No, it’s not - Dems are certainly better, but only because they’re not so totalitarian. They still serve us up to their corporate masters, however.

TLDR Hispanic men. They’re strongly Democratic now, so they haven’t learned a damned thing.
EDIT: as the thread below has demonstrated, you all jump to conclusions about my meaning too easily. I’m saying Democrats - while definitely better on the totalitarian aspect, so this is not a “both sides” take - still serve us up to their corporate masters, as Hakeem Jeffries has recently demonstrated with his stated lack of support for universal healthcare.

I think their implication was that the right thinks she’s too extreme to actually win, so they’d prefer she be the candidate. This is, of course, a product of their absurdly skewed views of what “extreme” is. She’s no tankie, for example.

The device is a long way from restoring normal vision. The images it produces are black and white and the field of vision is extremely narrow. Hodak described the experience to the Financial Times as “kind of like looking through a straw in the center of their vision,” though he added that they see a pathway to color vision and higher acuity.
Unless they can backport the future improvements somehow, I’d wait as long as possible before jumping on it with those limitations.

Being harassed is still better than being forced to kill or be killed.

Hell, I’d tell my kids to fake being trans to avoid fighting Trump’s bullshit distraction-from-the-Epstein-files wars.

Was it ever proven she was the source? If so, that’s some serious double-standard shit right there.

Trump just wants the USA to be the only one who gets away with that crap. Taylor Farms — the company behind the killer diarrhea lettuce outbreak — apparently is quite the user of cheap prison labor.

No worries. I’m sure they’ll be fleecing as many as they can in a shared access scheme.

The answer — as it is for most things — is money.

Paper’s easy. Find someone who knows how to replace the image drum so you don’t get ghost reprinting all the way down the page.
Amusing how you’ve already judged both me and my intent while demanding I explain it. Maybe don’t jump to conclusions so readily next time, eh?
