Unfortunately, what you are saying is an aspirational ideal at this point. Racism is political now. We have a major party that is based on waging a war for dominance of a culture of white supremacy. For a simple graphic reminder,this was three year ago:
This is what passes for intellectualism on the right. Seriously. Very similar logic to the “slavery isn’t racism, it’s economics” argument, or Rand Paul’s “universal health care = slavery for doctors”, or pretty much anything Ben Shapiro has ever said.
I’m confused as to if you’re talking about D1 or D2. In raids: For D1, tians are in the range of “really nice to have” to “essential” in a few encounters, and totally viable and useful. In D2, the overwhelming consensus is that titans are next to useless, aside from being a warm body to fill a slot. Everything they do…
Place the item on a heavy cast iron skillet or pan. The metal transfers heat very well from the air to the frozen item.
Well, once they die, they fall into a category that he show reverence for, so he’s got his bases covered...
They are the reality of libertarianism, though. It’s a craven sham as a public/politicl philosophy.
Over on TPM they’ve been having a great discussion about this, and the reality is that while Ds do not have much power, they have not been fighting the battle that they could be fighting. Just in last 72 hours the party has started to realize the mistake and started to better flex the muscles they do have. There are…
I very much agree with you, but there is also a failure of leadership. Our politicians follow public opinion much more at this point than leading and shaping it. Civil rights were not popular, but our leaders fought for them and were ahead of public opinion. Currently, our “leaders” won’t act until the public is ahead…
What’s the deal with passports? If I have a passport but not a REAL ID, is that sufficient?
Yeah, I have way too much faith in the young, myself. We’ve got generations of voters coming into the game who have experienced the lie of capitalism as practiced in the US. They have student debt, can’t afford a home, work multiple jobs and live in multi-family apartments, struggling to get by day-to-day, and being…
I think almost definitionally that the percentage of Sander’s voters who voted for Trump were never going to vote for Clinton. Taking them for granted as Clinton voters without Sanders seems like a pretty bad assumption.
Great, hope your moral outrage get’s you through four more years of bad governance when Trump is re-elected.
Yes, and no, in my opinion. This is a culture war, not a logical battle over objective, substantive, policy positions. The right is a tribe battling for a particular mandated culture in this country.
So, yeah, it’s a pretty big failure on the part of D’s then, right? Clinton was an even worse relative candidate. They lost to a worse opponent. The example was conceptual, not direct, btw...
Kinda? It was successful against her long before she ran for President. The Ds either failed to acknowledge how successful it had been, and/or the campaign failed to overcome the obstacle that was right there in front of them before they even started the campaign. So, kinda, if you want to look at it that way? But if…

It’s not about math or truth, it’s about who they see as being “this country”.
Apparently not what you were actually saying. Apologies. Barring some editing of posts, I’m apparently demonstrating exactly what I was mocking. I’ll try not to be such an idiot in the future. Cheers.
You’re missing something. Reading comprehension truly is a lost art.
Exactly. Loot cave is a great example. Make your activities worth doing, both fun and rewarding, and players will do them, instead of opting to spend their time shooting at a hole in a wall.
