Who is trying to lecture people? Who is telling people to feel “bad for being who they were born as”?

Shocking the same policies fucking over various minorities also make life shitty for poor white people. The republicans being created are the ones that bought into the whole as long as we have an underclass for the poor whites to look down on they’ll never look up at who is actually fucking them over because they’ll at least be better off than those other ultra poors.
I feel about the same about Biden as I did before. A guy driven by ego and past glory who saw an opportunity to regain the spotlight and he took it. The less cynical take is Biden actually believes he is the best candidate for the job of “saving democracy.”
If I had my way we wouldn’t be fielding any of these geriatric candidates, not because they lack experience or ability, but because we’ve already been doing their shtick for the last six decades and I’m tired of it.
Until we actually remove republicans and republican lites from the legislature I highly doubt we’ll see any progressive tax reforms, like actually taxing the rich. You could probably find more support for expanding house buying programs. Stuff like lowering the down payment requirements, and or give a large grant for a portion of the house value if it is high and it could be clawed back at sale.
I down voted for the deep state comment and the general both sides nature of your comments.
Aren’t they just moving on to calling it climate apocalypse cause climategeddon was already taken.
This is so confusing. I thought the DOJ due to the existence of a memo would not charge a sitting president with a crime, period. So why are these republicans wasting tax payer bucks on these investigations?
As far as releasing the tape, just do what they did with the Mueller report and lock it in a tiny room with severely restricted access. The republicans can have a cassette tape of the interview and a record player to listen, but they only get 3 minutes, and no phones or any other recording devices.
Maybe check out Matt McManus’s work, he’s a professor at the University of Michigan.
You left out the forced rounded corners.
I guess if you live in an already decided stronghold state then go vote for whatever you want. Otherwise, don’t let a fantasy get in the way of the only obvious option if you like democracy.
I’d be curious if anyone is doing an accounting of the total take though. I get that his campaign isn’t raising as much money, but how many sneakers did they sell? I’m assuming they sold a few bibles and I’d assume he has his fingers in the 2 billion Kushner took for “investments.”
We need some revolutions in education technology and theory. These conservatives really only learn when they actually touch the hot stove. So something like that alien device from Star Trek that let Picard live an entire alien life. Or that monument to the alien war from Voy that let a bunch of their crew experience the people’s memories.
We have an over emphasis on finance in our system. After off shoring everything for decades we got cheaper goods for a while and with the dollar as the world’s currency we got to export a lot of our inflation. On the shorter time frame we’ve pumped a ton of money into the system. The powers that be could’ve put that money to work building out manufacturing instead the money went into assets and now stocks and houses are really expensive. So basic inflation is going on too much money chasing too few goods and it is because the big inflation has been going on in assets. And the deflation from technology has about run its course, everyone has a smart phone and a flat screen TV.
This is the end result of 40+ years of pushing the tax burden onto the middle class all in a massive transfer of wealth from the public to the private. The elites have captured the political system to benefit themselves and the rest of us just watch as our institutions are slowly dismantled. Meanwhile what are we investing in actually building? Infrastructure… not really. Better social safety nets… hell no. We are investing in making more weapons… because this is what happens when a small group of elites has too much control in a system we the little guys end up fighting their stupid wars.
sorry for the long essay.
Does this site have chats now? I thought it was just posts like an old school forum from like the 90s.
You aren’t accounting for the increase in cool stuff that makes people want to stick around longer. There’s at least one more Dune movie coming and even a Rebel Moon for the Snyder people. When dueling was popular people were going to church for fun… If you believe in an afterlife and most of your time is spent peasanting about, why not have some fun in a duel?
The American fascist party isn’t even trying to hide it anymore.
Or he’s just trying to impress some local farm boy who knows nothing about the galaxy, the ways of the force, or sand people.
They still need consumers though right? I mean they can’t automate that away can they? Cause I consume a lot of stuff and it takes a fair amount of effort, also it is like the only thing I am really good at.
There was a brief record scratch moment when the abortion ban stuff happened, but the trumpers I know got right back on the bandwagon and are now talking “white replacement theory.”
The debate just highlighted all the concerns that have been around this campaign from the start. The real nail in the coffin for Biden is the response to his terrible performance. They are sequestered and instead he needs to be out there showing the people that the debate was a one off. The fact that they aren’t getting Biden out there basically confirms that he can’t do it anymore.
Anyone that thinks Trump won that debate was almost certainly a trumper to begin with.
