When was McCaine a mod? Because having a tankie pedophile run the forum was pretty funny.

Are you kidding me? He's one of the new party leaders.

So is Hilary 100% poison now or is she entrenched enough in the DNC to survive?

I'm betting that she'll try to run in 2020.

As funny as it would be to see the Democratic Party gently caress up the same way twice I really hope not.

What happens if you purge and marginalize the nazis. They will just go elsewhere and likely form their own echo chamber. I'm not sure how this is better for society.

Once they are all in one place, well, that's just what a cluster bomb is made for.

Lol

And this is how we justify atrocities.

Honestly as long as it's a private cluster bomb and the perpetrators get a chance to be high-fived by a jury of their peers I'm cool with this atrocity.

Obv if the government does it it's problematic on First Amendment grounds.

Survive what? She's probably just going to work at the Clinton Foundation and the Clinton Global Initiative. I know the narrative is that she ran for president because she's selfish and power mad and insane, but like.. she pretty much just wants to help people. So since she can't do that as president she'll go do that in the non-profit space like Bill's been doing since he was out of office.

You have a much rosier view of this particular career political operator than I do. But maybe you're right and she can pull a Jimmy Carter. It'd be nice.

Considering we're talking about a forum, no, we're not advocating killing anyone based on thoughtcrime.

To be fair I am definitely advocating that. Some people just need killin'.

The killers of course should face justice because rule of law is more important, if less emotionally satisfying, than Nazi death.

I'm not defending nazis. I'm defending that people of any ideology can post here so that that ideology can be judged on its merits. If a nazi posts here, he ought to be shamed and ridiculed vs just outright banned because shaming and ridiculing them is some form of outreach.

Yes but banning them makes the forum more pleasant than having a 20 page Holocaust denial derail in every thread as 500 people dogpile one Nazi troll.

This forum is entertainment. It is not a venue for solving racism.

a position compatible with the Democratic Party.

The list of positions compatible with the Democratic Party has run the gamut from "gently caress black people" to "gently caress white people" in the last 50 years. I'm sure it will adapt to survive.

occupy was flawed from the start because without any kind of hierarchy or fixed agenda it was just a contest to see who could be most passionate

Occupy was homeless roleplay for college kids with trust funds.

I know a guy who lost both his legs trying to escape Cuba.

And then he tried again, by swimming, without legs.

So I'm betting it is not a great place.

The Chinese government has a national parliamentary body with like 3000 representatives, so it's not impossible to do

It's a lot easier to do in a dictatorship when the parliament doesn't matter.

That's, what, ten cruise missiles? I think we can afford it.

About 1,200 Block IV TLAMs.

Which I would argue are far more useful than Congress.

Wonder what a Ryder truck full would do.

Less impressive than you'd think. That kind of chemistry doesn't scale all that well. There's a reason people who blow stuff up for a living don't use anything like Tannerite.

Also is this the part of the thread where we try to earn Lowtax a visit from the ATF?

I support a private drone air force made entirely of gold.

Too long have we suffered under the unblinking eye of fiat drones.
