 idpol is bad because it supposes there is more than one war, when in fact there is only one war

also when did it become "idpol" because I'm pretty sure the first time I saw that was two days ago and now I see it everywhere

I'm sorry your candidate failed to win the Democratic primaries.
I know I was arguing in USPOL a year ago that you can support Hillary all you want, but making GBS threads on Bernie supporters is a dumb idea since you eventually will want them to vote for Hillary. The responses I usually got were some variation on "all of Bernie's supporters don't vote anyway, literally only Hillary supporters matter".

Welp.

Those demographics are also darkly amusing; despite the constant insistence that time and history is on the side of the neoliberals, the vast majority of new democrats are on the side of Social AND Fiscal leftism.
This is true, but I find it amusing that if you capitalize two words in this sentence it changes the meaning completely and becomes a laughably wrong statement.
