mastershakeman posted:for no reason beyond checkboxes In fairness to her, it was super loving cool when she was keeping folks posted on some locked down political bullshit thing by smuggling a cellphone in via her prosthetic leg (republicans were taking everyone's communications devices to try and maintain secrecy, as I remember it). Seems like drat near anything else connected to her is an endless stream of disappointment. docbeard posted:Would Senator Keith Ellison change your mind sir and/or madam Absolutely, but just watch the DNC machine try to shoehorn in anyone to the right of Franken to stick it to those Bernie Bros. Our governor seems to be a neolib with his tongue deep inside the Police Union's sigmoid colon (LEAs want reefer to stay illegal, so illegal it shall remain, never loving mind we almost had full recreational legalisation over a decade ago, but for Tim Pawlenty, if I recall correctly), so I absolutely don't trust him to back someone who isn't even further to the right. A local (to the Twin Cities) news affiliate had a clip of Franken's victim saying she doesn't feel he needs to step down, just that she really wishes he'd apologised when last they met face-to-face rather than waiting until after she came forward with it. She seemed to be extremely charitable and forgiving about this whole incident, especially considering how he aggressively and persistently he attempted to tongue-gently caress her for "comedy." "Goddamn it, Franken, you loving retarded dumbshit moron!"- My family and I, collectively, as the story aired. I don't know that I'm comfortable with him stepping down in light of our current political environment and the comparatively (comparison is to every other rape/molestation scandal breaking this year) forgivable nature of his extremely juvenile and idiotic behavior, but Jesus loving Christ he needs to get his poo poo together. Now watch a whole lot of other harassed/skeeved-out broads come forward with infinitely worse charges.  I support him stepping down to free up a slot for someone more progressive, but we all know that absolutely will not happen (though, again, ready and willing to eat my words, I desperately want to be wrong about this).

mastershakeman posted:duckworth is poo poo and it's hilarious how popular she is for no reason beyond checkboxes People really like "their mental idea of who Duckworth is." It was the same case with people who liked Clinton. They have this mental image of the person in question as this cool progressive icon fighting for justice, etc etc (and the most effective politicians are the ones who are best capable of promoting this sort of fantasy, like Obama). To be fair, this isn't something limited to liberals; for example the way some leftists talk about Tulsi Gabbard.

I've noticed that when I try to bring up stuff like Bill Clinton's actions (or anything that involves Democratic politicians doing bad things, like the recently revealed Al Franken thing), my baby boomer aged dad doesn't exactly disagree, but his eyes just sort of glaze over and it's obvious that it just isn't the sort of thing he likes discussing - talking about the evil Republicans is his "comfort zone," and I think the same is the case for many liberals who gets off-put by the left criticizing Democrats. There's a particular type of evil that pushes his rage button, and it takes the former of older white men that remind him of the fundamentalist Christians he grew up with. Anything else he'll just sort of grudging acknowledge, before immediately taking the conversation back to Republicans.

A fair number of the cases reported in the media are crimes, which should be punishable by prison terms. None of that has happened. Bill Cosby, 40 years of rape, not in jail. Kevin Spacey, decades of assault, not in jail. Harvey Weinstein, decades of rape, maybe a case will emerge, maybe not.

I found a rare alliance among a few of the hillbots there who were all "are you crazy? he did something lovely and just bc it doesn't rise to the level of moore or weinstein it still was super-lovely."

sample dk sentiment: Putin is playing this country like a fiddle. He has a bunch of sociology/psychology wonks busy in a St. Petersburg skunkworks who have been steadily learning how to finely manipulate trusted media channels with weaponized data. And we can barely hear the tune above the din of our own outrage. The patterns are starting to make sense to me now when you see them in the light of manipulation. Its hard to admit that you’ve been manipulated. But that only makes the pattern self reinforcing. I fell for the Donna Brazile scheme. Hard enough to write a diary similar to this one. At least in tone. This Al Franken episode smacks of the same hand. it's like a case of mass schizophrenia among liberals

Its partially a defense mechanism i think. The franken poo poo (and takai) removes the most of the moral high ground of dems, around sexual misconduct, and will absolutely be used to equivocate. So better to deny reality, for the sake of sanity I don't think sanity really has much hope though Trump 2020 here we come
