  • "borrow"

  • I'm always on board with saying Fuck Schumer. Just lead with that. And Fuck Pelosi and Jeffries. But you still rant like a crazy person. Keep up the good fight, but like... don't expect to get a lot of converts with your approach.

  • Democrats aren’t good. Republicans are far worse.

    100% this, absolutely.

    I, by no means, love the DNC. Fuck most of them. But the number of tankies and leftys that have lost the plot screaming "harm reduction doesn't work!!!" makes my fucking blood boil. If your decision in the face of fascism is to help bring it about by virtue signalling instead of accomplishing anything, you've sided with the fascist, full stop. No amount of self delusion will change the actual factual outcome. Your Kantian self-righteousness isn't going to provide any comfort to the family that's being thrown in cages.

  • I think you're giving wayyyy to much credit to your neuroticism that you can't possibly expect out of the average person and voter. That's neverminding that it looks like it was written by a blue Alex Jones. If your point is so convoluted that it's hard to explain, then perhaps you don't understand it well enough to explain.

    More importantly, it doesn't matter if your minutia of info is correct on technicality, because that's not how people perceive the DNC and the relationships between the party heads.... so yea. Ending your rant with "its all billionaires!!!!!" may be right... but it has the same energy as "chemtrails!!!". You might be right, but also, you look crazy, and that's the only thing most people are going to take away listening to you.

  • I'm using the fact that the figureheads of the democrat party, the Senate Minority Leader Schumer actively supported Mills over Platner. Because they still haven't learned their lesson. That they even tried to raise up a different candidate shows the problem with the DNC. That other party leaders just let that happen, or didn't shut Schumer down is the problem. One the most powerful members of the DNC handpicked a corpo candidate and then actively campaigned for their pick and AGAINST the pick of the people.

  • All you need to know about the DNC and the "vote blue no matter who" is that after the DNC pick lost (horribly) to Platner, their pick did not bow out gracefully and endorse him. They did not try to tie their campaign to his, to unite and try to defeat the GOP incumbent . The DNC "choice" didn't give a fuck about supporting the people's choice.

    That's the DNC, that's the kind of people they lift up. And it's about fucking time they lost to a progressive instead of continually losing to the GOP every goddamn time.

  • you mean to tell me, that the American Israel Public Affairs Committee is promoting American candidates that will promote the Israeli war machine?.........

  • Lol, "replaced by"?

  • at least you're being honest with your oppo bullshit instead of the "oh geez, fellow leftists, I don't know......" facade.

  • If you think it's all behind him, and want to support him over the corpo picks..... why even bring it up? It's old news at this point. The people who care, already know. The only thing you're doing now is running oppo by keeping it fresh, unasked; that's the opposite of support. At least be honest with your bullshit, rather than trying to play the "concerned voter" schtick.

  • Hannity thinks he (and Trump) knows more about how the Bible should be read and interpreted than the Pope?.......

    Do these people even hear themselves?

  • The number of "rednecks", "southerners", "hillbillies" etc that don't know about the Battle of Blair Mountain and what it was over..... just sad. For a culture that loves to talk about their "heritage" they sure seem to be oblivious to a lot of it.

    Putting "thin blue line" stickers on their trucks and insulting unions and union workers....

  • I think you're a making a lot of cope to defend casual misogyny instead of just calling it out.

    "nono, you don't understand, Cranston did tv first, totally different". They're both actors, and actors frequently alternate between movies and shows all the time. For various different reasons.

    OP wasn't attacking her views on AI, he was attacking her, as an actor. Using language that wouldn't be used on similarly aged male actors (don't like my examples, there's hundreds others to use... DeCaprio? McKellen, Nicholson?). Language, mind you, that dogwhistles and normalizes popular misogynistic takes on women with long careers (especially if they started young).

    If that seems acceptable to you but you earnestly believe Hollywood misogyny is a problem, you might want to do some self-reflecting on those two statements. Think about what it means to normalize attitudes and the words used to describe actors and how/when they're applied.

  • washed up? What are you talking about? She's been the lead on two different, highly rated, shows for nearly a decade now. And that's discounting her decades prior of accolades.

    But here's the real problem, you jump to call her "washed up", she's only 49. Is Brian Cranston washed up? Was Pachino? Calling a female actor "washed up" because she's older with a long career just exudes and perpetuates the culture pushing out women as they age.

    Just because YOU stopped paying attention to her doesn't make her washed up. Sorry she's not the bangable 20something year old "Legally Blonde" anymore. Say what you want about her hot take on AI, that's fair, but don't normalize your misogyny as part of it.

  • "Most transparent administration"

  • We need Ja Rule's opinion on this. Has anyone asked him?
