  • Ok, I didn’t look at the states that Harris won, because that would’ve taken longer and complicated things.

    Only looked at states that trump won.

    Interesting fact: if you strategically place 12 million more votes, you can win literally every single state and secure all votes.

    Most fun way to win (imo): 1.5 million in Texas for 40 votes and then another 1.5 million in Florida for another 30.

    Most efficient points/voter states:

    Michigan needed 80k for 15 votes

    Georgia needed 120k for 16

    Pennsylvania needed 145k for 19

    And Nevada needed 52k for 6

    For a grand total of 400k you’d get 56 votes that could’ve taken Harris from 226 to 282 and would’ve secured the win.

    Other close calls:

    North Carolina needed 200k for 16 votes

    Arizona needed 140k for 11




  • The original comment to which you replied said “Millions of people stayed home. I really doubt Gaza was the reason for all of them.”

    We’ve agreed that millions of people did stay at home. So I don’t see the problem. Yes, they often stay at home. That’s the problem. When it’s two of more of the same it’s more understandable. But both sides have been pretty clear about what’s at stake. And they still stayed home. That’s it. And you’ve agreed that 1/3 of the people didn’t vote.

    Not sure how the op was untruthful or misleading or based in any way “off of feelings and emotions”.

    Millions of people chose to allow this to happen. And yeah, Gaza wasn’t the reason.





  • They’ve all taken the Torah that Moses dreamt up and made their own version with hookers and blackjack. You can spin it however you want, but it’s true. The fact that it’s not copied word for word doesn’t change the fact that it’s the same foundation.

    The Egyptians and the Mesopotamians/Babylonians influenced the Canaanite religion, then that evolved into Judaism, then that splintered into Judaism and Christianity and then came Mohammed who was like “yep, those guys and those books came from God! And I am the last prophet of God!”

    Then we got a bunch of other prophets like Joseph Smith, Nostradamus, David Koresh, Jim Jones, Ellen White, etc. So… Yeah.

    Also, I guess this is an example of how different people interpret these books. To me, 5:2 seems to speak against word vomit, which is what I was implying you’re doing in this thread and others.

    You remember wrong. It just means “of rome” and it’s that because it was a roman province. There’s a difference between “of rome” which is what “român” means and “the true descendants of Rome” which is what you’re claiming. We’ve never claimed to be more Roman than Italians or anything. That’d be stupid.








  • Uuuh, splitting hairs on my choice of words. The republican party split into two and so did the votes. The fact that I said “stole” wasn’t part of the point. And ofc you’re gonna say it’s impossible to know…

    It’s just a coincidence that in 1908 it was 6.4m vs 7.7m votes (dems and republicans respectively) and in 1912 it was 6.3m vs 3.5m + 4.1m (Dems vs republicans and progressives respectively)

    Yeah, the numbers stayed more or less the same except the republican vote got split. But yeah, that’s just a coincidence, we have no way of knowing!
