JasonV posted:The way things are going, once the boomers are gone and we're left with millenials as the old politicians, politicians are going to be like Twitch streamers: Online live all the time, pumping up their fans to get likes and "oh my god! Thanks for the donation!", and the person with the most attention at the end of the term gets to be elected. It's already kind of getting like that. US Politics in 2019 already arguably boils down to two politicians that use twitter to "punch back" getting near constant coverage and focus.

Ms Adequate posted:Nah, prison gangs don't gently caress around, if you're not useful to them you're not getting their protection. Useful varies, but pasty middle class boys probably aren't rich enough for protection and sure as poo poo aren't hard enough to be an active useful gang member. White Nat prison gangs are probably more inclined towards ideology than most but even so, I doubt they're going to stick their necks out for these dipshit kids LARPing at what the 'real' members have been living for decades. how many prisons have you been in exactly?

Fritz Coldcockin posted:did anyone actually say this or are you just tilting at the usual windmills Nope they did, but I'm too lazy to go back and find the posts. Stuff like how Pelosi understands her strengths and weaknesses and while she is super good at some stuff is also super good at knowing what she shouldn't do so there's NOOO way she would deliver the response.

for new page. e: even prisions have a certain social order/norm you dont gently caress with, and some edgrlord going HH think that he has the 20/20 fallout stats to incite the start of the holy war is going to get beaten. Like remember The Oregon Birdhouse Standoff? Some nerd was live streaming that and talking about THEMEMES and was still an outcast even though he was one of the last people left when the feds finally did something.( lol gently caress tarp dude, I hope even chuds have forgetten that piece of poo poo)

my bony fealty posted:Good stuff now let's get rid of the centrist-fetishizing Dem pols (Warner, Kaine, Northram, etc) and replace them with actual leftists You're never going to see the Democratic delegation be as across-the-board left-wing as some other places, partially because Northern Virginia is literally where the people with actual lanyards live, there's a huge military/defense contractor lobby, and there's still a lot of cronyism on the local levels, but a leftward movement is already happening and has been happening for the last ten to twenty years, as mayors and state legislators start getting chances to get elected statewide, which opens up room for new blood below, who can then move up themselves, et cetera. You're going to see progressives win the governorship, lieutenant governorship, and attorney general's office before the Senators, though, since they're more frequently elected and often vacated for various reasons. I doubt Kaine and Warner ever get replaced until they retire, but I dream of Governor Danica Roem one day.

InsertPotPun posted:https://twitter.com/PrettyBadLefty/status/1082119046198366208 It's the problem with relying too hard on polling data to decide which policies you want to back as a party. We talk a lot in this thread about how M4A is super popular and that's great and true, but it's also kind of problematic as an argument in its favor because it implies that M4A would somehow be bad policy if it wasn't popular. It wouldn't be. It would still be good policy even if it had 1% support. Real progressives like AOC are getting a ton of attention because they actually advocate for things, which (shocking!) is how you convince people that your ideas are good. The Democratic party has been loving awful at this for the decade and a half that I've been heavily involved in politics. It's something that I see come up constantly at the national level and it's loving endemic at the ground level of local Democratic politics that I've personally been involved in.

1glitch0 posted:Can someone go back to last night's pages and find all the people who posted how Pelosi and Schumer would SURELY not give the response because they knew better so we can shame them? I can paraphrase the conversation including hits like "no one wants to see an old lady shake during a speech" and "part of being a leader is using different tools for different jobs" which is pretty silly considering Pelosi clearly understands her position as a constitutional equal and rebuttal to Donald Trump. I think no one really wants to hear Schumer in this case, but maybe instead of his usual disappointed father routine he'll continue on with his surprising strong rebukes to the wall.

CuddleCryptid posted:They aren't Obama white sauce posted:They have 0 charisma between the two of them.... This still doesn't answer who then. Obama is a great public speaker but I'm not sure it should be him. We should have someone currently serving respond. Tibalt posted:It would absolutely help someone's chances on the primary to be treated like the leader of the party, especially if you're trying to get donors and party officials to back you over an opponent who they might prefer but they don't think will win. I kind of feel like this whole thing is already a blatant attempt from Trump to grab media attention and spin. I'm not sure trying to leverage it into any sort of win for democrats is a good play. I think the best thing is to point out the democrats are ready and willing to open the government and Trump is holding everyone hostage. This isn't about who is the leader of the democrats, it's about a response to Trump taking the country hostage and demanding a platform to spew more bullshit.
