Condiv posted:i would blame CIA fronts for vaccine deaths in the 3rd world before I blamed oprah's woowoo seller the cia released weaponized ticks and there's lead in the water supply and boomers played in mercury puddles in their childhoods, its all coming to a head in the anti-vaxx movement as a byproduct of all of that yet i think the capitalist that wants to brick up hospitals that have mutant babies is an x-men plot waiting to go south real bad if elected its either the torment:tides of numenera timeline with marianne, or the animatrix timeline with yang or the star trek timeline with bernie, or we get the back to the future timeline with trump

Lastgirl posted:she actually clarified her position so she's not anti-vax so its a mischaracterization but hey people want to compare her to the capitalist that wants to hermetically seal women inside the maternity wards of a now defunct hospital for failing to pop out fully intact babies out of their vaginas Most anti-vaxxers claim they're not anti-vax, though. Jenny McCarthy, for example, says she's not anti-vax, she's "pro-safe-vaccine schedule". Andrew Wakefield, the fraud who faked the original MMR-causes-autism study, claims that he's not anti-vax, he's just concerned about "the safest way in which to deliver these vaccines to children". RFK Jr. says that he's not anti-vax, he just wants to make sure we're using "safe vaccines with robust safety testing" and is worried that we're "forcing pharmaceutical products on unwilling American citizens without understanding the downside risks". And so on, and so forth. Sometimes they're "pro-informed consent". Sometimes they're "vaccine risk aware". They never come out and say they oppose vaccination - they just suggest and insinuate that our current vaccinations, schedules, and systems may not be completely safe and that parents should have more choice about when and how to confront the dangers of vaccines.

I still think the only thing to really urge on is Marianne making sure she offers criticism of US imperialism and institutionalized racism in the debates as everyone else is walking on eggshells since their spines are made out of jelly as they get some nice cushy kickbacks. It's a good foil to Bernie, so I wouldn't discredit Marianne on that basis because she does a lot of good work despite those comments. She literally supports reparations and is actually far better on her merits than some neoliberal emptysuit who licks big pharma boots since she actually does advocacy, re: Angel Food. Nobody's perfect in that regard so it's hypocritical especially when people cherrypick their problematic fav candidates merits too. Halloween Jack posted:Wait, who's ironically supporting Buttigieg? Are the Followers of Geno still around? this was way before buttigieg ran for president, as he was running for DNC chair lots of people were mocking his name and making fart sounds and put his face in a communist mural as a gag, and serious people took that at face value and lumped it all together as some kind of irony poisoning shtick. It's very intellectually stimulating~ Marianne is literally one of Callistege's sisters, as the original copy is actually the evil twin to them all and plots their demise, also loads of indescribable artifacts, crystals, and orbs are found in that universe upon the detritus of civilization and you engage in psychic combat against imaginary beings. It's uncanny. it's wild man~  sexpig by night posted:she literally is not opposed to vaccination though, she literally has nothing in her stuff about stopping or in any way bothering with them, she made a dumb comment off hand but there's nothing actually 'anti-vax' about her yup, she's not even in the movement afaik, just public comments Lastgirl fucked around with this message at 23:47 on Jul 18, 2019 |

yeah Biden was not expecting to get attacked last time, this time he's gonna try to attack back. It will come across as petty and mean, and completely destroy whatever is left of his cool old man persona.

I'm more curious if any of the B and C tier candidates are going to take a shot at Harris. I'm not expecting it as I think they're all angling for cabinet positions and VP slots? Maybe Booker still thinks he has a chance at this and will take an opportunistic stab?

The other positive is that there is a decent chance he draws her into "attacking" Obama again which doesn't play well even if Biden will be making an rear end of himself. The whole thing will hopefully sour people on both.

Honestly, if Warren continues to say that she is in agreement with Bernie on Medicare 4 All, she should be confronted on why it isn't a part of her platform. If she talks up college debt, she should be confronted on the limits to her plan. He won't.

Maybe it's all those years of bipartisan cooperation and mutual respect with the opposition, or maybe it's just the senility, but he doesn't seem to be able to land attacks with anywhere as much oomph as Harris can. Harris definitely getting a softball night. I am curious about what Castro and Booker will do. They're eager to distinguish themselves from the pack, but targeting Biden won't win them much media coverage since all the cameras will be focused on the Biden/Harris rematch.

I just hope that he can really deliver some punches come the end of July for the CNN debate which has an absurd candidate roulette selection going on. e: just saw the roulette and Bernie and Biden isn't on the stage and that's bullshit considering all the M4A attacking that Biden's doing like a enormous douchebag Lastgirl fucked around with this message at 03:27 on Jul 19, 2019 |
