Xombie posted:The reason why calorie counting is hard is because it takes a significant amount of discipline and consistency that people usually aren't willing to put in. This is also the reason why the majority of people end up gaining weight back on literally every type of diet. Straight calorie counting, however, has by far the highest long-term success rate.

Is the DNC supporting candidates that are actually pushing pro-life public policy? From what I understand they are going to stop having "pro-life" as a deal breaker for funding local candidates. The problem is that pro-life is just code for punishing women and has little to do with actually protecting babies or lowing the rate of abortions as has been discussed here many times so allowing the party to even put their toe into that is opening the door for even more concessions on other social policies. It's a very disturbing idea that they are looking at Trump's voters and deciding that they need some of those people and are willing to compromise with them on issues that affect women's health and doesn't leave a good feeling they won't abandon other groups.

This is the danger of Trump, he's compromising the entire political spectrum, the Democrats aren't going unmolested by the nightmare of this administration and the spectacle it provides is distracting a lot of people from a horrifying rightward lurch in the DNC since donor cash is all that matters fundamentally.

He's wrong there too. This is something I don't think should be compromised on. It's a huge mistake and won't result in any electoral wins as pro-lifers are concerned with the punishment of women which the Democrats, at least not yet, can't be counted on as well as Republicans.

A mayor could actually threaten women's reproductive rights while a pro choice Democrat in the house can whine all they want while putting Nancy Pelosi in power.

This is something I don't think should be compromised on. yeah, i agree there's a real tendency to view women's rights issues as parochial interest-group issues that can be compromised on where things that affect men are considered interests that affect everyone i have no problem with people who personally feel uncomfortable with abortion, but it's where you start trying to legislate that onto other people that it becomes a problem i think the reality is that in some deep-red shitholes its going to be the only choice but it shouldn't be something thats considered more acceptable to compromise on than any other vitally important part of the democratic platform
