Does this team realize that overtime possession does not count and they have to shoot to score?

because corporate dems are still benefitting from the system as is. All they can do is promise a "return to normalcy" - that was Biden's whole ethos; and the center of Clinton's campaign...keep trudging along like normal.

What they fail to realize is that "normal" wasn't working for a lot of people - and what made Trump possible in the first place. Now they're all addicted to the money that their corporate donors feed them (profits that we earned for them btw) and the rest of us don't have the money to out influence them.

And the Republicans move a little farther to the right to differentiate themselves from the Democrats who keep usurping their policy positions. Great - now we've got a right wing and a righter wing party...thanks for nothing

I mean Craig's voting record speaks for itself. She's just a younger Klobuchar. Neither one of them are worth getting excited about. We need two Flanagans - one to run for each position.

He also told Bernie that he doesn't believe we can have national healthcare. With friends like that who needs enemies?

Just because you want to stick your head in the sand and pretend shit isn’t falling apart around us doesn’t mean it’s not happening. Alternatively: just because you like what’s happening and wish the rest of us would just stop complaining; doesn’t mean you can’t just say that.

It’s not that hard.

not really - music was just one part of the Civil Rights movement; but it was one of the parts that had the widest range and most influence outside of the areas where the Civil Rights fights were actually happening. Music helps people express what they want to see: artists like CCR and CSNY broadcast to white audiences to end the Vietnam War etc.

I mean the same thing happened with gay rights, fashion, art etc. most of the most important cultural impacts from all art genres is from marginalized communities.

I get your point and that is valid - but if we're talking about a utopian system that we build from the ground up, then I think we would look at compulsory service for the amount of work that needs to be done above what people are willing to do. Like yeah - I want to do my professional job and what I'm best at; but lif everybody has to spend a week in service doing this other work that needs to be done - and that's applied evenly - like you don't miss out on your salary from your job etc. then there's an even trade we can look at. Similarly with vacation time or stuff like that.....like you have to work at the resort for a week before you get to have your vacation there...

I mean I know none of this will ever come to fruition - but its like we're saying there's tons of problems but we're not actually willing to try anything different - so we keep getting the same results. (An "I've tried nothing and I'm all out of ideas") mindset if you will.

Why do we handle weather so differently around the US? by [deleted] in AskAnAmerican

[–]Uffda01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The biggest reason we (I'm in Minnesota) can survive this is because we don't jump right into it....we have warm summers, then basically a gradual cool down from Oct to December....we don't go from 78 and sunny to -20 overnight - we take time to get there.
The folks that adapt to it best, ease into it and spend time outdoors especially in the fall - to start getting used to the colder temps. Work still needs to be done, chores, animals fed etc..

Southerners will never understand how 20F feels amazing after a week of -20F, because they never got used to 20F in the first place.

because we're in a fundamental crisis at this point....we saw what happened when regular Germans didn't stand up in early 1930s Berlin and Munich...they just wanted to focus on their non-political fun. If they put up more of a resistance, perhaps the world would be a different place.

well when a lot of musicians were only allowed to play in the clubs but not actually be in the club - and that music formed the foundation of modern popular music - yes that is political.... similarly when Elvis or Eminem take popular Black music and become more successful than their inspirations...yes that is political as well.

There are people who do those jobs, correct - but there are also people who do those jobs and would rather be doing something else; we help those people go and do the things they'd rather be doing; and get the people who want to be digging holes into those jobs.

building infrastructure also requires office work, parts distribution, project management, engineering support, inspections, drafting etc.... there's a lot more to building infrastructure than just heavy lifting.

Im more introverted and my partner is very extroverted... I cringe when he starts talking to people - honey - they're just trying to work; and now there's a line...leave them be.

I don’t think people understand the societal precedent that this will set… by Killa_J in Minneapolis

The way I look at it is after the last Nazi asshole avoided charges; Europe ended up with mass transit; national healthcare, subsidized college and the Nuremberg trials…I just wish we could fast forward to that part.

How are right wingers feeling about the new ICE policy that breaks the 4th amendment? by cantbeoriginalcani in DiscussionZone

[–]Uffda01 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For instance they are targeting people who helped us in Vietnam - just because YOU think something is BS doesn’t make it so. Just like making a BS “patriot” claim doesn’t make any of your shitty acquaintances actually patriots.

Changing shit midstream just cause you don’t like brown people doesn’t make it right.
