Especially since the Senate has been lost for a generation. Just fucking sic the JD on these assholes. Hold a victory parade every time one of them is sentenced.

Yes Patrick. I have to live in society as it is. You are the first person to ever think of this.

Billionaires should not exist. Every single one is a result of a system that funnels wealth from people who work to people who don't. The system is evil and they are the result. If they can realize that and beg our forgiveness, then fine. If not, the French had a solution for unelected overlords.

I think we should have a system where Mackenzie Scott doesn't need to give back her billions because she was never allowed to steal it in the first place.

It's great that she returned $20 billion of her stolen fortune to the world, now she should give up the rest because it's also stolen from her ex-husband's workers.

I know you think you're going to find some secret gotcha that no capitalist has ever thought of before that's finally going to prove all those commies wrong, but trust me dude. There's nothing you can say I haven't seen a thousand times before.

I do not think we should have a classist society where wealth accumulation grants rights and powers to random people, yes.

I think its *effectivenes* is overstated because refs do see thru the BS more than they're given credit for. But it's actually impossible to overstate the way SGA plays. Every single posession he momentarily ceases playing basketball to spastically fling his limbs in all directions and collapse.

I think people should not be allowed to become billionaires and the existing ones should be given the chance to give up their wealth and spend the rest of their life working for humanity.

Yes, Patrick. I have participated in capitalism. I wish that money didn't go to the Pohlads, who I would like to be tarred and feathered.

Oh boy, you're about to do some deep thinking. Can't wait to see you thread this needle. Yes, I am.

No, I think he should be given the option of giving up his wealth first.

SGA fell down 3 more times in the time it took me to read this skeet.

I know this is a foreign concept to you but no one here believes you deserve attention and deference just because the random money cannon was pointed in your direction for a minute 30 years ago. You're a murderous oligarch. We don't have to like it.

"We should be thankful that this oligarch is throwing a few crumbs instead of mass murdering."
Nah, fuck off. Mark Cuban does not deserve to keep his head.

Neoliberalism, supply-side progressivism, third way, call it what you want, it's nothing new.

Tell SCOTUS you're never turning payments back on if they intervene on the cancellation. Fight for your own policy dammit!

The dems overperformed midterm expectations, then opinions on the economy turned negative as they turned off the covid era welfare state. Obviously the lesson to be learned is people didn't like the welfare state.

Only things my wife and I keep up with now are Andor and House of the Dragon (8-12 episodes every 2 years).

I don't consistently watch a single sport you mentioned here so I can't speak to their rules. Yes, I believe Shai should be fined after every single game under the anti-flopping rules already in place.

The high water mark for the Dame Lillard era in Portland was a single appearance in the WCF that ended in 5 games.

DeRozan is less of a flopper because light contact doesn't send him sprawled to the floor every time he shoots. He makes an attempt to play basketball.

Okay so you admit that everyone complaining is right, just that it doesn't bother you personally glad we had this talk.

*Shai veers into defender, contact results in him flinging limbs in all directions and skidding across the floor*
Seth: "You don't understand, he gets fouls because he's so good at controlling his body"

You mean in this 30 team league the Wolves aren't guaranteed to be the best? Well I never!
comment in response to
post
SGA defenders can't have it both ways. For as talented as he supposedly is, guy falls down a lot. You either have to say he's a flopper or he's actually incredibly uncoordinated by NBA standards.
comment in response to
post
Hard to believe he's as talented as you say he is when he seems to have no control over his body the moment he comes into contact with a defender.
comment in response to
post
Getting fouled while trying to score is a different thing than getting fouled while trying to get fouled. It's annoying to watch any contact lead to the head snapping back and his limbs zooming in 4 different directions.
comment in response to
post
And he'll fall down on every single one.
comment in response to
post
If he's so talented why does he fall down so much? If he's actually getting fouled why does he need to flop?
comment in response to
post
Except once Shai has beaten his guy he veers into the defender or stiff arms with his off hand. Ceases playing basketball so he can do his little performance.
comment in response to

Sure, but people need to at least acknowledge it.
comment in response to

Had the wolves kept it together for this season then they wouldn't for next season.
comment in response to

So yes.
comment in response to
post
I think veering into defenders and falling down is loser shit, personally.
comment in response to
post
Should Shai have gone to the line the possession his elbow got fouled by ants face?
comment in response to
post
I agree. I think it's bad that that's what the league wants from its stars.
