Mellow Seas posted:Whether you’re willing to vote for Biden or not, this is all terribly tragic stuff. The political party that looked ready to turn a corner two months ago is doubling down on all of its worse instincts, and all some people can seem to muster is a “lmao”. It really makes it seem like some people are more interested in causing pain to people they hate, or being proved “right”, than trying to salvage anything out of this mess. I get that it’s probably a coping mechanism, and it’s really just limited to a few posters, but I don’t think it’s helping the quality of discourse. https://twitter.com/Papapishu/status/746803108949409793

I swear, the absolute glee people have about poo poo like that, or about Trump eventually winning and scorching the libs, is extremely grating. Its still April and almost half the primary states haven't even voted yet. Biden would be extremely easy to shitcan at this point and the fact that they are doubling down behind him as their guy is freaking HILARIOUS. Like Obama makes a few calls and Biden is done, it would be super easy to do. Its extremely likely they'd even get Amy or Pete at a brokered convention. Instead people would rather scold that we need to drag Joe to the finish line or else suffer Trump, and its not a message that's going to resonate.

Yeowch!!! My Balls!!! posted:think about it! two years were spent by liberals screaming about how a vote for Bernie Sanders was a vote for misogyny and hatred! and then, the -instant- the threat from the left was gone, they immediately threw everything they pretended to believe aside, and told all those suburban republican white women they claim will vote democrat ~aaaaany~ day now "yeah no you're gonna sit down, shut up, and vote for the rapist. anything else would mean you'd been brainwashed by russians." Thank God that Biden didn't tell the woman he raped that she'd have trouble winning an election against Trump in 2020. Then the Democrats would have nobody to run! It's hilariously loving stupid and 100% on-brand for these shitheads. Biden could end his run and the Democrats might actually win the white house in 2020. But he won't. This isn't a serious plagiarism scandal, it's just a little rape and that's presidential these days. gently caress Biden. gently caress the Democrats. They've done more to assure a Trump victory than Trump has.

Doctor Teeth posted:lol that gets selectively applied and you know it. where was this "different meaning" with kavanaugh? You are both right and wrong there. Wrong because I do recall it was there at least a little with kavanaugh but the standard means you get to dog whistle people with different standards and just say "Investigate this now". You're right because de facto this standard effectually gets treated like "I'm neutral but i'm very concerned about this" while still letting them buy into the apologia the standard was made to defuse .

I dunno if I think it’s funny exactly, because it’s so cynical and horrible, but a part of me is like “okay, yeah, good” the more they continue to show their dumb asses the better. I’m not so cynical as to think this won’t turn off more normie libs and not just pinko commie lefties like me.

I swear, the absolute glee people have about poo poo like that, or about Trump eventually winning and scorching the libs, is extremely grating. Being sad about it means that it was close enough that its failures hurt you, and at this point the party has pushed me so far away and made itself so explicitly opposed to my politics, my morals, my ethics and my understanding of how the world should work that I'm too distant. I can't sympathise with them anymore; they're like monsters, elementally opposed to me and what I believe in. I can't help but laugh about the fact that this whole charade is now loving backfiring in such a massive, public manner. And yes, I take a bit of sadistic glee from the fact that a rapist is eating the goddamn curb in public. Tragedy is one of my close friends getting a paper cut. Comedy is that child molester over there sliding on his own discarded banana peel into an open sewer drain. Let me emphasise, this is not a final situation. Biden could die, or quit, or be kicked out of the party, or be primaried out, or in any other way be gotten rid of. A new candidate with actual answers to the problems the world faces could be chosen, and the democrats could apologise for so publicly backing a rapist. The dems could still bring the left back into the fold. There are still possible ways forward. But the only truly good thing about this election, as it stands, is that at least one rapist is going to get stomped out of ever showing up in the news again.

I laugh at all this, because if I weren’t, I’d be crying all the time Outside of applying to be a delegate (which I’ve done) and hoping the convention is online still online, there’s sweet gently caress-all we can do. Just bombard the media with “hey, look at this!” about Tara’s story? The Biden camps argument is “it didn’t happen, and even if it did, it doesn’t matter”. The people that rightfully argued against Kavanaugh are saying Tara’s allegations or Russian-motivated bullshit. we’re all stuck in a situation where none of us want this, were at the point where we’d accept anyone as long as it’s not biden, but none of us have the power to change anything I’m a passenger on the Hindenburg, and I guess if I’m going down in a fireball, I’m going to laugh the entire time PenguinKnight fucked around with this message at 00:40 on Apr 30, 2020 |

The "Biden voters love rape" line of discussion here feels really... dude-ish. Here's the thing: the vast majority of all powerful men have had a "grab her by the pussy" moment where they used their power to assault or forcibly coerce a woman to engage with them sexually. That includes politicians, CEOs, journalists, celebrities, whatever. You know the phrase "no such thing as ethical consumption under capitalism"? Well I think most women have accepted that there is no such thing as ethically pure voting, particular in a country where any woman who runs (at any level) has to get past a tidal wave of misogyny. Like, for me to exist in the world in a way that never puts a dollar in the pocket of a sexual assaulter or never helps a rapist gain more power would pretty much require me to live in a tree in the woods and eat leaves. As a woman and a sexual assault victim (a long time ago, but I include it here for context), I cannot adequately explain how much that fact sucks, but also we kind of have to learn to live with it to be part of this society. Now, I'm not saying you have to vote for Biden -- I voted for Bernie at the state level and am still not sure what to do about November -- but not voting for Joe Biden is not some kind of magic bullet that absolves you from participating in a sexist society, and in turn voting for him is not the same as slapping an 'I <3 rape' sticker on your jacket. Women have had to plug their noses and vote for the gropey rear end in a top hat who is least likely to gently caress and gently caress over their daughters for .. well, ever since we got the right to vote.

Prominent Democratic women and women's groups aren't just plugging their noses, they're actively down-playing the allegations and undermining Reade's credibility. Now, I don't think every woman who supports Biden is pro rape. I imagine most of them (and most voters in general) are just ignorant of the facts.

This attitude is how nothing changes and was already warn out and tired when it was used to attack abolitionists for boycotting Southern Cotton. You obviously find it acceptable if your leaders rape, since you continue to accept them as leaders. I do not.

Grooglon posted:Biden voters love rape No-one has said this. We're not saying that Biden voters are positive about rape or that they support it, just that they accept it in their politicians. The same way that Trump voters aren't necessarily themselves pro-racism or anti-women, just that they accept it in their politicians. If they truly didn't, there wouldn't be a question.

If we want the problem of powerful men raping women and getting away with it, we can start by not voting for rapists. It's not going to immediately solve the problem but it's far preferable to holding my nose for a rapist that supports absolutely none of my values (including not raping women).

I don’t blame most people who feel like they have to plug their noses and vote for the better rapist (as long as they’re not trying to guilt trip me into doing the same). I’m way more pissed at the people who made them feel that way, not the least of which being the rapist himself Joseph Robinette Biden I do wish those people would not vote for him though and would stop buying into the Democrats self-serving, self-perpetuating myth of pragmatism misadventurous fucked around with this message at 01:20 on Apr 30, 2020 |
