Another approach for mainstream parties is to woo the hard right’s voters by adopting some of their preferred policies. … Research by Tarik Abou-Chadi of the University of Oxford shows that when mainstream politicians adopt anti-immigrant positions, it only serves to remind voters why they might vote for hard-right parties in the first place.
“But I’m different, I can do it” - every conservative leader
Thanks for all the suggestions. I’ll have a look at them. Unfortunately none of them seem all that good. Spotify ist the only one that has a Linux app. Tide has a third party app, which is just the website inside electron. Even the Spotify app is just electron. I find it extremely shitty that these companies don’t even bother publishing electron apps. The ratings on the play store are also mostly bad. But I have to investigate that.
Which music streaming service do you recommend? (honest question)
This is probably the worst thing Trump has done so far. This 15% minimum tax deal was way too little, but still one of the best things that happened in the last few years. Now we are back in a race to the bottom. Only the rich will win.
It sounds like standard demented Trump. Musk -> Technology -> Computers -> Voting Machines -> Hey, everybody remember, how I won the election?!
I don’t know if these anti Nazi laws have ever been enforced in a rigorous manner. And most politicians are too afraid of doing it because the Nazis have growing support by the people. I’m pretty sure they could do more to fight the afd legally. But then again, they could also do more to satisfy voters, so they don’t vote for extremist. Both is never going to happen.
They are all realizing that this is the new reality. And the American people wanted it. So there is no good reason for them to resist.
Hm. Interestingly Wikipedia defines the term differently than I expected:
In current language, “witch-hunt” metaphorically means an investigation that is usually conducted with much publicity, supposedly to uncover subversive activity, disloyalty, and so on, but with the real purpose of harming opponents. It can also involve elements of moral panic, as well as mass hysteria.
By that definition you can indeed call it a witch hunt. But somehow it still feels wrong to call an investigation a witch hunt, if the person being investigated really did commit a crime.
Sounds like the investigation was politically motivated. But not a witch hunt. Same as with Trump.
Those warrants are worth a lot. Not enough to put them behind bars, but still a lot!
Rogan is rich. The rules don’t apply to the rich. His daughters will thrive in an unequal world.
Exactly this. He was born rich, and yet he came up with an endless stream of grifts throughout his life. This is unnecessary and reckless. I believe he does it because he has a deep inferiority complex and ripping off people gives him a feeling of superiority.
Please read the article before posting!
Trump only ever escalates, he never deescalates. So no, he would never quit. But you are absolutely right that losing again would be a huge insult to him. Bigger than before.

You can run some of them on your computer and do anything with them.
Others - Grok in particular - don’t have safeguards. And even if they have safeguards, depending on how they were implemented, you may be able to circumvent them.
I’m such a sucker for a true love story 😍.
