We assume that 41.7 million women strictly adhere to the B4 movement.

You cannot make that assumption. That was the point of my post some 5-6 posts up.

Korea IS A monolith when it comes to a number of factors. Culturally Korea is the antithesis of “diverse”. My point is that America is nothing similar to Korea culturally to pull this off.

Further just because they voted for Kamala is not a marker or evidence that they would even be on board with this type of response/campaign. So your number is flawed from the get go.

And the premise is self defeating. If you’re refusing to have kids and teach them your beliefs, all you’ll have are kids that belong to the other party. You will effectively just breed your ideals out of existence. This is one of the primary reasons that most religions are still around, they tend to (statistically) have van loads of children.

This also ignores the fact that those who would be willing to participate in such a campaign were likely to never have or have few children. Where-as those who disagree with this type of stance are going to be the religious types that statistically have more children anyway.

So let’s take your example and apply more relevant controls on it… You’d at best get maybe 30% participation. And that 30% would be most likely to only represent 0-2 children over their lifetime. I bet after accounting for that you’re closer to maybe a decrease of 10-20% birthrate… and you’d simply breed your ideal out of society in a matter of a generation or two.

Once again. No. What lost the democrats the win was Kamala. Biden refusing to step down earlier so proper primaries could be done (not sure why they didn’t just hold primaries ANYWAY). The democrat party proved in 2020 that nobody wanted or even like Kamala (https://www.vox.com/2019/11/20/20953284/kamala-harris-polls-2020-election or lookup any poll from 2019). Her inability to actually talk about her platform (and how she’ll attain her actual goals) and answer the question being asked lost her a lot too. A hard focus on issues that were not “top of mind” for the majority of the country didn’t help either. Not some conspiracy that a handful of republicans are pulling the strings everywhere. People were simply unmotivated to vote for someone who couldn’t answer how she’d do any of what she claimed to want to do.

Regardless of what you think the border IS a valid problem.

Now there’s some magic plan? Either they’re stupid or masterminds. You can’t really have it both ways. Nobody is out there convincing people that women aren’t human and have no rights. Stop with your nonsense.

Yeah no. Continuing this rhetoric is exactly how the Democrats will continue to lose elections. Making vast assumptions about men and telling them they’re lesser is what drove away voters for the past 4 years. The vast majority of men have no desire or whim to do any of what you claim.

Edit: Just realized the swipe typo. Corrected.

I feel like this is probably pretty effective. I feel like it should be a thing.

It isn’t. They will simply import women from other countries. And this election alone proves the fact that all women are not a monolithic group. You’re not going to get a majority to follow this trend.

You’re moving goalposts. You claimed that we’d pay MORE (dollar on the dime). Drilling locally means supply increases considerably. Supply going up with demand staying in place means price drops, there’s no reason to pay “dollar on the dime”… and doing so would actually mean price increases.

Also, most exports are of the crude for processing where we purchase the refined for use. We had a decent deal with Canada to make a boatload of oil export/import in that exact purpose. But then Biden shut down the pipeline that would have made that much more efficient.

and sending out own soldiers would have given voters a continued vested interest in the war.

As a veteran… You’re volunteering right?

He’ll start buying russian natural resources at a dollar on the dime

How does that make any fucking sense when he wants to drill on US land? Do you guys even think about the shit you post before you post it?

You said you’re using OPNSense for routing… Just keep it up to date and you’ll be fine.

If you’re worried about your ap, I think you can set omada APS to restart nightly… Though I could be misremembering.

Every network manufacturer has had some CVE for something.

the first is a lot of personal risk; the 2nd is minimal risk

This flies in the face of the article though… it expounds quite a lot that it’s hard to sue for this situation at all. With the reviewing hospital doing the procedures in house quite often as they get referrals all the time.

But because the delays and discharges occurred in an area of the hospital classified as an emergency room, lawyers said that Texas law set a much higher burden of proof: “willful and wanton negligence.”

It’s clearly NOT a lot of risk since the burden of proof for that lawsuit would be effectively insurmountable. To the point that the no lawyer is willing to take the case according to the article. If it’s that hard to put a lawsuit together on the matter, why would a doctor be scared about conducting an abortion that was already covered as an exception to the law already? I’m not seeing it. I’m not buying the excuse.

