DrNutt posted:Motherfucker you have said some stupid poo poo in your time but did you just call conservatives/Nazis a protected class? Please tell me I misinterpreted your post in some fundamental way. The thread already went over this. In a legal sense this is very much true. In DC "Political affiliation" is a protected class according to the The DC Human Rights Act and the Bias-Related Crime Act of 1989. So in a sense yes Republicans are a protected class, you are not allowed to treat them differently on the basis of their political affiliation. Whether or not this is good law is a separate discussion. I don't know to what extent these protections would be expected to be extended to people who are literally members of the Nazi party.

citybeatnik posted:I still haven't bothered looking back at the Jacobin since that masturbatory article about a guy's happy visit to the Communist utopia that is North Korea and how he wanted to go back and smuggle in Tolstoy. Has it gotten any better? Yeahhhhh, not to defend Jacobin, but they definitely had a bumpy start. In general I enjoy reading Jacobin and think they do a good job keeping the ideas of socialism and anti-capitalism relevant to contemporary society and events. Obviously no magazine/journal is going to be perfect all the time but I'd still call Jacobin a net positive, especially when it comes to speaking to the early millennial crowd like me who realizes capitalism has hosed us all and is ready for a fundamental change.

Adar posted:think about it for two seconds: if Gillum lost in Florida, how was he going to win in Indiana or Missouri? I maintain that thinking solely in terms of progressive/centrist is limited. Going full Republican-lite is clearly a bad strategy even in CHUD country; going progressive narrows gaps but isn't necessarily a winner. The two candidates who beat the PVI of their states (Brown and Klobuchar) both walk an interesting line in terms of their balance on the issues that's neither strongly one or the other. Stop thinking of it as a line and more like a set of sliders.

My parents didn’t even hear about it until I told them and I’m not even in the country right now. Luckily I am too old to know anyone who goes to that place anymore.

Groovelord Neato posted:you forgot to mention they got the doctored footage from an unhinged twitter personality that works for alex jones. relevant: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lTEDunq3TfA Alex Jones has bragged repeatedly in the last year or so that he has significant access to the White House and talks to the president and his advisors. Now mind you Alex Jones claims a lot of wild poo poo so normally you take such a claim with a grain of salt; however the fact that Sarah Sanders re-uploaded the doctored video that originated on Paul Joseph Watson's Twitter- it rather very strongly suggests that there exists a communication channel for Alex Jones to send material directly to the White House.

To be fair, gaslighting has now become something much different than the actual meaning. It used to be when someone was intentionally loving with your head and then denying it to make you think you were crazy; now people use it more to mean when someone (usually a white person) is intentionally or unintentionally denying some facet of what their words project and how that could be oppressing others, while at the same time denying the very social presence of that oppression. generally now it applies to racial discussions. on the one hand i think it's an important thing to note that people could be doing this and discuss it, and to have a word for it, on the other as a mentally ill person i'm always kind of pissed when the language of mental illness is co-opted in this way.
