it bugs me that 'liberal' is just used to mean 'democrat i don't like' now, i have to say

plenty of indispensable critiques of the obama admin & the clinton camp came from explicitly liberal sources like the New York Review of Books, the New Republic, and The American Prospect

I’ve recently just started using liberal as a democrat who is a piece of poo poo, with regressive views. tell-tale signs including supporting Hillary, defending obama, and posting in the d&d trump thread.

yea and i don't mean to single you out, it's become widespread both in c-spam and on twitter, i just don't care for it since it's very detached from how the word is widely understood outside of those contexts

like most bad poo poo from democrats is just flat out conservative and plenty of activists who would call themselves liberals object to those things

True. But honestly I don't get too hung-up on the specific taxonomy of people. I care much more about the ideas themselves, and the outcome of those ideas then what the hypothetical person supporting those ideas is called.

So whether you call UHC a liberal, progressive, or leftist position is uninteresting to me. The point is healthcare should be free.

Joy Ann Reid fears the buttgieg.

quote:

BuzzFeed also reported on Wednesday that Reid backed out of a scheduled panel discussion event in New York organized by CAFE, former U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara's media venture.

Reid was set to moderate a panel with several political participants, including Pete Buttigieg (D), the openly gay mayor of South Bend, Ind.

Admittedly, that’s pretty terrible stuff and not right at any time. Sadly, growing up means looking back at some really bad decisions and wishing it didn’t happen. I think Joy Reid is on that boat right now. Now for the trolls who don’t really give a poo poo about the hurtful comments and are just using this as a way to silence a powerful, left-leaning, black woman I have something to say.... In the spirit of president trump, “I DONT GIVE A FUUUCK ABOUT YOU” I like Joy Reid and I accept her past apology and her claims of being hacked. If it turns out that she lied about being hacked, I accept her future explanation and apology.

it’s worth remembering the republicans did try to gently caress trump up, they were just bad at it. like stacking the debate audiences in favor of jeb! and rubio. they also couldn’t pick one establishment candidate because there were too many.

I’m still not totally convinced this isn’t an actual high-tech lynching (sorry Clarence). Yes, as everyone who understands way more about the internet has said, its not impossible, but it is highly implausible that she was hacked in the way she claims, but at the same time, I find it equally implausible that she would be dumb enough to pull the “I was hacked” card if she knew she was lying. I watch her show fairly regularly, and I have seen her mock people for using that excuse on multiple occasions. She just seems too media savvy not to know what a bad move it would be if it weren’t actually true.

Also, to the extent that the hacking is implausible, or that it would take a concerted effort to pull it off, if you’ve ever spent any time on 4chan, those are exactly the sort of people that have the time and (at least some of them) the skills to do this. Joy Reid is the sort of figure that has angered both the right and the Bernie Bro/Glenn Greenwald wing of the left off, which just happen to account for a significant number of the 4chan types. Also, I mean she’s a black woman with a platform, so if anyone had the perfect combination of positions and identity to spur them into action, it would be Joy. I could easily see them get pissed when the first posts leaked and Joy got off scot free and concoct a plan and invest the effort to pull this off.
