  1. My personal opinion is they were protecting friends. Probably Clinton. They also were slow to hit Trump because of he optics we are seeing now on his convictions.
  2. Again, progressive politicians arent doing that. Black people vote Dem, and so any issues in the Black Community are hung around the neck of the Democrats By Republicans. Anything any marginalized community says the the Rs weaponize it while the Ds run from it like its a disease. Its not us thats using identity politics Bob. Its the entire platform for the GOP. If they didnt do that no one would vote for their shitty policies.
  3. Posters don't get to come in here as if we forgot who they were a year ago at this time. Bad faith actors.
  4. They don't even need to use anyone running for office. Everyone knows who votes for who. You see a guy with wrap-around oakleys and an American flag shirt, you know what tribe he belongs to. So all it really needs to be is anyone with blue hair or black-brown. Right wingers are immediately going to associate that person with Democrats. Yep. They used Black America's reaction to that to fire up the ole hate machine. Disney makes a movie with ethnic representation and it turns into "they are trying to replace us". Has shit all to do with what Democratic politicians are running on.
  5. Progressives are the folks who are fucking things up? You are going to have to explain this one to me. Here is what I see- The democrats have spent decades throwing the marginalized under the bus to appease moderates like you. The 94 crime bill comes to mind. They have not run on identity politics at all, and have largely only gotten the marginalized vote out of no other options. Where you seem to be getting your idea of identity politics is the Republicans ability to attach all the marginalized groups to the Dems regardless of the fact that the Dems have largely tried to distance themselves from them on their platform. It's Republicans that are talking about Trans volleyball players. Its Republicans that are talking about men in women's bathrooms. It's Republicans that are talking about cat litter boxes in schools. It's Republicans that are talking about illegals being murderers and rapists. Its Republicans that are talking about DEI, and have been for decades talking about black people being a burden on the system. It's Republicans saying that Dems are trying to open borders to increase their voting pool. So you see, Progressives aren't doing anything to "fuck things up". What you are seeing is Republicans successfully attaching everything to the Democratic party simply by pointing out what marginalized groups vote for it. As long as black, brown, and lgbtq people vote D, the Rs will always use that to rile up their base. Meanwhile, the Democrats keep serving up Chuck Shumers and wonder why they keep losing elections. You think Progressives are the problem when its the opposite.
  6. Moderates are the reason we are where we are. The attempts to appease centrists only serve to make progressives apathetic and not turn out and vote. We are here because the DNC hasn't stood for anything, and as long as they keep rolling with moderates we will keep losing. Let me run you back through the democratic time machine for a bit. The D's spent the back half of the 60's righting a lot of wrongs. Back then the R's are what the D's currently are now.They spent their time droning on about policies, and the populace was tuning them out. Their attempts at reversing New Deal Era policies weren't popular. So they tied them to identity politics to get people to ignore the policies that were against their own interest, and instead vote for keeping minorities and women under thumb. From 1968 til now they've won 9 of the last 15 Presidential terms. The problem is that people do not want two right wing parties, and the DNC has been Republican lite. So as long as they are roughly the same true progressives and people that wanna see real change will keep staying home.
  7. To be honest, even though the men on this board are more conscious than most, we are still men, and we have been indoctrinated to act and think a certain way. Especially the generation we come from. I catch myself doing it all the time. So I apologize for being an asshole to women, especially on this board. If I am doing it you have full permission to call me out on it. My wife does it. So I am used to it. Don't mind us we love you guys for putting up with us Neanderthals.
  8. Honestly, I had the pleasure of meeting @Nicole44 irl and her nose does crinkle up.
  9. Ohio has something to say about that. Not sure on the alias.
  10. The silence tells you all you need to know.
  11. The homeless situation in Portland is really bad bro..... Oh my bad. Those pictures are Houston.
  12. My wife is a huge book nerd. Reads nightly. That lady would stay overnight if they would let her.
  13. My wife's sister lives in Portland. Real shithole. White folks walking around with their cups of coffee. OUT IN THE OPEN. I mean, who does that? Tattoos and dying their hair unnatural colors. Gross. Send in the troops.
  14. Anyone check to see if Sandusky and Epstein ever hang out?
  15. I was told Drew Allar was good https://media0.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTZjMDliOTUyamZwYTV0cTZoMTBpYWt6cDFtbTdzbTF4aTY5YzY5c3dqc3djcjh6MSZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZfYnlfaWQmY3Q9Zw/14smAwp2uHM3Di/giphy.gif

  20. Imagine someone who has the ear of the most powerful office in the world using 4chan insults in a high profile case.
  21. If you read the scriptures, they are actually the ones who will still be here worshipping the antichrist, and will only come to that realization once the real Christians are raptured.
