Not on the US corporate curated internet. It hurts the feelings of advertisers.

You are confusing a lot of pol science terms, as well as using some which aren’t part of pol science at all.

All modern democracies are representative democracies, as in voters votes for representatives to represent them. Switzerland has elements of direct democracy, but on a foundation of representative democracy as well. Constitutional, presidential and liberal democracy are not an actual meaningful terms in political science.

Technically the US is a representative democracy, but I am pretty sure OPs is asking about the practice of the thing. And the practice is very different from the written word about how it was supposed to be, especially this recent presidential term.

Very much depending on the topic. For specialised niche subjects, which are usually the ones students choose for final papers, literature can be very scarce, and 1994 would be fairly recent. For my specialised field the main study (which is still being cited frequently) is from 1870.

Im still not convinced that crypto is worth it. I

That’s because it isn’t. In fact it is a completely destructive concept, which utilises a shitload of energy which could have been better applied elsewhere, and only facilitates scams and other crimes.

This is America.

This is the internet.

Grateful Dead is definitely huge in Europe as well.

That is taking it a bit too far. Dolly Parton and Johnny Cash are definitely known, especially because they kinda crossed over into over genres than straight country, but 99% of other country artists aren’t.

I switched to it a couple of years ago, with the expectation that I had to resort to google in more complex search instances. But very soon I found out that ddg did the job, and my “alternative” google searches did not turn up anything better, quite the contrary in fact, and I haven’t been back since.

Nah, fuck them. They voted for Trump even after all these years of him being a bigoted asshole. Anybody who did that after the “grab them by the pussy” tape revelation knew. They knew perfectly well what they were in for, they did just not expect to be on the receiving end of that bigotry themselves.

That is definitely what will happen if they surrender though.

Who is saying anything about hypocrisy? This is about the guy feeling the consequences for his shitty policies.

I think you confused football with Amerixan football. It is referring to what you would call soccer.

There isnt any appeal. It is just them trying to carve into that tiktok market, but the people watching tiktok are already just watching tiktok, so it is basically just there to annoy the rest of us.

That is only very selectively true though, considering that the party responsible for starting those wars is the one playing pacifist now. And if there is one thing we know about GOP it is that they are definitely not pacifist

It is just a very poor excuse by disingenous liars.

Indeed. “Grab them by the pussy” and his mocking of a disabled person all made it very clear. Anyone still on board with him after that was a certified asshole.

All of his supporters in 2016 were also bad people. They saw the “grab them by the pussy” tape, they saw him make fun of a disabled person, and thought he was still a worthy candidate for their vote.

Don’t let any company which chose to get involved in this blatant scam get exonerated just because they dumped it later. They still tried to pull the scam in the first place, and they only dropped it because they didn’t make any money on it, not because it was a scam.

Always remember this.

Firefox + ublock still works perfectly fine for me.

The main figures mentioned are from 2000-2019. So definitely no COVID involved.

Not really true. UK definitely has a history of under-insulation compared to other European countries with similar climates (like Denmark for example).
