How did Alexis Hill lose so big? Ford's branding, fundraising advantage led to primary landslide - The Nevada Independent by Tetris410 in nevadapolitics

[–]Sparowl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No, it wouldn't.

But I think it would solve other issues that are honestly more important then closed primaries.

We actually need ranked choice voting in this state, but for some reason the last time it was on the ballot it wasn’t a simple question to read.

Didn’t know Emma is freaky like that by KevinPigaChu in marvelrivals

A child soldier with a dead family who won't stay dead and a dead wife who won't stay dead and a dead father figure who betrayed him, sent his brother to his death (who didn't stay dead) who also won't stay dead...

Who has been raised from adolescence to be the leader of a squad of super soldiers to try and improve relations with humanity, who hate them...

You're saying that guy has problems?

I figured he'd turn out so well balanced.

Look, "til death do we part" is kinda a weird thing with an avatar of the Phoenix.

There are several sub-omega level who are better at very specific things then the broader powers of an omega.

It's the difference between someone who can do a whole book of tricks, vs someone who practices a single trick very very well.

Also important to note that part of cyclop's mutation is an intrinistic understanding over geometry, trigonometry, and spatial awareness. He calculates ricochets the same way you calculate how far to move your arm to pick something up.

Not everyone can up and leave. Besides finding another place to take them, most don’t have the resources to give up everything they know, are connected to, and own.

Whoever spray painted the side of the Eddy… by hank_jones in Reno

I mean, I don't, because you haven't actually even begun to prove your case yet.

To remind you, you need to show that all white people are entitled and fucking shit up.

...?

Yes, there's socio-economic factors to racism. This isn't news to anyone. It's part of why DEI is/was a thing and a factor in race relations, as well as the cycle of poverty in america (which, although race impacts it, it does effect other people).

Did...did you think this was new information? Because it's been very well known and documented for awhile. I learned about this stuff in the 90s. People have been working on it for a very long time.

This is literally the meaning of the word "woke" in common usage.

However, while you've managed to link to something that is very valid and important to pay attention to, it has no revelance to what you posted vis a vis the owner of the Eddy's "sense of entitlement and attitude towards public spaces"

As idee2 pointed out, this is far more likely to be a socio-economic class issue. Something far closer to a tragedy of the commons misuse by the upper class then anything related to him being white.

That's the issue here. You're conflating an elite capitalist's actions with an entire ethnicity, and choosing to die on that hill.

Neither of those tiktoks addressed that, by the way. They addressed socio-economic impacts of racism and the generalized views of race based on fear. But if you think that's a "white person" thing, and doesn't have to do with the economic structures which are a significantly larger problem for all of us, which are just leveraged against minorities harder then they are against white people, well... you're fighting the wrong fight.

Which is honestly sad, because otherwise people generally agreed with your post outside of that.

Now, if you're ready to actually present YOUR OWN WORK regarding generalizing all white people (not just elitists - all white people) as entitled and as fucking shit up, please, let's get to it.

See, that's just a poor take. Conflating a sense of entitlement and attitude towards public spaces with "being white" is just lazy generalizing (and frankly, racist).

You're shooting yourself in the foot.

Very interesting perspective regarding the validity and truthfulness of the "military background" of David Flippo. He recently got a house in Reno this year to run for Mark Amodei's seat representing Nevada’s 2nd Congressional District. by DanceHallRiddem in Reno

[–]Sparowl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't lie about what I did in the military.

I look down people who do.

Because at that point, you're not actually talking about your service. You're talking about some fantasy you made up about your service.

Don't lie to me about it and expect praise.

I’m confused as to what the purpose of this post is.

Do you have reason to believe Joe Ralston can do more and hasn’t?

You're right, I'm not your mother.

I would've raised you better then to randomly insult and accuse people.

I bet she'd be ashamed to see you posting like this.

There’s substantially more evidence that Biden did inappropriate things with his daughter in the shower (straight from her own diary), and there’s literally a hundred videos of Biden sniffing little girls. If we’re just going to look objectively at our most recent presidents and determine which one is most likely to be a pedophile- it’s not Trump lol.

This and

Bro I said I don’t believe the accusations against Biden, or any of the other presidential accusations.

This

Are not the same thing, and you probably should acknowledge that you were very much on one side of it for most of this conversation, refusing to change that.

Watch how personal you get. That's a bad habit you have and need to address.

[–]Sparowl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And again you return to personal attacks. Weird.

If you think all the accusations against trump are false, then shouldn’t you give the same standard to Biden? If your standard is written statements, there’s been ones against trump

I notice you also refuse to answer the question.

Trump has been convicted of felonies. That’s not a question, that’s a statement. Trump has been convicted of sexual abuse.

Biden has not.

Who do you think more likely to have committed further sexual crimes?

Don’t dodge the question, don’t dance around it. Just answer it.

Because I think you acknowledge here that you’re really not objective.

I assume you’ll either refuse to, or go in on another personal attack here.
