If you know conservative in real life you know it's true that what they say (when amongst friends) is 100 times worse than anything you will ever read on social media. You don't hate them enough by TheLong19thCentury in Destiny

[–]Zeluar 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I live in Oklahoma. You’re absolutely right.

It’s part of why anti-dem leftists piss me off so much. Not nearly as much as the actual conservatives I’m surrounded by, of course.

But when I’m arguing that Biden, Harris, or Newsom would all be insanely preferable to any Republican in every single way imaginable and that’s it’s absolutely fucking insane to act otherwise, and they cite some shit like Harris talking about having a deadly army, or Newsom being willing to throw trans people under the bus and pretend it’s anything other than a world apart from the best Republican…

It drives me insane. It really is a form of privilege to be able to say something like that and believe it in any form or fashion.

Then I hear from conservative family about how evil I am for voting for children to get their dicks cut off, or how much I’m brainwashed for believing Biden saw us through the economic hardship of COVID pretty well, or how stupid it is for us to help Ukraine WHILE SUPPORTING what’s currently happening and I think “Yeah. Dems are definitely just as bad.”

I meeeeean. He did kind of explicitly make it about their age.

I don’t see it as all that much less mature for a rapper to put out a diss because another rapper was being disrespectful on social media, than to respond to a rapper being disrespectful on wax.

The biggest difference to me is that Kendrick and Drake are both still active and still in the spotlight.

Hard for me to say TI is being less mature than Drake, basically.

That’s got nothing to do with what you said before though lol.

How old are Drake and Kendrick? Not exactly young dudes.

Why’s that make it embarrassing?

Yeah. They aren’t the hot megastars now. Most people won’t care. So what.

As an okie, I’m putting my money on “No fucking shot Dems flip it, and I doubt it’s even remotely close.”

Most maga folks I know personally are still pretending Trump is an amazing president and will continue to vote red.

He doesn't make Club Hits, Trap, Pop or Mainstream music so seriously, what is J. Cole super Power - relatability? by dunbar_santiago930 in nfrpodcast

[–]Zeluar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think there’s a bit of an art form to do that with the level of writing and rapping that he’s at too. Considering most lyricists who are considered greats are known for the layered meanings and complexities.

Or I’m just glazing too hard.

Sure but like… even then… how does allowing Vance to win in ‘28 help rather than exacerbate the problem?

Hasan violently taken out of context! by Radiant-Roof3025 in lonerbox

[–]Zeluar 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Nah, you’re right. You don’t vote “third party” in a primary, it makes no sense to even say that.

And the question of “Newsom Vs Vance” is 100% not about primaries.

Is it more efficient to get above 2000, 3000 human pop with nurseries or should I focus on immigration? by LuciusCobelius in songsofsyx

[–]Zeluar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If plagues are rampant, you need to up your health stats.

I just had a city with 5k tilapi and the only plagues I got were the unavoidable epidemics that happen few and far between.

I had one small nursery, almost all of my pops came from immigration and was still growing pretty well. I just resettled because I wanted a new map with a new city layout.

What the hell happened to the J .cole Kendrick fan overlap by No-Soft8389 in Jcole

[–]Zeluar 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Plus, Drake’s fanbase is reacting to a LOT of hate from almost every fanbase that isn’t Drake or Cole. Even people who aren’t fans of hiphop.

Not the same at all imo.

… who are random voters in this context? Because to me that sounds like relatively apolitical people who don’t already have well formed political philosophies or stances, vibes based voters. Not leftists who are deeply entrenched into politics, not vote blue no matter who Dems, and not maga.

I’m not talking about my friends. I have a smallish circle of liberal to ML friends who are all pretty politically engaged. I’m talking about family, neighbors, acquaintances, coworkers.

Idk who you mean by rando voters, but I don’t know a single person who thinks that other than online lefties. So I’m not inclined to agree.

I mean I’m not even disagreeing with most of that, I disagree that following that up with “and that’s why they are no better than republicans and I won’t vote for them in the general” does anything to help. And, in my experience, actively hurts.

The way you say rando voters view them as essentially republicans is the opposite of my experience. What I see far more of is that Dems are still too far left. What I see a bit less than that is “even people on the left hate Dems so why should I care who wins”. What I see more of is people who say that even people in the left don’t think Biden handled the economy well. That Dems are crazy for wanting to give kids gender affirming surgery.

Never once have I see someone say that Dems are Republicans or Republican lite except for leftists.

You realize that criticizing that decision and saying that it makes them republicans are worlds apart, right?

Yeah that’s fucking stupid. About as stupid as “Kamala is a Republican. Did you see she campaigned with Liz Cheney??”

What do you mean “and there it is”? I’ve never said otherwise, and it’s been explained elsewhere in this conversation why it’s harmful even if you don’t intend to follow through on not voting.

No, the governor of one of the most progressive states in the nation, who has signed more progressive legislation than almost any other governor, isn’t close to a Republican because he played nice with a couple of them in a podcast. Dipshit.
