I'm not familiar with this one, but I was reading about it just now and holy shit how did they even do that? Does write in not mean what I think it means? They actually got that many people to write someone's name down and not fill in a bubble or whatever? I always figured that shit was just about impossible to do
Have they ever? I'm not sure, but it seems like they usually break them. Hell, I thought they broke this one on the first day?
I'm actually surprised more places aren't trying to mimic China by now, but I guess the sinophobia is pretty strong in the West
The article even talks about how they use terms like female-centered instead of matriarchal because the so-called scholars don't wanna think about it
Benjamin Arbuckle, an archaeologist at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill who was not involved in the study, wrote in a perspective in Science that "if the sex patterns were reversed, there would likely be little hesitation in concluding that patriarchal power structures were at play."
"This is reflective of the difficulty that many scholars have in imagining a world characterized by substantial female power despite abundant archaeological, historic, and ethnographic evidence that matriarchal fields of power were and are widespread," Arbuckle said.
Lmao Tlaib and Omar been saying this for years now and I'm sure there are plenty of others. Only the most naive libs think Dems give a fuck about any minority group outside of tokenism and getting votes (easy when the other main party doesn't even hide their hate)
I actually have been, can you please help me by explaining your position on this and maybe providing some small amount of evidence to back it up?
so concerned about insulting a monarch that you insult clowns instead smh my head
The number of ships coming into LA today is lower than Vancouver, Canada. You can look at real time tracking for cargo ships and it's crazy how empty the US ports are compared to normal. Shanghai still booming tho
And they 100% definitely totally stopped in 1975 and never did it again
speaking before a Senate intelligence committee, CIA director John Deutch testified recently that the spy agency could waive the ban in cases of “unique and special threats to national security.”
Everyone knows only rightwingers identify as helicopters so this is clearly their fault
Clearly racism and misogyny plays some role in it, but Harris/SomeGuyIForgot was short something like 6 million votes of Biden/Harris. This liberal talking point is one of the most frustrating because it is also exactly what trump says when shit is obviously not perfect.
Even 2012 Obama only lost ~4M votes compared to 2008 Obama. Dems are becoming more and more disillusioned as time goes on, which should be a good thing except in the Burgereich it means they get more fascist because one time a communist corrected them on twitter about some historical fact

I feel like targeting politically active people who already have some allegiance is a waste of time when there are millions of people without a political allegiance who are much easier to sway (most of the time)
Unless you can easily infiltrate leadership, there's not much you can do. Libs generally aren't going to be swayed if their leadership isn't on board.
Imo the best adult targets for radicalization are people who haven't quite identified their own politics, but are in a position to benefit tremendously from socialism or even just progressive ideas. Everyone else is a waste of time, you'll often find them digging in deeper the more you try so it requires a lot of subtlety and time.
The libs who can be convinced will often convince themselves over time anyway. Sometimes you can speed it up, but again that can sometimes backfire. People will often regress into their comfort zone instead of confronting the levels of cognitive dissonance that can come with radicalization. I think that's probably why it's easier to get people who don't engage with politics/ideology much at all, but already think the US sucks. They don't have to undo an existing idea so much as process a new one, which is always easier.
