"trick"

lol

Are you thinking of toll booths with arms that raise to meet you through only after you pay maybe?

These are just cameras on top of the road that capture every license plate and either charge your account or mail you a bill based on your plate, if you don't have a valid plate you don't pay. It's also illegal to drive without a valid plate so they just try not to get caught I suppose.

You're so beyond hope.

You are not an ally. Today it's an ad, tomorrow it's a law, and you'll defend it as "not as bad" until you're so far right you're pushing for imprisonment because it's not as bad as execution.

Democrats pull left leaning people right, that's their primary function.

I don't want to defeat republicans, I want to defeat both.

Well, we are trying to organize around independent candidates that actually support our values, while you scream at us "DO YOU WANT TRUMP? THAT'S HOW YOU GET TRUMP" and insist on voting for Democrats, even when their candidate is not even viable.

You are supporting genocides, militarized police, the US jail system, US imperialism, etc, while calling yourself an ally and telling us to sacrifice our values and our bodies to protect you from Trump.

You throw us under the bus and blame us for not supporting your flavor of evil.

Instead of sending you a bunch of mint when the recipe needs 5 leaves, they send you 5 leaves. The idea is less waste.

The 5 leaves are wrapped in plastic and cost more than a bunch, so you're not "wasting" a bunch of mint you won't use, but you're wasting plastic and money.

It's for rich people with nothing to do.

I tried a couple of these companies when they first came out and they had offers through my credit card that made it very cheap. The recipes were alright, but it was fun to cook them with the kids as they didn't get bored with the prep work before we can actually cook, but they aren't cheap and they aren't less wasteful. I can eat left overs, I can't eat the extra plastic.

Except Americans aren't willing to poke them, they're just willing to replace them with "lesser evil" billionaires and Epstein class neo-liberal monsters. No revolution on the horizon, just slow fascism down and pat themselves on the back.

How are you this thick?

You get doom ( and full Linux desktop) running on a built in infotainment system. You called it meh.

They're not bad at politics, you're just bad at reading their intentions.

I've lost people to Biden's genocide while he let police attack students at peaceful sit ins and had reporters dragged out of the press room in cuffs for asking questions and I will not have a braindead liberal tell me I should have voted for KH who said she'd do nothing different and campaigned on "most lethal military" and thanked Dick Satan Chaney for his service to "stop fascism".

The democrats are a fascist capitalist party, they've already openly abandoned trans people, and you'll yell at them next for not voting for their own slaughter.

You don't put up a viable candidate, we have no obligation to vote for someone promising to kill our loved ones instead of someone promising to kill yours. We offered to come together and vote for a viable candidate and you told us "WHAT YOU WANT TRUMP?"

You should wonder why they're okay with democrats of today instead of doubling down that these ghouls must be sane now.

I don't need to look at your other comments that came after, this is the context of you being downvoted and asking people why they're being assholes to you, it's because you were an asshole.

You made an mp3 player from scratch? What you think that makes you cool?

I designed and built a fully functional smartphone from scratch. Designed the multilayer motherboard, fabricated my own silicon, developed a custom ARM-compatible processor, wrote the bootloader, ported the Linux kernel, implemented the hardware drivers, designed the cellular modem and RF circuitry, built the touchscreen from raw materials, wrote my own operating system, and hand carved the enclosure. Then I realized I didn't want to depend on cellular providers, so I designed, built, and launched my own telecommunications satellite constellation, constructed a ground station, and implemented a proprietary global communications protocol. Naturally, I also built my own semiconductor fabrication facility because outsourcing the chips felt like cheating. The phone works pretty well, although I'm still debugging Bluetooth.

Mp3 player, that's so meh.

Liberals are not our allies, we don't owe you our lives.

By the third paragraph, I realized I'm reading a chatgpt response.

Power tripping mod upset I called democrats fascist light...

You're so cool, and a 1337 haxor as well.

No, you were a prick because you minimized what they accomplished and repeatedly called it meh while bragging about what you could have done. You were an asshole.

They didn't just get doom running, that was for fun. They listed what they got running and linked to their blog for updates.

They've spent years banning Palestinian reporters in Gaza and deleting genocide evidence... This isn't a test, they already know they can get away with it.

"it's your fault that you didn't vote for us to kill your loved ones, what idiots, you deserve them killing your loved ones"

Braindead liberals.
