You should change your name to Global Elections Stimulator and then stimulate my butthole
馃嚙馃嚪 As this election campaign finally comes to an end, we can say with statistical certainty that Fl谩vio Bolsonaro (PL) will be elected the next president of the Federative Republic of Brazil tomorrow night. Bolsonaro now officially has a 100% chance of victory, compared to Lula's 0%. (globalelectionsimulator.com) will update its final projections within the coming hours. At this point, the only uncertainty our team has is the exact margin, not the outcome. The absolute range for Fl谩vio Bolsonaro is 50.5% to 56.2%, while Lula's is 43.8% to 49.5%. Our final projection update will go live in a moment on the website and here shortly after. A banner will note that the projection has updated, so you will know it is official. 馃寪 Global Election Simulator Research Institute 馃敆 globalelectionsimulator.com

People here underestimate how old I am. I was alive when the first Sex Pistols album came out.

This is because you're learning about it/listening to it in 2026.

You can debate strategy until the sun comes up, but my read is that Josh Turek is just a genuine transphobe. The ad goes much farther than what would be necessary if he were acting only on strategy.

I have no idea why punk is synonymous with cool rebelliousness. Crappy music where half of the original bands are conservatives.

If you lived in a democratic country with a presidential system where the parliamentary elections happened one year after presidential elections, would you vote yes in a referendum which moved parliamentary elections to take place after two years? And what are your reasons

The parliament term is also 4 years in this scenario and it's unicameral

Even apart from her views, I can't stand Hila Klein. She's not funny, doesn't have anything insightful to say, and her mannerism resembles a victim of a botched lobotomy. One of the most unpleasant people to have as a media personality.

For me, it's going a little worse. I didn't think he'd go beyond bombing nuclear facilities in Iran. Otherwise, exactly as far as I imagined.
I thought Trump 2 was gonna be way worse. Every day now I wake up with a euphoric sense of relief

Many people are responding by pointing out how interesting American elections/politics are, but also, you guys understand why Iranians have an additional reason or two to care about American politics, right? Especially now?

Due to my chronic pain, it's extremely hard for me to get on one knee, but close to impossible to back up without help. Imagine if I knelt down to propose to someone, they rejected me, and then I had to ask them to help me get back up

I don't understand why Nick Fuentes gets to treat groypers with contempt. It's not like he's a great intellectual himself. He produces content aimed at them. He shat on the floor, he doesn't get to complain about the flies he attracted.

Mohammad Khatami's victory
What is the oldest political news story you can remember? For me it's Joe Biden being selected as Obama's VP.

My problematic theory is that liberals and leftists on Twitter are more immune to the worst excesses of vulgar postcolonialism than other platforms because they sometimes see how genuinely evil and unhinged these conservarive cultures can get

To me it's exceedingly obvious that JD Vance has much worse political instincts than Trump.
