tbh im not even sure how you bring bills to the floor in the house. they have to make it out cmte first, yes? but can you just spam them in there too? even if its an unrelated cmte? can the chair just refuse to agendize it forever?

Smythe posted:how is exposing bad positions (No on m4a) to constituents pointless Uh, it's not? Sorry if I'm not being clear here, but I'm saying Blood Boils posted:Oh I didn't know she promised to force the vote. Did she give a reason why for the "no"? Fwiw I personally think forcing the vote should have been the play but it does also seem kinda performative and pointless without a chance to pass Like, I think it's understandable that not everyone thought force the vote was worthwhile. And I'm unsure that this position, while wrong, is the smoking gun some peeps seem to think it is. But I admit my foreign ignorance, and I would like to know more of pieces of her pattern of behaviour (or Bernie or the rest of the squad)

still seems pretty small potatoes given youse guys' political landscape, there must be more to it.
|
the squad is a media invention, they have never voted as a bloc and never will. there have been times when they could have withheld their votes like, for example, refusing to seat pelosi, and who knows what. could have pushed for any kind of legislative trades if they had discipline. but they dont, bc they are not beholden to a party.

Blood Boils posted:Uh, it's not? Sorry if I'm not being clear here, but I'm saying if the bill was brought to the floor, people would have to go on record voting either for or against it. people voting against it would be demonically roasted for doing so. even if it was manchin or sinema or another "rotating villain" it would still generate public outrage. this is a tool to get them primaried by their constituents. yes? am i wrong? is there some technical thing i dont know? its very possible that this is the case

hell yeah i support the squad. i want them to have long, beautiful careers that make them powerful. i want my qweens to be in power in their old age, to be the gerontocratic ghouls of the future. i want their young selves posted on future hell version of oldschoolcool so that the kids they're crushing can see that they were hot once with banging bods and big tiddies. i support women. i believe women. i want the glass ceiling shattered, we should have a cia woman from the squad as president at least once. maybe she'll be a republican. as long as they were dsa once, i consider it a win

Masculine Thrust posted:The job of American Marxists now is to reconnect with the international movement, the one that upholds and looks up to the best parts of American culture and history (would any American leftist org add George Washington as a posthumous member, the way Mao said he would have been a good Communist and welcomed into the CCP?) for the record this kind of appeal worked out really well for Ho Chi Minh

First make sure you remove your shoes and socks. Then you place your foot into the woman's vagina. Can be difficult and depends largely on the bodies of both you and the woman you're doing FTV with
