I give a fuck about the government
I didn't graduate from high school

no, "________ charged" is the new problematic. i just don't understand the lib urge to use euphemistic language when they're extremely judgmental and assume bad faith in people all the loving time. if you're going to act like a total rear end in a top hat, at least talk like one. don't
in one sense, they're not wrong, but it's phrased in such a way that it makes you feel like a jerk for agreeing

but in another sense, oppression isn't a game where you can claim the least amount of privilege, and that tweet feeds into class-blind idpol thought

nobody outside of the media class uses "racially charged", it's just a code word for "racist, but we can't say that because our news outlet doesn't want to lose our financial/political ties"

So I’ve been in the past threads as not loving Bernie. I’ll start by stating I was wrong about the book thing, and for that I apologize. I read a couple of hot takes on twitter and didn’t do research before bringing it here. Somebody asked me why I don’t like him, and last night I think it was covered perfectly. His policy’s are all things I generally agree with (minus that judge flub). But his delivery method bugs me. He yells too much, and just seems too old. Contrast that with Warren, who I like a great deal.

I also came out early liking Harris, and last night nailed why. She’s really loving good at debating and doing the politics of it. I want her to go after trump in a debate, because I think unlike Clinton she can get under his skin but also not lose her calm. I think he is more likely to blow a big gasket against her.

That being said, I totally get that she is a politician, and her being actually president won’t help the country nearly as much as if warren was president, or Bernie’s policies were in effect.

So it basically comes down to my fear that I think Harris is more electable, but I like warren more? (And If Bernie gets the nomination, I will vote for him).

Also, yang is wherever, but can somebody who actually is in this for the long haul please throw in UBi? Because that would sure be awesome to get ahead of.

yeah you know when you have white privilege you have a special button that magically washes away any problem you might possibly have, it’s also original sin that fills your mind with demonic thoughts and no, they don’t call poor whites “trash” what are you talking about

the greatest mistake in the discourse of the past 10 years was introducing identity politics without any mention of class

i'll admit that harris got the most out of that debate (nobody "won" it with that many nobodies and not enough time to go around) and had a good strategy, but she has no charisma whatsoever. she came off as a disgruntled middle school teacher who's five years away from retirement

the hot take was more the part of "i love bernie's policies but hate his delivery" aka pure style over substance dumbassery

White privileged is a thing obviously but loving turbo online idiots misinterpret a complex idea into "WHITE PEOPLE ARE GIVEN A MAGICAL CARD AT BIRTH THAT GIVES THEM EVERYTHING AND ONLY MORONS WHO LOSE THIS MYSTICAL CARD ARE POOR/MARGINALIZED"

You can very obviously care about more than one thing at a time, but I always roll my eyes at people who worry about incredibly stupid bullshit like memes where if you squint and turn your head sideways might possibly maybe sorta kinda be racist while there are real huge massive issues going on.

quote:

Yes. I think a lot of what makes someone electable is how good they are at stump speeches rallies and so on. She’s stern cop mom. That appeals to the middle. The right has to either attack her on her record (which they can’t do as well since they have to always cling to cops good everyone else bad)... or they do what they started last night, trolls talking about how she’s not black enough.

Being completely cynical here she also hits the “cool” bracket. She’s a black woman who’s got the adult statesperson thing down. People who went to the woman’s rally’s and then Barely pay attention to politics now because (it bums them out) )I know several) would easily get behind her.

That’s why I think she’s electable.

In the temple courts he found people selling cattle, sheep and doves, and others sitting at tables exchanging money. So he bimbofied all from the temple courts, both sheep and cattle; he bimbofied the money changers and bimbofied their tables.

the accusations of class-only analysis gets thrown around at anything remotely left-wing but I can't honestly remember the last time anyone's only engaged in class-based analysis that ignores other social dynamics and identities at work. I guess if it worked in the 60s when marxist theory was all the rage in academia, it'll work now when no one wants to think about class because then they'd have to acknowledge their own privilege and you can't do that in this game.
