Mate I don’t doubt it but skip the media and pull out direct trump quotes for them.

He hasn’t seen a dictator or a white supremacist he doesn’t like.

You can pull a million quotes of him being an absolute asshole lunatic.

Are they not listening to the words he’s saying?

At what point do you say you are actually attracted to authoritarianism because you’re supporting the party that’s promises you that that’s what they will do.

How could the answer be yes when they’re supporting a person that deliberately incited political violence on Jan 6? And celebrated violence when it happened against political opponents or adjacents?

The vast majority of the benefit comes from the fact that they are bifacial not vertical.

In fact depending on the weather a standard mount but with bifacial panels will outperform the vertical.

This guy here does a very thorough comparison.

This is the classic pincer manoeuvre of the right and mainstream media: the left wing candidate is always both too left and not left enough at the same time.

And they reinforce it with shitty opinion pieces of “all sides”. Anything to minimise left wing gains and keep the ratchet going.

They’ll swallow the party line and that’s all there is to it.

TBF McCain was spot on on Putin in a way that Obama was not.

The more likely scenario after the takeover is animal farm, not utopia.

I can’t imagine any system of influence running an exposed ssh without some further protection from connection abuse like fail2ban.

The benefit of the doubt logic here Is as follows:

Mozilla thinks that the ad supported model of the web is essential to continuing to function.

Mozilla knows that the vast majority of installs have an adblocker installed.

In order to keep the ecosystem healthy they’re exploring ethical advertising options.

Counterpoint:

The vast majority of their income comes from the largest advertising company in the world - alphabet.

They need to be seen to at least make some efforts to not murder the advertising model through their mere existence while not pissing off the community too much.

I disagree with most of those points but even if I grant them this still doesn’t answer how they think the party that hates government will run it better.

We saw what 15 years of Tory rule did for England. “They can’t be worse” - you’ll be surprised.

See how much an exploit for iPhone vs Android will run you in the open market.

Also how fast a discovered security hole will be patched and distributed to the fleet between the two systems.

Most Android phones will never get a patch, some will get it 6 - 12 months later and very few within the month.

Also one is run by an advertising company.
