One of the biggest blunders (when well-intentioned) and betrayals (when not) in Democratic rhetoric over the years is their impenetrable insistence that what voters respond to is somebody who begins by finding common ground with their opponent, no matter who that opponent is or what that ground is.
Democrats need to begin with the truth: "My opponents' intent is destruction of the public good and theft and murder of the people who live here, which poisons even the few facts they get right; therefore, there's no point in finding common ground; we should seek only to oppose and defeat them."
Anyone who says that this is losing message needs to contend with the fact that it has been a winning message for at least 3 decades for Republicans. It is a politically unpopular thing for Democrats to say—among Republicans, because they know it wins. It's what everyone else is thirsty for.
One proof: Any time any Democrat comes near to taking this tack, the papers are flooded with opinion pieces from Republican operatives advising Democrats that this course will be politically disastrous to them. It's like a coach warning the opposing team that touchdowns are terrible strategy.
Reward politicians for fighting and solidarity, punish them for seeking bipartisan solutions and abandoning marginalized people or any other appeasement strategy. Replace anyone who doesn't get on board. Repeat until we have driven every Republican and every other fascist from public life forever.

Love or hate Pragmata's hacking, it’s more than just a minigame
I loaded up a recent Pragmata demo in blissful ignorance – or, at the very least, regular ignorance – of the depth of feeling surrounding its central hacking system. The need to shut down robotic baddies’ defences before giving them the ol’ semi-auto handshake is, it seems, widely enough perceived as a potential dealbreaker that Capcom have recreated ...

Da hat er wohl recht: „Milliardäre darf man nicht höher besteuern“. Denn jeder Cent mehr an Steuern wäre für diese die pure Folter. Im „Ernst“: Hast du bzw. ihr mal darüber nachgedacht, was das für die dann verarmte Familie Schwarz bedeuten würde? Wohl kaum. Aber ich hab das gemacht und festgestellt, dass das nicht nur für die betroffenen Familien, sondern auch für uns eine Katastrophe sein könnte: Das würde bedeuten, dass die dann prompt verarmte Familie Schwarz Bürgergeld beantragen müsste. Aber wie wir alle wissen, sind die auszufüllenden Anträge in einem Deutsch verfasst, dass selbst Akademiker diese kaum verstehen können. Aber kein Problem: Ich bin da gerne behilflich, denn das habe ich schon häufig gemacht. Schlimmer ist aber, dass Herr und Frau Schwarz sich nun tagtäglich vor die Glotze legen und Privatfernsehen gucken müssen, sich dabei mit Bier besaufen und ihre Kinder auf den Strich bzw. zum Dealen auf die Straße schicken müssen. Ach ja: Und wenn sie dann zu einem ernsten Gespräch in die Schule gerufen werden, weil ihre Kinder, wenn überhaupt, nur selten in der Schule sind, dann müssen sie vorher 20 Kilometer zu einer Scheune laufen, um ihren Porsche dort rauszuholen, um damit zur Schule zu fahren, die fußläufig 5 Minuten von ihrem Haus entfernt ist. Sollten Sie bis zu diesem Zeitpunkt Bücher in ihren Regalen und Schränken gehabt haben, sind diese umgehend zu entfernen. Und ganz wichtig: Bücher lesen ist auch danach verboten, aber dazu haben sie nun ja auch keine Zeit mehr (s.o.) … Ganz klar: Das Alles kann man der Familie Schwarz nicht zumuten und deswegen ist auch eine Auswanderung, z.B. auf die Bahamas, unumgänglich. Aber auch das stelle ich mir nicht gerade einfach vor: Auswanderung mit 3250 LIDL-Filialen.? Das weiß doch jeder, das die doch gar nicht in 3 kleine Köfferchen passen. Und jeder der bereits aus- oder umgezogen ist, weiß, dass ein solcher Umzug nicht gerade billig ist und verdammt viel Arbeit macht: Alles, d.h.: Gebäude, Parkplätze, Laternen, Einkaufswagen, Regale, Waren,..., einpacken, Nachsendeantrag bei der Post stellen, LKW mieten, Helfer besorgen und für den Tag des Umzugs genügend Essen und Trinken für die Helfer:innen bereitstellen. Hut ab, denn da hat sich die Familie Schwarz wirklich viel vorgenommen. Aber danach warten ja noch ganz andere Probleme auf diese Familien. Stellt euch vor, die kommen nun auf den Bahamas an und müssen feststellen, dass sie als Wirtschaftsflüchtlinge nicht einreisen dürfen und/oder die Einheimischen keine LIDL-Filialen (mehr) haben wollen. Was dann? Zurück in ihre alte Heimat oder in die Wüste? - Wüste. Wüste? Wüste. Hey, keine schlechte Idee, denn da ist ganz viel Platz nicht nur für die Familie Schwarz, sondern auch für alle anderen, wie z.B. die Albrecht-Brüder, Rewe, Edeka, KiK,.... Nur Mut, ihr werdet, was die Plätze betrifft, euch bestimmt einig werden.

I get a very strong feeling that folks like Howard Lutnick (former head of Cantor Fitzgerald, now Secretary of Commerce), Scott Bessent (former hedge fund manager, now Secretary of the Treasury), and the bank CEOs adapted their strategy. “How can we make a boatload of money with Trump?” transformed into “Let’s pitch selling Fannie and Freddie to Trump!”

