North Koreans don’t think this. Everybody knows its bullshit. The point is not for people to believe in the bullshit, the point is normalizing the government to get away with obvious bullshit. And this pattern is not exclusive to North Korea at all.

The “limping on” has been the past 40 years already. Ever since Neoliberalism became the dominant economic ideology and fully embraced by both mayor parties.
Capitalism declines into Fascism. The current administration is not the root cause of the US problems. It is a symptom that is accelerating the decline into Fascism. But the ground work was laid many years ago and defended ever since. We see a similar trend in many other countries that adopted the US Neoliberalism to various extends.
I have read briefly into the Duty to Warn Letter. These are specific arguments with a specific call to investigation, and they actually cover what would be considered statistical anomaly.
These are very different from the “Election Truth” people. And i wouldn’t be surprised if the “Election Truth” is using this hot issue topic to scam donations out of people.
Yeah, people should be appreciative of not being gutted. They can still be fucked, but they should just happily spread the legs. Never expect more than not being fucked at least.
What is this website? I couldn’t find any link to their board directly, but only through a search engine. Their board is just named with three first names and there is broad statements made about them all being passionate, data analysts, bla bla.
There is no specific “CV” for them. E.g. something like “X studied computer science and worked as a data analyst for ten years”.
And the plots where they claim “suspicious” patterns looks like any aggregate. As the total number of votes go up, each machine is more likely to get towards the overall turnout, so your distribution peaks gets higher and your scatter plot scatters less. You see the same pattern with the Election day machines. Just that they only go up until 125 votes, rather than 250 or more total votes. So the spread remains stronger. Also the number of machines for early day voting is 964, whereas there was 3,116 machines for election day voting. This is another basic truth of statistics. As N goes up, the shape of your distribution gets more uniform.
So what do we see? We see exactly what is to be expected with a higher number of votes per machine. That the distribution gets narrower. And we see what is to be expected with a higher number of machines. That the distribution between machines gets more evenly.
Ignoring third party votes, this is a classical binomial distribution and you can test all of these effects easily by making your own “draw n out of N” tests.

The only argument is that there is a higher result for Trump with early voting as opposed to election day voting. And that can needs to be analyzed in the context of demographics and other factors. For instance people who can take off work for election day voting have more white collar jobs and are demographically more inclined to vote Democrats. But of course accounting for these factors is not part of this “analysis”.
I am not saying that manipulations are out of the question. But these people are clearly trying to bamboozle you with deliberate misinterpretations of statistics.
It is better to go for specific leads and investigate those, rather than throw blanket conspiracies. The latter only helps Trump in abolishing democratic processes altogether.
TBH they should have taken the dems and been appreciative,

This is exactly the problem with the US oligarchy and how it filters candidates that are allowed to run for elections.
20·8 days agoKarl Marx’s theory of alienation describes the separation and estrangement of people from their work, their wider world, their human nature, and their selves. Alienation is a consequence of the division of labour in a capitalist society, wherein a human being’s life is lived as a mechanistic part of a social class
Because you didnt do your homework and the there is still rotting spaghetti in the codesink.
Isnt there this graveyard off map somewhere in Skyrim, where all the bodies get teleported?
You do know that US intelligence agencies and military have been heavily involved in organizing the global drug trade, including smuggling drugs like Heroin and Cocaine into the US?
It has always been a tool of power. This is why Reagans wife told kids to “just say no to drugs” in a concerned voice, while her Husband organized tonnes and tonnes of Cocaine to be smuggled into the US to finance a fascist terrorist organization overthrowing democratically elected governments and killing tens of thousands of civilians. Oh and he used part of the profits to sell weapons into a war zone against US legislation and explicit decision of congress, so more brown people are being murdered.
Further fun fact, Mexican Cartels ended up with military assault rifles from the German manufacturer Heckler&Koch, circumventing export bans. So it is not just the US that likes to join in on it.
They have the power, if and only if the Police and Army are listening to them based on this being what the laws say.
With Adams in New York we already see an example, how to create a layer of corrupt loyalists that could tell the police to act differently.
America is named after an Italian after all.
The Legislative and Judiciary can only keep the Executive in check, if the people with guns in the Executive are willing to listen to them, rather than the superiors giving them orders.
You have “Legislatives” in dictatorships too. but when they refuse to obey the military any longer, they either get disappeared, get a sham process over something they allegedly did, or at best you get a civil war.
Or how Cersay Lannister said in Game of Thrones: “Power is Power”. When push comes to shove, the question is who do the people with guns listen to. Everything around it is just fluff. Unless large parts of the Military and Police defect and take care of their superior and then hand power back to the normal institutions, or there is a peoples uprising and subsequent civil war, the power will not go back.

I work with a lot of users and a lot of files in my job.
I don’t remember a single case, where someone had an issue because of upper- or lowercase confusions.
The other day a colleague send me the pdf of some documentation standard he uses. In the media section it recommendee using HD Floppy discs with 1.44MB as all computers have a ready drive for it. CDs were described as being written with a special tool and then readable by a special laser drive, but suitable for long term data storage…
Today i had to ask a 15 year old, if he is familiar with CDs, because chance is most notebooks stopped having CD drives by the time he learned to read.
