Nearly as overlooked as Joe Mauer

what about the 15% who don't like your dog. Don't they deserve to come to work and not have to deal with a dog that bites, but badly? Pretty amazing statement overall.

It was real bizarre hearing NPR suck Biden's dick this morning about the progressive stimulus action of a temporary single-digit percent reduction in the out of pocket maximums for those people who do not qualify for subsidized ACA plans.

We are so far from where we need to be

Honestly that's pretty mask-off for CAP right now when there's attention focused on them b/c of Neera. Do they have any cred left with left-leaning libs to burn, or nah?

If its the mics being faked, then why is the one mic clipping under Biden's arm. It seems like it would trivial to just superimpose the mics over the video of Biden. On the other hand, if the original video had no Biden, but had the mics, then adding Biden introduces the complicated problem of superimposing Biden over the background, but not over the mics in the foreground. In this scenario, its easier to see how you might get a clipping error.

Really though, it doesn't matter whether its the mics being superimposed on Biden, Biden being edited into a video containing the mics, or a completely CGI Biden. The point is that they had so little confidence in Biden's physical and mental capacity that they did not allow Biden to walk from the white house, give two simple canned answers, and then walk to the chopper on live camera.

The old rapist is dying.

they probably would have, because if they were indeed sex workers at asian massage parlors the likelihood of them being trafficked is very high

Ask society why they can't focus on more than one thing at once I've given up trying to figure it out at this point

Also this probably wasn't motivated by racism unless you're torturing the definition pretty badly

These women were targeted because they were sex workers, not because they were asian. The conversation should be about sex workers.

what i personally would like to see, since defund the police is never ever goign to happen so we're stuck with them, is for the policing resources to go towards catching the actual traffickers rather than focusing on the johns and the sex workers. but im sure enough of the right palms are greased at a high enough level that it rarely happens.

What I mean is, why do you feel like the discussion about anti-asian racism precludes a discussion about sex work and human trafficking, both discussions can be had at the same time. It seems like you resent the discussion of anti-asian racism for stealing the spotlight from other issues which you feel are more important.

But Mirthless is correct that capitalist media won't permit a televised conversation that includes both? I might be wrong but I don't think Mirthless actually approves of the capital-imposed dilemma here...

It can be true that both 1. having a conversation about both sex worker rights and anti-asian racism at the same time is possible, good, and revolutionary and 2. capital will fight to keep that exact thing from adequately occurring, and that is worth mocking (which Mirthless just did) and also fighting (which Mirthless might already do!) :shrug:

There's a lot of anti-asian racism within the sex work industry. The thing that complicates matters is when Asians are the ones sex trafficking asians, but that's not so hard I saw Leathal Weapon 4 just arrest the slaver asians and release anyone found in a shipping container.
