Blew my mind; I had only gone because I had heard "Werewolves", "Lawyers", and "Excitable" and I had nothing else to do that night. Zevon is one of those guys that slide by if you're not seriously into rock. He has so many fantastic songs that never could have made it mainstream. True story: Long time ago I was working manual labor at a hotel and was loading some poo poo into the elevator and the musak was going and there was this grey haired suit riding with me and we both looked at each other and sang "and he dug up her grave and built a cage from her bones" because there was a musak arrangement of that weird song. Then we laughed and he went on to be a millionaire or whatever. TL/DR: Balloogan was the one to suggest to Cernovitch that drinking his own cum was an option

Ursine Catastrophe posted:Wait we nominated who?: A GOP Thread Retrospective  Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you, the inevitable nominee and future president. This is totally not an out-of-touch and souring act of desperation that stays in peoples minds.[/quote] That one doesn't show all the primaries between Iowa and the convention, so I made a chart for all the states and territories:  As you can see, things will really pick up after the first four primaries (IA, NH, SC, NV). That's when it might be difficult for someone without a good ground game (Trump, for instance) to be everywhere at once. EDIT: Also, this one isn't a pie chart either.[/quote]    [/quote]I’m a liberal-left college professor in the social sciences. I’m going to vote for Trump but I won’t tell hardly anybody. My main reason is anger at the two-party system and the horrible presidencies of Obama and Bush. But I’m also furious at political correctness on campus and in the media. I’m angry at forced diversity and constant, frequently unjustified complaints about racism/sexism/homophobia/lack of trans rights. I’m particularly angry at social justice warriors and my main reason to vote Trump is to see the looks on your faces when he wins. It’s not that I like Trump. It’s that I hate those who can’t stand him. I want them to suffer the shock of knowing all their torrents of blog posts and Tumblr bitch-fests and “I just can’t ...” and accusations of mansplaining didn’t actually matter. That they’re still losing. And that things are not getting better for them. They’re getting worse.[/quote] https://www.washingtonpost.com/nati...1910_story.html I'm glad the Washington Post did such a great job profiling this guy. I feel for him, but I don't get why, if he feels exploited and stuck, he doesn't support Bernie Sanders instead. What is the determining factor that makes someone who feels lost in the economy go Sanders or Trump?[/quote] It's so terrifying seeing apparently intelligent young people unironically parroting dumb Trump talking points. But it just goes to prove one of my core bits of life philosophy, which is that being intelligent does not in fact inoculate someone from belief in staggeringly moronic nonsense, and in fact may leave them vulnerable to particular types of it. Like how anarcho-capitalism appeals to a bunch of otherwise brilliant college students, or how a lot of dominionists are actually quite smart people. Intelligence can be, and often is put to service for moronic ideas. If an intelligent person takes their own intelligence as a sign of their superior ability in seeking out the truth, they're probably gonna roll around in the poop, metaphorically speaking. It takes humility, self-awareness, and empathy to avoid being suckered into a chronically stupid set of ideas; Trump supporters lack all three, as we've seen in this very thread, with people like Saurus and Boosted showing their total disinterest in the value and basic human dignity of people that are not like them. Which is more than just psychopathic - it's stupid. and I don't care that this might not be an effective line against the Trumpeters, who revel in their cosmic denseness. I just want to take the opportunity to state my unfiltered opinion of these people, because they're exhausting. They were amusing before, but the reaction to what happened in Chicago and to Trump's incitement to violence shows just how ugly they are on a moral level. This is not funny anymore, people, it's horrifying. It shows that at least a solid 25% of the American voting body are loving barbarians. My mother always said the percentage of the population that are irredeemable assholes is around 15%, but nope, it's 25%, clearly. Now, they might have their reasons, and they might have been hosed over repeatedly by sociopathic free trade loving rich bastards in both parties, but that does not excuse what we've seen and heard from them, and it does not excuse their support of Trump. I don't care to compare Trump to Hitler or any other fascist, racist nationalist, or cult of personality. What matters is that he's a toxic, divisive figure that endorses the dumbest poo poo consistently. For every reasonable opinion he has, he has twenty batshit insane opinions. He wouldn't make America great again - look at what people are saying about him around the world. I mean, I know that the Trumpeters and Republicans in general have a bloody-minded unwillingness to factor in the opinions of the rest of the world, but it matters. We have to elect a leader the rest of the world will respect, and Trump is not that leader. They all think he's a loving clown, and he wouldn't prove them wrong. A world leader worthy of respect would not brag about their penis on national television. But I guess this sort of thing is part of the appeal for the Trumpeters. They want a candidate that shares their values, and Trump's gutter rhetoric confirms to them that he is their man. Still, they have no consideration for how Trump's rhetoric might come off to anyone else, and there we see the lack of awareness and the lack of empathy on full display. We say to them "don't you see how it might bother some people that Trump wants to institute a religious test on who's allowed to enter the country?" and they respond with something like "lol, Muslim-loving liberal". We ask about The Wall, and they repeat Trump's assertion that Mexico would pay for it, absent any rational reason why this would end up coming to pass. We point out his history of misogynistic and racist statements, and they say "gently caress PC". Like the whole PC thing wasn't a Rush Limbaugh talking point in the beginning, which of course it was, and it was never, ever about anything other than white men being upset about being unable to sexually harass women and say the n-word. Others have taken up the charge in response to a small group of idiot slacktivists with too much time on their hands and a poor understanding of what a microaggression is; they claim that these dumb kids are the real problem, in a classic instance of false equivalency. Yet the number of what have been termed "SJWs" is dwarfed by the number of people frustrated that they have to say racist, sexist, and homophobic things in coded language, and even there may be called out. They could realize that saying hurtful and demeaning things about people for aspects that they have no control over is a thing assholes do, but they'd rather continue being assholes and whine about how their free speech is being suppressed. Maybe you could, I dunno, stop saying demeaning poo poo to people, and if you say something that someone finds insulting, have an honest conversation rather than getting defensive? Nah, that's clearly too much work. Easier to pretend you're the real victim, and this big bad PC culture is bullying you, telling you that you can't "tell it like it is" (and really, when has "tell it like it is" NOT been used to refer to someone shameless enough to say the offensive poo poo others are restrained from saying because they know the consequences?). It's endlessly depressing to me how many intelligent people adopt this anti-PC rhetoric. Maybe it's uncharitable to suggest that they all want to call women cunts. Some, I assume, are sincere free speech advocates. But those people should be aware of whom they're making common cause with, and it's an ugly group. It's amazing to me how it doesn't bother people when they make common cause with giant assholes. It bothers me that Richard Dawkins and Sam Harris are out there speaking for atheism, and that Cornel West and Al Sharpton are out there speaking about racial injustice. It doesn't mean that they don't have some valid points, but I won't defend the rear end in a top hat saying them or the excesses of their rhetoric. The most reasonable Trumpeters seem to have no compunction defending the worst among their brethren, and of course defending or brushing off the verbal diarrhea emitting from the mouth of their candidate. Disclaimer: I am a former Bernout turned reluctant Clinton supporter, and a white male probably straight autistic atheist about to get a BA in Psychology, so this is pretty much throwing stones while living in a glass house. TLDR - I can't stand Trump or his supporters anymore, and I don't really care if the SA Trump supporters are trolling, I prefer to think they're serious about being giant pricks. gently caress 'em.[/quote] [/quote] loving incredible post :5:

