My girlfriend and I both voted this morning in Mecklenburg county, NC. We both sailed through the process as there was nearly no one there when we went (and I'm proud of her, I pushed her really hard to get her NC license and register to vote after she moved here from KY last June.) I didn't know who this lady was but I voted for someone named "Tigress" for the Soil and Water Conservation Division. Google tells me I voted for this lady. Cool. Anyway it felt good but I have little hope of any real change in NC for awhile. I also voted against all the CHUDdy constitutional amendments but I expect them to pass because as usual they claim to do the exact opposite of what they actually will. Still I felt so good about it that when I encountered a mid-thirties guy about to leave work after handing me my breakfast I encouraged him to go vote and he politely but firmly said voting will never help him or people like him. I only said that not voting definitely won't help. That put a damper on my good mood, but the real damper will come tomorrow when I see the results. #NothingMatters

I've been getting a lot of texts asking me if I'm voting. Got one today from "Emma" from Americans for Prosperity asking if indeed I planned to vote. I'm guessing you can take a stab at how that went down.

I think it's gonna backfire like gently caress on olds / Republicans that they call everything they don't like full blown socialism because it seems like a lot of people my age are going "well, maybe socialism is fine then" like when the DARE cops told you weed would kill you

Also, my polling place was pretty drat packed when I was there and one of the poll volunteers (think older librarian lady type) was asked "Has it been busy today?" and she was like "Oh my gosh! Yes! Not a breath since we opened the doors! It's WONDERFUL!" and I smiled to myself, and thanked the workers for their service today which really seemed to catch them off guard, but made them happy. e: also a lot of people my age and younger, so, well, fingers crossed. Moridin920 posted:I think it's gonna backfire like gently caress on olds / Republicans that they call everything they don't like full blown socialism because it seems like a lot of people my age are going "well, maybe socialism is fine then" I agree, and I've started to think this more because lately Rush/Hannity have literally been outright screaming the word Socialism at everything that moves and it's become absolutely hollow to anyone who wouldn't have already recoiled in horror at it to begin with. It's definitely been an uptick in usage, and pretty recently. Big Beef City fucked around with this message at 19:42 on Nov 6, 2018 |

It's still hilarious to me that all the previous presidents say it's the hardest job in the world, clearly visibly age during their terms, and this goon is just tweeting on the shitter, watching TV all day and then in the evening circle jerks his red hat buddies in the country to call it a day - lmao

Fabulousity posted:I remember two variants on this but can't confirm either one because my Google Fu is apparently weak this morning: Happened more recently too in TN: https://www.washingtonpost.com/busi...m=.d324c6391f86 This one was a real lol if you want to give it a read but the TLDR is: Volkswagon built a plant in TN, fully supported their employees there unionizing and there wouldn't be any union fees. The auto workers rejected unionizing. The [insert doing stupid thing that hurts yourself and only yourself] to own the libs meme really feels too easy at this point. e: added a quote of what I was addressing because the thread is moving fast af today.

They called brutal capitalist warlord Obama a godless hippie communist for so long that we can run actual stoner communists and they aren't any more or less terrifying. Throw in that commies love the second amendment and republicans have now inadvertently created a perfect incubator for a communist revolution.

Also, most countries that have some sort of socialism are actually happier and healthier than Americans. Of course, good luck convincing chuds that America isn't inherently better than everywhere just because.

vaginite posted:Happened more recently too in TN: Too emphasize a point: Volkswagen was literally begging the employees to unionize. Because unlike retarded American companies Volkswagen understands that your employees being in a union takes 99% of the HR burden off the company. The union handles all the messy details of company/employee interaction so the whole company runs smoother and everyone walks away in a win/win. Tennessee republicans are so retarded they literally went to their employer and demanded lower pay and worse benefits and no power to negotiate.

As someone living in a social democracy it's pretty funny seeing the Democrats called commies for policies that wouldn't be out of place in the Nixon administration.

And then you take their abuse as the idiotic policies fail and the wealth gap gets wider. And then you watch half your base not vote and the other half vote for the other side and you wonder how you can be more inclusive to the neo-nazis.

If 2012 Obama ran against 1984 Reagan the American people would have run screaming into the arms of Reagan, because Obama's massive military industrial complex and his totalitarian brutality with mass incarcerations and militarization of police departments would have scared the living poo poo out of people. Obama literally makes Reagan look like a hippie, and now we have liberals frantically trying to push the Overton window into full fascism and republicans tipping their hand by calling the guy who built Trump's police state and deportation machine a commie.

Colorado mails you a ballot like a month early so there are no lines at the polling places. I voted in person and the lines were so short that most of the staff was sitting there doing nothing. It took less than five minutes.
