Every revolution evaporates and leaves behind only the slime of a new bureaucracy


my kinda ape posted:

They're not actively trying to gently caress them but until very recently they've put in little to no effort to court these areas. That IS beginning to change I think and that's great, but it's going to take quite a while to have an effect. Having the attitude where you say poo poo like

is counterproductive and lovely. That's my whole argument. Acting like people from a certain area are unworthy subhumans isn't going to get any of them that are otherwise sympathetic to your positions to go out and vote. They'll just stay home and let the chuds vote.

So supporting and financing the program's I mentioned is "little to no support"?

Hillary said the deplorable thing but I'm not otherwise seeing some massive DNC departure of their welfare and relief program support.

It really is telling that you can back all kinds of stuff that tangibly improves if not outright supports the lives of rurals and get no credit for it but the moment you do anything that says "don't be a goddamn bigot" like stronger hate crime laws or adding sexual orientation or gender identity to the protected classes you're telling rurals they can all gently caress off and die.

I came from the rural. I can honestly and faithfully say, gently caress those people and gently caress those areas.

The DNC was not supporting candidates in red states and was focusing almost entirely on national elections pre-2016 because it wasn't worth the money/effort. They seem to have gotten the idea now that that may have been a poor long-term strategy and have changed direction somewhat but some of you seem to think that's still the way to go I guess.

My biggest takeaway from 2016 is that there were an awful lot of people, some of whom I know very well, who were just waiting for someone to tell them it was ok to openly hate minorities again.

How is that not the logical outcome of that attitude? If you actually think those areas are populated by people not worth your time then why would you waste your energy and resources there? That doesn't make any sense.

Hillary opening up on the 'deplorables' was not a good election move but was also completely truthful.

Dems focusing on identity politics ignored regional issues that shouldn't be ignored but it doesn't mean it was not a morally good thing to do.

Literally every subway sandwich tastes the same, regardless of what you have. Veggie delight? Same as the grilled chicken or steak.

Well, as far as the meats go, they're all turkey. I don't know why veggies would taste like turkey though.

I guess today I found out that you can sell turkey that looks like roast beef and chicken and market it as roast beef and chicken even if it’s turkey.

Quiznos is fine if you are hung over and want a giant sandwich with ranch and fake guacamole squirted all over it. Wherever that lands on the scale for you, that's where Quiznos belongs. Airports, strip mall hell, truck stops, etc.

I think most quiznos I've seen are in airports, train stations or malls.

They're kinda like sbarro then, though quiznos is actually ok if overpriced whereas sbarro is garbage.

Yeah, having just spent a couple of days driving on the interstates for the holidays, a lot of service plazas in the Ohio/Pennsylvania/Virginia area had Quiznos in them. Also Sbarro, now that I think about it.

They used to have more sites in strip malls and similar but closed most of them in their bankruptcy a few years ago.

I seem to recall an article about sbarro going through similar dire straits (idr if it was bankruptcy or not), they kept basically only the airports and similar locations because that real estate is worth a lot and even mediocre product moves so long as you keep the place open to hold down the lease.
