i wish the adl denouncement would foreshadow an end to democratic support of vicariously living through israel's brutally oppressive military, but keith ellison is a big israel fan and has worked to pass huge funding bills for them. at least hes a two state solution guy

Just heard someone on NPR saying we need to get rid of working-class whites. Other interviewees were like, "Really? Really?," but still. I hope this poo poo doesn't poison party reformation. Clinton pulled millions of poor whites. That's millions of Democratic voters right there, yet I keep hearing people saying we need to get rid of them or they're the enemy. Like god drat, people. That's millions of your existing base.

Barracuda Bang! posted:I'm in Queens and it feels like below the county level, there are these Democratic clubs that function as old white people social clubs. These are the rules for King's County, and I bet Queens is similar. The only reason these rules are even accessible is because of the work of the New Kings Democrats got organized enough to get them put online. What's interesting is the bylaws for proxy votes: quote:A quorum at all meetings of the County Committee for the purpose of transacting any business shall consist of 450 members present in person or by proxy. All action by the County Committee shall require the affirmative vote of a majority of votes cast. In the event a quorum is not present at any meeting, no action other than to adjourn said meeting may be taken. So a quorum is needed, but the quorum can be achieved by proxy-votes. quote:The Chairperson of the Executive Committee shall, together with the Notice of the Organizational Meeting, send out Proxy forms in the following manner: quote:b. In all other cases, the proposed Proxy Holder shall be the Chairperson of the Executive Committee or his or her designee. Democracy in Action!

steinrokkan posted:Right. Conservatives are programmed to hate "punishing success" and "acting entitled". But surely they can be made to support a punishment for unfairness and exploitation, especially when they themselves are victims. However, this would require a politician capable of calling out the billionaire class out for what they really are, instead of trying to stand up for them and treating them as Gods among men. You say something like: "If you work for a company or large corporation making a product or doing a service, and then that company makes a profit, your boss, your boss's boss and all the way up to the CEO and top-level executives get pay raises and bonuses. Where are your pay raises and your bonuses? You did your job just as much as they did theirs, probably more so to create your company's profit! So again, what about your pay raise and your bonus? Also, when stockholders and shareholders, who by the way, do not work at your company, do not make the product, do not do the service, they just put money into it to 'let it grow,' when your company makes profits on sales of goods and services, these stockholders and shareholders share in your company's profits. All these people did was put money into your company while you worked hard so they could make a little extra cash from the profits you helped create. What about your share in the profits that you helped create? And if lower taxes on your CEOs and your company are supposed to allow them to pay you more, why aren't you getting paid more? It seems that something is terribly wrong here when all of these people get to earn higher wages, bonuses, and profit-shares from your hard work and you don't see an extra nickel and these people are actively working against you earning higher wages so they can pad their own wallets and bank accounts. Speaking of bank accounts, many of these ultra-rich executives and corporations you work for stash their money on offshore accounts so they can avoid paying taxes on that money, while you pay taxes on the full amount of your income, not to forget that for many of you, it's often very difficult to fathom having any reasonable amount of emergency money in a basic banking account right here in the US, much less millions and billions of untaxed money in foreign bank accounts."

Yeah, that's mentioned in the article. But turns out spurning large public appearances in favor of private fundraisers doesn't work when you don't spend the goddamn money effectively either because you have no message that connects with people at large because you've spurned large public appearances to test your material.

Both for the poo poo with Sanders during the primary and during the GE they did the "Trump and his supporters are saying this, Hillary and her supporters are saying this.
