    The punk subreddit is absolutely filled with really really stupid liberals so yeah this checks out.

    You could probably start /r/realpunk or something and police it properly by kicking out libs and it'd end up really good.

    r/punk is possibly the saddest subreddit I've browsed when I was still active on the site. I was expecting a lot of new or underappreciated punk artists I could discover, but instead it turned out to be a circlejerk about their favorite handful of big names from the 80s. Disappointing.

    I never hear a woman, someone who is LGBTQ or a POC say “both sides”. If you “both sides” this election that tells me you are devoid of empathy…

    I....I just can't.

      Ah yes, there goes the "It's only the privileged who have the capacity to unequivocally reject endorsing genocide" take.

      I am black, transfeminine, non-binary, and pansexual, so if I told this lib that I am one of these """"both sides"""" (plot twist: they're on the same side) people who they are thinking about, I know for sure that they'd immediately be scratched.

      They never hear anyone say it because they are surrounded by dumb libs IRL, I highly doubt they know a lot of principled activists or radicals

      Almost. Same Jerry Brown, but a different administration and different century.

      Harris was only 14 years old when California Uber Alles was released.

    "Think of this election like a bus ride. You’ve got three busses: one takes you half way home, but you need to walk the rest of the way in the rain. The second takes you 75 miles in the wrong direction. The third never actually leaves the station. Which bus are you taking?

    If you wanna argue that walking halfway home in the rain sucks, instead of acknowledging that the other two options are significantly worse then you’re the fucking problem. Shut the fuck up and get on the bus."

      This isn't far off the puzzle of my commute, and it turned out the answer to that was bike.

      At this point it's one bus will take you 75 miles in the wrong direction and the other bus will take you 75 miles in the wrong direction but the driver will drive more slowly and spend the entire time telling the passengers to stop complaining, the bus is too headed in the right direction and you're just too stupid to see it.

          If only someone had had the foresight to anticipate Beetlejuice's run for the presidency sadness. Maybe if we vote hard this time, next time the Republicans will choose someone whom we can discuss without manifesting anything!

      I'll shamelessly repeat myself from another thread because the libs don't appreciate my genius i want to. Context is "i was fucking tired of all the effin bus analogies in that thread so i made my own

      Living thru this election is being strapped in a burning swerving greyhound bus and both drivers are fighting over the intercom about illegal trans-immigrant surgery instead of watching the road the intercom is broken but no one's listening anyway we're all screaming at the drivers cuz we're crushing bodies left and right and anyway our hairs on fucking fire and then we realize (holy shit neither of these assholes will stop the bus) and we start struggling but the belts are too tight or maybe they're the only thing keeping us from flying out the side and then while we're fighting and burning we look out the window and we see a guy on the sidewalk and he's holding a sign

      BE

      REASONABLE

      I wish the democrats were even that useful. The analogy is broken immediately.

      Think of the election as a Bus route from source, S, to Target, T. a directed graph G=(V,E), where V is the set of vertices (nodes) and E is the set of edges. Each edge (i,j)∈E has an associated non-negative cost (or length) cij

      Let xij​ be a binary variable that equals 1 if edge (i,j) is included in the shortest path, and 0 otherwise.

      Minimize ∑​_(i,j)∈E [cij​xij​]

      Subject to:

      ∑_j:(s,j)∈E[xsj]−∑_i:(i,s)∈E [xis]=1

      ∑_i:(i,t)∈E [xit]−∑_j:(t,j)∈E [xtj]=−1

      ∑_i:(i,k)∈E [xik]−∑_j:(k,j)∈E [xkj]=0∀k∈V∖{s,t}

      xij∈{0,1}∀(i,j)∈E

      nerd erm actually in the scenario where the train doesn't leave the station, it's never specified that it starts raining. me personally, I would rather walk the full distance without rain than half the distance with rain
