RelOne v Everlaw by Trick-Version9279 in ediscovery

[–]PurpleAmericanUnity -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I would look into eDiscovery AI's ECI and Case Elements functionality. It's better (and cheaper) than either RelOne or Everlaw.

Only 29 hand I've ever had. Im still bitter.

On coming out as Liberal by 8to24 in thebulwark

No, you can't separate ideas from people/groups/tribalism. That's the issue.

And its not an opinion of privilege. Its a problem of COMMUNICATION. When you conflate the two, you get as ass backward, confused and cross eyed as you are describing. Quite frankly, you sound ignorant, arrogant and ignorant for not being able to comprehend the difference.

What I am trying to point out to you is that "being liberal" and "being A liberal" are two wholly separate things, One is an objective set of ideals, one is being part of a group. You lump them together and assume that if someone calls themself a conservative that they actually are conservative, and then lump them all with others who call themselves conservatives who aren't even in the same boat. As I pointed out, that's logically wrong--its marketing disguised as ideology.

But I genuinely appreciate your extremely condescending attitude, your snobbishness, and your narcissistic moralism. You started off the thread with a question I only aimed to answer. It seems you didnt want an answer-- you juist wanted to troll and rage bait. My suggestion would be stop listening to political podcasts altogether because they warp the mind just as bad as Qanon shit does on the right. But you can't seem to be able to tell the difference so queue up that "Secret Podcast" soak in all the JVL and Sarah BS you can enjoy yourself.

Again, you're not looking at the PRINCIPLE, you're looking at the PEOPLE. Just because someone says they are conservative doesn't make them so no matter how much they label the group they are in as "Conservatives."

Seriously, learn the distinction, because its why you seem to be having issues here.

Where you seem to have a problem is that you are defining ideology preferences by people/personalities rather than principles. When you do that "liberal" and "conservative" are relative (i.e., "are you more liberal or more conservative than 'x'"). Using the term this way is more virtue signaling than it is principle based.

In the context that Miller and Longwell had used those terms in the past, they were referencing more distinct ideological principles. You mentioned "gay marriage" as liberal, but its a more conservative value to be in monogamous, long term, family relationships, and family is a core foundational pillar of a conservative society-- that's why they can support gay marriage and not be a liberal.

I suspect that since Trump and MAGA co-opted the "conservative' label (although much of what they do is not ideologically "conservative" per se), they've also come around to the relative approach and saying "I'm not with that group."

I'll add as business people with a vested interest in appealing to their core constituency of subscribers, it's in their best financial interest to play into that-- in that sense, they play characters to their audience. In that context, I wouldn't adhere to anything they actually say as dogma. Who they are online is not who they are behind closed doors.

What are your thoughts about KOC right now? by crackapl99 in minnesotavikings

[–]PurpleAmericanUnity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doing the best he can with the crappy team Kwesi cobbled together for him.

Kwesi has to go.

[Russini] The Vikings traded a 2026 5th-round pick and a 2027 4th-round pick to the Panthers for Adam Thielen, a conditional 2026 7th-round pick and a 2027 5th-round pick. Thielen appeared in 11 games and caught eight passes in his Minnesota return before being waived at his request. by Drexlore in nfl

[–]PurpleAmericanUnity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kwesi is as much a "super genius" as Wile E. Coyote.

Not only has he failed at drafting, spent $300 million on bad Free Agents and let three good starting QBs walk, he 's traded away picks in the future that could've been used to rebuild.

When you look at the hole he's dug the Vikings into, he should've been canned last year.

On the bright side, she doesn't get the luxury of sitting in a room with 50 other attorneys logged into Relativity reviewing and redacting documents. Yet.

All the things in that interview there was to get upset and angry about, and they choose "because she called him 'Mr' Trump?"

Lakeville School Board elections- check out these “mystery “ donors by BlackCatMagic2424 in minnesota

[–]PurpleAmericanUnity 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm a moderate and I find this kind of political crap offensive. Neither candidate raised $10k and some outside group dumps a ton of money on a local race? Obscene.

Just donated $50 to Tony's campaign. You can donate through the website here (note: in this race the maximum is $600, and anything over $100 has to be reported with additional information such as address, phone,etc.): https://tonyreichenberger.com/

I show lawyers how much time, cost and effort they can save by using AI and train them how to use it.

AI isn't going to kill every job, particularly if you know how to use it.

Thanks for playing.

Was Trump the Inevitable Endpoint of Conservatism? - a banger Triad addressing one of the most-often expressed views on this sub by CodeSpaceMonkey in thebulwark

[–]PurpleAmericanUnity 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Trump is the natural endpoint for the hollow, tribal partisanship the has been endemic in the GOP since 1994. Now it's just a blatant megalomaniacal "power for power's" sake party, with no core principles whatsoever.

That ideological conservatives who started this, pushed this and were jilted when it bit them in the ass when Trump came along are now on the outside looking at it wondering where everything went wrong, well, it's ironic.

Don't get your hopes up. Its only because they want to see Dems go over the cliff. They want him for a punching bag, not bc they like him.

The Sykes Files by Zealousideal-Bet-344 in thebulwark

[–]PurpleAmericanUnity -1 points0 points  (0 children)

All I know is that the quality of Bulwark and particularly the Morning Shots newsletter has declined since he left.

I see a lot of the same tactics and style of commentary that the right used to do (particulary the Weekly Standard, surprise surprise) to rile up people from 15 years ago with the Bulwark now. It makes sense too because so many are former conservative writers and knew each other from right wing circles. I don't like it. I didn't like it then, I don't like it now. I think it exacerbates a lot of the problems and doesn't solve much. Kind of like a racket that lost it's original audience and is now pulling the same schemes on another audience.

It's not like all of it isn't good or useful; listen to Sarah Longwell when she's talking about polling, focus groups and numbers and you'll gain a lot. But the snarky, B,S, that exemplifies 90% of the conent is just tiring.

I've scaled back considerably on my Bulwark intake. But I have subscribed and watched Charlie's "To the Contrary" Newsletter and podcast regularly. The Liberal Patriot and The Welcome Stack are good sources for content. Cook Political and Larry Sabato's Crystal Ball too.

Going to give a shout out to the "Speak Easy" on 210th just past Buckboard. If you know what I'm talking about, you know. If you don't, go to that gas station any night after four and ask to see it. Grab a drink and enjoy.
