Accretionist posted: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. Also, like, they do realize the Obama coalition that was supposed to be unbreakable and guarantee a Democrat White House forever still relied on white working class voters? Not exclusively or anything but the absolute stupidest takeaway from 2008/2012 was "we literally can run on a platform of "kill all poor whites" and win".

If they are poor despite their privilege, they must be losers, if they are losers, they must be racist since those terms are interchangeable. QED.

I don't know how many of you may watch Pokemon XYZ, but this season Ash Ketchum made it to the final round of the championships for the first time in the series 20 year history. He had the strongest team hr had ever had, and was really showing himself to be a much more experienced and wizened trainer than ever before. He even brought a pseudo legendary, Goodra, and developed a unique ability to bond with his Greninja never before seen in the series or games, making it extraordinarily powerful. He made it to the last Pokemon vs Alain, who had a mega Charizard, meaning it's most powerful attacks has type disadvantage against Ash-Greninja. Even though the mega Charizard had thunder punch, Ash-Greninja deflected or dodged it every time. It came down to one giant water shuriken vs one giant blast burn. Mega Charizard won the day. It was Ash's most grueling defeat in the series, but he took it in stride. What I'm saying here though, and my main point, is Bernie would have won.

Thoguh posted:They equate 'working class whites' to be 100% overlapping with 'superracists' to the type of person that classifies voters by demographic, they are obviously all exactly the same, so since some poor white people voted for trump for racist reasons this means every poor white person is a racist maniac unfortunately this is a ton of loving people especially within the Democratic party (see: Tatum Girlparts' post history) and they need to knock it off. different people vote for different things

One thing I've learned from Pokémon is that 20 years of failing at something makes ash a giant loser piece of poo poo. gently caress losing in stride, ash should've shanked that piece of poo poo Alain.

Should have made Alain the star of the show. The mega-evolution specials he starred in were way better than the main series. Sun&Moon is pretty legit though.

This post makes me feel old because I don't know any of the Pokemon here except Charizard, unless "Mega" Charizard is different, then I know none. God I got Pokemon Blue 20 years ago for my birthday.

Thoguh posted:They equate 'working class whites' to be 100% overlapping with 'superracists' I've had multiple conversations like: Me: Not all working-class whites are racist. Them: I know that! Me: We need working-class white turnout. Them: We shouldn't be nice to racists. Me: Not all working-class whites are racist. And all with Hillfolk who think progressives are voting against their own interests, just like conversatives, by not supporting Democratic centrists.

Israel is a bigtime rear end in a top hat state but it's just really funny to watch someone from a country where blood libel poo poo gets reported by news organizations as a real thing complaining about someone else being anti-Semitic.

Well What Now posted:lol at someone from a Persian Gulf country complaining about another country's anti-Semitism Lol at a stupid person who thinks acting smarm makes his opinion correct. also LOL it's great that you're judging the standards of the US with absolute monarchies really good prospects and outlook for you. Also, those blood libel anti-Semitic propaganda countries are some of Israels best allies in the region so birds of a feather I guess. Al-Saqr has issued a correction as of 00:06 on Dec 3, 2016 |

Accretionist posted:I've had multiple conversations like: These people tend to be super stuck on identity politics but the version that surgically removes class as an identity, so a white dude from a former mining town in WV that hasn't had a steady job in decades and is basically just slowly watching his town die off due to people leaving for jobs and meth addiction is just as privileged and in charge as the Koch brothers. Class struggle is totally alien to them because the only point of identity politics is respecting and recognizing eachother's identities, not radical overhaul of the economic system to end exploitation and poverty.

humans of new york is doing a feature on Macomb County, Michigan which is on one hand UGH that coastal liberals see blue collar america as this foreign exotic thing, but on the other hand good that it's trying to evoke some sort of empathy for these people?

Others dig in hard and go "they're white cis het men, if they're still poor it's their problem, move to the city if you can't find a job". Or they kinda get it but don't get that addressing class is more than a candidate who technically supports a $15 minimum wage but tries to hide it so their donors don't get upset and is personally ashamed of it. Or they get it, but also get that the labor movement in the US in the past has dumped poor black folks if it meant poor white folks got something they wanted and so their solution is to first solve race/sex/etcism, then go back and fix class.