prefect posted:Wait, did he actually say that they're trying to suppress votes? quote:“We have three major voter suppression operations under way,” says a senior official. They’re aimed at three groups Clinton needs to win overwhelmingly: idealistic white liberals, young women, and African Americans. Trump’s invocation at the debate of Clinton’s WikiLeaks e-mails and support for the Trans-Pacific Partnership was designed to turn off Sanders supporters. The parade of women who say they were sexually assaulted by Bill Clinton and harassed or threatened by Hillary is meant to undermine her appeal to young women. And her 1996 suggestion that some African American males are “super predators” is the basis of a below-the-radar effort to discourage infrequent black voters from showing up at the polls—particularly in Florida. "a senior official" and recently which means probably Flynn or Kushner or hell, Rudy why not Apparently they spent a lot of time showing off some South Park style animation of Clinton saying Superpredators that they're distributing widel - wait no, hold on correction: quote:The animation will be delivered to certain African American voters through Facebook “dark posts”—nonpublic posts whose viewership the campaign controls so that, as Parscale puts it, “only the people we want to see it, see it.” basically they're all loving morons

The pitches are out there, this isn't a new issue. They've spoken and they want to stick with coal and they've been told it's a dying industry. They'll find relief if it's forced on them otherwise they'll all die and so will their communities because their kids are already fleeing ASAP. Sunrise, sunset. Even the jobs that do get created or stick around are lovely because they're the first states to union bust too. I don't hate them but if they want to wither away then I'm not going to stop them. This isn't the first time coal country would need to be saved from itself by socialism

quote:loving incredible post :5: Nice meltdown. But, really, where is this idea coming from that there's going to be a groundswell of college-educated white males secretly voting for Trump? I know he has some support among white males on both sides of college, but I keep seeing this conspiracy theory that like 80% of college-educated white males haven't expressed support for Trump and are going to go in there and vote for him. Some moron in a friend's Facebook feed went ape poo poo on him the other day and said, "you're probably going to vote for Trump in secret, you Misogynist rear end in a top hat," apropos of nothing. He hadn't said anything misogynist or Trumpian. He just had the nerve to say he supported Bernie and he's not that enthusiastic about Clinton despite voting for her. He is a college professor and a hardcore progressive. She is also liberal, from what I can gather, but she's just completely nuts. I'm just enjoying the right tear itself to pieces that it annoys me when the left gets jealous and tries to steal the act. I only want to see right-wing jackals cannibalize each other.
