The fact that this kind of logically empty spin works is proof that critical thinking is simply not taught or trained any more

He hasn't needed to understand them, as previously we operated largely under a free trade system. His entire business model depends on 'borderless' trade and he's never had to give it more than a seconds thought.

Undesirable bullying is making innocent people feel like shit. We don't want that! Desirable bullying is making shitty people feel like shit. We really want this!

I think the alternative explanation is simply that Polio retired on top of the pandemic game, as champion

These fuckin morons - it's like they stopped eating fruit because no one gets scurvy any more, and as soon as someone gets scurvy suddenly everyone remembers to eat an apple

The Harris and Walz selections drove a TON of positive coverage that was immediately squandered by poor staff decisions to walk back a lot of what drove that coverage. The Harris nom wasn't the issue - how the Democratic org chose to run the candidates was the massive own goal

You hope he is trolling, and find the alternative too unsettling to contemplate despite the mounting evidence to the contrary.

If other orgs took action in solidarity and were similarly punished, at least it will fully resemble what it actually is - an attack on true journalism. If the white house can dictate the words used to describe the world, do you think it stops there?

Lol fuck no who am I? I guess I'm not being clear in all these replies - I don't like the white moderates either!!! I'm not moderate buuuuuuuuuut the current stance of whatever this is, this cloud based leftist realm - has not been effective.

You are so so far away from electing a socialist, I'm very sorry to say. You see I'm Canadian, live in a country of universal healthcare, workplace protection for all genders, and extremely proud of this. But we got a lotta maga wannabes here now, and it ain't great so id like that to stop very much

I don't feel particularly safe lol fine carry on with the anticen. I never blamed the left for trump. I'm saying what all this online is? Didn't work very well - factually. Not a ton of success on team left: culture edition

No you had it right the first time with AOC. The only effective leftist. I would have also included Bernie 6.years ago. Not a great track record. has the left taken a single seat away from a fascist? I'm just curious as to when we start hating fascists again. it seems entirely too easy to be one rn

Yeah vanishingly tiny. Not a very effective mindset!! That's what I'm saying

Yes the single useful leftist politician remaining. If you were a soulless empty vessel looking to run for office, which way would your political compass be pointing right about now? Rights got the juice. Need to change that at all costs.

Those people are so vanishingly few though - completely overwhelmed by dummies who don't have rational politics. I think we have to do all we can to reverse that trend and time spent whining about anyone who isn't a conservative is a waste of time.

Probably would have made sense not to let the authoritarians have even more power. Talking about the people on the left, not politicians. Whats the strategy? Every moment whining about centrists is a moment not talking about fascists. What happened to anti fascism? Anticen doesn't seem effective.

This mindset has been shown to be a proven failure. Has blaming liberals for 10 years gained the left a single seat at the table? It just keeps failing as a political strategy. Happening in Canada too. Time for something different.

I appreciate your point of view a ton on a lot of things but the world wide left really needs to start thinking critically about themselves. The constant blaming liberals for conservative wins for 10 years has been an abject failure. Time to consider what can be done *differently*

Do you mean clapping for trump or for those specific lines in the speech? I watched, didn't see the old guy clapping a whole lot quite honestly

This was in fact a common criticism in 1800s! That it was indecent, and inappropriate. Austen's Northanger Abbey was famously a defence of the novel, then seen by some as a distraction from the real world.

It's a good opportunity to consider why there is such a lack of discourse surrounding the real mass murder committed legally by the health insurance industry. Justice only stops vigilantism by actually existing, and everyone knows none of these monsters will see a courtroom.
