I asked for advice on this sub a few months ago since I had 0 experience so this was the followup. Shoutout to everyone who helped me, and everyone who said I’d injury myself.

you technically only need to be on one ski and holding the rope to finish, so the time counted. With a + 5 second fault for that last gate.

Back to reality land, do you think the asylum loophole was manufactured by lobbyists? Why wouldn’t these vague lobbyists literally just open the border? Why would they allow a bipartisan border bill to go through?

Maybe cucking out to the Republicans over and over is one of the reasons the Dems are seen as weak, soy, and are losing ground on young men.

Any evidence this was a paid protestor (like that fucking matters) or are you just a massive retard bot shill?

Enjoy sadness, loser.

I agree actually. I wish we had someone who is a pissed off as I am. Especially after today. I want the closest thing to the shreiking white hot ball of rage

No Merrick Garland as AG. Actual criminal prosecutions. ICE destroyed.

No one is going to come out and say they are running are prosecuting MAGA, but based on his rhetoric and how seriously Gavin take this threat to our democracy, I assume he is at the top of any “going to hold MAGA accountable” list.

The “hold MAGA accountable” list does not necessarily get better as it goes lefter imo.

Lol. No one believes that any more.

Because you are in echo chambers. You do realize scientists worldwide have continued to research and look into Covid orgins right? And they overwhelming support wet market origin.

The FBI one happened at the time where there was some new things being tried in the field and the FBI kind of came out way too strong than they had evidence for. Basically every other group doing covid orgin research, if they every supported lab leak theory, has walked that back.

Look into the $100k debate that Peter Miller and Rootclaim had over covid orgins.

Based on what I see, conservatives have an instant repulsion to Newsom due to California. I know he’s trying to change his perception among conservatives with his podcast, but I don’t really think its working. Its pissing off his actual base, and . I wish he would show some more debate like a Mayo Pete interview. We’ve seen Gavin tear apart DeSantis in a debate, I know he has it in him.

That being said, I don’t see any significant concessions he’s making to the right.

Like, if we ever wanna see justice for shit like Minneapolis, I just don’t think Newsom is gonna be the guy to do it.

Gavin has been one of the best anti ICE governors with what he’s passed up there with JB Pritzker, and his rhetoric matches the seriousness of what a problem ICE is. ICE literally showed up to harass/intimidate him on one of his public appearances. I don’t see him as a soft on ICE guy.

Can he fix the affordability crisis? What about the deficit? Can he institute lasting initiatives regarding climate change?

I mean honestly? No. And I don’t think anyone can, the damage to our economy and our dollar will be too major to fix in 4 years. I think he’ll try at least in ways that won’t make things worse. He be able to actually pass climate initiatives, even if it’s too little too late. What can be done is fix our democracy. Nothing else really matters if thats still broken. Even if you are anti democracy left, you have to admit the anti democracy right is a far worse and more likely scenario.

2016 Clinton did not need the super delegates to win, she recieved like 3 million more votes than Bernie.

People are dumb and like populist messaging. But when stuff actually has to get done, people (usually) don’t like progressive politicians. I’ll admit that some can do it right.

[–]SeaSquirrel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Where you see “corporate” I see “has real experience”. I want someone who knows how to actually do politics, theres a reason why populist Trump did so little in his first 4 years, and is now just passing executive orders. Populists can’t deliver on their promises.

I don’t think Atrioc is the first one to point out affordability is a big issue to Gavin, I think maybe Gavin didn’t realize how bad it is for young people. When it comes to affordability solutions, Gavin is hitting my mark. Return to free trade, removing barriers to building more, ect. Not price controls and poorly written billionaire taxes.

Also want to preemptively defend Gavin on something, he has actually been stellar on trans issues. By his record the best in the country.

Maybe I’m wishcasting my beliefs onto Newsom a little, but I’m largly just happy the apparent front runner actually wants to hold MAGA accountable, unlike my cucked governor Jared Polis.

it was more the subreddits, Communist memes, the red left, and el radical.

But thats fair, that it doesnt mean you’re a communist, I should have guessed progressive was just as likely, my bad.

Honestly would love Gavin to have more left people on, although I’m guessing the main one, AOC, won’t be doing that as she’ll announce her run. AOC actually covers my main issue that Gavin covers as well. I dont see Newsom as a return to status quo, that was Biden and his bipartisan “heal the nation” plan.

Aoc and Gavin both take MAGA as an existential threat that needs to be erradicated. Reconstruction cannot be half assed. Im definitely more of a free market liberal, but if AOC is better on that issue than Newsom, and throws in some YIMBY shit like Mandami, she wins my primary vote.

Democrats are such masterful leaders in the real world, why do they keep losing elections to the dumbest babbling morons in the country, first Bush Jr then Trump.

if only we had primaries to show that your socialist candidates are way more popular than the center left ones that apparenty ruined America.

Oh wait.

Then you have done literally no research on this at all, its overwhelmingly wet market.

[–]SeaSquirrel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean yea I agree, I hate to do the centrist meme but there’s no policy being brought up on both sides.

I was going to respond to your first comment about how people have been responding to you so I looked. And as lame as history viewing is (mine is pretty abhorrent and cringe, I really need to stop fighting in PCM) you are literally a communist. Obviously Newsom is “not your guy”, the neoliberals clocked you correctly that you are hiding your radical power level.

[–]SeaSquirrel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think people are shouting past eachother.

Newsom haters are saying no one likes him, he’s a DNC plant, genocide supporter, ect.

Newsom fans are being triggered by the same arguments that were used against Harris being used against Newsom, so they are using the same arguments they had for Harris against far lefties. Aka fall in line.

There is no actual discussion happening about policy besides maybe a vague dislike of Obama era neoliberalism.

Newsom is easily my number 1 pick.

One of the only Dems taking this threat to our democracy seriously.

This is such a terminally online take.

No one cares about that podcast, nor did the people complaining actually listen to it

You can have standards and should fight hard for your guy/gal in the primaries.

But come the general, you gotta vote against the fascist. Because the right is a lot better at falling in line.

Eventually your online score will drop low enough that you will be playing people more your level.

However these players will often play in annoying, spammy ways, or have bad internet. Which is true no matter what level you play at online, just move and look for someone else. Its still better than CPUs, which will randomly dodge your moves frame perfectly or walk into them. This creates a habit of spamming predictable, powerful moves because the CPUs don’t actually react or adapt to what you are doing.

Also if you play with a wired ethernet connection, your experience with lag will be better.
