Middle class white people can listen to "hip hop" while receiving milquetoast liberal messaging about capitalism and meritocracy. The media loves it because media folks are boring urbanites who think Miranda invented Broadway hip-hop.

The thing I remember the most about that incident is bad dem defenders in the bad dem thread defended it because the joke itself was scripted and thus the actor's reaction must have also been scripted.

I don't understand this article. What is its argument?

If the ACA is repealed, Single Payer advocates suddenly have very strong ground to stand on for implementation. But, instead of saying "go ahead, we didn't like Obamacare anyway," almost all of them are rallying to throw as many wrenches into the process because they think the human cost is too great. It contrasts this with republicans, who even though they say the ACA is the biggest most shameful act of history, are willing to sabotage and destroy bills because they don't like them.

There's a scene where Benjamin Franklin is in a deep sleep and they tell him they're going to New Brunswick for booze and whores and he immediately leaps up.

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.

It's a lot easier psychologically to ignore reality than it is to accept that your view of the world and the place you have in it is completely wrong. Particularly if you belong to a caste of society that will be well off regardless of who's in power and political affiliation is little more than a brand choice.

Love is a tiny lion holding a donut!
I mean, Bernie was advocating for at least a public option if not full single payer for years even during Obama's first term when Dems were busy destroying any meaningful healthcare legislation and Hillary was off starting new wars with Obama. Hillfolk act like he just suddenly appeared in 2016 and wasn't harping on about making Obama care stronger for literally all of obama's terms. And what the gently caress is the deal with still trying to bash him when Hilldawg wont even show her face in this fight? If she was really loving bucking the system she'd ignore the DNC and stick her face outhere to say something besides "Russia stole my election." Like how are people still this invested in someone who doesn't even want to be seen.
