Lmao here's the first USPol post that got the neoliberal -> n-word filter. So it read "Deray McKesson is a pure n-word shock troop and Teach for America stooge."

DAD LOST MY IPOD posted:Assange isn't alt-right, (((establishment))) aside. The guy who ghostwrote his autobiography has a great essay in the LRB about working with him. He's a raging, pathological narcissist with a clinical lack of empathy, but insofar as he has any coherent ideology at all it's that all large organizations, especially governments, are persecuting him. He seems to have a mysterious soft spot for Putin. The paycheck may help some, I guess.

Assange (who is far left) adopting far right rhetoric and broing up with Putin, a far right leader, is basically living proof of horseshoe theory.

I think the VP debate could be boring, but I hope Kaine's strategy is just hitting Trump over and over and over again on misogyny and bigotry and general ugliness. Make Pence defend it or try to change the subject. Draw a contrast between Pence's evangelical holier-than-thou attitude and...Trump.

Assange is probably the most prominent example of a guy who acts like all political parties are the same because he is too cool to believe in things.

patonthebach posted:Can someone explain what this October Surprise thing is to someone that isnt American? The idea of a big, unexpected event that occurs late in the election cycle that could potentially swing the election. Various events from past campaigns are sometimes pointed out as "october surprises," particularly Iran not releasing the hostages in 1980 which is a major reason why Carter lost, but it doesn't really fit the definition of being something totally unforseen. In reality, there hasn't really been any "October surprise" big enough to swing an election.

ComradeCosmobot posted:The laughs keep coming (look at the bottom of the page) One of Radio Free GOP's sponsors is a forum called Ricochet, which was described as "the best center-right forum on the internet, no trolls guaranteed", but also that you're supposed to pay a monthly subscription to post there. I found the idea fascinating. For one, I think I would be okay with paying a monthly sub to SA if it meant keeping the lights on for the amount of entertainment I get from this place, but for another, what is a "center-right forum with no trolls" even going to look like? Is that where Amergin copy-pastes our counter-arguments to?
