zoux posted:It makes more sense to me for an athlete to get paid millions than a hedge fund manager. People are like "they get paid millions to play a game" like they roll out of bed, gently caress around on X-box for 8 hours and then go to the arena and play a game. While these guys are active, they spend so many hours a week training, working out, controlling what they eat and drink and that's in addition to managing all the business and finance poo poo that comes with being a millionaire. How many hours a week do you think an NBA player spends on poo poo to maintain and improve their skills and craft? 90+? They work hard and are under insane pressure. So if we say that someone's salary should be commensurate with the actual amount of sweat and stress someone puts out, who does more than pro athletes? its also the same people who jerk off about the free market despite the very obvious provable fact that these guys have some of the most unique skillsets in the entire world, if they were actually paid fairly they would get so much more money. had a libertarian dumbass try to let me know that, actually, professional athletes salaries are Inflated and not artificially capped despite.....you know....the salary cap in 2/3 major american sports. these people will say and think anything as long as they get to be racist

yeah, wrong https://poll.qu.edu/national/release-detail?ReleaseID=2487 quote:The anti-Twitter sentiment remains high as voters say 69 - 26 percent that Trump should stop tweeting such an ~expert~ that everyone is indeed tired of him winning at twitter

Zogo posted:That's true but that's a different issue. I never said most Americans like his tweets. Only ~10% of Ds want him to tweet according to that poll. When it comes to election day I don't believe there will be many voters going into the booth saying "I was going to vote for Trump but he sent too many tweets." you keep painting a picture of some incredibly savvy news manipulator winning the media battle when its demonstrably false. its not a different issue. you said getting a tweet war with trump means he wins. it very, very, very clearly does not mean that since hes been in a tweet war with the entire nation this whole time and is losing support on every single front. i dont get how you can even think the most unpopular modern politician by far is some untouchable media demigod. it boggles the mind. you said this: Zogo posted:Yea, it's funny when these athletes take dumps on politicians but I don't think people realize that this kind of stuff solidifies bases and creates groundswells of support. All these people having their Twitter skirmishes/battles against mastermind Trump are playing his game and they're probably going to lose (if they want some 2020 D president). Some of Trump's polling numbers are going up in recent weeks. Uh oh. Zogo posted:
and yet quote:25 percent approve of his handling of race relations and his recent pardon of former Arizona sheriff Joe Arpaio https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/first-read/nbc-wsj-poll-public-likes-trump-s-bipartisan-move-little-n803176 (the one i linked earlier has him at a downward trend on race relations as well and is more recent) i cant predict elections and im not gonna argue about why exactly we are in this situation despite the fact that everyone hates cheetoh hitler but the only actual metrics we have for what you are talking about all say the polar opposite of what you are. he is not spinning things in his favor, hes steadily losing support on every single issue he touches. it puts the lie to this idea that politically active athletes are somehow poisoning the well. i guess his "groundswell of support" is that 25% of people

tanglewood1420 posted:"Don't worry about opinion polling in response to protests, it doesn't matter" i may only have 1/1000th of a percent support, but since turnout is below 50% im 50 times More Likely To Win.

Libertine posted:The turnout is so low in US Elections that if a candidate could guarantee 25% of the population vote for them he or she would probably win all 50 states. Neither candidate in last election even got close to 25%. People conflate wide polls of approval with election results which are usually head-to-head contests between two extremely unpopular people. the only person conflating them is you btw. and very badly.

everytime i watch channing frye play i am astounded that he is somehow easily the tallest and longest player on the court but completely incapable of grabbing a rebound or bothering anyones shot, even the tiniest person on the court can just put it right over him its baffling. are you made of flesh channing, do you exist on this plane or do you phase out of this reality momentarily when the ball comes off the rim or when someone throws a jump shot up near you. i see your hands right in their face youd think it would do something but it doesnt.
