VitalSigns posted:That's why I said "ultrawoke folk" ie not the nonvoting young and poor and the PoC who are disenfranchised, but the ones who could have voted to protect those people but chose not to exercise the privilege. Aaaaalmost believable if you didn't relentlessly berate every disenfranchised person you encounter for their "wokeness," rape joke guy. Nobody offends you more than people who have problems you can't attribute to failing to be Vital Signs so maybe you stop telling people how to live and start chewing.

At least with the rightwing conspiracy theorists, they make the story about some secret hidden from the public about devil worshipping abortion doctors, her stuff seems to be "got word they will be serving the impeachment papers by tomorrow" and that one is just disproven by time, but the rightwing conspiracy theory will keep living on.

Unormal posted:Can someone tell me why carry-on laptops can explode but checked laptops can't? I think the ideas planting an explosive or their components inside a laptop disguise hoping to convince any inspectors (if you can call those idiots that) they're laptop parts. Later, they'll get the explosive ready for boom boom in the bathroom or something. Then once on the plane or wherever they can set it off. It's just easier to slip by without it getting noticed, to the target, and actually set off at the right time bringing in parts rather than a ready to boom bomb. Then there's the type of explosive used. Some shake and bake explosives (organic peroxides) tend to go boom whenever they feel like so mixing them on site's a good idea.

Yeah, her being posted has been kinda comforting, actually. With the right wing, you get thernovich posting "LIBCUCKS RAPE AND THEN EAT BABIES TO TASTE THEIR OWN CUCKCUM I HAVE PROOF: [literally just a white image with black text that says "Hey Mike, I just found out that libcucks rape and then eat babies in order to taste their own cum. Frightening stuff."]" And the brokebrains on the right eat it up with a spoon. a year later, you'll still have alt-righties in arguments saying "WELL YOU RAPE AND EAT BABIES TO TASTE YOUR OWN CUM, LIBCUCK! PROOF: [link to original tweet, still up in defiance of decency and god's will]". Mensch get posted here, and we have a few people saying "…Oh man, I want this to be true, but is anyone else backing it up?" Then someone else says "No, she's full of poo poo" and we go back to debating if donald making GBS threads himself at a press conference, and asking a reporter if she's his mommy will actually matter.

I wasn't berating "every" person, I was berating Trabisnikov for making a specific bad argument and by extension everyone who agrees with that argument: the argument that it's fine to choose not to vote in Texas because Republicans always win anyway. I think the existence of voter suppression imposes an even greater duty on comfortable White people who have the choice to vote to do so to protect the disenfranchised minorites that are the victims our despicable state government. "Republicans always win" is a lazy cop-out from people who have the privilege to vote and choose not to, but I value your perspective: what do you say to people like Trabisnikov? Sorry about the rear end-loving joke, I agree it was crude and unnecessary of me.

I was gonna say that it's pretty neat/awful watching the diplomacy of the last 70+ years unravel in real time, but it's not really real time. We're fast forwarding. In just the last few weeks we've betrayed British and Israeli intelligence, failed to pledge adherence to NATO mutual defense, and dropped out of the UN climate accord (rumored, but uhh). We're cozying up to our largest enemy of the last ~60 years (after getting duped by them in the election) while alienating our most serious allies, and the whole world knows that we elected a mentally deficient crook. And that's not even getting into all the domestic issues. I can't even imagine what the world will look like if this keeps up for the next four years.

Maybe that could be a good thing in some circumstances but in this case it's not. Russia seems to have a pretty good understanding of internet propoganda and is pushing and supporting far right ideologies across the world. I am not exactly sure why though that benefits them specifically unless far right government are more likely to be isolationist. I'd actually like to know why they are because it seems with far right governments war seems more likely.

zonohedron posted:Sure. I grew up in a solid red district and now live in a totally different somewhat-bluer district, in states where the electoral votes are a foregone conclusion, and there's always some races where a Republican (or a Libertarian!) is running unopposed. But I would be very surprised to find any ballot, anywhere in the US, that in 2016 had HRC on the ballot and no other Democrats, even in Darkest Horrible Darkness, Idaho. I admit I probably pulled out the "stupid mother fucker" on farrady too early. America sucks, those Canadians own.

flashman posted:Not voting because neither option offers you what you deem important is legitimate. It is the job of the party to win those votes, not the obligation of the voter to press D because they aren't the Republicans. This is it, this is the problem right here, and why people keep calling this choice evidence of being an utter shithead. If you don't deem the rights of minorities/Muslims/LGBTQ folks/women/prisoners of war/etc, or for that matter healthcare and the environment in general, if you don't deem any of that and a thousand other things we're looking at losing/have already lost important enough to vote for someone you aren't entirely satisfied with when you are fully capable of doing so then you are a loving rear end in a top hat. Trump made no secret about how he felt and what he was going to do and surrounded himself with people of arguably even worse opinions, it's not like anything about this administration is remotely a surprise to anyone paying any kind of attention (except, perhaps, how incompetent they are). Of course it's a legitimate decision. It's also a legitimately lovely and selfish decision. All decisions come with consequences, and being regarded as a loving rear end in a top hat goes along with this one. I am so tired of the false equivalency of the 2016 election, like there was barely any space between Trump and Clinton. There was a loving mile wide canyon. People need to stop making excuses.

If opposing a rapist Nazi traitor scumbag conman science-denying pedophile dumbass manchild from seizing absolute uncontested power isn't important to you, you at least need to own that poo poo and say "I don't care about burning down the world if I don't see what's in it for me personally". You people would be loving atrocious in an action movie, you know that? "Sure, the sphere is going to wipe out all life in the universe, but what has the fifth element ever done for us? Besides, life isn't perfect, maybe an unending hellscape of death and torture is what we need to whip things into shape" This is the major takeaway from the election - people just don't loving care about opposing racism, sexism, homophobia, hate, greed, all of that as much as right wingers care about supporting those things. But somehow, that is the parties failure, and not a sign of the voters being hosed up people. flashman posted:If you think the Democrats platform was progressive I'm not sure what to tell you. \ I think the next president actually does need to go on an apology tour, and own it. However, she can't say that she's apologizing for America, she has to say she's apologizing for Republicans. Say they are stupid, violent, corrupt and cruel, and that America will do everything it can to stop Republicans getting elected again. Adopt the tone of a single mother apologizing for an atrociously behaved child, give the sense that the adults are back now. Nocturtle posted:How many of those were in swing states though? In the electoral college system a lot of those people would have been completely correct to conclude their vote was irrelevant. And yet they didn't see that problem in 2012. bencreateddisco posted:The libs in here complaining about voter apathy are the political equivalent of "red-pilled" loudly complaining about how vapid women are for not being interested in them. I must have missed how someone not sleeping with a guy leads to millions of people dying, something that the woman is fully aware of and yet she still doesn't see any good reason to do it. ToxicSlurpee posted:It isn't just laziness. Americans as a whole are disillusioned with politics something fierce. The support for the Democratic party by registered Democrats is often luke warm at best. They just aren't a left party anymore. They're still corporate-owned centrists. They're better than Republicans sure but it's hard to motivate Democrat voters for some very good reasons. No matter what happens Wall Street is still in control. The reason why its hard to motivate Democratic voters is largely because so many of them will gladly accept this kind of horseshit propaganda as the absolute truth and will actively fight against any attempt to disabuse them of this notion. The reason for so many problems in America is largely because people keep saying "politicians" in cases where they should be saying "Republicans". "Republicans" always break their campaign promises. "Republicans" just want to seize more power and don't care about average Americans. "Republicans" only listen to their corporate masters and will never do anything to offend them.
