Wealthy women are getting really pissed at how they spent years ingratiating themselves with the imperial machine only to now be told that it's 'evil' and 'unsustainable' and 'fundamentally built around inequality and white supremacy' when it was just about to be their turn to be on top and enjoy exploiting and oppressing everyone else.

The first wave of feminists believed they had the right to own a plantation full of slaves the same as any man and their rich white successors are convinced it will be theirs any day now.

Bernie takes donations from Walmart, then turns around and attacks them for political gain. I wouldn't be suprised to see his funding start to dry up during Q3.

Iron Twinkie posted:The first wave of feminists believed they had the right to own a plantation full of slaves the same as any man and their rich white successors are convinced it will be theirs any day now. In the US, at least, there was a close link between feminism and abolitionism, and a lot of the early American feminists were also abolitionists.

It seems like a conscious strategy though, publicly declaring yourself in favour of doing something when all the cameras are rolling and then quietly walking it back the next day on the assumption nobody who matters will call you out on it. It feels a lot more cynical than just feeling the need to please a given audience in the moment.

Majorian posted:https://twitter.com/davidsirota/status/1146520655480983552 This is inadvertently a great example of Sirota's hackery. "12 point gain since April, *now* 6 points behind Biden" sure makes it sound like Bernie was way behind Biden in April, but then he gained 12 points, and now he's just 6 behind! Let's just check what the April ABC poll was... ABC's April Poll posted:Biden - 17 Oh. So Bernie surged from 6 points behind Biden to.... 6 points behind Biden. This is the definition of a "nothing matters" poll, not some great win for Bernie. This isn't unique to Bernie, all campaigns do this kind of poll fuckery, but if we're going to do poo poo like dive into the crosstabs of every SC poll that shows Biden up, we ought to at least extend a basic skepticism to polls that are 'good' for Bernie as well.

Finally changed my voter affiliation two years ago after being registered R for waaaaaaay too long. Voted in Republican primaries before. Made sure I voted against the same-sex marriage ban when my state put it on the primary ballot in 2012. Voted against Trump in 2016 to no avail.

Let's just check what the April ABC poll was... Biden announced on April 26. It's a little disingenuous to cite an April poll and say "See? No change!" Also Sirota is Bernie's speechwriter; of course he's going to trumpet a poll that looks good for Bernie. Especially when the narrative among the mainstream media is "It's all over for Bernie!!!" when the polls don't really suggest this.

Typo posted:The debate was never about busing, the debate was about making Biden look old and senile Well, but here's the thing: she didn't have to comment on busing at all after the debate. Vocally pulling a 180 on it is a very, very weird thing to do when it's not something you're running on. Sort of an...error that's...unforced, if you will.
