gfsincere posted:Funny you say that, because I was Intel in the Marines and worked in a G-2, and the people whose minor fuckups like accidentally transmitting something that was supposed to be classified but improperly marked got nothing but a talking to and maybe sent back to retraining. There was a E-5 that did it a week before his promotion and still got his E-6. No A15 or nothing. plus also, who writes up the boss? hillary's direct superior was obama lmao at a bunch of republicans whining and moaning that the head chief boss doesn't get treated the same as the rank and file employees, usually they're all about that dumb rear end double standard

Welp https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2016/jul/20/donald-trump-sexual-assault-allegations-jill-harth-interview quote:There was the initial leering in that first December meeting in Trump Tower, and the inappropriate questions after her relationship status. It continued the next night over dinner at the Plaza Hotel’s Oak Room, where at a dinner with beauty pageant contestants she alleges he groped her under the table. Apparently he does just grab them in the pussy

RuanGacho posted:The crack in this theory is that Republicans might cause recessions. No. They are more a global thing. Like natural disasters. The ebb and flow of capitalist economics cause them. There will always be recessions and recoveries. Always plan for recessions, like you might plan for a hurricane in the parts of the country prone to them.

So I keep running into another weird thing, USPOL, which is this strange assumption people have that the people who don't vote, are not voting as a deliberate and affirmative choice to select "neither of the above." My understanding is that this is bullshit, and the people who don't vote are either busy, occupied, etc. and are otherwise demographically similar to those who do - or are felons, etc. who are not permitted to vote. Is this correct?

boner confessor posted:this is one reason why it's goofy for younger millenials to clutch pearls about hillary's "superpredator" comments. if you don't remember the late 80's/early 90's violent crime was way worse than now, and one of the theories was that criminals were just, like, extra worse. of course it wasn't true and it was racist and stupid, but basically everyone was buying into the idea at the time. much like brightly colored baggy pants and mc hammer, you had to have been there to really get it

WampaLord posted:I believe RuanGacho is saying that maybe if we just keep electing Democrats, we actually won't get a recession. Given that the tools to fight a recession are pretty much split between the Fed and Congress, electing Democratic Presidents is not going to do that much to stave off recessions. And the economy is basically "designed" to have recessions, state power is meant to be used to cool the economy down when it's going hot (instead of massive tax cuts) and stimulate it when it's slowing down (instead of massive tax cuts).

Hillary is probably in a town hall practice with instructions to her staffers to ask the most hosed up questions possible and paid Alec Baldwin to play as Trump. They are on hour 57 of practice.

The fact that literally all the low level State and Defense Department staff involved didn't get arrested or even in serious trouble either. Duh. Did people not notice that those emails were going to various low level staffers and not just Hillary?

Nessus posted:Well, we might get one in the sense of a mathematic recession, but "two quarters where there's some layoffs and the stock market dips to about 13.5k and then gets back up within a year" is a recession, but might not be the same experience as the life-devastating product of Republican policies that occurred in '08. If you ask an undecided voter three times why they are not voting, you will get three different answers They just do not want to be bothered with jt

I mean let's be real, ANYTHING Trump has done in the past year would have scuttled a billion different careers but he can escape it for some loving reason. I dunno if he can escape this though. On one hand nothing matters but on the other you can't really spin "grab her right in the pussy and she'll do whatever you want"

socialsecurity posted:Oh it was bad but it was portrayed as a lone cop going to far due to regret of his old friends death instead of a problem with the system itself. It wasn't, actually. Rewatch the 5 minutes before that scene. It was literally replaying stop and frisk, except it wasn't just because they were black, it was because they were black AND all black people must know each other so if you basically rough up enough black people, you'll eventually get someone to tell you where Luke Cage is. The child being beaten by the police was the culmination of that.

The Evangelicals have sold absolutely all their principles down the river for that glimmering SCOTUS seat. They don't give a poo poo. Someone in the crowd needs to whip out a phone and start playing Donald talking about grabbing pussy very very loudly just before Ryan starts talking.
