R loves to make voting harder under the auspices of “fraud prevention”.

They say, while their supporters are the ones committing all of the fraud.

They're against anyone else indoctrinating children.

Crimea and Sevastopol both had majority votes for independence in 1991.

The submarine dock was in Sevastopol, which is Russian-occupied Ukraine rather than Russia.

I can’t wrap my head around how people can ignore all those red flags

They use threats and urgency to pressure people into paying faster that they realise it's a scam.

I only ever read one, and all I remember of that was some kids being chased into a church by some demons, who then burn it down to get to them. The kids are put on trial for "forcing" the demons to burn the church, and they have to convince their lawyer not to throw the case because he'll be executed if he wins.

The cynical “Don’t idolize your politicians” line doesn’t teach people to read the tea leaves and pick better leadership. It just teaches them to throw up your hands and assume everyone is the same.

Saying all politicians are the same just rewards the worst politicians because it means they face no electoral penalty for their failings, and the better ones gain no electoral advantage from not stooping to those lows.

Does STAR have the problem of score voting that not giving every candidate either the maximum or minimum score (effectively approval voting) is effectively throwing half your vote away?

(also it looks like there's a glitch because your comment appeared four times)

Heard an interview a while ago with a founder of Just Stop Oil who clearly said he doesn't care whether they even stop climate change (around 40:00-43:00).

What does Vincent van Gogh have to do with the current state of the petrol industry?

It's famous, so attacking it gets attention.

"Trump, I think that dictator is an imperialist! His Siberia is colonised, his Chechnya is colonised, and I'm pretty sure that Belarus is colonised!"

"A dictator who has lots of colonies is less likely to invade countries than a dictator whose colony supplies are low"
