Sure. Yes. Not because of that at all. People just see stuff about groups having disparate levels of power and it makes them think of oral rape sex being demanded from minorities. Naturally. Because they are normal.

the dems were beaten on that slogan: http://abetterway.speaker.gov someone on dailykos suggested "the real deal" for a dem slogan and that's 1000x better imo.

Iron Twinkie posted:I can't remember the last time I was this hyped to be disappointed. There's a chance that it's just some water-down version of the 2016 platform, but the Democrats have been specializing in creating means tested, bureaucratic nightmare policies that help no one for decades. They could really bring their A game. it's gonna take a lot for me to be any more disappointed in the democrats than i already am, and i'm in it in some sort of official capacity.

Venom Snake posted:A lot has changed since 2009; and I'm only saying that because chuck at the very least seems to realize that the party is going to get hosed if it doesn't wake up Schumer still has his name on some of the worst poo poo that had dems voting for like this year. I'm still not sold on it being anything but performance to avoid a nasty primary.

I agree with this take on the new dem slogan:quote:A Better Deal.” Sounds pretty “Okay.” It is the nice conflation of the 80 year old “New Deal” along with the bipartisan, moderate, temperate and very adult Third Way which recognizes the importance of the status quo of Wall St, health insurance companies, banks and all the other industries that have vast government lobbying. It’s not a “Good Deal,” it is just a better deal than a really bad deal. “Don’t expect too much, there are lots of factions that need to be kept happy.”

I was first turned on to the Culture series by a Dark Enlightenment reactionary who praised the books in spite of the degenerate anarcho-communism. There's something about the Culture books that's just innately appealing, I guess because Banks takes the implications of its science and politics very seriously, but also because he doesn't necessarily portray the Culture as an objective good in itself. Other civilizations have pretty justifiable philosophical reasons for why they don't want to become a part of the Culture.

i might give the Culture books a read i havent been able to enjoy scifi stories since I finished Malazan. fantasy is mostly a cynical, nihilistic circlejerk and i dont actually care about the science in most scifi poo poo, i just want fantasy novels ~in space~

my favorite part of the culture series is how all of the protagonists are people who got bored of the culture and joined the organization that lets u murder people

Fallen Hamprince posted:Totally not a cult guys I'm happy to see he's probably going to run again but he hasn't earned my vote yet until I see what the rest of the candidate field is looking like, and among the Bernie voters I'm familiar with, the vast majority of them share my stance. Someone younger and more lefty is going to pop up eventually and they're going to get my vote most likely The memes about Bernie coming back are mostly tongue in cheek and I know you know this and you're attempting a false equivalence between that stuff and the Democrats' fight songs and endless books about how incredibly qualified and glorious Her Majesty was Anyway the replies to @TheHill are p good.
