No, but I am Middle Eastern and Canadian and am impacted by US policy whether I like it or not.

It's incredibly depressing to know that my vote in federal elections is useless just because of where I live.

Nobody is owed the peoples' vote. You can stick your head in the sand and pretend that everything is fine but don't be surprised if it doesn't pan out come election time in the US given past and current polling. Also, the whole Russian troll/useful idiot accusation that gets leveled at everyone who feels differently about anything from Biden's chances at winning to his responsibility for what's happening in Gaza is very condescending and shows a complete lack of flexibility in thought other towing the official party line. I wonder what you would say if Biden willingly chose to resign tomorrow.

93 for 1/0.01075

1024 historians assuming they all pick different combinations at random. Probability of randomly guessing at least 9 of 10 goes up to 1.075% or 93 historians (on average to get one person with 9/10 predictions right) or like the other commenter mentioned 1024-11= 1013 to guarantee a 9/10 but that's a little overkill.

Every time you smear anyone who is completely opposed to an ethnostate committing genocide as antisemitic you are equating being Jewish to supporting the actions of the state of the Israel which is both antisemitic in itself and actively harmful to Jewish people globally.

Just made the switch to Nobara Linux on my desktop and ill probably go with Mint on my ancient laptop tomorrow. My only hang up was games but it seems like compatibility is a lot better nowadays so hopefully I can fully switch over. Same for windows only programs and Wine.

Another workaround is hiding the voting arrows in settings
