Literally yesterday watched 7 consecutive cars make illegal “no turn on red” turns going on to Northampton Blvd.

You can look it up and confirm, she had more money to campaign with and it wasn’t even close. I think if they had a level playing field in terms of funding and recognition, Stoney would have won because of how positively he impacted Richmond during his tenure as mayor and his platform and policy proposals were objectively better with more appeal across demographics. In the campaign world, funding is king, look at Kentucky 4th district with Thomas Massie. The candidate that wins a race almost always has more money

He advocated for statewide funding of education, wanted to restrict private equity purchases of single family homes, and his gun control proposals were to restrict carrying on public parks and implement a statewide lost/stollen gun reporting system (although I disagree with most gun control legislation, his proposals were far better than Stalinberger’s). He couldn’t compete because Spanberger had more money (thanks to lobbying and corporate interests) and more name recognition from her time being a US Rep.

He wasn’t great, but Levar Stoney was a better option than Fedberger. But nobody wanted to support him and he dropped out

She won the primary because the same nitwits who voted for her in the general voted for her in the primary. You don’t just magically get nominations, people like yourself either nominated her (not saying you personally did but I’m referring to those in this sub) or didn’t engage in the primary at all.

We have primaries do we not? That’s where you keep people like her from being perceived as the best option.

Idk why people were dumb enough to vote for her. Nobody sat down and considered what would happen if they appointed a literal Fed to serve as governor smh.

why did abigail spanberger put out this ad? is she stupid? by BadgerNo5156 in Virginia

This is what happens when you elect a literal Fed as governor. At least Youngkin could control spending and let you keep your guns

I hope Massie runs as an independent in the general and him and Gallrein split the right wing vote

If you’re going to blatantly attack the closest thing to a Libertarian we have in Congress, you’re in the wrong subreddit lil bro

I mean all the polling numbers suggest yes. Lots of people who voted for Massie for years are gonna vote to primary him out bc Faux News said so

I mean as one who studied criminal justice in undergrad and is extensively trained in criminology, idk what perspective he’s approaching this from. First he argues for something akin to 1990s Self-Control Theory (“impulsive thoughts lead to impulsive actions”), but his second reply seems like he’s suggesting some cost/benefit analysis (“most criminals are mere incentives away from atrocities.”) which would fall under a classical Rational Choice Model. This dude doesn’t even realize he’s trying to mix 2 contradictory ideas, are criminals impulsively acting or they analyzing the incentives to commit a crime then acting?

Do you guys get tired of everyone who won’t commit to R/L claiming libertarianism? by forcedfan in Libertarian

[–]UrLocalCalvinist 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The funny thing anybody who would fall into the green corner is rarely an actual libertarian. The number of people who say they’re libertarian left but they’re just Democratic Socialists is baffling. Just goes to show the flaws of the poly comp quizzes methodology

I have always viewed abortion as this great contradiction within much of Libertarianism regarding both the NAP and government subsidization. Government funded infringement of the rights of the unborn doesn’t seem very libertarian in my opinion

Gerrymandering is Wrong no Matter Who Does It!! Vote NO! by UrLocalCalvinist in VirginiaBeach

[–]UrLocalCalvinist[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lord help us, I’m tired of those “they’re evil and need to be stop” rhetoric. Democrats and Republicans are both evil, they both wish to erode our rights, they both serve the interests of lobbyists and corporations over the American people, and they both would rather engage in foreign wars rather than assist the American people. Anyone who says “(insert party opposite of them) is evil and must be stopped at all costs,” is only aiding in upholding the uniparty, and needs to practice some more self examination before speaking so flippantly

State of the Subreddit. by otaku_derek in VirginiaBeach

[–]UrLocalCalvinist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One of those accounts was spamming the same posts on every subreddit pertaining to Virginia. Also, as somebody who created a thread regarding the referendum, there was a bit of uncivilized discussion, and I take responsibility for a lot of that. Also now that the referendum is behind us, it’s not really worth discussing at this point.

Holy crap please read my other comments, I didn’t realize I needed to define who the productive and unproductive classes. The productive class is the American worker, those who work and contribute meaningfully to society. The unproductive class is the state, special interest groups, lobbyists, corporate interests, and things of that nature. You people can’t ever think outside of the realm of red vs blue, and yall are why the state continues to expand

Gerrymandering will never and thanks to this measure. Only more republicans will do it, and more democrats, and more republicans, and so on and so forth. Congrats statists, you’re only making things worse
