To be clear: these were policy proposals, not actual policies put in place by either candidate.

Star Wars came after Dune. Star Wars is just Dune for people who listen to jizz.
I mean, it would ensure there are no more classified documents there
Democrats won’t, they’re too busy “taking the high road”. And by “high road” I mean “bribe big enough to live comfortably in Thailand for the rest of their lives”
If you look at many people’s material conditions during Trump and during Biden, they haven’t gotten better. You can say whatever you want about Biden’s policies, his cabinet appointments, and how much Democrats have done when they hold power, but at the end of the day it hasn’t changed most folks’ lives one bit. It might be good metric-wise, but until folks feel like they’re better off it doesn’t matter.
Also, it’s hilarious to me how much shit Republicans seem to get done even when they don’t hold the House, Senate, and White House together, but the minute Republicans get one of those, suddenly it’s “oh shit Democrats can’t do anything”. It’s like Republicans are playing with nukes and Democrats are showing up with rubber band guns.
And no, I won’t be voting for Biden, I’ll be voting third party. And I know, you think “a vote for a third party is a vote for Trump”, but I don’t give a shit. I’ve been seeing this same “at least I’m not…” shit for 25 years and watching our country be sold to the highest bidder under both parties. At this point, if we can’t figure out shit out, we deserve to be razed to the ground.
Some folks have been screaming this for the last 4 years!
I love it! Thank you for all you do!
The Bidens are exactly the kind of people that would have said that Stonewall “went too far” and that they should have “peacefully protested” while using slurs to belittle everyone that was actually there.
I wonder if it has anything to do with Russia
Yup, AIPAC spent $14m to oust him in a primary. And rich folks voted him out. Nobody is surprised.
“I came here tonight because when you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible, you piece of shit”
If they were competent then neither party would agree to the debate.
It’s hilarious to me that 40 years ago this person would have been solidly Republican. Now he’s a “moderate Democrat”. This term now means “conservative that doesn’t like Trump saying the quiet part out loud”
Well, Dune at least does a half-assed attempt at explaining how this is a projection of a possible human future. Star Wars didn’t.
That being said, I wouldn’t call Dune “crunchy” sci fi at all. It’s a perfect example of why fantasy gets lumped in with sci fi so much (which, honestly, I hate)
The same thing that happened to Digg
Hot take: Star Wars is not sci fi. It’s space western at best.
What, what “centrists” are saying that?
Biden ran on a bunch of popular proposed policies, but then got into office and suddenly a lot of those policies “weren’t practical”. My point is that I don’t care about what Biden says, his actions speak much louder.
