Adventure Pigeon posted:It's a small lesson, but next time avoid shining the light on Lena Dunham, Lady Gaga, and their ilk. I doubt you could find two people that better embody the stereotype of a wealthy coastal liberal that doesn't understand or give a poo poo about anyone outside their bubble. Get Willie Nelson on the phone.

I don't think anybody in the real world gives a poo poo about Lena Dunham, or even knows who she is, but people are definitely likely to get angry at the deluge of actual celebrities like Lady Gaga telling them who to vote for from fancy TV stages, dressed in expensive suits and covered in jewelry, especially these days. Clinton should have gone for some "common folk" celebrities, I wasn't really joking when I said get Willie Nelson on the phone. VVV Speak of the devil.

Also yes, I think for somebody convinced he has to choose between literally feeding a family / paying the rent, or allowing you to keep your insurance, the rational choice for them is to choose their own interest. And those people do exist, despite your delusions telling you otherwise.

Mirthless, have you for one second considered how you would help their issues, or are you simply content with sacrificing their priorities īn favor of yours, while them doing the same is a crime against humanity? They need to be punished for not giving you what you need, but you don't seem at all concerned about giving them what they need. And honestly lots of people have way more poo poo on their plate than whether they can get their Zoloft. steinrokkan has issued a correction as of 17:21 on Nov 10, 2016 |

By and large I assume many Trump supporters are very racist, some are not very racist, and some simply do what anybody would do, and indeed regard the needs of strangers as a lower priority than their needs, which is legitimate for somebody who is in debt ´, unemployed and stuck in the middle of nowhere with four hungry necks to feed. I've already said to gently caress anybody who can't be arsed to take a second to think about others if they have that luxury.

Hard to expect people to vote for an "alternative" that didn't even bother to ask for your vote and left you in the ditch.

Mirthless posted:I was always more on the socialist side than the neolib side, I was just too committed to the party to not support Hillary when she was clearly going to be the candidate. I've been a rabid Democrat for as long as I've been in politics. I'm not doing that poo poo anymore. I wouldn't say blame him, but given how he was the candidate who started his campaign by standing basically alone on a lawn, he probably should have started way earlier than he did. Though maybe then he would have just been forgotten?

goatse.cx posted:I think it's greatly overblown. The importance of identity politics in the positive sense is definitely overblown, but I think what people mean by it more often than not is the deflection of any criticism and dissent as racism and woman-hating, because liberals are obviously and objectively right on all issues, so there's no way anybody could have a reason to vote against them aside from trying to keep black people down.

So, what's the chance the long-term takeaway for Democrats will be "We won the popular vote, stay the course!" instead of "We lost, time to fix poo poo." Seems like plenty of people have been flocking towards this talking point of "Actually, Hillary did win", and it would be heartbreaking if they managed to capture the discourse.

WWII, the Liberal Regiment stationed at Stalingrad. Major Kowalski: "Lay down, we need to surprise the Krauts," Corporal Ivanov: "Comrade, we have local superiority, we could call in our howitzers and blast into the enemy rear." Major Kowalski: "You do not fully appreciate our position, comrade, the more we dilute and demobilize our forces, the more likely we are to convert Wehrmacht soldiers to join our side." Corporal Ivanoc: "Wow, they are bombarding our positions, should we call for reinforcements?" Major KowalsI: "No, that would be seen as too threatening by Nazi industrialists who will be tasked with the rebuilding of Stalingrad. We want the Nazi industrialists to win and rebuild our country, but to suppress the individual soldiers at the same time. That is why we are still fighting." Corporal Ivanov: "What the hell are you talking about" Major Kowalski: "The right wing allies of our movement are coming in, you can see by the sheen of their stylish uniforms that they are progressive, smart people." *machine gun sounds*

"Would it end racism?" became weaponized during the primaries as the ultimate tool to discredit any inconvenient argument. There's nothing wrong with asking that, but it shouldn't be used as a disingenuous rhetorical device to shut down your opponent and make them look like a bigot if they don't comply.
