I work in the old folks home in Wilmington delaware and I am here to inform you that Joe Biden has to come back every weekend or else he gets confused and lost from sundowning if he doesn't get back in his malt shop decorated rumpus room. I take no pleasure in reporting this HIPAA violation.

Who the gently caress are you to gatekeep who is a leftist and who isn't?

The issue is no one you can vote for believes in climate change, and even if there is someone by a miracle who comes along who does, and is in a position to win, the entire government is set up to make sure they'll be powerless if they get into office.

Patently false statement, and again this is more "Both sides are bad" poo poo, despite the fact that we've frequently shown that there is very much a belief in Climate Change in the Democrats, if they didn't believe in it they wouldn't have bothered undoing Trump's deregulation push and de-enforcement of environmental enforcement.

Sorry they don't believe in it as much as you do, since apparently you set the standard.

Voting mattered, that they were able to throw out those votes was because of issues with the votes themselves that let the SCOTUS justify tossing them, if there had been no problems with the hanging chads etc then the SCOTUS would not have had the opportunity because the state would have been called appropriately and Bush would have conceded.

underrated part of the laughable xhosa girl post is that all of that poo poo is just racist boer/rhodesian propaganda justifying why its okay to colonize southern africa and extirpate the people who live there. like the three brutal "tribes" he brings up are either in what is now south africa or zimbabwe. plus, uh, hottentot is really not the preferred terminology, and was considered extremely racist even in 2005. dylann roof rear end post. hail benghazi.

This is anecdotal, of course, but a while back I asked one of the authors of the scientific side of the IPCC report about the contention that there wasn't any real difference between Republicans and Democrats in terms of climate. The verbatim response was "The people who say that are crazy." So apparently the climate scientists (or at least the one I was talking to) disagree with you there.

Yeah I talked to the guy who was involved in some of the mechanical side of the car manual and he said it’s supposed to make that noise.

I don't know the actual history behind this but would I be close in guessing that if there was wide scale agricultural destruction that killed Xhosa people en masse it was done by the colonial invaders rather than the Xhosa themselves at the behest of a craaazy prophetess and the former just invented the story

why are they so mad at people who say they don't think voting doesn't matter? what's wrong, are they insecure in their belief that the system works that they need to yell at people who imply otherwise?

Someone else mentioned the "terror at losing" (this is also part of why they get mad if you criticize Democrats - they view it as people threatening a precarious situation where the "fascists" might take over), but I think the more important element is that they have a certain idea in their head of what a "non-voting leftist" is like and they loving despise that person. They think that anyone who doesn't support mainstream political institutions is a stupid child and causing the poor and minorities (who they believe are on their side and support them) to suffer.

Yep, and because they see liberal democracy as the only viable way to organize society (or at least the obviously best way) they see any attempts to point out the failures of this system as saying that nothing matters and we should all just lay down and die.

So if we can only do liberal democracy and we are only allowed 2 parties and one of those are as obviously horrifically evil as the Republicans then that means that we MUST support the Democrats. That's why they are always framed as flawed but well meaning. Getting them to understand that the Democrats are not only a part of the same brutal corrupt system, but a necessary part of it, would mean a total collapse of their worldview.

They need something they can grow onto so that they don't see abandoning the Democratic party as abandoning everything they ever believed in, and that's where the immortal science comes in, but it seems that getting them to read a book is quite the sticking point.
