I think that's a waste of time. Because chances are likely, there's unedited versions backed up and archived.

I've stopped fighting for my shadow-banned account on Reddit. It's a month old now, they've been ignoring it. And for weeks I've only checked reddit but never bothered logging in and never bother trying to fight anymore. I've been on Reddit as far back as, I want to say, 2012? And I've been banned over 30+ times under many alts, getting into fights with some of the dumbest fuckers on Reddit possible. But there also were times where I had tried partaking in positive manners, but the Reddit ecosystem just wasn't having it with people like that.

I've been seeing so many honest people make innocent posts and just getting fucked with. And those people are finding themselves banned as well, not just me. So it's just simply not worth it anymore trying with a system like that, that's been building itself into it's own authoritarian atmosphere.

Best bet is police reports. Stack enough of them, someone has to do something. if this is apartment related.

Just like idiotic spam callers, these people too, should be treated as punching bags.

Give them no mercy. Tell them they are not welcomed.

Blue states will pass them.

Red states won't.

The United States will no longer be a member of NATO or the United Nations or both. The US is being labeled as an adversary by Germany, so in 10 years, the United States may very well lose half of it's allies because of these 4 years we're enduring.

Russia could still lose it's war with Ukraine and may have lost because of the combined efforts of the EU since the US 10 years ago (accounting the time scale) has abandoned Ukraine. Russia and the United States could very well be allies by this point which would make the world arm themselves since we're seeing countries retaliate in trade wars.

Inflation in 10 years will be the new norm because no politician, Democrat or Republican, can't ever get their marbles of a grasp on holding corporations accountable.

Speaking of Corporations, in 10 years, they would've sucked dry and owned well over every important asset, service and many acquisitions along the way. We would have to make the term 'Megacorp' to identify these corporations by.

This is the list, for those who don't want to read it. I don't see Adguard Adblocker on there, surprisingly or SponsorBlock. Besides UBlock Origin, which is a staple extension of mine for all browsers and we've long knew about Google's approach to that. I haven't seen a lot of what I use/used on here. I don't even know most of these.

There's almost nothing that can be done in a case of a voter who makes bad decisions. They'd have to learn to live with the consequences caused by their poor decision making. You can show them, you can educate them and you can rationalize with them all day. But, they just have to face the music. Which is what I believe anyone who voted for Trump is going to have to go through. They think voting for him will make their lives better when he's most likely going to make them struggle day after day if not put them out of whatever comfort zone that they once had.

They don't seem to register in their minds that voting for a bad leader is going to affect everyone involved, not just pick and choose what groups of people to affect.

The unfortunate part is someone had mentioned that it is a patience thing and it is all about time. It could be years for them to finally see whatever light there is to see that shine on the errors of their poor decision making. Quite frankly, I do not have all of the time in the world and I don't exactly know how much time I truly do have left, so I just brand them as hopeless and move on.

It depends and I judge based on what a person has done.

Can a murderer change? Well, they've taken a life or maybe numerous lives so I place them on the irreversible pile. Those who can't change because let's say, they might've had multiple chances to change prior to murdering and they blew them all.

Can an addict change? Possibly, if they haven't gone far deep into the addiction. There will always be some kind of change opportunity for them and they haven't done irreparable damage yet.

You have to evaluate people by levels and where their stances are in life.

In my case, my right eyebrow twitches. But it isn't because of stress or being mad, it is because of my consumption of caffeine in one day or throughout the week which is just one cause that can happen for some twitches.

I know the truth stings, child.

Their opening lines really hit it home.
