anime was right posted:the absolute best part of the jungle primary is there's gonna be like 5 different rich idiots backing their favorite corporate dem so they're all gonna cancel each other out. none of them are gonna all get behind one person. obama coalition, clinton coalition, moderate republicans that hate trumps decorum. i mean they're all the same group, but there's different actors in them. lol this is exactly how the GOP establishment ended up with Trump against their will. Would be hilarious if the same exact thing gets Sanders in.

Concern trolling centrists whining about "division" and how it weakens the party and using the Tea Party as an example like the GOP didn't then go on to make America almost a single party state sans presidency in the years that followed the Tea Party's rise.

The only thing I can think of with Salazar is it's because she's BDS. The transatlantic pearl-clutching centrist media's already got themselves banging on all cylinders pushing the "Corbyn is a worse version of Hitler" story so it's probably easy to fire off some poo poo at her right now.

As a socialist socialist the only hope I have for a Sanders administration is rolling back the worst executive things Trump has done. I have zero faith he will end imperialist wars, cut back defense spending, get medicare for all through, etc. etc. Just putting it out there first so I don't sound like some fanboy when I say that I will be absolutely shocked if Bernie doesn't sweep the primary with the greatest of ease. What's left of democratic supporters that still buy into neoliberal horseshit (an ideology with no constituency outside of a few million bourgeoisie) will be divided 30 ways, and for everyone else are at least slightly discredited by association and support for the Hillary disaster. Bernie is the only one left that has a shred of credibility and a built in following and infrastructure ready to hit the ground running. I do hope he wins.

It basically means 100% of 2020 candidates will endorse M4A now. Which also means that when we do get "M4A," it will be means-tested "access" worthless garbage that's anything but actual single-payer without co-pays. Then we have to begin this whole loving charade all over again when Avenatti-care ends up sucking poo poo and not letting people go to the doctor when they're sick. How can anybody be a democrat?

comedyblissoption posted:just a reminder that we would have abject poverty and misery even with star trek technology under capitalist ideology Capitalism can't exist with Star Trek technology, though. Replicators make all resources infinite, make factories obsolete, which makes value an obsolete concept, which makes wage labor and markets obsolete. It's kind of a cop-out so they can portray a utopia that didn't have to be created through violent revolution and classicide because CBS wouldn't produce something that was overtly Leninist.

It's probably going to be Obamacare but with the public option this time, or end up like my Arizona AHCCCS: free at the point of use, but ran by United Healthcare for no reason other than to give some corporation a way to suck money out of it without providing any value. In that case we might get what we want at the user level but it will cost 9 trillion dollars a year and end up being abolished because it can't be reconciled with the 20 trillion dollar military budget.

alsothere posted:replicators weren't a thing until TNG though but post-TOS is the vast majority of the franchise now. Limiting it to the TOS lore (which has been completely retconed at this point, just try to decide whether money does or doesn't exist in Kirk's time) is arbitrary. the Bell riots added some class spice to the backstory but it didn't change. According to First Contact (which came out after the "Past Tense" two-parter) it was the Vulcans that basically came down and ended all strife on Earth with a wave of their hand, or at least inspired humanity to just agree to be nice to each other all the sudden.

I feel like even saying the word "deficits" is a partial submission to the right's framing of issues that should be purely about morality. It needs to be eradicated as a thing that exists as a political tool because it's not real.

docbeard posted:The Federation is a wealthy society and they've done a pretty good job of spreading the wealth around, but clearly they are not in any sense post-scarcity. I don't think the transport credits have to do with material scarcity but a limited amount of physical public space where you can put transporters and not have it look like an eyesore. I haven't memorized the technical manuals and all that because I'm not a total nerd, but transporters probably require enough on-site bulky equipment and power crap that makes it impractical to install one in every person's home. So it's a way of making sure the lines aren't 10 minutes long because people feel like taking a dump on another continent just for the fun of it.
