  1. Also so perfect that Axlerod has that stupid fucking joke about not enough people watching CNN. These old Dem talking heads are just so fucking tone deaf.
  2. Pete just touched on this a few days ago.
  3. Old white guy is a band-aid. Biden's presidency led to a second Trump term. These asshole become more radicalized by the day, stop trying to placate them. Need to trot out the legitimately best candidate to lead our country, race/gender/age/sexual preference be damned. Maybe that's not Pete, I'm open to other options. I just don't see them yet.
  4. I understand the reasoning, but at this point a large segment of the population are willing to automatically disqualify the ideal candidate as well. Enough with trying to appease the bigots or MAGAts. Put the most substantive, thoughtful, authentic, and skilled communicator at the top of the ticket. He is the only person that has consistently shown the ability to punch back.
  5. I'd say it's how democracy loses. We know Trumpers will never believe whatever the Democrats say. It literally doesn't matter. There is no public square anymore. These people have chosen stupidity and the only thing that could wake them up is the tangible personal damage they will feel due to Trump/Musk's actions.
  6. I don't know anything about Heath outside of seeing him for a few minutes on one of Baldoni's podcasts. The Baha'i Faith attracts a lot of very empathetic people. Clearly there will be bad actors of any religion, and this could be the case with Heath. But also very possible and likely the guy was being genuine with Slate while still making her uncomfortable.
  7. Interesting article that talks a bit more about Baldon's faith and how he and Lively are personalities clashed and probably added to the friction. As someone raised as a Baha'i, I think some of these criticisms are a little over the top, but the "vibes" from some Bahai''s can make some people uncomfortable. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/general-news/justin-baldoni-bahai-blake-lively-legal-feud-1236142565/ EDIT: LOL, Chainsaw. I owe you a Coke.
  8. Inglourious Basterds is a legit classic.
  9. I'm gonna CR this thread. I would bet money there is correlation with not having an internal monologue and the rise of Trumpism and the "success" of right wing disinformation.
  10. I think the problem is you've allowed people from the government - that you say you are skeptical of - to dictate a small part of your beliefs.
  11. This a good post and thought. It seems like you are coming from a perspective of love for humanity. So why not just go all the way with it?
  12. I appreciate you responding on this topic and willing to have a dialogue. But you've allowed a political party to find the needle in the haystack on this issue, one that they've turned into a baseball bat and hammered over people's heads. And you and tens of millions of other people bought into it. These handful of "unfair" instances pale in comparison to the larger issue.
  13. The War on Drugs 2: Electric Chair Boogaloo Time to fill up and build more prisons.
  14. Obsessed with this YouTube channel/creator. This one is like a fever dream.
  15. Instead of fixing our roads and street lights and overall infrastructure, let's help out poor Cal & Hannah.
  16. While we've all generally greed that he's a symptom and not the cause, there is something very specific with Trump and the rise of social media and YouTube as news sources that has decimated people's brains. Without trying to get conspiratorial, it has organically and effectively become a psyop because right wing charlatans found a way to enrich themselves.
  17. Part of my continued interest in this case is seeing if any actual evidence against Baldoni comes out after the initial Lively complaint. I'm open to the facts. But that BlueSky tweet is so disingenuous (and false), I don't even know where to begin. Jacob Levy is a political science professor, why is he chiming in on this Hollywood drama with total BS? So strange.
  18. Do you think Trump stands or sits down when watching Elon artificially inseminate Melania?
  19. He books the guests and actively promotes these POS grifters and pseudo-intellectuals. No quarter. How many times have Eric and Bret Weinstein been on his show? 15 times? More?
  20. You can't spell Auschwitz without it.
  21. Trump, Musk, and Rogan. The three-headed monster of deeply insecure dipshits masquerading as Alphas who have poisoned the American psyche and ripped us apart. Embarrassing.
  22. Lively said the quiet part out loud, which makes it unique IMO. Admitting to the self described "rug pull" at a speaking engagement when it comes to creative control is stupid and shitty. And it definitely has something to do with the Baldoni case, at least in the court of public opinion. His lawyers have released texts that clearly show she was trying to hijack control of It Ends With Us. Now we have an older video where she admits that's her MO when being cast in films. I agree most of this stuff is clickbait, but that was actually a pertinent piece of info.
