I'll take that as a "let's change the topic"
@Dusty Morgan That's perfectly tacky. I like it.
technically, none of them are playing politics. They are doing what will best help their bottom line and business. (and this is changing the topic lol) https://www.newyorker.com/tech/elements/origin-silicon-valley-dysfunctional-attitude-toward-hate-speech It is a bit of an oldie, but I think it accurately captures why Silicon has such warped attitude towards speech.
This turtle is awesome. My favorite animals of all time!

@pratel Yeah that poor woman. It is perfect for a good laugh.
Yeah, because Trump would be a blatant copy-cat lol
That would be hilarious if it did happen.
It's not going to happen.
I know.
Pence gets more mileage being president himself.
But it would be like... big FU to the left.
Sorry I am still trying to stop saying liberal.
Kinda hard.
If you want a big FU to the liberals, go help get Republicans re-elected in the midterms.
Honestly, I doubt Pence would do that though. Despite Pence being more right-wing than Trump, I would see him as a much better president
I am just saying it would be funny.
Could agree.
Though it would expose a bit of an exploit.
Left wing would be so mad.
The Republicans winning the midterms would get them really mad.
We are winning the mid-terms.
That one would actually count though.
I'm not convinced.
Why do you think they are ramping up their hateful messages.
Because it rallies the base?
If they felt like they were not in trouble, they wouldn't be rallying.
Because the base is what matters in low turnout elections like special elections and midterms?
They would be gloating.
They are gloating.
It's basically copying the GOP playbook of the 2010's when the Tea Party was still a thing
Rally the base to the limit
You know why I think the Republicans will win?
Because they are starting to talk about impeachment again.
Though, admittedly, the Democrats would probably have a higher hurdler because the redistricting from the 2010 census severely handicapped their chances of winning a house seat in the senate
Maybe. But I wouldn't get overconfident.
That will rally the voters of Republicans.
I'm not sure.
That doesn't make sense though
CNN is helping Republicans by talking about impeachment of Trump. Republicans don't want that, so they rally behind each other to voter booths.
