Because "bait and switch" is enforced by the government, but politicians are the government. What are you supposed to do, create your own government with blackjack and hookers and appoint them power over the real one?

"Why isn't the media reporting on this?" says a terminally online person linking to an article on a mainstream news site. "I know, right?" chime in all the people who don't even read the news anymore and just wait for stuff to trickle in through their social networks.

Funny you should say that, I saw a commercial on YouTube just today for some tool called "Focal" or something that claims you can just feed it a script and it'll spit out a whole-ass movie. There are definitely people who are going to champion this tech as an "equalizer", you know, now anyone...

And anyway, is this really helping Trump? I'd argue that making it look like he's doomed would help him more, by discouraging people from going out of their way to vote against him. You know, like exactly what happened in 2016.

I think the bigger story, and the bigger concern, is that Montana does online voting, which is inherently a terrible idea that should never be attempted by anyone ever.

After the results came in, I was thinking it's a shame more people didn't take a clue from how badly the Tories were projected to get owned and that they had plenty of leeway to vote third party for a change. But now I'm thinking the current Labour party would have just formed a coalition with...

If I were Brazil, I'd say "Sorry, buddy, you had your one chance and you blew it." But it would be even funnier if Brazil gives him a second chance, lulling into a false sense of security so he defies the EU, and then they don't.

I'd also question whether anyone connected to his campaign could possibly find a way to turn additional funding into more votes anyway. It's not like he doesn't get all the attention he needs for free from the media; he's just incapable of saying or doing anything on camera that doesn't make him...

What concerns me is that it happened outside of Israel's borders. The risk of getting killed by terrorists or your own government is just one of those things Israel's citizens have been living with on and off for over a generation now, but Lebanon? Last I checked, they weren't interested in...

I've been saying for as long as I could vote that debates would actually be more civilized if they had a guy standing off to the side with a Gong Show gong to hit whenever the candidates start rambling off topic or talking over each other.

The author of that article is also apparently unaware that Silver is no longer running the site he founded... ...so I'd take their capacity to do basic fact-checking with a grain of salt.

Ever notice that it's always "lock up your daughters" and not "lock up the men who are trying to rape them"?

Hey, whatever happens in Georgia or any other state this year, it can't be as big of a clustershow as Florida in 2000. Nothing can.

They really do seem to be the only company on the planet actually doing some real good on purpose. I wonder if the Nobel Obituary Effect is at play. Their game got a reputation for being an edgy game for psychopaths, so they're out to prove that they're decent people by any means necessary.

First off, hate speech isn't a crime in the US. Only in the civilized world. Secondly, it's not what is and isn't a crime that bothers me, it's what is and isn't a punishment. This man should have been stripped of the very means to keep disseminating his hate speech by now, not merely warned...

But good enough to support legal streaming?

You mean to tell me there was a point where anyone from our generation stopped pirating 100% of the media we consume? ...Why?

You know, for as much as we like to talk about freedom of speech as an inalienable right, I think it ought to be one of those "rights" that you can lose if you abuse it too much. Like, criminals can already lose their rights to own guns, and no one who matters, even the most hardcore...

He's black though. That probably will.

I mean, the Trump campaign has been engaging in equally hateful and dangerous rhetoric since his first election campaign and no one so much as tried to sue then.
