Al Borland Corpse posted: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! 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.

Lightning Knight posted:I think Crowley would've tried for the ratfuck if he hadn't been called out early and very publicly for trying to stay on the ballot sneakily, and it is naive to think there wasn't something fishy going on there. He should've dropped out gracefully when he lost the primary and that he didn't is a douchey thing. Yeah, it's disingenuous to go "and oh look, he never did anything" when this was the entire point of calling him out on it.

eke out posted:maybe you can point us towards some of the many campaign events that Crowley obviously would've had as the nominee that was seriously trying to steal the election on the WFP ticket for these past two months Again, this is incredibly dumb because the entire point of calling him out immediately & publicly was to nip that in the bud.

Farchanter posted:Why is the Congressional Black Caucus in particular upset about watering down superdelegates? Is it because they are themselves superdelegates, or is there a civil rights issue I'm missing? They liked having the kingmaking influence of a large, unified block. Which, given the context of, well, America and the black experience within it, is understandable. But it's still undemocratic as gently caress and attempts to spin in at disenfranchisement didn't spur much sympathy.

It's completely fair to say Joe Biden's stance is "gently caress them kids" considering he basically put the phrase into legislation with the student loan crap.

CascadeBeta posted:I'm faulting you because you're making fun of people who were heaving a sigh of relief that they didn't elect their version of Trump over a year ago. Very different from them doing that today. This is the weirdest attempt at gaslighting. The tweets being made fun of are right there. They are not "sighs of relief". They're legitimate gushing over an oligarch toadie that 3/4 of his own country hates because he is an oligarch toadie making it easier for fascism to take hold

Ytlaya posted:More generally speaking, I find "purity test" rhetoric to be extremely morally repugnant. It's basically letting the mask slip and revealing that the person in question doesn't actually care about the issues in question (because it's super obvious that anyone who would describe other basic historical social justice goals as "being obsessed with purity" is not one of the good guys). There's a default amount of suffering that just has to happen in the world, and unfortunately for all those brown kids the rational calculus is that they have to get mulched and I thank god every day there's no one on my continent with the ability to rub my nose in it and tell me it's hosed up that isn't also really easy to ignore.

Your Boy Fancy posted:It’s not germane to the point. Black voters didn’t vote for Bernie, so why are you quoting me? Because you spun some dumb poo poo about Bernie being used to keep leftists home into your already dumb statement. Tho I'd love to hear how "hopefully not dying in miserable poverty, likely from a treatable illness they cant afford to treat" is "nothing."

1glitch0 posted:I'm happy to have the conversation because I don't really get it. If it was purely a difference in their political platforms what was Clinton offering to black voters that Sanders wasn't? From my observations? A belief that she'd owe them loving big because she wasn't going to accomplish her ambitions without their support.

DrNutt posted:Well that's certainly always paid off. I'm not going to make a judgment on it. It's a function of a lot of bad poo poo in American politics that ended up with the Clintons being unique among national-level politicians in their support of black communities even if that investment was purely transactional on their part. If you're drowning and two folks are offering you a hand, you're probably gonna take the hand of the person you know that needs you.

archangelwar posted:This is definitely true. That's true and fair. But I'm also largely of the mind that it was irresponsible at best and malicious at worst of any any parties that worked to push poo poo in line with the "breaking up the big banks" horseshit that very much had the intent of minimizing the importance of economic equality in folks heads behind it.

Chilichimp posted:I got into this with some demsbad posters near the start of this thread. Because a child was ever in a chainlink fence during the Obama administration, it's apparently the same thing, so Trump must be telling the truth here. You are literally still quibbling over a difference that amounts to "Well at least Obama had the decency to throw parent and child into the same kennel!"

Heck Yes! Loam! posted:Even if it was a hit job that uncovered his behavior, it was still the right thing to do. As someone that really like Franken before this all came out, it was incredibly illuminating to see all of his defenders out themselves as terrible loving people. And as we've seen, the continuing inability of certain folks to resist defending him well after the fact is frankly a gift.
