I think that will help but then again this poo poo will always be with us in some way. Not to mention that not all millennials are defecting to the left, and the ones that don't are twice as energized and twice as extreme as that old lady.

Chilichimp posted:Not really. Even if Obama managed to get his guy on the court, Ginsburg and Kennedy are both probably gone before 2020 and both of those seats are turning hard right. Yeah we'd be better off, but instead of a never-ending sea of 5-4 right-wing victories, it'll be a never-ending sea of 6-3 right-wing victories. Until we add two seats or remove two seats from SCOTUS at least.

BarbarianElephant posted:Democrats need a solution to this or else the entire Supreme Court will be extreme right, and slavery will be legal by 2030. The solution is impeaching a justice or two and adding seats. Even if it doesn't go through we can convince the court to, I don't know, overturn voter suppression or stop them from repealing universal health care Its dirty politics but look at our situation anyways. Taking the Senate in 2018 (very slim but not zero) and praying nobody dies until then would work too.

Flip Yr Wig posted:Pack that motherfucker. Dead serious. A SCOTUS that is dominated by Republicans is not only an existential threat to American democracy (they'll enable every god-awful form of voter suppression imaginable), but to the planet itself (they'll veto ANY kind of radical carbon restrictions). Yeah -- Citizens United and voter suppression should be the number one litmus tests going forward. You stand for them -- you don't get confirmed. You stand for them in a ruling and you should get impeached and removed. It is a legit power that the legislature has and its a check on judicial power from diluting American democracy.

The GOP base is and has always been behind this rhetoric, its just with Trump it came out in the open. Trump is the most honest politician in the country in a way because he says exactly what they were all thinking.

Red Baron posted:What the poo poo. What possible defense or counter is there to people like this who will not accept anything except what they want to hear? If the truth doesn't matter, if we're post-fact, then how do we construct a damaging argument against these people? Build a base and a movement from the left and vote the fuckers out of office. Collect everyone that is alienated from that ideology, give them a purpose, pick off the Trump supporters that aren't as big into this rhetoric but wanted change and to tear down the establishment, and win elections so hard so that this rhetoric is marginalized.

My family has about 10 - 12 guns (a couple revolvers, a couple shotties, a couple pistols, an M1 Garand and hunting rifle that Gramps gave my Dad a long birthday ago, some other stuff I can't remember) and they are all inherited from my grandparents, not one of them bought by us. We haven't been to the range in ages. There is no way they aren't going to end up flooding out the market someday.

BarbarianElephant posted:"Inheriting a big heap of crappy old guns" is going to be the curse of the millenial generation, comparable to the current issue of "inheriting a lot of ugly antique furniture and heirloom tea sets" for Generation X. Nah my paranoid elderly relatives are ahead of the curve on that one, but its silver instead of gold. Silver! We also have (a? the?) holy sword of the masonic order in my grandma's attic as well. I've been badgering my folks for ages to rummage through that attic whenever we go visit over Christmas because there must be a lot of cool / crazy poo poo up there.

Bicyclops posted:A group of wealthy people have hijacked the trolley you are on, and they are trying to load a bomb onto the front of the trolley and drive it into the center of the city, killing millions. They are having trouble with the bomb - some of them feel like it is too explosive, while one says it should have been a nuclear bomb. One of the hijackers continuously expresses concern while he helps to connect the bomb wires and strap it to train. "This is troubling," he says, maverically, while pouring explosive powder into it. After awhile, he shakes his head. "Stop the train for a sec," he says. "My doctor just called and I have brain cancer." Is it ethical to yell "Good riddance, you coward!" as he leaves the train? I feel like in 10 / 20 years (or whenever the revolution comes, assuming we don't die in nuclear fire or something) this is going to be the new hot ethics question we teach kids with.
