I'm all for getting rid of the two party system.

I live barely outside of DC we had a curfew. Its amazing to see grown men and woman of this country have a tempure tantrum just because their guy didnt win. So much so they stormed the capitol building with weapons, killed someone, injured many many police, and put thousands of lives in danger. I have a close friend who's father works in the capitol and he wasnt answering his phone, she was scared half to death. Thankfully he's ok. And hopefully the united states invested enough in privacy infringing technologies to arrest these fuckers.

I feel that it will only get crazier. The right is realizing that the police and national guard will follow orders regardless if you have a thin blue line flag or not, haha. Lot of, "But we supported you for 8 months" and "What about your oath!?" screams.
Eight months of protests and riots and destruction of private property and businesses from one side of the political scale and not deaths at the hands of law enforcement. Today a female Air Force Veteran was shot and killed by Capitol Police. Will be interesting to see how things go leading up to the inauguration, especially now that there is a death involved. I'd imagine that if Seattle police had shot and killed a CHAZ/CHOP occupant that ti would have fueled a violent response as a reaction, so, we'll see I guess.
I'm just glad I'm far the fuck away from cities. Today I saw some crazy shit in DC, and then later in Washington state when they stormed the Governor's mansion there.
Had to turn the streams off so I could focus on some work I'm trying to get done but still find myself refreshing some sites for some breaking news.

Multi-party systems ain't better either. There's just even more quarrelling. And backstabbing, since various parties have to work together, but who is working together will change. My country works like that. In the end, there are only two opposing viewpoints, too, but they are spread around a dozen or so parties and half of them will end up participating in the quarrelling. At the end, nothing useful is accomplished, but things get worse every year.
Best approach would be to just split the country apart into components instead of having everyone constantly argue with each other. If you can break it down to two viewpoints, just split the country in two, then everyone can do what they think is best.

This shit is probably going to kill the modern republican party.
Not a bad thing in my opinion. Honestly, anything that pushes people away from the two-party system is a good thing in my book.

Should be interesting to see how things continue after dark.
Some live streams:

If there are other live streams, feel free to share. Regardless of how you feel about this group, we never saw Antifa/BLM take it to this level.

Pretty clearly a justified shooting, but let's see what the community burns in protest tonight. Though they may need to, to stay warm. It's winter, after all.

There is a hardware tool that can secure private information on a computer system... a hammer.
Somebody was right -- either Stallman or Kaczinksy. Take your pick.

Weren't these very (very) cheap/affordable hardware firewalls?
What's something you'd suggest as an alternative? pfSense? Cisco?

Fuck public schools. If you have kids, pull them out immediately - almost any alternative is better at this point.

100% free speech. Schools are meant to be schools, they should never regulate speech.

With a splintered broom handle, yes, I agree.

Fuck Comcast.
Rambler wrote
Yeah, I guess that'd be fine simply because the traffic doesn't quite warrant different geographical news forums by default.

it's not a two party system, the democrats and republicans are the same party in practice.
