  1. Talk about the one that is halfcocked and set the goalposts, you started the interaction pal
  2. I replied that there is NO worsening the problem, we ARE in the worst case scenario.
  3. There is nothing worse than second place to Trump, absolutely nothing worse. Part of the democrats problem is that they can not even convince their own voters that they want to win. Absolutely everyone thinks that they just want to maintain the status quo, even if it means losing the presidency to a shitstain. They rather lose, get carted off, and smell their own farts because they are sooo much better...
  4. 23 vs 24 years is minutiae
  5. So we are now arguing minutiae then?
  6. How can any candidate be considered a leftist candidate if they have the backing of Goldman and Sachs? in pure economic terms based on real historical evidence it is the Democratic party that practices austerity (fiscally responsible economics) and open trade, that is quite literally the real GOP platform BEFORE Trump, wheras Donny does stupid protectionism and handouts (eviction ban, COVID checks, etc). Fascists tend to choose populist economic policies even if they are on paper further to the left than the libertarian wing of the party. It is my mission in life for Democrats to finally learn that they need to ditch the Clinton wing of economics, it is a poison pill they refuse to learn because they are owned by corporations.
  7. I mean I have my reasons as well people disagree and my response is not "OK" I read and reply point by point or not bother at all. You say this place is an echo chamber the fact that you are being disagreed upon disproves it.
  8. Do you always post OK when you are stumped?
  9. I have been a poster on HF, Shaggy, Surly since 2001
  10. If the species dies in a nuclear fire I would write in on its toombstone: "Always refused reason and logic because he/she was humiliated and angry to be shown wrong"
  11. I don't care if you know me I have been at this much longer than you, I also just speak objective facts, I am center left and can count like 5 people that really agree with me, CR at its core is disillusioned republicans because the GOP went full fascist. Think of it this way was Churchill left wing? nope famously said that if Hitler was fighting the devil he would have nice things to say to him in the house of commons. The inability of you to see this is why the democratic party is one of the biggest tent parties, and hence one of the biggest failed political parties in history. Nevertrumpers are like 1% at this point, Trump seduced every single idiot in the country.
  12. Look 8 years ago only 33% of the country supported deportations that moved up to almost 50% thanks to Donald Trump shifting the overton window, people drank the hate fluid pouring out of his endless spit and altered their brainwaves to believe people that pick the fruits are a threat, I can not even imagine the torture chambers in Guantanamo they would open up for them if they were actually a threat. Immigration is not a real issue, the real issue is poverty and the anxiety this generates. Notice how the issue is not like 66% in favor of deportations, just that MAGA voters drank the hate juice. Even abortion which polls way higher in support got nullified by poverty related anxiety. I swear I read a post before the election of some early 20s something incel moron wishing that Trump wins so that he can let loose, deport illegals so that he can finally lose his virginity (or some Handmaiden's tale fantasy). Brainwashing to the core, you deport undocumented immigrants and they will blame you next.
  13. We need to end identity politics for good, it is literally the #1 reason we lost the genZ male vote, IDP are an extremely loud and small minority, I want to be very specific though the civil rights movement was not identity politics, the gay rights movement was not identity politics, identity politics is purity politics designed to bully people and make you feel good, despite hurting our cause. Stuff like supporting Amber Heard is identity politics it was radioactively toxic, only 5% approval, but in social justice circles they drank the emotional kool aide and articles were still written defending her. Emotion is a powerful tool, but only the emotions of the majority matter, stuff like poverty are what matter. If people piss the majority off on stuff they don't care about, then it is a doomed disaster scenario.
  14. Look there are quite a few people that went looney bin for Trump, but most of the people in the politics boards are the exact same HF conservatives/former republicans that are worried about the overton window swinging to the extremist far right. I am actually pleasantly surprised they stuck to their morals. The CR is a center right forum, the problem is the window shift and so many people sucked into the Nuremberg Rally fever brainrot, including TTom it seems.
  15. This year I first learned that only the player that gets the first snap is the only one that can throw it away and Skaterboo got the direct snap, meaning in a double reverse pass can't be successfully thrown away without intentional grounding.
  16. Exactly they needed both a coach that was going to rebuild or one that lied to them and still did the rebuild, as it stands they chose poorly and he is a year behind schedule.
  17. SpideyAg was The People's Elbow nearly 100% certain of it, dude was extremely smart and I think he quit the internet (or passed away) because I would detect him under any handle in any forum on any day.
  18. Lets meet in the middle, have Jimbo say it was not NIL under oath and I will agree with you guys that they did not even bother to organize even an authograph session. That it was illegal bagmen boosters. Remember this autograph session could have happened 8 months later... during their losing season. Until he says that under oath I would just call him a weasel half liar and not really put much stock in his assertions. If this discussion is finally put to end by calling it "pay to win wire transfers with a veneer of plausible deniability because of autograph signings making it legal" then I swear I would do it, I grow really tired of this discussion. For the record I do think UT leads the nation in corporate NIL by a country mile. 0% of aggie NIL is clean NIL there is no Fansville comercials there is no nothing, it is all 100% pay to play.
  19. It was ugly NIL it was pay for play NIL but it is what it is nowadays, they got money wired to them, bagmen of yore could only transfer a car a mcdonalds bag of cash, this created a limit on the transactions and mid 5 figures were enough to get a player signed, few schools could offer more for that same reason. On June 2021 A&M could come to recruits and tell them we will WIRE you 6-7 figures a YEAR, if you sign with us, all you have to do is sign autographs. This is the only reason for their 2022 class they were early movers. (also I don't want to debate exact numbers gotcha if they are an order of magnitude wrong I don't give a shit) Was it clean? no, was it pay to play? yes, was it legal? according to state law yes because nobody could prove it was pay to play there was no smoking gun to be found because it was SO EASY to half ass an autograph session, why are people so obsessed about semantics? I have no idea. UT was months late on its NIL One Texas Fund was November, Pancake factory was December, are people really going to argue that A&M's disorganized booster led NIL was not really NIL? A) This is a waste of time argument B) nobody absolutely nobody not the NCAA not the courts not even Saban said it was illegal. TL;DR Texas A&M offered pay for play around June 2021, they could get away with it by just asking for signed autographs, this is still NIL, pay to play NIL but still NIL because that is what the Texas lege law lazyly allowed.
  20. All corner routes are anticipatory of the break and pinpoint otherwise its a waste.
  21. Lol Tony Grimes
  22. Exactly we need to tell people to stock up on food, save PTO, save money, a general strike must also be in the cards but only for 2028 people will be angry at us if we do this way too early, it is a last stop gap to prevent the unconstitutional third term attempt or the full power grab.
  23. During the offseason I called him their Garret Gilbert, Imagine if Colt had an extra year and Mack had decided to let him go lol.
