I've gotten the occasional pizza-to-the-house thing (over a gaming forum ban!) and it's like "so what, man? You gonna hop on a plane and show up or just keep sending me free food?"

Yea I know it's just frustrating that this particular conspiracy theory that used to just be a thing you heard on public access radio at 3am is now mainstream
20 years ago, you'd go out of your way to avoid the flouride-in-the-water guy ranting on a street corner, now that guy runs the state

"remove flouride from water"
What are you gonna do, send every Arkansan a mineral filter?
comment in response to
post
Do these people not understand that flouride occurs naturally in water and the reason we know it improves dental health is because americans who moved west (where it has higher concentrations) had better teeth and scientists went "huh, wonder why?"

Not updating your software after 2016 is a choice

Local electoral politics is good! But you should also find a small, local charity in your city that needs your time
A local trans youth center, a homeless outreach org, a small drug addiction harm reduction group, anything really

"I don't want to be where people are yelling at me" is a 100% understandable and explainable behavior, even outside of politics

I'm of the opinion that most national pols have internalized an important lesson over the past 20 years
You can just tell people to go fuck themselves if you aren't in danger of losing your seat. If protests are just waving signs at empty capital buildings, let those people scream all they want

Demand that your congressman run on it. If they won't, donate to and campaign for whatever opposition will.

What value do you find in reading white supremacist drivel?
Do you find it educational? Informative? Helpful, in some way?
You don't need to read that shit to get a feel for "the other side" so what's the value?

Thank you! Wanted to look a little more "stormy sky" than "baby's first space marine" lol

I just think it's worth being very clear about what these folks are saying (explicitly in the case of people like Matt Walsh) is that they want to go back to kids having kids
Sure it's couched in discussions around "pro natalist" adults but that's the trojan horse.
comment in response to
post
It's worse than that. Adult women aren't really having fewer kids
Declining birthrates in america are due to mostly rapidly declining teen pregnancy
comment in response to

Any campaign that 1) doesn't account for the fact that like 30% of the country doesn't vote and 2) can't convince their base to turn out deserves the blame for their failures
They failed where other campaigns succeeded. Why is that?

Excited for trump to agree to something we're already doing, frame it as a concession from china and then lower tarrifs and declare victory
comment in response to
post
Every newspaper should have a pun consultant on staff for just this reason
comment in response to
post
I cannot point this out enough
Birthrates in america are not down because adult women are having fewer kids. They are down because we've more or less solved teen pregnancy
That's what these creeps want to reverse.

Those religions exist already
not all religion (and not even all christianity) is contained within American Evangelicalism

Yes yes, we should reject religion. And we should replace it with something rational. We could call it something like... just spitballing here... the Cult Of Reason.
It'll be a new civic religion and work out perfectly with absolutely no downsides

I think a presidential campaign has to win. I dont care about the "quality" because it doesn't matter. Power is a zero sum game and she didn't do well enough to claim it.
"Oh but she exceeded expectations"
No she didn't the expectation was that she win. She lost.

Laughing at prisoners asking for water, thinking we can't reduce drug sentences because we need the prison (slave) labor, thinking trans women belong in men's prisons
I'm forgetting something else...
Oh. Right. Arming and funding a fucking genocide

Yes please! There are so many people I follow whose posts I enjoy but who go on annoying respost sprees every so often. Or people who repost every post in a thread rather than just the lead one.

But we haven't self-sorted, which is what the above post points out
comment in response to

Like, you've been alive since 67 and the objective of any campaign is to win
A campaign that loses cannot, by definition, be the best. Especially when someone like Obama won the presidency and ended up with a super majority
