and you’d be the stupidest person in the room if you did.

the military might be the only thing that stops him. Hence why i didn’t include it.

But i have no idea. Literally every other duty, and every other branch will be under the whims of the stupidest person in america right now.

you realize places without elections still have them, they just mean nothing right?

he doesnt even have to touch the military, just has to certify fraudulent voter slates, that’s it.

trump just barely failed to steal it last time, this time he has the fucking supervillain crackpot team behind him.

If he wants to do it, all he has to do is make the call.

He has the executive, he has the house, he has the senate, he will most likely completely have the supreme court, there is literally nobody to tell him no anymore.

anywhere from not really, to literally world war 3.

trump is a loose cannon.

We do not win here.

if the implied point of this post is to demonstrate that hurricanes have gotten worse over time due to climate change, yes this is objectively wrong, even if the underlying data is true.

Just because you have the correct solution, doesn’t mean you calculated it correctly.

To give an example here, let’s say i have a set of 99 numbers, 1-99 and lets say i add one more number, 100, but oops i accidentally add two more zeroes so now it’s actually 10,000

If i take an average of the extremes (not perfectly analogous here but i’m demonstrating a simple point) of 1, and 10,000 then the average is going to be 5,000 roughly. However most of those data points are going to live within 1-99 so this is an extremely incorrect “demonstration” of the effect here.

The primary problem here being that we don’t really know what the direct effects of climate change are going to be, just that we know what it will probably do, and if this is the first significant event of this category, we’re about to find out why fat fingering the 0 twice is going to be really unfortunate.

Now if the point is that “hurricane bigger than other hurricane lol” sure, but that’s a stupid point to make. Again my original example of joplin vs el reno tornados. It’s entirely arbitrary for no reason. It’d be like if i stopped you on the side of the road, picked up two rocks, and went “these sure are rocks aren’t they?”

and? It’s wrong. At least link to a source with relevant data or science on it. Shitposting and memes isn’t going to help.

Conservatives are literally pretending that biden isn’t giving places aid right now, after the hurricane, i don’t think this meme is going to stop that from happening lol.

What do you mean? This shows the differences between the two.

yeah but i don’t really see how that matters. Weather is extremely complicated, and unless hurricanes are a lot more consistent than i think they are, this is a lot like comparing two random tornados together, and then being surprised when one of them is a lot worse than the other.

If that’s what we’re doing we should compare the tri state tornado to any tornado in the last 10 years and suddenly tornados must be a lot less dangerous now than back when the tri state tornado hit.

It’s an entirely arbitrary mechanism of comparison. It’s just wrong.

Even if the point is trying to convey the difference between different storms, i can pick up two different rocks, they’re both different rocks. You can’t really glean something from 2 data points effectively.

The different categories are the point.

are they? storms are not like a magic black box that outputs a specific strength of storm, the point i’m making is that we should be comparing every storm we have since the beginning of recorded history and comparing them to what we’re seeing now, rather than taking one storm from like a decade ago, and comparing it to another now. This is a completely arbitrary description of climate change.

this can’t be an accurate or reasonably accurate depiction, these are two completely different storms in a different category after all.

This is like me comparing the joplin tornado to the el reno tornado.

(for those that don’t know the joplin tornado was an extremely erratic EF/F 5 tornado that was incredibly strong and just sort of showed up and then lingered over a particular area causing immense destruction, whereas el reno was a massive, very powerful tornado, that was collectively rated to be about an EF/F 3 i believe, although the core itself, and numerous shenanigans it pulled including sub vorticies or whatever the correct term is were much stronger, causing strong localized damage)

i could see that being the case, i would expect it to be the case, but judging by how much the CEO of mozilla gets paid, idk how long that will last…

Although the open source nature of it would be highly beneficial, it might give grounds for google to be a literal monopoly, so maybe that would be productive even. Who knows.

as a non google astro turfing shill (you’ll have to take my word on this one lmao.)

I kinda get it, 80% of mozillas revenue comes from google? If that monopoly case doesn’t kill mozilla, this might.

I could see google trying to pull some shit like this.

yeah that would be interesting. China and the UN seats are probably going to be the most interesting consequences.

I feel like ukraine would absolutely pull a peace treaty with china, to some extent. The US does a lot of trade, so while they’re bordered, i don’t think it would be super significant, as long as they had a deal worked out. Unless china started fighting with russia lol.

global trade would absolutely be fucked as well. Oil prices would be wacky, grain would be wacky, etc…

that would be very funny i’m not sure what the global implications are of ukraine taking over russia, but i’m certainly not going to stop them from trying lol.

this is true, we should just move to florida to engage in “voting fraud”

texas and florida are two sides of the same coin i think…

damn, what a fucking weird place down there hey?

At least that’s where they all go to violate OSHA rules, and make us more money. I’ll take what i can.

i know that part, that ones a classic, i think there are a lot more tankies or “pipelined” tankies than we think on the left, but i also don’t know shit so that’s just conjecture lol.

People from texas are really goofy though. Something about that state. It’s the florida of the inland states. Even though it’s technically not inland.

i feel like a tankie would just refer to joe as genocide joe, but maybe i’m too internet pilled?
