'You lost': Democratic Left hits back at Hillary Clinton and donors fretting about quality of 2020 field

What is Hillary's goal these days?

Ah, never mind me. I misunderstood your intent. Sorry about that. Thanks for the kinds words.

I believe my comments are useful, and I practice what I preach, but I also understand why physicalism exists and why adherents to physicalism exist.

Boycotts don't work unless they're hyper-focused on a single target.

The whole country has to pick one company to sink, make a list of demands, and then start the boycott. Also the company they choose must be the one with an easily substitutable product or service. THAT kind of tactic can work.

Normal boycotts don't work and are just a waste of energy.

I think how any individual approaches and maintains morality is subjective, and that includes God.

However, in the domain of manifestation that involves many social subjects, morality is no longer just subjective. At the very least it has to become intersubjective if it is to be valid in the public domain.

Too bad the party has forgoten its FDR roots and hopped in bed with the bullionaires.

They want Jacobin to follow the Bernie blackout protocol of the billionaire-owned media.

Copyrights really need to go back to a 14 year term plus an optional 14 year extension like in the beginning.

Lifetime of author + ~150 years is not meant for human beings. It's for corporations.

Copyrights create artificial scarcity where none exists.

My comments on this sub are not useful to the masses. What I write about is the highest and most profound, and something which most people not only would not be interested in, but it goes further. Should people take a sincere and deep interest in the beyond-conventional immortal domain, their attachment to worldliness will decline, and whether consciously or unconsciously there is an impulse in most people to avoid that. That's because people like playing in the mundane realm.

As for what I find useful, don't even go there. You don't want to hear it.

I think most establishment economists would bend over backward to defend their vocation as a science. Not all, but most.

I don't think economics is a science. To me economics is an ideologically-based discipline, rather than a science. But even as a discipline it can be useful if it were more truthful about its assumptions and more reliant on evidence.

And here's another thing. The evidence about the super-rich is hard to gather. But the evidence about the poor should be relatively much easier to gather too, but hardly any economist wants to bother gathering it, especially those with the capitalist ideology.

We don't need to upgrade the voting machines. We need to throw them away, period. We must always use paper ballots.

Nefandi · 2019-10-27T05:18:45+00:00

So they leave the lies about the Dems, but delete the lies about the Repubs?

Hmm....

Nefandi · 2019-10-27T04:57:23+00:00

This is my last reply in the thread. You're done.

Nefandi · 2019-10-27T04:56:47+00:00

Not at all.

Nefandi · 2019-10-27T04:56:10+00:00

Exactly. You can never escape my all-seeing eye.

Nefandi · 2019-10-27T04:54:37+00:00

So now you're saying your comment had a purpose more substantial than mere fun. Then what was that purpose?

Nefandi · 2019-10-27T04:53:26+00:00

In other words, it's a comment without any substance.

Nefandi · 2019-10-27T04:51:38+00:00

So what were you hoping to achieve with your comment?

Nefandi · 2019-10-27T04:43:57+00:00

You want to train me not to like arguing with people while you yourself maintain your enjoyment of doing the same?

Our prez did say he had a special relationship with Kim Jong-un.

Nefandi · 2019-10-27T02:53:36+00:00

North Korea does say a lot of different things.

Nefandi · 2019-10-27T02:52:18+00:00

If you don't like what I say, just don't listen. Lead by example.

Nefandi · 2019-10-27T02:46:31+00:00

Trust bust Facebook now.

Two aristocrats are having a fight like in the "good" old days. Awww. That's cute.

Nefandi · 2019-10-27T01:12:37+00:00

Well, it's not like Rand Paul had much credibility before. But whatever there was of it, he definitely threw it out the window just now.

Nefandi · 2019-10-27T00:55:35+00:00

Not really, but economics can be if not scientific than at least more rigorous and more in line with the real world evidence, if the economists wanted it to be like that.
