I propose to give this article the zero amount of attention it deserves, and instead, to spend the comments talking about how to help get people out to vote.

I signed up yesterday with votefwd.org, and I'm planning on spending some time on it, as soon as they verify my signup. I've already turned in my ballot, but there's still time to motivate some other people, and influence the outcome that way.

Edit: I don't think this is the way. Does anyone know how to volunteer for text banking? I think I did, a while back, but I never did it. I looked at https://web.kamalaharris.com/forms/take-action-for-kamala-harris but the prospect of having to go outside and meet people is terrifying.

I already sent it. It's here:

https://ponder.cat/wp/wp-sources.zip

Edit: You don't need to do the import initially, since there's already a sources file with some small modifications. The import is the only complicated part. Use categorize.py to categorize a source, or lookup.py to run a quick command-line test.

I'll send them a link and an example of how to use it tomorrow.

I'm really curious what the response to this is going to be.

*fifth, with SO's default sorting, after several screens full of wrong answers

It's a wonderful answer and I appreciate knowing about it now, because that process definitely wasn't the first idea that came to my mind. If only Google and SO had given that answer to me before I did the whole adventure I pasted into my post and comment.

It's search. I'm copy-pasting the content going down from the top of the page, adding my own commentary.

It won't be my fault.

Yes it will.

Come to !rcv@ponder.cat and make a better solution.

If you are waiting for either mainstream political party to suddenly become champions of the people on their own, and you're refusing to take certain actions even in the face of catastrophic threat until they do, then yes, it will be your fault if the catastrophe comes true.

That outcome may be fine for you, and you may feel virtuous about your participation in that outcome for your reasons. It's somewhat safe for you if you're wealthy and white and born in the US and not active in left-wing politics, and confident that that all of that will keep you safe from a second Trump presidency. Of course there's no way to be sure that it will. But regardless, a lot of people don't have that luxury.

Someone who claims to be Target LP goes into some interesting detail about their loss prevention, and doesn't bring this up, in a context where it seems likely that they would have, if it were accurate.

Perfect.

that anyone can use without logging in

Absolutely not.

And if you could make the back button malfunction and then reload the page, and also open a dialog when I try to navigate away, that would be perfect.
