Hello thread. You might not know me, I'm Al Borland Corp, a limited liability poster. I am from the now defunct Trump thread. I look forward to sharing with you my thoughts, opinions, and insights! I had a fun time voting in Alabama last night. Every candidate I voted for lost, and every ballot initiative I voted for went the opposite way! Oh man what a silly state. The Al is short for Alabama, not everyone knows that.

Oh Snapple! posted:Hello friend, our state is terrible. The only wins I got on my ballot were local ones, which is expected since I live in the black belt. I live in a college town with Democratic tendencies but all the district lines have been drawn to ensure every non-black belt municipality on the 85 corridor is a part of it to keep it all red.

So for the first time I had somebody call me an NPC online. What's a good method, for if this happens in person, to not beat the poo poo out of such a person? Because I'm afraid I might do that and I'd rather not do that.

Koalas Massacre posted:NPC is a dehumanizing alt right meme. So I'd be suspect of whoever is buying them tbh I didn't buy this one but I am gonna run with it so I bought the name. But I would prefer one in which it was at least wearing a flannel shirt and the title was something like TOOL MAN BAD John Wick of Dogs fucked around with this message at 16:52 on Nov 7, 2018 |

Hieronymous Alloy posted:I really think you should switch back. Have you seen Clerks 2? You're trying to "reclaim" "NPC." It won't work, and if a bunch of folks get vaguely-interchangeable NPC avatars and keep them, it'll end up furthering right-wing messaging. Yeah I'm trying to be a good sport but you're right. I'll go with what I was originally going to do this month

ratbert90 posted:So, can we repeal the goddamned Permanent Apportionment Act of 1929 and fix the house of representatives to better reflect the actual population of each state? It's a good idea. In college I knew a lot of libertarian and right wingers who wanted its repeal, due to their feeling of "losing representation" each census. The primary argument was "But then you'd have thousands of congress men, where would they meet?" And the answer was usually " Who gives a gently caress about the logistics of it"

This is a thing, thanks to Beto https://twitter.com/yesica/status/1060218537321660417?s=19 This could have real long term positive consequences. For those that don't know, the Texas board of education, being one of the biggest customers of textbooks, wields incredible power over what leaving materials students all across the country end up with. And whether they learn things like, the real reason the South seceded was actually slavery instead of "states rights"

friendbot2000 posted:I don't think this is true. Doug Jones won through the votes of black men and women. We can do that again. Texas showed us that EVERY state can be competitive. Democrats just need a candidate with charisma that will bring people to the polls. I know that things look bleak because...Alabama, but every state can be won if you run an actual person and not an empty suit. Doug Jones does have kind of an electricity and charisma, if you live here at least, just from being a giant slayer, and the guy who prosecuted the Birmingham bombings. His support for CHIP really helped get him through and I think if he is vocal about a couple of red meat working class issues like fight for fifteen and guaranteed family leave he has a shot. And he held firm on important votes like Kavanaugh even when he had political cover. John Wick of Dogs fucked around with this message at 16:12 on Nov 8, 2018 |
