Oh man, the "But WiFi might actually be bad, you guys" Stein defender escaped their dogpile by the bell.

Appreciate the thread title, I've been hoping that's what this clusterfuck would end on.

Hopefully they come back like measles did. Except without the suffering.

Fun fact: 114k died from measles in 2014 while it took ten years to kill 175k in Iraq (seriously just googled "how many died in Iraq" to get that number).

Jill Stein gives zero fucks about those measles deaths as a result of supporting antivaxx bullshit.

This is my point : would Jill stein, in hillarys shoes, have made the same choices to resulted in human suffering and loss of life? I don't think so... So why does being a goofy hippy within reasonable parameters make her crazy? It's all I ever hear about her and I really don't see how it's anything worth worrying about.

All she said is "we don't know if wifi is harmful and let's keep it away from our kids til we do" the science says we aren't for sure yet, even tho I really doubt it's dangerous. This is what's supposed to lead me to believe that she's a worse candidate than Hillary?

Did you get MMR as a child? You should ask your chiropractor to check for vaccine injury.

Holy poo poo hahahahaha. So being anti vax was fine til 2010? I think a lot of people owe that McCarthy lady an apology.

This would work if Jill Stein was anti vax, but you know she definitely isn't lol.

At least you play the part of pseudoscience woooloolooo believer really well: ignore all data and go with what you believe.

Na, Stein only said she didn't want to ignore her constituents that felt that way. She went on to say she is pro-vaccine and they are important in modern healthcare.


The correct action is to correct then ignore constituents that feel that way. Those constituents are actively harming society. They deserve no pity if they choose to ignore the mountains of evidence saying they're full of poo poo.

Besides, Stein probably has access to pubmed. That's all any science-respecting person needs to show vaccines are safe and effective.

Yeah, I agree with this line of thought. Sadly, it doesn't work in reality. The people that would've been off put by a Hillary/Warren ticket or Hillary/Latino or Booker ticket shouldn't be catered to either, and yet we got the white catholic so no one got scared of the diversity.

Hillary bad! She politician! She compromised on Catholic white dude!!!!!!! Waaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh

Ohhh whooping cough, or pertussis, is a great easily preventable disease. Like measles, the younger you are the worse you get. It's called whooping cough because children infected cough so much their diaphragm struggles to flex so they can breathe. Sort of like that last rep where you drop the barbell on your chest. Unlike doing the roll of shame to get the bar off your chest, the child just suffocates because their diaphragm literally cannot function due to coughing so much.

Or the fact that the election rests on a handful of swing states that keep polling back and forth between the candidates and the overall polling this election has been wildly erratic. The no tossup electoral map on RCP right now is 273-265 Clinton. If you think a one-state single digit EV margin = 99-100% chance of victory then I'm not sure what to say at all really. I live in a double-digit (R) state so I don't really have much of a say in this election; but the people who are predicting a roman triumph for Clinton are insane to me.

I'm quoting you because you were the last serious post not as an insult or anything.

Ok.

So Hillary's probably going to win but there's definitely no oppo bomb? Is that right?

What happened there? I was sure there was going to be a racial slur on tape or something from the Hillary camp, or failing that some fruit borne of all those people with archives of Trump on the Apprentice or Howard Stern or whatever, who were feverishly looking through them in hopes of paydirt after the Alicia Machado thing and PussyGate.

This isn't :derp: so much as it's just, I don't know - disappointed I guess, if you can be "disappointed" one of the candidates for President wasn't caught on tape with his finger in a twelve year-old or whatever.

Now that you mention it... yeah the gently caress? I want my oppo bomb.

Maybe Hillary was too busy watching the CUBS WIN IT ALL to give the nod.

I'm starting to feel like New Hampshire, Colorado, and Nevada are going to be the most supremely important states. All of them are polling really tight (basically within the margin of error) and all three kind of have uniquely weird electorates.

I think Clinton will win Penn, Virginia, Wisconsin and Trump will win Florida, North Carolina, Ohio, and Iowa. Puts them both at ~260. If either of them lose any of the states off of that list they are in deep poo poo. If she closes out any of Trump's must-win states early then I'm pretty confident you could call the rest of the election. Trump has had like one good poll in Penn but I don't think he can win it, Clinton has had some good polls in Florida and she might win it.

Would like to see some more polls on NH/CO/NV.

Clinton's winning NC my friend.