It’s not like sepsis is undocumented and unknown to the medical community. It’s not hard to justify the required treatment through literal decades of medical cases that have been studied and there’s specific exemptions in place for medical necessity in TX (and most[qualifier only because I have checked all] other states with a “ban”). The only way this situation make sense is if these places didn’t actually have the doctor on hand/staffed and it was some other medical provider that didn’t have power to actually make the decision. In which case there’s a whole 'nother bag of worms of a problem that needs to be addressed. If it’s not negligence on the doctor’s behalf (whether that be due to laziness,ignorance,fear, whatever), it’s because there wasn’t a doctor at all like an RN calling the shots. But the article claims to have gone through everything and doesn’t share with us, so I have to assume the former.

This smells a lot like “cops need immunity otherwise they won’t investigate stuff”. No… they need to do their job better.

the delays at the 3rd hospital

My statement/arguments were more for the first two visits. I feel (and I’m no doctor) was that it was already too late by visit 3. I don’t think she was going to make it at that point regardless.

is that they shouldn’t be hard cases

Sepsis IS ALWAYS a hard case unless you catch it very very early. They delayed her significantly and she was already down the path of symptoms. I’m not sure that shrugging of the hard case of potential sepsis (for the first one that didn’t bother checking her thoroughly) and confirmed sepsis for the second hospital… is anyway at all related to the case being hard because of “abortion”.

Some said the first ER missed warning signs of infection that deserved attention. All said that the doctor at the second hospital should never have sent Crain home when her signs of sepsis hadn’t improved. And when she returned for the third time, all said there was no medical reason to make her wait for two ultrasounds before taking aggressive action to save her.

Hawkins noted that Crain had strep and a urinary tract infection, wrote up a prescription and discharged her. Hawkins had missed infections before. Eight years earlier[…]

This has nothing to do with abortion ban. This has everything to do with shitty doctors. None of this required or even remotely called for any abortion. And should that first doctor NOT have been allowed to keep their license from previous cases of being a bad doctor… A women and her child probably would be alive today.

The other facility that examined the case was also in Texas. Clearly the “ban” doesn’t stop them.

The well-resourced hospital is perceived to have more institutional support to provide abortions and miscarriage management, the doctor said. Other providers “are transferring those patients to our centers because, frankly, they don’t want to deal with them.”

Can’t blame a “ban” if there’s places that can and do legally do it.

This is shitty doctors/hospitals blaming to the law to skirt around hard cases that they simply don’t want to deal with.

But because the delays and discharges occurred in an area of the hospital classified as an emergency room, lawyers said that Texas law set a much higher burden of proof: “willful and wanton negligence.”

Now this is a shame… This is what TX should be fixing. Malpractice shouldn’t need a higher standard in an ER

All in all, I’m not sure how this is related to the abortion “ban” in any way shape or form. So why is it in the article/OP at all? Especially since in this case, it would have been covered regardless…

Section 170A.002 prohibits a person from performing, inducing, or attempting an abortion. There is an exception for situations in which the life or health of the pregnant patient is at risk. In order for the exception to apply, three factors must be met: A licensed physician must perform the abortion.
The patient must have a life-threatening condition and be at risk of death or “substantial impairment of a major bodily function” if the abortion is not performed. “Substantial impairment of a major bodily function” is not defined in this chapter.
The physician must try to save the life of the fetus unless this would increase the risk of the pregnant patient’s death or impairment.

Use anything… Mailcow or otherwise. Just don’t expose the ports on your firewall/router to connect back to you.

You are wholly wrong.

https://www.usconstitution.net/vice-presidents-constitutional-powers/

For one, constitutionally they have several additional powers that you neglected to outline, not just the one you provided. This also assumes that we’re talking about a president and vice-president who are hostile to each other and not actively working together, you know… how it originally was when #1 vote became president and #2 became vice-president, which hasn’t been a thing in over 200 years now.

