OtherworldlyInvader posted:Honestly, I doubt Obama would have really done anything different if he had won in 08. When you get down to it he would have gotten us stuck in the war with Iran, same as president McCain. Thankfully that quagmire has forced the Democratic party to the left, and this year we've got a true progressive running in Hillary Clinton. Accelerationism worked! Yeah, it's not like Obama could have had a hope of re-election in 2012 with Iran's nuclear threats and Kim Jong Un still in power in Korea. The Republicans would have beat him to death with that.

VirtualStranger posted:"Regressive left" is just the new iteration of "Social Justice Warrior" or "PC Police" that 14-year-old 4channers and Redditors use whenever a leftist hurts their fragile suburban white boy feelings. in all seriousness though, the whole tumblr scene can actually be very dangerous. there's a difference between, say, celebrating a trans woman and finding a community where things like "headmates" and crippling anxiety about being called the right made-up pronoun are not only accepted, but openly encouraged there's people in those communities that need legitimate psychological help and its incredibly toxic and in some cases, like with eating disorders, a health issue i suppose that's more of a critique of internet culture than tumblr itself, fwiw

Shimrra Jamaane posted:Is calm primary talk permitted in the thread tonight? "calm primary chat", especially from you, is always "look at how great hillary is doing" and doesn't really add to the conversation. literally all of the slapfights start itt because of a bunch of "hey look at good hillary is doing that'll show those idiot bernouts " for half a page or so until some bernie supporter posts a thing and everything goes downhill almost immediately from there edit: you aren't the only one who does this, btw. just stick to YCS it isnt hard

The NYTimes' Mark Landler had a great interview yesterday on Fresh Air about Hillary's tenure as Secretary of State that was really interesting. No one (including Obama) comes out looking universally bad or good either, and it's a great review of all the ins and outs of Obama's and Hillary's post-2008 work.

Nostalgia4Infinity posted:That over permissiveness isn't just restricted to Internet communities. that's true but tumblr is the real instance of it being easily accessible to millions of people all on a single site. i'm not arguing that tumblr itself is bad, but there's a kernel of truth in the whole SJW thing. its mostly just slapfighting between angsty teens and racists but an easily-accessible place that encourages people to avoid therapy for things like undiagnosed schizophrenia and binge eating disorder cloaked as "headmates", "otherkin", or "fat acceptance" isn't safe or healthy and causes people to hide illnesses that are underreported as it is. i'm currently taking a course on psychopathology and the effect is noticeable enough that psychologists are starting to study online communities like tumblr edit: 99.9% of the tumblr criticism is a bunch of angsty 20-something white guys who can't get laid whining about it though

Trump will continue to rise in the ranks accumulating support without ceasing and more and more people will come to believe he is the one true candidate and even Hillary will realize the errors of her ways and endorse Trump.
