AlbieQuirky posted:It's actually people with cognitive disabilities who want people to stop saying "retarded". Which, gently caress, I don't want to hurt their feelings, guess that makes me a monster of political correctness. This forum has a love affair with that word and people act like babies when you call them out on how lovely that word is. I've watched one of my friends try to stay calm when people use that word because his brother has down syndrome. Not that you have to have a person with cognitive disabilities in your family or as a friend of a friend to know using the word is uncool.

H.P. Hovercraft posted:don't be a cretin I'm not going to push the subject after this because this is a day of celebration but I've seen you make this argument twice now where you oh-so-cleverly use other terms that have a history of abelism, like cretin, dumb, moron, etc. as some sort of counterargument but it's intellectually dishonest because those words have been separated from that context for a long while but retard has not. I never saw anybody calling special ed kids "cretin" at the playground as a kid and you know that it's a bullshit argument.

ArgumentatumE.C.T. posted:When people get mad about the word 'retarded' in a thread about a presidential election it's pretty funny. i find oldies like 'dweeb' and 'weiner' to be more apt than retarded these days, but its always a good one to keep in the pocket. more options for expression are always cool and good. There are all sorts of "options for expression" that we don't use in a thread about a presidential election. Mere pages ago, people were talking about the 'n-word' tape instead of using another "option for expression." Racism and ableism aren't cool, friendo. Especially when discussing politics, even in a FYAD-lite or whatevs.

RACHET posted:Voting machines across Detroit aren't working (ie they aren't switching votes, they aren't working alltogether) It's overcast but not raining. Whoever that is is the second republican I've seen post about Detroit's weather and I am perplexed at how they think it is going to keep people from voting. We drive through pockmarked streets with no streetlights in the snow. Rain ain't poo poo.

Speaking of: Bone told The Hollywood Reporter on Tuesday, he did cast a ballot. "I did vote, but I am not telling anyone for who," Bone told THR. "I put a lot of thought into it, and I feel good." Bone had endless interview requests after the debate; he even was a guest on Jimmy Kimmel Live! But through it all, he said the most important part was for people to make up their own minds and vote. "I made the best decision I could given the circumstances," he told THR on Tuesday. (That sounds like #boneiswithher to me.) Fidel Castronaut fucked around with this message at 19:29 on Nov 8, 2016 |

Not a Step posted:Calm your poo poo, Hillary is going to win. The Republicans decided to run a reality TV clown instead of anyone even remotely reasonable, which is good because even a half decent Republican candidate would have walked over Hillary. Can you imagine if Trump actually had *any* GOTV effort? That's the issue: he is so incredibly bad and is going to win Florida. That's really hosed up.

Zas posted:is it really just florida thats freaking everyone out? or is there more to it Florida is a big part of it. I really thought the polls were underestimating her and I'm pretty sure all the cocky people mocking folks thought the same. It's closer than it should be and while I still think she will win tonight, it worries me about midterms, 2020 and how likely it will be that she will be able to get anything done in the next four years.' People don't like her. That's just super clear right now.

Venom Snake posted:This has next to nothing to do with candidates and everything to do with white america being terrified of minorities You're being delusional. Obama would have won a third term with ease and he is a loving minority. This is about a psychotic fascist surge in our country and a candidate with high unfavorability running against that surge. She's going to pull out the win, God loving willing, but you all need to get your heads out of your asses and realize that we can't use the same old playbook anymore.

Venom Snake posted:Okay so whats the solution? Dems need to nominate fascist lite? Was that really what you thought was the alternative? The solution is to realize where pragmatic is. You talked all election long about how Bernie was way too leftist and that Clinton's policies are pragmatic and that her position is where the Americans feel comfortable but I think you all are doing what democrats always do and buying into the rhetoric on the right about leftists. America is actually a lot more comfortable with leftist policy than you guys give us credit for. So, you run moderates and you get a tepid response and then can't figure out why that is.

Chris James 2 posted:Trump needs both MI and WI, and I'm still sure Detroit comes through. WI's hosed tho For this entire election I have said that we blame this all on racist white voters but democrats take minorities for granted and I can tell you all that, in this 80% black city, folks are not impressed with Hillary. They don't feel like anybody cares about them, and they are right to feel that way. I hope to loving God that enough of us here voted for her (I did) but democrats need to get their poo poo together and stop thinking black folks will be there to save them.

May or may not break down in front of a student or two in public. This is the best job on earth but it's one of the worst jobs on earth this week. And this is Detroit. White kids are the minority of my students. Most are black or Muslim because Dearborn is the largest Muslim population in the country. I have students from Oman and Saudi Arabia who have to worry about being kicked out of the country. The American ones are going to be on watchlists worse than the ones they already are on because they fly to Qatar for a vacation and get questioned when they get back. My black students aren't going to have it much better. I could have knocked on some doors or made some calls. I loving failed them.

Yinlock posted:actually we mocked people who whined loving incessantly about how Hillary Bad despite having no evidence You have an incredible standard for evidence, my friend if we are still are in a world where there is no evidence of Hillary Bad. I seriously believe, foolish as it might be, that maybe the majority of Americans aren't good but that there is enough good out there that Trump could have been defeated. He was not an inevitable force. So, if enough people exist but they simply weren't motivated to show up by our candidate, we can argue if they are dumb or not but the fact remains that we didn't do enough to convince them. And that started by nominating somebody that they do not like. Why do they dislike her? For some lovely reasons and some legit reasons. But if Hillary is as pragmatic as she and her fans say she is, then we should embrace pragmatism and realize that she was not the right choice because the lovely reasons that people don't like her were not going to be overcome. We knew there were enough people out there to beat back fascism. We knew she was not well-liked. We ran her anyway.