For two… https://youtube.com/watch?v=81gnQ4Xo9Wc&t=12m50s

Biden says: “She helped passed all the laws being employed now. She’s a major player in everything we’ve done. Including passes of legislation which we were told we could never pass”

If she’s so “powerless” then why is the President stating that she’s been instrumental to passing all that legislation? You act like Biden wouldn’t/doesn’t listen to her. And if that is indeed what you’re asserting, then there’s no point in discussing anything further with you since the man himself said otherwise. Which does indeed include everything that he’s assigned to the vice-president over the years. I’m a bit too lazy to pull up all the cases where he’s said that himself… I’m sure we can agree that it’s happened a few times though.

The fact that you want to make some assumption that she has no power simply because the constitution doesn’t directly give her all that much in the form of power ignores the fact that Biden clearly relies on her quite heavily by his own admission. She has power. You’re bullshitting me and everyone who reads your post.

Edit: Oh! and also… you stated that tie breaks never happen. That’s funny because Kamala even exercised that power 33 times.

https://ballotpedia.org/Tie-breaking_votes_cast_by_Kamala_Harris_in_the_U.S._Senate

for something that “never happens” seems to have happened a lot. Nearly once a month for her whole term. So yes, you are wholly wrong on everything you stated outside of the tie break being one of her current powers.

It is pretty much what was answered to you, when it’s on the frontline it is very hard to know if it’s Ukrainian or Russian usage

You could collect Serial Numbers from any node that moves from inside of russian space to outside of russian space and hard block them.

This would even keep units that move from Ukraine to Russia working in the case of Ukrainian military using it.

a Harris admin will ask hard questions about stuff like lol

Harris is in power right now… Literally as we speak and has several more months. This has been going on for months already. What makes you think she’s going to do anything when she hasn’t thus-far? I’ve seen at least a half-dozen articles on similar outcomes of “Elon’s technology is aiding Russia”. For well over a year now. If she hasn’t done jack shit about it for the past 12 fucking months… and will not for the next 3 she’s still in power… What in the ever living fuck makes you think she’s going to do anything about it at all?

Edit: I recognize that Trump won’t do shit about it either. I’m not backing Trump here. Just finding it laughable that people think Kamala will either when she’s done nothing against it before.

You ran the ad hominem first buddy.

Where? So we’re already at an impasse. My statement didn’t completely hinge on your obvious lack of familiarity with NYC. You ignored the whole argument and turned around and called me oblivious. My statement had no malice, yours clearly did. Welcome to the block-list since you want to be a jackass.

So you learn for the future: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ad_hominem

Ad hominem is a Latin term for arguments that attack the person making a claim rather than the claim itself.

I didn’t solely attack you. I pointed out your obvious lack of knowledge and then pointed out the actual underlying issues that prove your original statement incorrect. Your response was simply “Ignorant American!”. Which was both factually wrong and a proper ad hominem. You addressed nothing further than your supposed attack on me. That’s what makes the fallacy.

The simple fact of the matter is that having to resort to paying commercial parties for housing means the government missed the mark on allocating the funds to provide structural housing at much lower cost.

There is “structural” housing, and even a significant amount of it in the NYC area. It’s all full up. It costs time and money to build more. And they don’t have time because the people are there now. You can’t just magic land, magic materials, magic builders, magic all the resources needed to build something in 1 day. And nobody is able to build at any speed to keep up with the breakneck amounts of crossings coming over the border looking for housing in NYC.

So you can call it a waste, but the alternative is that the housing people need now will be available in many months. So everyone goes without in the meantime. And those numbers will never converge with the policies in place right now.

Where did I say left or right? I’m actually deeply aware that left and right are poor nomenclatures and SPECIFICALLY chose not to use it. Mostly because left and right are completely different in the US vs the EU. However, Red and Blue in the USA specifically reference a particular political party. Of which NYC is deep and dark blue, where-as upstate NY (typically a reference to anything that isn’t NYC and it’s surrounding metro area) is oftentimes Red.

You claimed “small government”. That’s not what NYC is, not even close. It’s the Republican party that runs on “Small Government” (incorrectly). But that’s a moot point as NYC is Democrat.

But at least thanks for proving that you’re talking about a topic you have no idea about. All you can do is run to ad hominem rather than actually discuss the problem.

Side note: I’m a dual citizen and hold both US and EU passports. Tell me that I’m a “true american” again, most of the people I interact with in the USA certainly don’t hold the same point of view.
