The candidate wasn't bad, at least not as bad as 2016. The process was bad. The Democratic primaries have been suspicious for a long time - so they aren't trustworthy.

Don't forget all the Democratic shakiness, just because of the Republican shakiness. Democrats needed to gain trust.

Do you think that this is an import from the US kind of thing, or more of a global trend?

Do the doors open away from each other? So that you can m9ve stuff from one to the other?

I have a 2-in-1 due to space restrictions.

There is a small chance the bit T's ego leads him away from being told what to do, and following plans.

You'll have more elections. It's up to you to make them still mean something.

I think that first you have to start by admitting two things:

1. Americans did win their/your election
2. Americans have l9st faith in their democratic institutions

After that, you can look at why the Democratic parties fail to appeal to Americans, and try to reform them.

If you go outside of democracy to gain democracy, then you probably lose what's left of your democracy.

Or you know, you could not focus on race, and just insult Americans as a group ... oh wait, is that your insult?

I have no problems with the action, and I have no problems with his attitude.

The effort to isolate Russia is an acceptable result of the Russian violent invasion. Russian citizens are not to blame for their nation's behaviour, but they do share responsibility.

Removing contributes from the maintainers list is not an extreme action, but it is important as a statement.

As for not feeling the need to defend the Russian citizens, it is nearly righteous for people from nation's that have been bullied by their neighbours.

He went beyond that. "As a Finn, do you really expect me to up in arms to support the Russians..."

Bravo, slow-clap.

US legal mechanisms for internationally enforcing US law are not like domestic enforcement mechanisms. The scenarios that the pro-China folks here are talking about involve a (completely unrealistic) switch in Taiwanese allegiance, that would make US economic enforcement less relevant, and US military enforcement a serious international risk.

There are just a lot of tankies commenting, and you have to be able to interpret their logic.

Do you think China could soak enough capacity to get TSMC to turn away from all of its major customers? Isn't most of their industrial design focused on consumer products with automaton, not high end chips? Are there many high end Chinese chip designs?
