I was only responding to the list of policy proposals you posted. Neither Party is offering any of that. The choice is between holding things at this current level of Bad. Or actively making things much, much worse. It's an easy choice, yes. Just a depressing one.

I agree with all that. We desperately need a new New Deal. But there's a Democrat in the White House right now. And his entire 2020 primary campaign was about torpedoing Medicare for All. He said he'd veto it if a Democratic Congress put the bill on his desk. The guy literally said every...

In Iowa, 1959. Nikita Khruschev took one look at this farmer and patted his belly, exclaiming "now there's a REAL American!"

When were cops ever here to help anyone but the rich? Modern police in America were developed in the 19th century for two purposes: catching runaway slaves. And doing violence to striking workers. https://roarmag.org/essays/1877-railroad-strike-modern-police/ Another aspect of history we...

Ok this was so much weirder than I thought And even worse...it spent the entire game endearing itself to fans. Then they cooked it alive and ate it in front of everyone. Rest in power, Pop Tart. You lived more in 4 quarters than most do in a lifetime.

That's how it was in Cali in the medical only years. Time to reject modernity and embrace tradition.

"Immigrants will ruin our American Culture" American Culture: Ritualistically sacrificing a PopTart/Human hybrid before a football game ...to be fair, this is how they do medically assisted suicide in Orlando

Well, I firmly believe that at least 90% of America's problems in 2023 all stem from how we treated the original insurrectionists in the aftermath of their failed rebellion. Too kindly. At the very least, every slave owner should've been stripped of their money and lands. All of that...

The 14th Amendment seems pretty lenient. It just prevents insurrectionists from holding office again. This guy had other ideas: Really fun little treat for the 14th Amendment and Civil War revisionism to be in the news this holiday season. Great opportunity to yet again dab on...

I forgot about netrunning! I ended up dumping plenty of points into that again. It's like being a "mage" but in a shooter. Melting chooms' brains from a distance is preem. The Phantom Liberty DLC is so fuckin good. It has one of the best intro missions I've seen in a game. The story is...

saved a fuckton on Christmas gifts this year by getting like 20 of these laminated

Saying slavery was bad or the Confederacy were the bad guys in the Civil War alienates white supremacists and you can't win a nomination in the modern Republican Party without them. Another politician might be able to come up with an artful answer invoking Lincoln. But she's a woman whose...

This is a pattern with Haley. From 10 years ago: Here's the thing. I almost feel bad for her. Haley knows the cause of the Civil War was slavery. Because she graduated the 8th grade. She just knows mentioning that slavery was bad will hurt her with Republican voters. This is the...

I think the problem is there are millions of people who watch on some sort of Smart TV/Firestick/AppleTV app. They're just gonna have to eat the ads. I used this service before: https://real-debrid.com/ It streams torrents from their own servers. This is beneficial for a few reasons. You...

Let's check in on the "moderate" and "smart" Republican candidate for the Presidency This wasn't a gotchya question from a journalist. It was from a voter at a town hall. And it was an easy fucking question. In a sane country, her political career would be over. Pretty illuminating...

I think the shine finally came off the whole Streaming Revolution for me when I had to pay for Peacock. I paid for NBC. It's like a 30 Rock joke. It's getting to be time to Reject Modernity and Embrace Tradition.
