Getting a GED in your 30s means your life was fucked up somehow, which is fine unless you're a ghoul who punches down like she is
If your life was so screwed up you didn't take that basic step until your 30s you should come out of the experience with, say, some empathy. But she's an empty monster
I'm 60. Never bothered getting a GED and my life isn't and has never been "screwed up".
She is an empty monster. Doubt a GED (or lack of one) is relevant.
Totally. She's absolutely worked to better herself, and it hasn't been easy. She has tremendous talent and drive. That's not what makes her a bad person (though poisoning her customers is a problem IMO). She's horrible, though, because she has horrible values.
What is wrong is getting your GED at 30 on the fourth try then pontificating disparagingly about βelitesβ and βliberalsβ who created the programs her and her mother relied on to live
Just like her βfamily firstβ stance that neglects how to give handjobs in theatres
She just recently got her GED? What was the delay? Did she get it just to run for office or was she working on some other goal? Just questions I have. Nothing wrong with running a bar and getting a GED. I think the post is simply highlighting the differences in their accomplishments.
Not her, the concept. We all know boebert is a piece of shit. Welfare is an extremely important and necessary function of our society, and it does us no good to shit on it. We can contrast crockett and boebert on their merits, not their backgrounds.
Yes, and how often did the GOP attack her for it? Itβs the hypocrisy that is the issue- not the fact both worked at bars. One is treated different from the other.
I mean thats the point. If we sit here and put stuff like GED and Bartender on a list, in obvious negative light, it alienates people. My point was find a bigger target.
I think the point here is the Congresswoman who talks down and criticizes others, including Jasmine, isnβt half as qualified as Jasmine is. And thatβs not to put working in a bar or having a GED in a negative light- Jasmine is just more qualified and Lauren is not despite her arrogance otherwise.
It's funny. Crockett is an obviously better brought up person in a conservative sense--father a pastor, sent to college, where Boebert was raised by a welfare-dependent single mother after her pro-wrestler father disappeared and began adult life as a pregnant high school dropout--
But what makes Crockett a better congressmember (as she indubitably is) isn't that, though it might well be related to that. What it's mainly about is that she cares about people and puts her talents to work for them. She's got real values...
Low-class Lauren Boebert and high-class multimillionaire JD Vance both come from rough backgrounds, but what they really have in common isn't background; it's contempt, and spite, for everybody they come into contact with. I don't think being born poor condemns you to that (John Lewis came from a...
...desperately poor background too), but that it's maybe something about how much love there was in your background. I think we should see Crockett as somebody raised with a lot of love and Boebert and Vance as people who weren't. Which doesn't mean we should turn around and treat them as...
bad people, but rather feel sorry for them as people who haven't had much opportunity to be good. Boebert is very smart too, as I've said before, but she's raised to mistrust and hatred, and it's hard to be good under those conditions.
Raises my opinion of the Kid. I thought he was a manipulative pedo and here he is ready for a relationship with a woman who is far stronger and more resourceful than he is. Why, he's practically a feminist!
You left out large Marge with the BIG mouth... she's a piece of crap too, just like her enemy Bobo! They are fighting to see who has the most Stinky crap on their nose. Bobo had 20 pounds but Marge beat that and has 24! It's nose and nose...
The red-hats will probably just say that her not paying her taxes and stiffing her suppliers just makes her more like their bigly immortal god-emperor.
This is the problem that plagues America and America will never be healed until white supremacy is defeated. There is no comparison between these women. One is 100 the other is 0 but they are at the same levels of life. Until this is corrected, America is doomed.
I agree with the general sentiment of this, but lets not shame people for the speed at which they get educated or what service industry jobs they've worked. That's rightwing and classist and ableist stuff and we should be better than that.
Bobo only got her GED because it was a requirement for her position, she failed it three times and on the fourth time they practically gave it to her. I wouldn't call her educated as she only did it for the job that she refuses to do in the first place. However I do agree with your sentiments.

(ducking ... i love her)

If your job is about making and passing laws, then passing the bar is more relevant than running a bar.
But my point still stands. There is nothing wrong with owning a bar or working in one.

It comes across as elitist
Love me I'm a liberal!
I have known some pretty smart people in my life, and none of them have ever tried to jerk off their dates in public.
They support cutting cancer research for kids and care for veterans. They said nothing against Musk. They certainly look like bad people right now.
