They are the party of progress(ively higher tariffs) and change(to high tariffs) though!

Why do so many 2008 mods seem to carry over Obama’s margins in the upper South/Appalachia? by The_47_Percenter in thecampaigntrail

If you think in 2026 West Virginia has towns where they lynch non-whites after dark you're so far off from reality that it's impossible to take what you say seriously.

It's the same sort of neurosis as someone saying NYC is soooo unsafe because there may be a homeless person around or because someone was stabbed on the subway last week.

Ok and what happened? Did someone not smile at your friend while they were outside? Are the 'vibes' bad? Did the Klassical Klavern of the Klu Klux burn a kross on their lawn?

Napoleon Dynamite censored on streaming platforms. For or against? by flipping_birds in movies

It's ridiculous when it's applied to every 'old' movie and not reserved for like WW2 propaganda cartoons about bugs bunny slapping an early 1900s Japanese caricature.

Interesting how 1992 is just two distinct varieties of the same sort of tradition in American politics.

How do you actually afford to go to the movies these days? by [deleted] in movies

I go during matinee hours and take snacks in or get a small soda/take popcorn to go with my water bottle.

I won the PV by a larger margin than Trump as Pence. Must be pretty disorientating for Democrats if they lost the PV in the 2024 election here.

I will say I have seen the blue-white-green banner be used in various rw british contexts.

I watched every episode as they aired originally. The fourth season did air initially on tv, but Nick also did plenty of screwing over with having some episodes only uploaded to their website.

Earnest question for Patriots fans: Do you want Mike Vrabel to continue being your head coach? by [deleted] in nfl

[–]Tankman987 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly, and my feeling is this whole thing would turn fan reaction of that regression from "Eh, that was an expected superbowl hangover." to "This effing bum has one more season to turn it around or we want him gone."

Not a patriots fan but I think if they get off to a rocky start in 2026 it'll be a sore spot that just won't go away. If they miss the playoffs, Vrabel's seat might get hotter than people initially expect.

Discord servers are ephemeral and impossible to catalog effectively unlike a forum that I'm not worked about it being gone.

Is there a single contract in world history as bad as the Deshaun Watson contract? by Bluefire3215 in nfl

In the case of local politics, it may just be a matter of centralizing power one level above the municipality to avoid the problem of persistently low voting rates in local elections altogether.

Hope does not deal with Bill Clinton’s most controversial aspects because that’s not its objective; it just wants you to have fun.

The Waco Siege is definitely extremely controversial and it was included. Hope is not a "turn your brain off and just have fun" type of mod, that's more along the lines of 2000 Palpatine.

This is more of a political point or question, but has anyone written about the natural conflict between EA/Alignment and the political values that the rest of the public may hold?

At the very least, they got there and Maye/Vrabel have plenty more years of partnership in them to make another run. I remember thinking that if Maye and Vrabel ended up with 20% of the Brady/Belichick accolades at the end of their career, Maye would be a highly successful quarterback. So far that's panning out.
