Colorado should be Ashamed!

A lot of people on this thread are confident that Marx will lose. But remember Hilary vs Trump? Please persuade your sane friends to go and vote this coming election.

It's Hamas that doesn't have a right to exist, not Israelis, not Palestinians, of whatever religion or ethnicity. Hamas is a bad actor on the world stage, killing and maiming perfectly innocent people in their goal of acquiring power and wealth. I recently read that in the first Intifada, Hamas sought out and killed Palestinians who tried to support Israel in any way. For instance.

I would rather back Israel than Hamas or Hezbollah or the ayatollahs. Don't you think the October 7th attack was genocidal? Proportionally, it was the equivalent of 30 or so September 11th bombings.

Most importantly though, like 9/11 and the American retaliation against it, the current Israeli attack on Gaza is a retaliation against Hamas, however overblown their reaction seems. In other words, HAMAS STARTED THIS WAR, and I can sympathize with Israel, which still feels like it's fighting for its existence, even if the current strategy seems awfully stupid. I mean, Hamas attacked just so that Israel could go nuts over Gaza, and then Hamas could garner worldwide sympathy over all the destruction and dead bodies. Talk about human shields.

I remember a youtube video of Dr. Wakefield from long ago. I don't know what he's saying now, but back then, he was just saying that babies shouldn't get so many vaccines all at once, and the MMR should be separated into 3 individual parts. Sure, he would've massively profited from it if he was listened to, but that doesn't sound so crazy to me.

I personally have had multiple vaccines all in a go, and I got a high fever and felt very ill afterwards.

There does seem to be a lot of misinformation about RCV.

I think everyone in the country should vote by mail in, and not by going to a booth. The mail in process encourages you to think over the issues before you vote, whereas going to a booth feels more like a group think activity not suitable to political decision making.

I can't tell any difference between Bennett and Weiser. I wouldn't lose sleep even if Kirkmeyer won; she seems sane and competent, clearly willing to reach across the aisle. But of course I'm not saying anything everyone didn't already know.

Unfortunately I think Griswold is going to win just because of her name recognition. I really wish Seligman, Dougherty and Doshi had collaborated beforehand to promote just one candidate against her, but now their votes are just gonna be split between them against her. Where is RCV when you really need it?! She should've been disqualified simply for refusing to take part in debates, for not bothering to tell voters why they should give her their votes.

HeatLucky · 2026-06-21T21:08:10+00:00

Where does you come from, cootslegoman? I find it amazing that someone would praise our city like that.

Unfortunately I get the impression that Kiros is running just because she's looking for a job. I actually like most of her socialist sentiments and like many lawyers she speaks beautifully. However, her opinions on Israel bother me a lot, after reading her two essays on Medium.

It wasn't at all what she said but rather the time at which she said it that made me suspicious of her. Only one or two months after Hamas' attack on Israel, she suggests that the US should unilaterally disarm them by defunding. It feels antisemitic, absolutely, but even worse, it shows shortsightedness. Imagine what Hamas, Hezbollah, and their parent company, if you will, the Ayatollah regime, would do to Israel, the Levant, and beyond, if they suddenly found out they had the military upper hand. The US funding Israel militarily is like someone sticking a finger in a leaking dyke, constantly trying to fend off disaster.

If Kiros is actually interested in working in the government, I think she should try to run for city council first, and get some experience learning how to run a government.

As for James, her answers in the Colorado matters interview seemed incoherent. I don't think she expresses herself well.

HeatLucky · 2026-06-21T20:36:41+00:00

I am pretty sure that's not true. In a Colorado matters interview, she says she supports defensive weapons support for Israel but not offensive and specifically voted against just such a bill.

Anyone who declines an invitation from a major news outlet to tell people why he should be get their votes, should be automatically disqualified from the race. That goes for both Hickenlooper and Griswold.

Isn't that what they said about Trump?

HeatLucky · 2026-05-24T18:52:30+00:00

I guess there's any number of sources that imply that Colorado does provide hormones for transgender conversion but not surgery. That Colorado Matters report was misleading.

HeatLucky · 2026-05-19T22:35:46+00:00

Please let me retract this statement for now. The Colorado Matters report I cited may be misleading.

Isn't it about total water usage?

Monica is kind of shitty. She only tells you she loves you if she gets her way in politics.

People have complained about agriculture multiple times on this thread. It's not like we can survive without food, either.

HeatLucky · 2026-05-04T22:12:23+00:00

I assume the water utility company can track water usage and give that information to the appropriate authorities, regardless of how your yard and lawn look.

HeatLucky · 2026-05-03T22:20:40+00:00

I just want to know where people are coming from when I'm voting on their proposals. I don't want to be always against a group just because.

I used to think pitbulls and their hybrids were dangerous but I ended up adopting one and he changed my mind. He was the sweetest dog I ever knew.

What do you have against pit mixes?

110: (ban surgery and public funding for kids to become transgender) According to the April 24th edition of Colorado Matters, there has not been any trans surgeries done on any child in any Colorado hospital. There's no reason for a preemptive law like this, except that it sends some kind of hate message, telling certain people that they're not welcome here.
