This dude is correct, he is just a dude with really lovely opinions, who isn't funny (and hasn't been since Mr. T Ate My Balls, Acts of Gord, Emotion Eric, etc. were popular), who we shouldn't listen to. Humans can do lovely things, say lovely things, and act irresponsible but they are still humans.

He's definitely not racist (in the equal-wages-for-illegal-immigrants article he actually went on at length about how the only argument against it relied heavily on racism), but he def said some pretty MRA-rear end poo poo see though what I'm doing is acknowledging that a person can have some good opinions and some bad ones rather than using the existence of bad opinions to invalidate good ones

Where does the party go in a presidential election where their candidate is already coming out of this with a million more votes than her opponent in growing? Hopefully, not too far. And, anyone purposefully trying advocate for some huge shift is likely someone trying to re-fight a primary they couldn’t win because their guy could not attract the diverse coalition that is the Democratic Party. If they try this coup, it’ll be beaten back, again. Trump was a unique candidate who managed to rearrange things just enough to win a unique election. The worst thing Dems could do is overreact to this. The GOP still needs to soul search and figure out why they allowed this. If we need to do anything it’s make sure we’re turning out our base better, which has ALWAYS been a problem with Democrats. No, we are not going to hang ourselves for not doing enough to attract racist white people with illegitimate persecution complexes. The biggest lie anyone could tell is that this was about legitimate economic anxiety. And, for people who don’t live here this stereotyping of the “Rustbelt” as some economic hellscape is ridiculous when you look at the recovery since the recession. What these voters wanted to hear was a racist, xenophobic appeal, and that is not something we could offer or ever desire to offer them. It’s not about the economy, stupid. It’s about a group of people who routinely prize their privilege above ALL else. Period. We don’t get those voters. We don’t want to get those voters. We turn out our base and we don’t even have to worry about this.

Can someone who remembers the right term to search for link me to zoux's ultimate meltdown in August? I did a search for all his posts in C-SPAM and he appears to have posted roughly 10,000,000 times on September 12 and 13 so it seemed kind of futile to just scroll through those until I find the meltdown ones

Anyway, maybe he is now, I don't know, but calling everyone you don't like an MRA is intellectually bankrupt.

No, we are not going to back of the bus because you desire most of what Trump does only you desire it from the left. Take that poo poo and walk. It ain’t right and it sure as hell ain’t progressive.

Harrison has an inspiring story and has made a lot of progress in SC but he's a corporate lobbyist working for the Podesta Group. I like Dean's 50 state strategy but,  , shouldn't that always be the strategy?Also, they won't vote until they need to or until all but 1 candidate has dropped out and that'll be after the new year.

Lots of good discussion here. But has anyone considered the meme gap? The right has the dankest of the dank memeology. The left had Hillary's embarrassing fellow kids forced memes. I think the comparative quality of memage helped Trump over the line. The left should be dominating social media considering the millennial vote but it's just not happening.

Pro tip: the only people who don't think elections are about the economy are those who are economically privileged. And that's usually people living on the coasts. Just like those who think social issues are just a distraction are socially privileged.
