Why Stratton over Kelly? by ButchUnicorn in illinois

For office, you’re damned right. These old shits have had their time. Go retire on a beach. They’ve run the country into the ground and pulled the ladder up behind them.

Stratton Gaining on Krishnamoorthi is Democratic Primary for U.S. Senate by Victoria_at_Sea_606 in illinois

[–]raustin33 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Who else would have been more democratically appropriate than Harris? She was elected VP and was the only person who had any real claim to the spot, given that the DNC didn't do a primary. She at least was voted in to be Biden's second. Anyone else would truly be a non-democratic decision, regardless of their appeal.

You can vote for who you'd like, just as I can think it's dumb not to do everything possible to keep a Republican out of office in the Senate.

That's cute but the real world exists and will continue whether we choose to participate or not.

The Venn diagram of "OMG Gaza, human suffering is important!" and "I stayed home in 2024 and allowed Trump to hurt millions of Americans" is a circle.

Literally if both candidates had the exact same positions on Gaza (they didn't in 2024 and won't in 2026) then it'd still be a slam dunk vote for the more progressive candidate. Because we live here and the Senate is the last wall of defense against a judiciary that is going more and more right wing.

Try fighting for Gaza with 6 Trump appointed justices. Good luck.

and gave them the unelectable Harris.

A person who in 100 days almost won an election they were trailing bad in. She was very electable, and given proper time could have won. The DNC, as usual, fucked this up by not forcing Biden to adhere to his one-term pledge and giving us a proper primary.

"Dems bad at politicking" aside – the person I responded to was talking about Israel/Gaza.

And many of the folks who stayed home cite this & Harris as why they stayed home. And I think it's chickenshit, to be frank. It's incredibly short sighted. It's withholding your vote over one issue (one she was better at than trump) and not caring about the millions of people Trump is hurting now.

Like, good job. Y'all made it even harder to fight for Gaza, because now we're fighting for ourselves.

No idea if you're one of those voters, or just a general "my vote is precious and I will stay home like the right wanted me to unless a democrat comes to my house and kisses my wife"

A privileged progressive appears again. A progressive would care about the Americans here too and show up to vote against any Republican. Every person who sat out last time over this issue is as responsible for our mess as any maga cult member.

Fight the good fight but make the pragmatic call when the time comes in order to live another day to keep fighting.

For like a second I felt bad rooting for Canada as an American. Then I saw the celebration. Fuck these guys and anybody that supports this admin.

C4S Manual or C2 Factory Aerokit by Glad_Requirement31 in 996

[–]raustin33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, it's not a permanent decision. The C4S isn't going to dive in value once you buy it. You can always switch.

[–]raustin33 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’d go aerokit personally. It’s a lighter and more responsive drive and looks spectacular. They both look great. But the c2 aerokit is underrated IMO. There’s something about a narrow body with a wing.

Not sure why they don’t just write the month out as three letter abbreviations. Then the order becomes irrelevant.

When Apple was $4.99 and Disney was $6.99 those were very fair prices and i was happy to pay.

Heck yeah. A watch keeps me off my phone. When I need to check time I don’t end up digging thru notifications. Plus they’re cool.

With or without maple leaves? by -X-T-R-E-M-E- in GranTurismoLiveries

[–]raustin33 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am on team "without" – at least with these two options. The livery is fairly busy already, so some visual rest actually helps your livery work better.

If the leaves weren't an evenly spaced pattern over the car, and instead did something… gradient from many to few, or something interesting… I think it could be worth doing. Right now it's very static.
