western discourse about nanjing is almost entirely out of ignorance, not irreverence

we are happy enough to, in ignorance, consume without question anime that endorses the Japanese narrative that they did nothing wrong and the Chinese were guilty of everything

We're horrified that they have Hitler selfie stations, imagine how the Chinese feel about seeing western media giving glowing reviews to the numerous Japanese Military WW2 Anime We Did Nothing Wrong animes

Also Moore, as Epic High Five says, is a total wildcard.

He's not going to swallow leadership's line and will not play ball.

And probably does not give a rat's rear end about committee appointments or fundraising so how do you corral him?

blackmailing him about his pedophilia, presumably

except he just proved he doesn't care about that so uh

McConnell's situation right now is like, imagine you're a hiring manager

2 months ago you interviewed 2 people and one said he'd do everythign you said and the other said he would key your car and gently caress your wife

management forced you to advance the 2nd one

now you're forced by management to support the 2nd one over an unknown who may actually be in agreement more with you, but if you supported him your career would end

basically he's probably praying for death

wouldn't say they're conflicted even, really. They treat the Rape of Nanking about as gently as conservatives by and large have treated the fact that their boy Roy is a lovely old pedo.

that is to say they believe there's nothing wrong with what happened.

there's literally no other way this ends than moore getting elected to the Senate.

i was predicting a dem pickup in december, but in light of all of the allegations, he will definitely win the seat. trust me I'm from Alabama.

Jones is more progressive in his policies than Manchin, but yeah I'm kind of inclined to agree

As someone in a red state with a Dem Senator and seeing how they act and the positions they take, I don't actually think Doug Jones' positions on a livable wage and civil rights will translate to anything meaningful, as unfair as it may be given his history

maybe I'm just a bit of a cynic
