- Quetzadilla (6 hours and thread banned)
- Lib and let die (12 hours)
- mcmagic (6 hours and thread banned)
- Stinky Wizzleteats (6 hours)
- Mirello (12 hours) - because Lib and let die has a point about asking for mods with having like less than a page of posts in both this thread and the old one, but the thread is better when people reply to specific posts instead of posting mainly to criticize the overall vibe (edit: but feel free to come back afterward)
thread banning is a really bad idea all around. If someone comes in who sucks everyone can just tell them they suck who cares. We don't need to ban people from disagreeing

this topic is mystifying to me. aoc (or any other politician) isn't my friend and i'm not her therapist. believing her doesn't have any bearing on the functioning of the US political system and the succ within it, which is the ostensible subject of this thead.

These people know #metoo died the second liberals decided to smear Tara Reade right?

That is definitely coming back up the second they try to use a #metoo against another GOP politician.


Don't think there has even been a big #metoo thing since Tara Reade got the exact same treatment from liberals that conservatives gave to Dr. Ford over Kavanaugh.

I find the term side hustle to be extremely disturbing. It's a second job. People losing time with their children to try to not starve is not a loving hustle.

A great question. Everything that is being covered in the media that isn't "where's my money, joe?" is a distraction from the fact that Joe Biden owes YOU, the average American layabout, $2000.

So I got that 3M respirator gradenko mentioned, and this thing is pretty amazing; it actually keeps a full seal so no air comes in or out through anything other than the filter. It seems like this would actually pretty effectively protect you and presumably isn't as widely recommended just because it's not practical for everyone to buy and wear these things. It's a lot more comfortable for me though, just because hot air isn't being blown up into my eyes constantly like with cloth/surgical masks/K95s.

I''m really looking forward to the Adam Curtis documentary "Emotions" this month and I think it might be of particular relevance to this moment. A personal account of the events of the 6th broadcast online with video and audio to millions is useless on its own and sinister in aggregate (along with other moving pictures of politicians and pundits that focus individual experiences)

they all endorsed a hard right pro-war austerity agenda by campaigning for a rapist, them’s the brakes. they could have taken the side of working people and not made themselves out to be frauds, and given people a reason to take to the streets instead of them. now, they’re going to back a second patriot act and further build America’s turnkey tyranny to be casually passed off to the next fascist.

Her response does disqualify her from being a serious leftist leader. Stoicism is a virtue
This sums up my feelings on the matter

some guy on reddit posted:

Dilma Rousseff was literally tortured by the Brazilian junta when she was young(for being a Marxist guerrilla) and she nonetheless faced the 2016 right wing parliamentary coup by fascist lawmakers with calm defiance, steely resolve and dignity. Never complained or whimpered about herself, because it wasn’t just about her but the fate of Brazil’s democracy, the working class and the entire progressive camp in Latin America. That’s what leadership is
AOC is a ted Kennedy intern, she always was a member of the swamp, remember her as a politician that can be useful, not as a leader

We have to elect more Muslims to congress. It's the only way. Once there are enough Muslims, they will finally be able to pass those policies, but to get there Muslim children have to believe they can become president. This is my theory of change

this thread has shot down the idea of these particular threadbans twice so i dont think its grassroots, although i get the mods being peeved since whenever this little invasions happen im sure theres 100 reports trying to snag one of us perfidious succ zoners
