Seriously please explain how a dude posting about stalking and taking photos of complete loving strangers is A-OK but being weirded the gently caress out about that behavior crosses a line.

He's awash in some of the most progressive, informed, and intelligent 'forums' on the internet (though somethingawful rivals it, if not dwarfs). The Internet Research Agency didn't get much penetration in that town, because I was calling out many of their moves as they made them, and I was out on the streets taking portraits of every one of them, posting them on facebook, and tagging them in - so everyone in the city /actually got to know/ everyone in the city (ensuring the sockpuppets really stand out).

Help with navigation, child care, diesel jugging, dumpster diving are all useful aboard; good with building, cooking, digging, chopping wood and hauling water is good when we're camped. Bum stuff talents can be useful, but this is a kid-friendly (two aboard), no-shwill bus.

All of my friends seem to be coming out for Warren. That's basically everyone who was a Clinton fan 2 years ago. Thankfully nobody has been a fan of Biden for the last 2-3 months but yeah, not seeing much Sanders support. I hope he wins but the power of the media is against him and I think the best I can hope for now is a Warren candidacy. At least Harris and Pete B have not risen too much in the polls.

Setting aside the calabanibal and assuming you're talking about actual biden voters

1) Half of Americans have a sub-100 IQ, and

2) "In the midterm elections, according to CNN exit polls, 56 percent of voters were over age 50, and about a quarter (26 percent) were 65 or over. By comparison, voters under age 30 accounted for just 13 percent — and it was a good year for youth turnout." https://www.nytimes.com/2018/12/12/opinion/democrats-republicans-senior-voters-aarp-.html

Biden voters all have brain melt too, just like trump voters.

That's only because they grade it on a curve.

If judged objectively, average IQ scores went way up during the 20th century.

Dumpster diving is fine. Do you think people go in search of rotting leftovers to chow down on? I’ve eaten “expired” dumpster food more than once, and it was delicious.

Tinder said she saw Klobuchar for the first time this month at the Lee County Democrats’ picnic.

“She really had me hyped up. She used the line, ‘All foam no beer,’ and I was like, yes! Relating, speaking in ways that we can relate as citizens.”

It is such a superficial complaint compared to the flaws with the rest of the candidates, so it isn't shocking few find it a compelling one.

Like imagine if someone was complaining about the voice or speaking style of Harris or Warren as their main complaint?

Yeah. I'm a man, but a man with an anxiety disorder coming from a pair of households with a lot of angry yelling, who completely lost all tolerance for it after not being around it a while in college.
Yelling is one of the fastest ways to get me close to an anxiety attack, but Bernie never registered as that to me, even without knowing the whole thing about Jewish people yelling. It feels like a completely different thing to me.

Like, I can't really blame some women for reacting strongly to it, but usually when I read about how women feel when men yell it's a little embarrassing because I feel exactly the same way despite being a man, and this is a big exception for some reason.

A very weak criticism that 4 people immediately jumped on.

No poo poo it's a weak criticism, but it still causes people to not like him. It also causes some people to like him more.

My point, before people dicided that every criticism must be fought, was that different people react different ways to a dude yelling.

I know people who dislike Bernie because he's an old white dude too. These people exist and vote in primaries.

It's interesting, if you look back at older footage Bernie doesn't shout at all. Did he deliberately cultivate his current loud style? A strategy to intimidate women? Or to appear more Jewish and proactively head off accusations of anti-semitism for his hatred of Israel?
