Michigan went to Trump in both 2016 and 2024.

I do see some downvotes and challenges true but there is too large of a percentage that are blaming everyone but themselves for putting us in this position by dissuading people from voting this last election. I’m sure a large part of it is just the tankie instances brigading though.

Likewise your opinion is dogshit to me. I’m glad the Palestinians are doing so much better under Trump. Blocking you now tankie.

Tankies like yourself have done the most damage by dissuading people from voting for Democrats and giving us the shitstorm we have now. Get fucked.

Nah. It’s just fucking hilarious that you would say something that retarded unironically.

B-but what if I just want to be like 90% of Lemmies and bitch about bOtH sIDeS and how the “Democrats are 98% Hitler” but literally not want do the bare minimum (voting) so that Republicans can win again and I get to keep bitching?

The United States had a good run. I hope I see the entire West Coast secede in my lifetime.

Unfortunately it’s land that votes, not people.

Maybe actually take two seconds to look next time before deciding to comment denying their existence.

Would that I could. If it were me alone I probably would have left the country years ago. But I have my husband and he is close to his family. They are already unhappy that we don’t live in the same state as them. (My own family are pieces of Trumper Evangelical shit and I don’t speak to them anyway)

You’re so fucking delulu that you think Democrats are 98% Hitler. Lmao.

For me it’s the sound of the garage door opening.

Fun design exercise though.

There are two possibly three in this thread alone. Stop being intentionally myopic.

Meme mentions republicans ruining the country. Know before I even click on it that the comments will all be about “B-but the democrats are just as b-bad!”

Typical Lemmy.

Yes it is because the degree of damage caused are different orders of magnitude.

While I’m glad he won and the message this sends to Democrat leadership, I think making this claim: “It seems the pendulum is swinging back towards left-wing politics” is very premature.

He won a Democrat primary in a deep blue city in a blue state, the same that elected AOC.

I don’t think this really signals much other than, yes NYC likes leftist candidates, as we already know from AOC. This may or may not signal any kind of larger pattern about American political feeling as a whole.

If the same doesn’t happen in cities and states across the country, it will just be disregarded as a fluke.

It’s not guaranteed the employer will contribute. Half of them (including mine) do not. It’s simply a tax deferred portfolio in that case.

I would have thought that my personal gay porn consumption would have shot Oregon to the top. Nice to know I’m just a droplet in a big wide ocean.

It’s actually the opposite. When the oxygen binds to the iron it changes from Fe+2 to Fe+3 so the binding of oxygen to the iron in hemoglobin is an oxidation process. At that point it can’t take more oxygen until it releases it in a reduction reaction.

The term “oxidation” is originally derived from reactions where a substance combines with oxygen but has since been generalized to any reaction where an electron is given up. So “oxidation” is the broader term and “oxygenation” is the specific oxidation reaction that results in binding oxygen.
