The Glumslinger posted:Poor Gen Xers, no one loved them enough to actually give them a name Do you think it’s a coincidence that everything got super X-treme in the 90s? That JasonX was a movie marketed to gen-X’ers? That DegenerationX was the hot wrestling storyline? Hell, I remember hearing somebody say that gen-X was gen-X because “they love skateboarding and listen to nine inch nails.” It started out as a non-name but quickly became something else. Captain Invictus posted:excellent, champing at the bit to go to war in mexico, a great idea As the child of Latin American immigrants this is actually like one of the least bad things he’s suggested. poo poo’s incredibly violent and terrifying in Central America and Mexico and it’s ENTIRELY our fault. It’s basically the ISIS problem except that it’s been building since the 70s. And the whole time we’ve basically gone “welp, sorry! Not our problem! But also please do something about all of these refugees that keep showing up in our country! We don’t really care what, just take care of it. K thx bye!” For all of the media around the drug war and border war poo poo like Sicario, we’ve focused the overwhelming bulk of our attention domestically, using drugs and cartels as an excuse to oppress black and brown people at home. Now obviously Trump and his circle of fascists are the last people you’d want running any kind of military or humanitarian campaign anywhere. But if I were the democrat president of the US, I’d strongly consider sending robust humanitarian and, yes, even military aid to places like Nicaragua or Honduras. It would be exponentially more valuable and useful than anything we’ve done in the Middle East.

Instead of just running guns and money to central American death squads, the United States can cut out the middleman and put leftists in mass graves themselves. What do you think happens to that military mission of mercy once another weak corporatist gets voted out for Trump II?

CAPS LOCK BROKEN posted:Or maybe because O'Keefe is already on the margins of society that he is allowed to publish that to begin with? You're reacting to it exactly the way someone who wants this story buried is reacting to it. If your stance is the James O'Keefe is a brilliant media manipulator rather than an insane rich kid who is getting undeserved attention, you may wish to reconsider your stance

FizFashizzle posted:oh man tonight might be great  This race tipping the right way would be one of my personal touchstones for A Good Night, surpassed only by losing none of our new good Dems and taking the Senate. Incidentally, anyone who wants to TV/IV results of tonight's races, consider the State and Local thread as well as this one, it's full of knowledgeable locals and lots of nervous posting energy.

Quoting someone credible in a way that serves your interests isn't about the person speaking. It's about the person repeating that very specific message in a very specific way for their own political purposes. I don't really expect anything from someone speaking off the cuff.

rkajdi posted:Yup. We live in a hell earth were a 10 point win would not be enough if rural states continue to support Trump in his dismantling of the government. I'd like to hope a recession would hurt him, but those just tend to polarize toward people pushing minorities out to make room for the white working class. Dems won the House by 8.56% nationally last year. They won Wisconsin 53.18% to 45.61% They won Pennsylvania 55.03% to 44.75% They won Michigan 52.33% to 44.65% They won Arizona 50.37% to 48.66% That's enough for 289 electoral votes

Terebus posted:We're on the internet where we can reach just as large an audience as O'Keefe and other chuds. Everyone can keep bringing up that Epstein didn't kill himself while at yhe same time calling out chuds for being disingenous. If we want something to change we have to keep this story fresh because it won't realistically be tackled until after this election cycle. That is if Trump doesn't get reelected. They know they're disingenuous. They don't care about facts or reality, you will not reach them. Go ahead and try it some time. I agree that people should still be hammering on this story forever because it's atrocious but you're never ever going to get the chuds to admit that a single Republican ever was involved.

The last election he ran on taking away people’s healthcare and when he did we got the “I didn’t think he would take away my healthcare”, so I can see how he’s just made things worse and worse for himself over his term.

DarkHorse posted:The strikes were because Bevin ratfucked them out of pensions and he called them thugs for getting upset Kentucky teacher here. Voted for Beshear today. Typically leading up to elections, my left leaning friends are pretty quiet on social media but for this one it has been VERY different. I dunno if he’ll win as I sometimes fall prey to Nothing Matters but I sure as gently caress hope so. I attended one of the strikes in Frankfort with my coworkers, some of whom lean VERY far to the right. They all hate Bevin. On our opening day this year, our superintendent announced that we will comply with our new state law saying all schools must post “In God We Trust” prominently in each school. This was met with great applause. Red meat for the base and it struck me as not a good sign for this election. Also, due to those strikes in order for a teacher to use a sick day now we have to sign an affidavit and get it notarized. Clear retaliation by our Junior Trump Governor.
