Ironic because Hillary hates video games!

I remember when the primary thing I had to resent Hillary Clinton over was her being very concerned about our teen 1337 h4x0rz being exposed to polygon porn after hacking GTA San Andreas open with a hex editor to find it

during a time period when any 9-year-old could type "sex" into Kazaa and get Jenna Jameson's greatest hits in .wmv format

don't be silly

they probably won't rehabilitate him till 2028, when David Duke wins the presidency

it really is amazing how fast people forgot how bad bush was though

the guy's favorability rating was in the low 30s when he left office. now it's 59%, only a few points below Obama

she's right you need to activate those that were discouraged from voting last time and/or are new to the process before they get disillusioned.

I clicked on the Trump thread to see what this is about and it is really weird how it turned from a place that made jokes about Trump into mirror universe Freep being hysterical about Obama circa 2010.

Oh well to each his own I suppose

The problem with something like the Trump thread is that it encourages people to constantly reflexively react to every outrageous and iditiotic event that spews forth from the Trump admin every morning, noon, and night. One falls into a recursive reactionary loop where the Trump administration becomes a point of obsessive hatred, until you start to believe that the Trump admin must be deposed by any means available - even if it means electing bad centrist Democrats who laid the groundwork for the Trump administration in the first place. Their locus of thought is placed squarely on the oval office, until all notions of ideology and progress are completely subsumed by a narrow minded opposition defined solely by a context established by Trump.

It's mostly about being sad and depressed about how awful the country is now instead of being smug about Clinton losing because it doesn't really negatively impact you.

seeing centrists whipping out "you're racist cause you don't like kamala harris!!" followed by actual racism towards nina turner and transphobia towards chelsea manning has really shown centrists as the false allies to social justice they always were

While the issue in itself was basically a minor footnote of her career, I personally hold it against her not because I like video games but more of it was blatant reactionary uninformed calls for censorship, much like comic books had in the 70s.
To call for such censorship means you don't give a drat about free speech and just want votes from the demographic you're targeting

She's made it clear in the years since that my concerns are valid and proven as such many times over in the course of 2 presidential campaigns.

even if i agreed with your dumb premise, that still makes the left better cause they at least want economic justice. centrists just want everything to stay the same forever!

however, the left is an actual ally to social justice.

we don't tell chelsea manning she should be sent back to jail cause she disagrees with us. we don't call kamala harris a slew of slurs and paint her as a thug. the center sure does that to PoC and minorities on the left tho
