TrixRabbi posted:Another piece of it is that liberal trends, both culturally and politically, are driven from the media and personalities coming out of the major cities (mostly New York), meaning you have a group of influencers who have likely grown up upper or upper-middle class and urban, and who have been trained to look down on poor rural communities as hicks through decades of classism, media stereotypes, and insider Democrat groupthink. They themselves are a dangerously small group with immense power to alter the narrative, which is how you end up with insanity like Hamilton being the most important cultural moment of the year (that almost nobody has been able to actually see) and Lena Dunham being thought of as a valuable surrogate with a wide fanbase -- poo poo that could only come from the most insulated people with no sense for the outside world at all. i really didnt read any of this order because i dont think its on the dollar menu but ya man, right on

Main Paineframe posted:Yeah, why couldn't Obama have made a simple change that solely benefited the poor, like massively expanding Medicaid eligibility? Or infrastructure spending as economic stimulus? The joke, of course, is that he did attempt both those things, among many other policies that would have helped poor whites, but both were blocked by both state and national Republicans in the name of their ideological opposition to government programs that help poor people. lol D&D what are you doing look, the title says why do the liberals hate poor people now and the answer is simple they always did bing bing bong

Main Paineframe posted:little did they know that when LBJ declared a War on Poverty, what he actually meant was a war on poor people your semantics is noted but we're talking about right now you really do not need to preface the entire history because what has relevance today holds no candle to LBJ's social security expansion a billion years ago. You can't keep a scoreboard of a previous match, its disingenuous as gently caress to fall back on lmebo. None of this poo poo matters now when LBJ's legacy has its time in the sun and is being poo poo on~ stop flapping your gums and make your point already and read the drat title the key word is now

Jeb! Repetition posted:Anyway, liberals who hate the poor do so because they accepted the 2000s era culture war framing where it was poor rural vs rich urban. no its because they're secret republicans

Pener Kropoopkin posted:Dem efforts are all compromised half-measures though. Like when Clinton wanted to expand Medicare - to 50 year olds. if the democrats are willing compromise and consort with the republicans who are morally opposed because in their brokebrain that makes them the moral high horse then that must mean liberals are secret republicans?

wizard on a water slide posted:^^^ same its just too bad that there isn't something substantial to really work out on top of "preserving" things as it is now so if poor people, who are busy dying don't see the better options, they're left with "what else do you have to lose" akin republican at least i voted to make sure that people weren't actively and maliciously getting hosed instead of just systematically being hosed, big difference
