The sad truth here is that whether or not we can get rid of the filibuster is kind of a moot point.. just look at the WHPA vote today. Manchin and “pro-choice” Collins and Murkowski all voted no. The country couldn’t even cough up a single extra “yes” to make the filibuster question meaningful.

:(

I guess supply and demand (and cause and effect) aren’t really taught in troll school?

Here is how supply and demand works in the real world. When the supply of one of the most widely used formula brands dries up, people turn to other brands. That, in turn, lowers the supply of those OTHER brands.

Combine with lower…

“Nobody has you are privilege”

You sure told us.  Fuck off, troll.

“Yes and? When your goals are progressive polices that need laws passed to enact... you need votes. Why do people around here keep sneering at Democrats for wanting the votes to accomplish the very things their voters keep demanding of them?”

I think the point is many don’t even try until they think they have votes.…

I almost wish I was a teacher in Florida. I’d spend the day talking about McCarthyism and the Red Scare and how it was leveraged to roll-back anything remotely “progressive” in the media and hollywood. The cherry on top would be ending with Ron Fucking DeSantis pulling from the same shitty playbook.

You said victims of…

And yet the Supreme Court has previously disagreed with that assessment of the 14th amendment.   Go back to your hole.

All this time they are trying to argue that a zygote and a fetus are a person.. and now they want to challenge a ruling that basically hinges on the idea that immigrant children are, in fact, “persons”.  JFC

Do we need Trucker Convoy 2: Electric Boogaloo to remind everyone that Canada also has reactionary right-wing assholes also? 

Surely you can come up with different reasoning to argue 2005 is superior. This is currently arguing that 2005 is better than a version of Battlefront 2 that doesn’t exist anymore.

No lootboxes, and currently works fine.

No, the issue (literally) is already stated in the post you seem so confused by: giving dangerous shitheads a bigger platform.

Or just look at the horizon, particularly from a higher vantage point.

“Counter Logic Gaming”

Well, they got that fuckin right.

We’ve got a real MRA over here.

You are absolutely the disgusting one. In fact, you reveal how much more disgusting you are with every reply.

Let me lay it out for you: you have no empathy, no sense of reality, and absolutely no real skin in this game. You are - simply put - human garbage. A puss-filled sock puppet for…

Flaw in my argument? That’s the entire point of it!

You trash talk at your own risk and there’s never going to be cut-and-dry “good” trash talk. Period. That’s why the arguing what is good and bad is bullshit.

If you want to do it, you carefully pick-and-choose who you say it to and who can hear it. Even when doing…

I don’t know why anyone should cut him any slack. It’s his schtick, and no amount of “it was a bad day” can change that fact. If you started yelling shit like this dude in almost any business establishment someone would eventually ask you to leave. Why gamers think a digital version of that is any different is -…

Yeah, I try to remind myself that people like this are dealing with significant mental illness/addiction... but holy shit this woman is a mess. The whole almost-apology reads more like “hey, please feel sorry for me and/or be proud of me”.

All god-awful behavior aside - she should at least own up to what a huge fuck-up…

At this point it seems extremely likely that these guys are talking about it/referencing it at work... which I HOPE is obviously problematic. Also amplified when coworkers already feel like they are being objectified or otherwise treated differently based on their gender.

At some point it’s less about what you do on…

Not gutted.. and yet, took the time to read the comments and reply. I guess something got to you.

I hate to break it to you... given that scams are invariably designed to make money, “those of you” are implicitly mentioned every time, bud.

It’s already implied that NFT fiends are shameless. Your comment basically amount…

Ugh - not counting all of our LOVELY present-day school shootings - the only thing worse than US labor massacres are US race massacres.

Rednecks at the Battle of Blair Mountain got bombed also, but Tulsa got there a few months earlier (and with even more casualties)

While that is true, I think main point is that any call to unionize - at least as far as how unions are demonized in the US - by itself should be positively damning to the company involved.

The US has one of the bloodiest - if not THE bloodiest - histories of anti-labor violence in the world. Just over a hundred years…
