Let me know if a more reputable site than mother Jones picks up that story. I don't disbelieve but I want to post about it and I can't really use them as a source.

greatn posted:Why DOES Clinton get these weirdos like Podesta and Penn in her operations? She has a lot of great people, but I feel like Obama didn't have these problems with staffers sending optically bad emails and looking dumb. Of course maybe he would have if he had been hacked. Pretty much this. Also, I'm sure the Trump campaign would have far, far worse stuff, but hackers don't seem to be interested in them for some reason.

Alternately racist rear end in a top hat can be barred from posting in USPOL, thus making the thread an immeasurably more enjoyable reading experience

Lemming posted:Telling the FBI you found their bug sounds like a mistake They didn't find a bug quote:The second sweep, according to the Democratic officials, found a radio signal near the chairman's office that indicated there might be a listening device outside the office. "We were told that this was something that could pick up calls from cell phones," a DNC official says. "The guys who did the sweep said it was a strong indication." No device was recovered. No possible culprits were identified.

Also that picture of Jon Favreau (from Keepin it 1600) grabbing the cutout of Hillary's boob is probably all you need to know that Obama's campaigns emails would have poo poo that UNAFFILIATED HACKERS would want Deplorable Len to be tweeting.

Ignoring the question of if it's true or not: that the world has been on a consistent, long-term trend for the better - with exceptions -, and that e.g. ancient Rome was a much worse society than contemporary USA is controversial ITT because - it sounds to some like ignoring, or even apologizing, faults of contemporary US society - because it sounds like telling a story of history as the progression of White men from living in the swamps to having iPhones, while, through all of this history, gaining their riches by stealing from everyone else - because - on a more global scale - it can be understood of arguing for the world as is as being perfect and not requiring further progress; that if you are currently not a privileged member of Western society, you have nothing to complain about because, hey, you're not living quite as bad as a Helot! Am I understanding this correctly? Not trying to argue, I'll not try to rebut you if you correct me.

Cingulate posted:The problem is you don't really have another option. You can either assume your samples (states) are fully independent - which is wrong and will lead to artificially increased certainty - or you can try to come up with some measure of their correlation. drat it if you do, drat it if you don't - but generally, you want to assume correlation somehow. I'd say probably another way to do it would be by more fine-grained demography and relative support among those splits (education, sex, race, geography, etc.) for each candidate including voting trends.

BarbarianElephant posted:Gay marriage was not a wholly liberal issue, because rich and powerful people can also be gay and have gay friends and family. There were some gay conservative groups pushing for gay marriage. Of course, in 20 years time, it'll be all the noble conservatives pushing through gay marriage against the vehement protestations of the bigoted liberals (who came up with Don't ask, Don't tell!) The push for gay marriage came out of the AIDS epidemic when victims were dying and their partners couldn't be with them in the hospitals. Back before Stonewall, there was the Homophile movement, which was assimilationist and was primarily led by white cisgender men. After Stonewall happened, there was a lot of friction within the gay rights movements between the older generation of gay men, who tended to play respectability politics, and the younger, more diverse crowd who weren't interested in assimilation and having to hide their queerness. poo poo's complex.

Dirt posted:The plot thickens: I feel like that story is a lot of hot nothing trying to ride the atmosphere of campaign paranoia. They didn't even find a device, just a signal or something that may have been a device after two separate sweeps. I'm getting really sick of undercooked stories banking entirely on innuendo. Trump's supposed internet connection to Moscow, the Brett Baier Clinton Foundation indictment, all the millions of stories backed entirely by a single anonymous source with dramatic allegations. loving stop, news media. Half the reason this election seems so "crazy" is because our news media is reporting every loving rumor as if it were breaking news. The other half is Donald Trump is running for President.
