Communism will help more white people than anyone else. Any equal measures unfairly provide less to minority populations just because there's less of them. Democracy is truly the tyranny of the mob.

I blame the monopolization of radio for the universal law that I only hear songs I actually like either when they're just ending or when I have to leave the car

and of course, end in this case means "the dj comes in and fades it out halfway through the song because gently caress your tastes, we got more KISS to play, goddamnit"

edit: i mean, it wasn't until the internet came about that i was even able to listen to ziggy stardust.

E: So does this make Macron France's Obama equivalent? A clean cut genial technocrat who will oversee the decay of his party, do little to nothing for his people, and then usher in a right wing lunatic?

He comes off as even worse, at least as a person. I also don't remember Obama aggressively attacking labor and making the status quo much worse, even though he wasn't an ally.

Honestly I have trouble thinking of a worse politician that doesn't already explicitly define themselves as right-wing/conservative. It's like he's some living avatar of all the worst stereotypes leftists have of centrists/whatever. Like, for a while I thought "I'm not a big fan but maybe he's not really that terrible" but nope he really is that awful.

Macron is basically a perfect example of how "being verbally opposed to Trump/Republicans" is plenty to earn a politician "liberal cred" in the eyes of a large portion of American liberals, because in terms of his actual personal and political beliefs the man is a loving ghoul.

edit: I think another thing that appeals to liberals is that Macron very much has a "young, clean-cut, well educated professional" look/demeanor, which is basically what liberals consider the ideal state of humanity. It seems like Jon Ossoff is the same sort of person (in the US another thing liberals really like, at least in white politicians, is having a "neutral" accent).

in knoxville, there's good stations, but anywhere outside of the knox county line you have to sandpaper your fingers to get a good signal on most of them (exceptespecially with a digital radio) -- fulton high school's falcon radio and the university of tennessee's college rock station.

WDVX plays a shitload of good music, too. they mainly play bluegrass and alt-country, but when you tune in at the right time, you can hear anything from western swing, blues, and rare local r&b acts from the 60s.

EDIT: wdvx was how i found out the marshall tucker band had more songs than "heard it in a love song" and "fire on the mountain."

EDIT EDIT: now i wanna hear willie nelson cover "this ol cowboy"

My wife loses sleep over the state of politics, especially healthcare, and has to stay several days behind on news because the horror is too much to process in real time. I have to use my skills of ironic detachment to filter the insanity through to her and try to find reassuring things to say about stuff like the Senate healthcare vote. I'm mostly still mad about Clinton because trying to process the madness of Trump and the Republicans is still too much to even have real coherent thoughts on.

Goodwill store radio is oddly feast or famine. Houdini, Pompeii, King without a Crown, Chocolate, then into some classics like goodbye stranger.
After 6 it's trash club music and a remix of Q.U.E.E.N. that is the worst song I've ever heard and I like the original song.

my secret is that the republicans are a level of evil you can expect and predict, they don't have any standards

the Democrats pretend to, and when they get behind giving the Saudis white phosphorous or pushing through right wing healthcare plans, then proceed to demand my vote, is when I get actually angry
