I don't envy the campaign manager in 2020 trying to figure out whether to blanket America in ads, throw it all into rallies, or both.

I'm concerned that Trump is post-reality and his voters will will themselves into a placebo-type effect where they believe things are getting better while nothing changes / gets worse

Bickering about the primary endlessly while the world burns around us is silly. If you have a point like "She should have done X" or "Bernie appeals to Y" that's welcome discussion. What I think Lastgirl wants to avoid is "I told you so" spam which gets us nowhere.

I don't believe the Constitutional Convention scare-hype (although if it's useful in making people turn out for local elections, well...)

republicans are god awful but there are some of them that will realize the unilaterally passing some constitutional amendment goes beyond party loyalty and is totally and 100% :stare:

y'all lusting for blood (which is understandable) but it's silly because all your supposed enemies literally bent the knee without you having to do anything. barring an act of god or keith ellison having a secret human trafficking operation in his basement, the progressives are going to own the DNC from the top down

even Howard Dean's argument for being DNC chair over Keith Ellison isn't a battle over ideology, it's literally just "it's a full time job and you are a current sitting house rep" which isn't wrong

Mods, can we just start probating identity politics chat? I feel like it's a necessity because we keep looping right the gently caress back to it and god knows D&D has plenty of circular firing squads for this over their threads.

"We should reform education."

"Why should we when people are getting gunned down in the street?"

"We should probably look to shifting off the industrial model so people can find some financial stability and be put to work instead of drinking away in their dilapidated rural homes and misdirecting their rage and worsening the cascading effects of all the messes we're in."

"LMAO "ECONOMIC ANXIETY!" LMAO. Btw people are being gunned down in the streets."

"We should probably focus on some outreach programs that gives minorities gainful vocational employment, towards infrastructure, healthcare, and robotics in the long run."

"Pfft as that will ever exist with institutional racism."

"Yeah which is why we should prioritize the issues and list them out to erode the symptoms that causes such institutions because it's not going away overnight."

Or we could just go with the c-spam posting route of

"bernie is good and cool. death is certain, inshallah." :bernget:

"how many sex cakes do you think could feed a family of 4?"

I prefer that.

my take: no

The notion that helping the working class somehow means selling out minorities is retarded, and is being pushed by people desperately trying to find ANY reason not to have their incomes redistributed (see, the white liberals posting at work in this thread)
