twodot posted:First of all "I know three people who think Sanders talks too loud" isn't dissent. Second, why would minor dissent ever be a good thing? Like if a poster came in here and said "I think Sanders' shirt is three shades too light" we would tell them to shut the gently caress up, because that is not a thing that warrants any discussion. If you want to criticize Sanders it should be on real substantive issues that matter and not minute aesthetics. Surely this thread, as the pinnacle of rationality, has never commented on minute asthetics of non-Bernie candidates and would always devolve into a 5 page shitfit if such things were brought up.

Meridian posted:In a shocking turn of events, cops are goddamn terrible. you don't know the half of it. apparently, the sole witness in that case was practically bribed to point the finger at trulove the cops from the beginning had him as their primary suspect, but the only person close to a witness said the street was too dark to be certain they pushed and goaded her in the usual police way: quote:Police suggested that Trulove was the prime suspect just hours after Kuka’s murder on July 23, 2007. That night, Lualemaga told police that she “didn’t really get a good look at the shooter,” but after she failed to identify Trulove in an interview with officers, one asked, “Are you sure it wasn’t Jamal Trulove?” Lualemaga still wasn’t sure. “No, I don’t know,” she said. but then they went further and said that they could move Lualemaga out of the two bedroom apartment she lived with 6 other people in if she testified.... quote:In May 2009, shortly before a key hearing in Trulove’s case where Lualemaga would identify him as the shooter, the San Francisco DA claimed it was necessary to move her from public housing into witness protection. A Jan. 12, 2010 memo filed as an exhibit in Trulove’s civil rights lawsuit shows that this arrangement was approved by Larry J. Wallace, a longtime Harris aide who followed her to the California Department of Justice when she became attorney general in 2010, and later to her Sacramento field office when she became a United States senator in 2017. In December 2018, Wallace resigned from Harris’s staff after the Sacramento Bee reported on a $400,000 settlement between Wallace and a woman who accused him of sex discrimination and retaliation at the state DOJ. the prosecution, during his trial, pretended that his family was gonna assassinate the witness for testifying against him, and that her being moved via the witness protection program was proof of how brave and truthful she was as opposed to a corrupt as gently caress dealing to railroad this guy into jail you'll notice how one of kamala's hatchetmen did the dirty work as per usual. she seems smart enough to at least keep from directly authorizing these shady deals. yronic heroism posted:The funny thing is you think it’s controversial that the thread reacts to Sanders optics posts different than others. is nonsense refusing to vote for biden because he looks terminal? cause I'm p sure there's myriad other reasons not to vote for biden that people reach for the whole kerfluffle in the thread was in response to claims that people would not vote for bernie because he's "too loud".

I don't think I need to source jaxyon when you're whining about how people treated him. press the back button and you'll see the tail-end of the argument if you absolutely need a refresher though

I will still give you a month for horny posting, horny is prohibited. really though no one cares which candidate you would gently caress and it just invites gross conversations about candidates, especially female ones. You can have these thoughts and desires but don’t post about it.

T Bowl posted:There are way more moderates who can swing either way than almost all political nerds are willing or aware enough to admit so I think the lesson of the last decade or so is that not being tied to a single political party doesn't necessarily mean you're a moderate. It just means your primary issue positions are ones that neither party consistently gives a gently caress about, and the major parties' consistent issues are ones you don't necessarily give a gently caress about, so you swing back and forth based on individual candidates' specific issue positions. These people who aren't satisfied by the major party platforms are often where outsider candidates like Perot or Paul draw their support, but they can also end up voting for major-party candidates in a way that confuses the heck out of pundits that pretend those issue positions and priorities don't exist. For example, Obama-Trump voters.

This is a pretty monster hot take considering that the solutions to both issues have a lot of overlap It's not like "protecting voting machines from Russian" meddling" is a completely distinct issue from "protecting voting machines from Republican meddling." And even issues like campaign finance get a lot less distinct when Russian oligarchs are dump-trucking money into Mitch McConnell's district etc. Phi230 posted:quick everyone, the russians are doing something that than any american company, PR firm, candidate, official party apparatus, or even state actors like Israel or Saudi Arabia are doing!

America has shed the blood of millions to interfere in international politics, overthrown democratic governments, funded terrorism to oppose leftist governments, etc..., and now every single American company/PR firm does exactly what you accuse Russia of doing. Every election, in a much wider scope and larger scale. Saudi Arabia and Israel both alone have interfered more than Russia. We interfered in Russian elections to prop up Yeltsin. So despite these numerous bigger problems why do you laser focus on the least severe form of interference? Why would anyone care that Russians are doing online astroturf campaigns when astroturfing is the not only the norm, but much worse and more invasive forms of election influence are in practice by the united states today? Russians are not going to switch votes or stuff ballot boxes. The Republicans already do that (and deny people the right to vote).
