[Passacaglia]

Stupid (but honest) question - if you don't determine citizenship based on birth, how do you determine it?

Dude, you talk more shit and know so little about me, even after 20+ years here. You listen so little you think you have it all solved. You run around here like Chicken Fucking Little year after year. That one time you can act like your right about something you shit all over everyone just to boost your own ego. Rinse and repeat.

I'm only lashing out at your incredible asshattery.

Wanted to know how the House race is going.

Per NPR at late morning today ...

Here are the House races that haven't been called yet : NPR

Democrats need a net gain of 4 seats to win the majority.

Where things stand in the 2024 electionDemocrats have so far flipped 4 seats and are leading in 1 other of the 10 remaining Republican-held competitive seats.

Republicans have flipped 3 and are leading in 2 of the 10 remaining Democratic-held competitive seats.

If that all holds, Democrats would be +5 and Republicans +5 for a 0 net gain for either party.

Doesn't sound like the Dems will net +4, so all GOP for next 2 years.

That would mean, Republicans would keep the House with a 4-seat majority, which is their current margin.

OK. So why have you been lashing out for the past 4 years?

I feel you're missing the point of the modern GOP. They want to return white men* (and women, to a lesser extent) to the position of strength they held 100-200 years ago, but with all the modern conveniences. And it looks like they'll do it.

As an middle/upper class white man I guess I should be looking forward to it, since my attempts to vote my conscience against my benefits has been so handily rebuffed by those who would be assisted by those benefits.

*mainly white men of means, but a rising tide raises all (white) boats.
