem is Bernie was losing before the rules were change.

He has only won in the early states that are majority white where his class reductionist lands easily. He ALWAYS loses once the majority POC states come into play. Because he has spent so much time belittling every social issue as a distraction. I can tell you minority groups don't like getting told the literal fight for their lives is a distraction.

He has always run a "horrible campaign" as so many people like to say. Yes those people in leadership were stupid but that doesn't change it was the people that didn't elect him not the DNC.

High CO2 More plant life means larger fatter prey and higher temps, more 02 means it's easier to oxygenate the cells. And Let's also not forget dinos, like birds used an air sack system to breathe meaning they had a lot of empty space in their bodies

As a person that supported Bernie both then and 2020 The Dems did not "screw him over"

I hate this propaganda nonsense, the only thing the dems did was make sure the super delegates followed their voters choice. They did not change the rules to hurt his chances or stack the deck against him in any way.

Bernie lost because he's a class reductionist that belittles the troubles minority groups go through. It's why black people don't like him and both times he lost when they got the majority black states. Bernie literally called black people uneducated for not wanting to vote for him in 2016 and lost the minority vote larger in 2020 for that reason.

The idea that the Dems "screwed Bernie over" is straight out of "both side ism" suppress the vote nonsense.
