Jazerus posted:yeah real talk is that as much as a trump presidency is inconceivable, on a domestic policy perspective it's worlds better than a ted cruz presidency. trump's going into the presidency almost the way a third party candidate would, ready to use both parties for his own advantage, which is probably going to be 70% bad 30% good but ted cruz would have been 100% bad, so... There won't be a difference between a Trump and Cruz presidency.

Fidel Castronaut posted:I don't know, man. It really did seem like somebody like zoux would post some screenshot from Reddit of a crazy Berner, a circlejerk of "lol, Berners sure are crazy!" would start, some people would push back about how representative redditors are and then the people pushing back would get hit with 6'ers for "starting a flamewar" or whatever, despite it being the Abuela cirlcejerk initiating things. I mean, ultimately, getting 6'ers for disagreeing with Tatum and Deteriorata isn't a big deal but whew the moderation was kind of bad for a while there. Last Girl is cool and Baloogan (who knew?) is actually pretty good but, lol, zoux was an IK for a while, 6'ing anybody who didn't love Abuela. Zoux was an exception and I agree 100% that he was bad. That's why he was banned and cast out, forever. But otherwise we are honestly working towards making C-SPAM a good place to post for everyone and the wide range of political positions helps us keep this fair.

logikv9 posted:The poll data failed. All meaningful metrics of data failed. The only metric that saw this coming was this ear-to-the-ground highly anecdotal evidence that floated around, and that is functionally indistinguishable from your standard echochamber-repeat. Metrics are only useful if you're measuring the right things, and if those things are more stable as individual data points than the combined influence of any uncontrolled factors. The data to predict this result was out there, it just wasn't viewed as significant. Evangelicals deciding en masse that "moral character" was no longer important in a candidate was internalized by the left as "lol, hypocrites" instead of "oh gently caress a rapist is more palatable than a Mormon." Aggressive police action against minorities and the responses of minority communities to them left a majority of whites annoyed at the inconvenience rather than repulsed. The rallying cry of the GOP (pro and anti Trump) was curiously cohesive - "vote your conscience." And rather than trying to figure out exactly what that meant - and the questions to illustrate an accurate answer WERE being asked, just not connected - the DNC made an ultimately fatal assumption.

Had to comfort my wife. Had to comfort people having panic attacks. Nearly punched a higher rank NCO because 'well, Hillary committed something kinda like treason.' My only solace is the ability to tell people 'I told you so' while I ride out the storm. And hopefully make some loving progress in the coming years. Just...gently caress.

Gary Johnson is a former Republican governor, and only one of five former Republican presidential candidates voted for Trump. Other than Stein, who got like three votes, shouldn't the "neither" options break against Trump?

Honestly a Trump presidency is probably preferable to any other GOP candidate. Almost all of the things that a progressive fears would have come true under any one of them but at least with Trump there is an intra-party power struggle that will make enacting policy more difficult. Plus I'd argue that from a policy standpoint Trump is not an ideologue which is something you can't say about any other GOP candidate. You might not like the things he believes in, but he isn't a party shill--he's actually a true believer. That means that he'll be unwilling to compromise on those things, which is basically the enemy of actually getting them through. Granted this is glass-half-full talk.

we've failed the people we should care most about because we ceased being willing to fight for them, to even fight against them for their own sake we've let their minds be destroyed and their livelihoods be taken away from them they voted for the rich on the assumption that they were voting to eat the rich and we let it loving happen
