Just once, I want to see a high ranking politician not shy away from DJ Assault.

Hmm. The Seattle proposal gave extra time to implement for small businesses, but this proposal is giving extra time to big businesses instead. I wonder why?

UV_Catastrophe posted:Before Snowden, I thought that allegations of massive, secret government surveillance programs were the realm of tin foil hat wearers. It was pretty much in the realm of tin foil hat wearers. Nobody could possibly believe the NSA was irradiating people with 1kW of radiofrequency energy at short range to activate a built-in chip along the wire of your monitor to see what you're doing.

Republicans are going to stonewall all nominations for the next four years, just because they can.

happyhippy posted:Can a potential VP take over when a potential candidate dies? If the presidential nominee dies before the election takes place, the decision falls to the relevant party. If Hillary dies soon, the DNC would have to get together again and decide, and it sounds like they aren't limited to just the VP or the primary runner up.

Quorum posted:Basically, the US is actually late to the Copyright Is Life + 70 Party, and the rest of Europe was already there way before we were. There's pretty much nothing about the US's IP laws that's weird or uniquely bad. Do you actually think it will stay life + 70?

I never played CAH because I have no friends, therefore I am the most tolerant and understanding of social issues.TheLoquid posted:Monopoly legitimizes exploitation of renters. Risk legitimizes imperialism. Chess legitimizes authoritarianism and the exploitation of the most vulnerable. Don't play any games. Better yet, play all of these so that you have a better understanding of why capitalism, imperialism, and exploitation of the vulnerable are all bad things. Unless you come away the winner, then the board game is actually a mirror into your deep personal psyche revealing your true rear end in a top hat nature.

I stopped listening to Metallica when Lars shat all over Napster, especially with that incredibly dumb skit at the 2000 MTV music awards. Megadeth is better anyway.

ImpAtom posted:So like, assuming the HILLARY CLINTON IS DYING OF MULTICANCER rumors are true, isn't like that a good thing for the Republicans? It means that Tim "Literally Ned Flanders" Kaine would be president instead of the Queen Alien. If she steps down or dies before the general, it'll be up to the DNC who takes her place. They could pick Tim if they wanted, but chances are in that case Bernie will ride again.

Leon Trotsky 2012 posted:- Likely to involve a combination of infrastructure spending, executive action on family leave, minimum wage increase, 5 days of guaranteed sick leave for any employee that works 30 hours a week or more, a federal subsidy for daycare / kindergarten, and a continuation of green energy tax credits and programs from the Obama-era. Only 5?

Does anyone remember that 2008 post-election piece about how deluded the republican party was on election day? It's like we're seeing that again, except every day.

Dr.Smasher posted:If I had to guess it's 1300 posts of race chat I was about to praise uspol for keeping under 1000 posts per day, too. At least it was just an rear end in a top hat and not an actual political bombshell.

Hillary Clinton loves to compromise. She is the compromiser in chief. Body cameras are the compromise position and BLM shall receive nothing more during her term.

Thaddius the Large posted:Off the top of my head, Something Awful -> Something Sensitive -> alt-right zeitgeist How did they become a part of the alt-right specifically? How do you go from being mad at being banned from SA, to supporting racist and sexist policy? Helldump could be considered a precursor to modern day doxxing, but I don't think anyone involved in helldump moved on to doxxing elsewhere. It was more a blueprint or how-to for the rest of the internet.

Rhesus Pieces posted:"This program may contain strong language and some adult situations. Viewer discretion is advised." The kinds of people most likely to raise a stink about trigger warnings were born in the 90's. They barely knew of the concept. Chances are they've had free reign on violent/smutty content since the turn of the century, thanks to the internet.

I suspect that incident at the university of missouri is helping to paint the current concept of safe spaces, as it was used impromptu to keep the media away.

If politics were determined solely by memes, Trump would be having the lead right now. Trump has locked up the anime, japan and pepe memes, but Hillary can still court the vaporwave and eurobeat memes.
