Wait wait wait, the recent one isn’t on Mars? What the hell???
butwhyishischinabook@lemmy.worldto You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK that if US housing and population projections hold, the Electoral College map will change after the 2030 census.2·26 days agoThat’s true, although there are a good number of purple metro areas in red states. That’s where I moved and it’s maybe not as effective as moving to the middle of nowhere, but it’s a hell of a lot better than casting another blue vote in the deep blue area I was raised in.

butwhyishischinabook@lemmy.worldto Florida - The Sunshine State@lemmy.world•A Florida Home Insurer Was Allowed to Bypass the Courts During Claim Disputes. It Won More Than 90% of the Time.English1·30 days agoOkay but Florida alone has well over 4/5 of lawsuits by insured individuals against their homeowners insurance companies for the entire nation. It’s horrible that innocent people get assumed to be committing fraud but, let’s be honest, most of them are fraud pushed by extremely sketchy contractors lying to the homeowner about what caused their issues. It’s not like Florida magically has 40-50x the rate of homeowners insurance claims. Boo hoo, extremely unsavory fraudsters preying on homeowners can’t just file a lawsuit, settle right before trial, and run away with 75% of the settlement anymore. Oh no.
Edit: also important to know that DOAH hearings have shorter timelines than normal court. This means that your average totally-not-fraud plaintiffs’ attorney mill can’t get away with doing absolutely nothing for 2 years (which they’re notorious for in the Florida legal world) and then settle right before trial after failing to prepare for 2 years. They often lose DOAH hearings because suddenly their breathtaking laziness is losing them cases.

We can flood these places with enough people to tip them, we just need to stop with fatalistic bullshit about how these states are “beyond all hope.” No they’re fucking not. Get out of your comfort zone, do your duty to our democracy, and ffs stop self sorting into deep blue states. Staying where it’s blue is easy but it doesn’t do much good.

Based on your above comments you don’t seem to have a problem with the USSR using military occupation to stop satellite states from leaving their orbit. Surprise surprise, you suddenly oppose it when anyone other than Russia does it. In any event, nobody except Russia considers those referenda results even remotely credible. You’re just another pro-imperial campist.
