  1. You're looking at this all wrong. Shane Gillis IS the one guy doing this. He's actually doing a good job both calling out the idiocy/inhumanity of this regime all the while getting MAGAts to think he's one of them: https://nypost.com/2025/02/28/us-news/trump-reveals-hes-a-fan-of-comic-shane-gillis-says-hes-on-our-side-after-super-bowl-meeting/?utm_source=chatgpt.com HK can dislike him if he wants. Let that shit go. Instead, you should be pointing out how this makes SG unique and a rare talent to be able to navigate our hyper-polarized time. Comics can often be liked across the left-right divide by steering clear of politics altogether, but it is rare to speak about political subjects at length and have a fandom that straddles the aisle.
  2. Harsh, but need to be said. I appreciate you not holding back any of your feelings in setting everyone straight. When is comes to your leadership of this board you're certainly all in.
  3. Coming out of the stagflation '70s was rightly called malaise. Sure, in historical terms, Americans had it pretty good, but boomers wanted to get paid in the '80s, and older generations did feel like things were in decline. Dems were complacent, but I'm not sure they had a defense against the spell voodoo economics was casting.
  4. Scarcity for the donor class driving up the price, which goes straight to Trumpco. Always be grifting.
  5. This is true even in Montgomery County. I've noticed the rate of cars ornamented with such shit dropping from 80% to about 75%.
  6. Considering how little I've posted on this thread, you'll forgive me if I feel you've missed the mark here. Generally, I feel, any person/entity that reverses course first admits, at least internally, to a misstep. That's what I meant. Putting Dem strategists in the stocks, while certainly amusing, and probably cathartic for some, would accomplish very little. Edited to add: I re-read my post you quoted, and, yeah, I stated that poorly.
  7. My firm's bottom line is counting on this to continue. But I feel that a bet made on the premise "pussy is undefeated" is just good analytics.
  8. They'll still vote against the Dems even if you make admissions and show empathy, but yeah, the first step is admitting the problem/failure.
  9. The boldest points to a more interesting discussion than whether the obvious has happened. How does the Democratic Party put supporting the middle class economically at the center of its messaging? When it comes to 30-something white men, I don't think paid maternity leave, health care, increasing the minimum wage, clean energy, expanding child tax credits, and the like have or are going to resonate with the brosephs swayed by Rogan or Jordan Peterson to vote for billionaire tax cuts. Those policies may help them (health insurance is pretty fucking importany, clean energy efforts lead to good jobs, etc.) but the guys we're talking about are going to need those policies dressed up with MMA stars holding some guns and/or enticing ladies with BBLs and tits for them to give a shit. Like I said, I don't think we need to argue whether they were "lost." Election results and Rogan's gigantic contract tells us they are. What's next? As someone who never, not for even one minute, thought Ayn Rand had something interesting to say, this "lost generation" is simply not my people. You seem to be raising your hand saying these are your folks. How do you think progressives get a couple percentage points of them to even listen to someone outside the meathead right?
  10. I don't know. I'm getting the vibe of a dead-end discussion considering: Seems like the only call to action is to pump up Compact Mag's numbers.
  11. Why did he take a step back to analyst?
  12. PPP2 and CARES2 will be huge! Subsequent 15% mortgage rates will force everyone into 60 year notes. Serfdom for most incoming.
  13. I've heard better consipracy theories on campus.
  14. 16 teams, keep the top 5 conf winners bit. Sure we'll arguments that some 4 loss team should get in over a 3-loss squad with an aggy or ND like schedule. But the easy answer is: don't lose 1/3rd of your games if you want in the playoff. All these arguments about schedules and realignment are boring. Ain't none of that going to happen.
