Let me guess, “Something something literally anything that interacts with outsiders makes you actual Hitler something something accelerationism something something historicism something something capitalism is scientifically destined to fall like, tomorrow if you just don’t vote for anyone but CPUSA guys I swear.”

EDIT: Wait do people not know that I’m mocking tankies here?

People like them reek of the sheltered-liberal-20-year-old mindset of “the system is almost perfect, is we just make a couple of tweaks here and there it’ll be fine.” As if firearm restrictions alone will address socioeconomic ossification, the lack of meaningful state protection of vulnerable populations, deep resentment of minorities in homogenous, conservative areas, etc. Whining about how dumb people who hate guns less than they do are lets them get away with not doing the difficult work of addressing deep-rooted structural injustices. Fucking weak.

That’s what people have to do when they transparently have no actual knowledge of the regulatory landscape they’re trying to wade into lol. The same kind of idiot who actually believes it when some politician tells that that a complicated problem has an easy solution.

Then you’ll be remembered as the egotistical, arrogant piece of shit that doomed our Republic when you had the last best chance to save it. Like RBG but worse.

Actually I’m the oldest! I just had a lot of games that weren’t exactly cutting edge at the time lol

Bro I’m early 30s and I was like “OHHHH SHIT MY CHILDHOOD!” haha

Really? Huh. I get natural too and I feel like it stays good for a couple weeks, but gets a kinda weird bitterness after that. Kinda like celery but less dramatic. It’s definitely still edible either way though.

If it’s the more natural kind it can go rancid if you don’t eat it fairly quickly. If it’s peanut butter flavored frosting like Jiff then it doesn’t matter really

In my state there were literally not other options. We had a single candidate primary.

Exactly. It’s very much structural. And fixable, but we won’t fix it :/

I understand, but how is it viable, from the standpoint of the opposition, to be anything other than a unified party in opposition if there’s no chance to bargain for a position in a coalition government, to form a coalition to win an election to make a new government, etc? That doesn’t make any sense, why would anyone split like that?

No, the executive is compartmentalized and voted for separately, so there’s no dissolution of parliament, negotiations over forming a government, etc. Seems like a small difference, but structurally it’s a large and impactful distinction.

Wait do other people really not get that this is sarcasm?

It’s not a hard choice, and everyone should make that easy choice this November. Still, that doesn’t make it easy to plug your nose and do it.

“I don’t understand why turnover is so high. Ever since COVID people just don’t have any work ethic. The lockdowns really destroyed our economy in irreparable ways. Wait no, don’t quit.”

A house in a remote location is insanely naïve. Rambo isn’t real life, if you want a snowball’s chance in hell of making it in that kind of a scenario you need to have group support. When the sea people came you didn’t want to be in major metros on the coast, but you also didn’t want to the the guy alone who became the lonely corpse in the countryside. There’s a happy medium where you have the best chances of survival. This is just delusional apocalypse porn.

I feel the same way about “every accusation is a confession.” It’s such over simplified, sixth grade mean girl bullshit. Buuuuuuut it hasn’t been wrong lately, which is annoying lol.

A lot of people miss that NY is a liberal state, but in the sort of “commercial liberal” way. It’s basically the embodiment of old school moderate liberalism. I’m obviously simplifying, but NY is Democratic, but not necessarily progressive.