Venus des quartiers ouvriers de #Belfast, les rappeurs de #Kneecap – Mo Chara, Móglaí Bap et DJ Próvaí – mêlent anglais et gaélique pour revendiquer une culture étouffée par la domination britannique. Leur hip-hop irrévérencieux, nourri d’humour noir, de rébellion et d’anticolonialisme, les a propulsés des pubs irlandais jusqu’aux scènes de Coachella et de Sundance. Mais leur franc-parler dérange. À Los Angeles, en avril 2024, ils affichent « Fuck Israel, Free Palestine ». Depuis, c’est l’avalanche : inculpation au Royaume-Uni, concerts annulés en Allemagne, censure de la BBC à Glastonbury. En France, la polémique rebondit : Caroline Yadan réclame l’interdiction de leur passage à #RockenSeine, soutenue par Bruno #Retailleau, qui place le groupe sous haute surveillance. Comme avec Médine, la mécanique se répète : subventions coupées, festivals menacés, organisateurs intimidés. On ne censure plus frontalement : on asphyxie financièrement. De Belfast à Paris, Kneecap incarne cette contradiction criante : une démocratie qui se proclame garante de la liberté d’expression, mais sanctionne dès qu’un artiste ose rappeler que cette liberté devrait aussi valoir pour la Palestine. ⚠️ Le Média est diffusé sur le canal 165 de la Freebox et sur le bouquet gratuit de Molotov TV.

Black Ops 7 brings back wallrunning, and introduces an unusual endgame mode to the campaign
We’ve been expecting today’s reveal, of course, ever since Activision confirmed back in July that Black Ops 7 would be part of Opening Night Live’s line-up this year.

🌪️ The deep fear of abandonment often hides beneath harsh behaviors like brutality and devaluation. People with NPD might lash out or put others down as a defense mechanism to protect themselves from feeling vulnerable or rejected.
Recognizing this can foster empathy and open paths to healing—both for those affected by narcissistic abuse and for those struggling with NPD. It's a complex dance of pain and protection. 💔➡️💡 #NarcissisticAbuse #NPD #MentalHealthAwareness

Both approaches can get your site live, but they come with different costs—some obvious, some hidden. Let's unpack what "cheap" means for DIY and professional web design and which option saves you more overall.
When launching a website, you face a choice: do it yourself or hire a pro? Cost often drives the decision, with many people searching for a cheap website designer or exploring cheap web design tools that promise an easy, budget-friendly start.
Both approaches can get your site live, but they come with different costs—some obvious, some hidden. Let's unpack what "cheap" means for DIY and professional web design and which option saves you more overall.
The DIY Path
DIY web design seems like the cheapest way to start. Platforms like Shopify, Squarespace, or WordPress offer affordable plans with drag-and-drop templates. For a few dollars a month, you can create a site without technical know-how.
If you're comfortable with tech and have a sense of design, DIY can be a cheap web design option. You skip the cost of hiring someone and can tweak your site whenever you want. Many startups and creators choose this to keep expenses low.
But there's more to it. Building a site takes time—picking layouts, colors, and navigation, and making sure it works across devices. If you're figuring it out as you go, those hours pile up fast, and time isn't free.
Costs can also creep up. Basic plans are cheap, but extras like e-commerce, custom domains, or analytics often require pricier plans. A $15 plan can jump to $45 when you add the features your site needs to compete.
Templates can also box you in. If you want a design or feature that's not standard, you might be stuck without coding skills. DIY is only cheap if your needs are basic and you have time to burn.
The Professional Path
Hiring a cheap website designer or agency costs more upfront. Even budget designers charge a few hundred bucks, and agencies often start in the thousands.
What you're buying is skill and efficiency. A professional can build a site that looks great and works smoothly across devices, handling things like SEO, fast loading, and accessibility. What takes you days or weeks, they can do in hours.
DIY sites can backfire. A site that looks okay on your laptop might fail on mobile or load too slowly, losing you visitors. A professional avoids these pitfalls, saving you money by keeping your audience engaged.
Not every designer is a bargain, though. A cheap website designer might use cookie-cutter templates or skimp on support after launch. A pricier designer or agency often delivers better quality and ongoing help, which can justify the cost.
Paying more doesn't mean wasting money. For many, a professional is the cheapest option when you consider time and missed opportunities.
Defining "Cheap"
The cheapest route isn't just about the initial cost—it's about the long game.
For simple sites, like blogs or basic portfolios, DIY is tough to top. Low fees and ready-made designs keep your wallet happy.
But if your website drives your business, a DIY site's issues could cost you customers. A cheap website designer who builds a reliable, professional site might save you more, even if the initial bill is higher.
Think about the future too. DIY sites work until your needs evolve. Moving to a custom site later can be expensive. A professional can create a flexible site that grows with you, saving you from costly rebuilds.
After Going Live
A website needs attention after launch. Updates, security, and backups are ongoing. DIY platforms often bundle some maintenance into their fees, but advanced features or fixes cost extra.
Professionals usually charge separately for maintenance—some offer plans, others bill by the hour. Skipping this saves money short-term but risks bigger issues like hacks or crashes. Both options have ongoing costs to factor in.
This is a hidden piece of cheap web design that's easy to miss. Launching is just step one.
The Final Take
What's the cheapest way to get online? It depends on your situation.
If you're strapped for cash and need a basic site, DIY is the cheapest in dollars. You'll pay with your time instead.
If your site needs to perform or you can't afford a bad first impression, a cheap website designer might be the smarter choice. It costs more upfront but saves time, errors, and potential losses.
Cheap isn't just about the price tag. Sometimes, the cheapest path is the one that gets it right the first time, even if it means spending a bit more.
