  • I think it’s more of a, I’ve heard these names, those are your guys right?

    Like he always says things like “Your boy, Gavin Newsom, blah blah blah”. When me and my wife have never cared for or shown any support for the guy. A lot of poking at Democrats he dislikes like that.

    I think he also talked kindly of Mamdani, then essentially took it back when he realized was actually going to get elected. I usually get this sort of “this guy isn’t a threat to my politics so I’m okay with it, but if that changes then I won’t like them.”

    I have however experienced exactly what you are talking about from a conservative friend who was all for Marco Rubio during presidential primaries, absolutely hated AOC for some reason, but would gladly vote for Bernie Sanders over Trump. I really don’t get his reasoning.

    To add the little bit I know to the comments above.

    Car batteries are not the same as AGM (often sold as scooter or marine batteries) or newer LiFePO4 batteries.

    While I think AGM and car batteries both are lead acid, car batteries are designed to have one big discharge to start an engine and then recharge from an alternator. The other batteries are designed for a slower discharge over time.

    The batteries commonly used in battery backups were usually AGM type, and now the LiFePO4 (usually used for solar) are starting to be used for backups and are much safer (I think they don’t off gas as much?). The original post was a picture of a solar battery, but an SLA (sealed lead acid, of which some are agm) one from harbor freight.
