  1. Can you name a Biden lie that is equal-to-or-worse than the continued assertion that Joe Biden and the Democratic party illegally rigged the 2020 presidential election in multiple states to override the will of the people and install Biden as an unelected despot?

  5. The infrastructure bill helps everyone, young people included. The chips bill helps everyone, young people included. Strengthening unions helps all workers, young people included. Wages for everyone are higher when unions are strong, union and non-union workers alike. Global warming is a problem that will affect young people more than it will affect me. Biden acknowledges it and is trying to address it. He’s not doing enough, but the other side denies that the problem even exists. The repeal of Roe v. Wade affects young people, not grandma and grandpa. Biden wants to codify abortion rights into law. Young women (and real men) should be turning out in droves to oppose the GOP. What the fuck more do young people want? The next perfect president will be the first perfect president. The alternative is such a looming fucking disaster that it’s insane it’s even a question among decent, normal, educated people about whom to vote for.

  6. As we finished our campus tour today, one of the senior guides who was doing his last-ever tour before graduation teared up as he told the group how much his time on the 40 Acres meant to him, as his parents and friends looked on and cheered him … and then a woman rode by on a bike screaming β€œUT COMMITS FUCKING GENOCIDE” repeatedly in an effort to drown him out. So that happened…

  10. What is deporting 11 million people going to do to inflation and the economy!? JFC, you think things are expensive now, how much is it going to cost to frame a house/buy a package of strawberries/go out to eat/literally everything that laborers touch? The same stupid fuckers who say things like "no one wants to work anymore" can't see any problems with this? Not to mention the pure evil of ripping that many families apart, but they don't care about that. (probably a welcomed side effect actually)

  11. I largely agree. As you're aware, I'm sure, my position on the Palestine issue is pretty clear in that I think Palestinians have a fundamental right to self-determination. Israel's 50-year-old occupation and settlement policy are as responsible for the radicalization of the population as anything else. While I believe the conduct of the IDF in Gaza has been overly reckless and cruel to civilians, I also fully acknowledge that Israel has a right to self-defense and support its defeat of Hamas's military. As an American citizen and taxpayer, I'm really uncomfortable with the degree of military support and diplomatic cover we provide their government, which allows them to operate in such a brazen manner in both Gaza and the West Bank. The kinetic nature of warfare, with all its ongoing deaths and destruction, inflames passions and gives a sense of urgency and energy to protests. I fully understand that, but there's little that these protestors can accomplish in the short time necessary to affect what's happening RIGHT NOW. So, I'm not sure this particular issue is where I'd invest all my blood, sweat, and tears if I were a student activist. Now, I'm not saying it's unworthy of protests, and, to be honest, 60-some-odd protestors (initial count from yesterday) on a campus of 50,000 students probably isn't far out of line with how people prioritize issues. To me, it's the heavy-handed response by Hartzell and the State that's created the media firestorm. Having said all that, they (we all) need to be focusing more on the bigger picture, which is defeating theocratic fascism and white nationalism at home as that encompasses so many fucking other issues (free elections, racial equality, abortion rights, privacy rights, LGBTQ rights, gender equality, public education, etc.). Without tackling this fundamental shit, we won't be able to tackle any of the other challenges we're facing, including climate change and assaults on democracy abroad. I'd love those kids to be building a much broader coalition focusing on fighting authoritarianism at home, giving them the moral authority and context for their protestations against Israeli policies in the Occupied Territories.

  14. So, the Aggies and transfer WRs. They were focused on two WRs - Lambert-Smith (Penn State), and Sam Brown (UH). MOds/subscribers seemed to think more highly of Brown. Lambert-Smith chose Oregon. And so the Ags leapt to the ineluctable conclusion that that could only augur well for their chances with Brown ... he would be a good Ag!! Whoop! Canuck!! (Or whatever they yell.) Sam Brown committed to Miami. A few choice cuts, for your enjoyment (and note the upvotes, as indicative of the zeitgeist): (From a diff thread, re: a post about Miami getting aggressive w/ NIL.) Do NOT accuse them of lacking self-awareness and introspection. And ... let's end with an admittedly painful admission, shall we?

  18. They often are not. They are free to get all the food and water they want -- I'm sure there's a cafe near campus. They just have to leave the building they have taken over to go get it. And no, the university has no obligation to allow other people to bring food and water in to those people. If you wanted food and water when you started your illegal occupation of a facility, you should have planned ahead and brought some. But this is about being performative and "look at me," not about any actual well-thought-out strategy. Y'all made a poor choice (set up camp in a building without bringing the necessities). Live with your choice.

  21. Jaime Ffrench update The Texas Longhorns continue to be a good position for Jacksonville (Fla.) Mandarin 4-star WR Jaime Ffrench. OnTexasFootball spoke with a source close to the Ffrench recruitment Tuesday morning that told us that Texas and LSU should be considered the top 2 right now with Texas having had a great spring visit with Ffrench and family. Miami and Tennessee are also in it, and Ohio State has slipped. Texas has a real shot here due to offensive scheme, QB room, Sarkisian, player development and academic/football combo. His mom really likes the football/academic combo at Texas. Jaime Ffrench official visit schedule LSU May 31-June 2 Miami June 7-9 Tennessee June 14-16 Texas June 21-23 - Gerry

  22. Biden does not care about appeasing the very vocal minority on whatever they decide is the issue of the day, that is true. His presidency is filled with things that have improved the life of young people. It is a choice to ignore those.

  24. Biden’s been an extremely consequential president in a good way for young people, on everything from worker protections to reproductive rights to climate. His accomplishments would be even more impressive if not for judicial and legislative obstructions from the same people who support his opponents. On the other hand, it’s easy to imagine him having the wrong feelings when watching protests get broken up even though there’s no evidence for that at all. So I guess it’s a wash.

As for stress…fatfuck thrives in chaos - that’s not necessarily stress for him. But sitting in court with people talking shit on you all day and actual peasants (how he sees them) deciding your fate? Thats maximum stress for this POS. MOARRRR
