Real question, why wouldn't the win95/xp version satisfy someone? Isn't it the same thing with simpler graphics?

I mean yeah, the Democratic elite seem to have utter contempt for the party base and just ignore polling. Gaza is the perfect example of this. In the lead up to the election, it was abundantly clear that Kamala's "policy" (read: doing nothing) towards Gaza was tremendously unpopular with the party base. And they just... Ignored it. There are plenty of people who withheld from voting on that issue alone.

A quote I really like; "with Democrats like these, who needs Republicans". The party is a total joke right now.

For the life of me, I can't understand how people think Russia is communist. Like, at least the PRC is nominally communist and describes itself as a communist state (even if it's not really doing communism).

But Russia? The USSR was dissolved decades ago. The Russian Federation never claimed to be communist. Are these people just stuck in the Cold War?

I got to see one at a Stellantis exhibition here in the US! Although they won't be sold here, so IDK why they brought them to a US event. They're such neat little cars.

The original Honda Insight from 2001 got 68 highway, 60 city. And it had all the goodies you'd want in a "modern" car like airbags, aircon, heat, 2 relatively roomy seats, etc. Close to the Doodlebug's best possible mpg with twice the passengers.

Unfortunately, after 20 years of improvement in auto design, material science, etc, the new Honda Insight in 2022 actually has notably worse city /highway mpg from the original, because it's so much bigger.

I guess my point is all the innovation in the world won't fix the fundamental problem that people want bigger and bigger cars?

Idk, Dutch micro cars are pretty comfortable. They're quieter, safer for pedestrians, and environmentally friendly. Had a chance to use one last time I was in the Netherlands. The American mindset of "it has to be a giga-truck or it's bad" really sucks.

And yet, actions taken by the UHC CEO have doubtlessly caused far, far more suffering and death. Why aren't you criticizing him?

We're saying landlords are scum, not that we need to become the CCP.

I'm in a ton of leftist circles and I can confirm we absolutely say that

Tim Walz made some gross tweet mourning this guy and calling it a tragic loss. Kinda underlines the whole "Democratic establishment is out of touch" line we've been hearing since the election

Eh. Myself and most of my friends are salaried workers that are making okay income for our area, but we can't even dream of buying even small houses in our city that easily start at 1.5 Million. Meanwhile, most of these houses are owned by rich retirees. It's just my experience, but there are plenty of groups I'll feel bad for before them.
