Also important to note that the operator of that site has been editing archived pages, so who the fuck knows if anything still matches the original.
But yes, the malicious hijacking of people’s browser to launch a DDoS attack is worse.
Oh, you want 20th century again? You didn’t like it in my original comment, but back to Arrow’s Impossibility Theorem, proven definitively in 1950.
Arrow’s impossibility theorem is a key result in social choice theory showing that no ranked-choice procedure for group decision-making can satisfy the requirements of rational choice.[1] Specifically, American economist Kenneth Arrow showed no such rule can satisfy independence of irrelevant alternatives, the principle that a choice between two alternatives A and B should not depend on the quality of some third, unrelated option, C.[2][3][4]
The result is often cited in discussions of voting rules,[5] where it shows no ranked voting rule can eliminate the spoiler effect.[6][7][8] This result was first shown by the Marquis de Condorcet, whose voting paradox showed the impossibility of logically-consistent majority rule; Arrow’s theorem generalizes Condorcet’s findings to include non-majoritarian rules like collective leadership or consensus decision-making.[1]
Then a bit later, this important part;
Rated voting rules, where voters assign a separate grade to each candidate, are not affected by Arrow’s theorem.[17][18][19] Arrow initially asserted the information provided by these systems was meaningless and therefore could not be used to prevent paradoxes, leading him to overlook them.[20] However, Arrow would later describe this as a mistake,[21][22] admitting rules based on cardinal utilities (such as score and approval voting) are not subject to his theorem.[23][24]
The Spoiler Effect is when a voting system fails independence of irrelevant alternatives. This is what drives two party dominance, after all, if you’re punished for voting third party, third parties become actively harmful. This is why the major support for most third parties comes from their ideological opponents. Jill Stein being super cozy with Russia and Republican donors being the key recent example.
I’m falling for the mathematical truth.
We’ve known that Ordinal voting was bad since the 1780s, The Mathematician, philosopher and Girondian, Marie Jean Antoine Nicolas Caritat, the Marquis de Condorcet, wrote the seminal work on it; Essay on the Application of Analysis to the Probability of Majority Decisions (Essai sur l’application de l’analyse à la probabilité des décisions rendues à la pluralité des voix). Found here in the original French
We haven’t fixed anything, because the voting method itself is broken. In any First Past the Post election, you have the Spoiler Effect, where just a few votes for a third party can guarantee that the person furthest from that candidate on the political spectrum wins. Look at Ross Perot securing Clinton’s win in 1992 and Ralph Nader securing Bush’s win in 2000.
None of that shit is fixed because we’re still using the broken system, a system that wasn’t actually ever really designed as such, it was just the default easiest way to do things and enables minority rule.
It’s a consequence of Ordinal voting methods, particularly First Past the Post.
Arrow’s Impossibility Theorium spells it out. https://electowiki.org/wiki/Arrow’s_impossibility_theorem
The tldr is that any ranked voting system will result in two parties.
This is really because all ranked voting systems are built around the word “Or”.
You support A or B. Which means that A and B have incentive to demonize each other, because every vote for A is one less potential vote for B.
The solution is abandoning Ordinal voting for a Cardinal system.
The simplest method is Approval.
Approval voting is a single-winner electoral system where each voter may select (“approve”) any number of candidates. The winner is the candidate approved by the largest number of voters. It is distinct from plurality voting, in which a voter may choose only one option among several (where the option with the most selections is declared the winner). It is related to score voting in which voters give each option a score on a scale, and the option with the highest total of scores is selected.
Another option is STAR.
It’s been deliberately designed to make for better election results.
While Bill is a rapist, neither he not Hillary are stupid.
Epstein was running an obvious blackmail operation.
The Clintons seem to have met Epstein around the time frame when Bill was being scrutinized for not keeping it in his pants.
They also seem to have actually cut ties with Epstein after his conviction.
Bill did borrow the plane in those years before the conviction. So there are still questions to be answered, but I still don’t think Bill did anything on the plane.
I don’t know about Crockett. She’s taken money from AIPAC.
There’s a reason why the Republicans want her to be the Dem nominee.
She’s been good on some subjects, but there’s that nagging doubt.
If there were no better option then yes, vote for her. But there is a better option.
Is that a super soaker full of piss? Because we need more of that.
I always saw Greene as a true believer, she believes horrible hate filled shit, but she actually believes.
The thing is, her hate filled beliefs don’t match up with what MAGA actually believes, which is that certain white men get to make up the rules as they go along.
It just took her being shut out for the disconnect to appear.
She still believes in the hatred, but doesn’t like the constant lying of those in her party.
Fun how they just tack on the name Brunel without the added context of who he was.
Brunel was Epstein’s business partner. They owned MC2 modeling together. Epstein was the hidden partner, thus E=MC2. That right there is just another reason to hate these people.
Anyway, Brunel was the sort of guy who always had some date rape drugs on hand, and used them constantly.
As a note, Trump owned Trump Model Management, and hosted his own underage sex parties with random celebrities invited. But none of these parties had music.
There’s a clip of Luther Campbell talking about how he noped the fuck out of a Trump party at Mar a Lago because he thought the girls were too young.
For those who don’t know Luther Campbell is also known as Uncle Luke, in a song titled “Me So Horny” he claimed to be a dog in heat and a freak without a leash.
He likely heard about acid attacks and then saw that vinegar is an acid, without understanding that it’s a very weak acid that is usually then watered down to be safe.
It’s nice that you think that, Vance has zero charisma. Without Peter Thiel, Vance would still be a nobody in Ohio with a different name, but still fucking couches.
Vance might be next in line if Trump dies, but that’s literally the only way for him to sit in the big chair.
He’s just as disposable to Trump as Pence was, and Trump who is jealous of power, has actually put in effort to keep anyone from being named heir apparent, because that would mean sharing even a scrap of power.
No, Trump will keep pitting his followers against each other until he dies, at which point he doesn’t care if the world ends.
It’s the reason his kids aren’t involved in the administration this time around. If Trump is unwilling to share power with his own children, what chance does a spineless sack like Vance have?
If you haven’t heard about it, that 50k is actually a debt trap. See, they get the money, but if they aren’t perfect little Gestapo thugs for five full years, they have to pay it all back. Poor performance reviews can also trigger a mandatory repayment, even if they aren’t fired.
John Casablancas. You can learn more about their relationship here;
Also Roy Cohn, who is mentioned in that article, but Cohn was his own sort of monster as well.
He’s talked about here;
That’s part one, part two is here,
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OA0TvB3azGM
Can’t find part two on iheart, so you get youtube. Part one on youtube is missing like 10 minutes, so Iheart is better… Or your podcast app of choice.
I doubt that part as well. But these jackasses don’t have normal social circles.
Trump will never be friends with the help, so musk is one of his only options.
That is the part that’s making me doubt here, also it was a call from August 2020? I’m going to need more here.
Make no mistake, Trump both raped and Trafficked children, he Trafficked his daughter to John Casablancas.
Saying nothing while a baby is murdered is also completely in character for Trump. But there’s a lot to doubt here.
Still, investigate the claim, then proceed according.
Conservativism itself says that everyone is part of a strict social hierarchy, and that those above have complete power over those below.
Which makes the “ideology” incredibly attractive to a certain type of predator.

The claim is that a container ship could be used as a drone carrier.
This claim was used to justify attacks against Iranian shipping companies.
The truth is that it is possible to use a container ship this way, and the US might not see it coming in time to actually do anything about it.
