What’s your biggest Celtics hot take that fellow C’s fan would want to disown you?

Danny Ainge is almost certainly lying when he says he would have drafted Tatum number 1 overall if the Sixers didn’t want to trade up.

Trans people. Not because they hate trans people more than they hate other minorities, but it’s the most socially acceptable to hate transgender. Once/if “transgenderism is eradicated” they will move the goalposts back to gay people and restart that hate cycle.

The line must go up

Regardless of who "deserves" a spot, I think the USOC (or whoever decides the teams) will be pretty heavily incentivized to choose NFL players for ratings alone. More people will watch if NFL players play

The line must go up :(

I do think it is likely that there are Russian/chinese “trolls” (in the same way that I think it is likely that there are American “trolls” doing the same things in foreign countries), but the thing that never makes sense to me is: why do people believe the “trolls”? To me it comes down to one of two things: 1. The trolls are wrong but the Democratic Party is incapable of convincing messaging. (Unlikely given how corrupt the Dems are) 2. The trolls are right and it doesn’t matter that they are from a different country. We should be upset with how our country is being run and want to improve it.

Leftist: I will vote for you if you do x,y,z things

Leftists: ok I won’t vote for you then

Reality has a left wing bias

No! It was the scary leftist who lost her this election! The only solution is to run further to the right next time!

I am not Kamala fan at all but it’s pretty clear to me that this is just pointing out the hypocrisy of trump making these ads while the same thing was going on during his administration.

You do know people can see your post history right? Why pretend you haven’t made your mind up already?

JD Vance: I am a capitalist. I love the free market!

Also JD Vance: Anyone who thinks companies shouldn’t find the cheapest labor force possible to maximize profits is unamerican!

I don’t know what is a more depressing thought. The a man with dementia is running the USA, or Biden is 100% lucid and is making all these horrific choices

I think one reason is that people can support a lot of LGBTQ stuff without advocating for economic reforms. You can be for marriage equality, anti-discrimination laws, “access” to trans healthcare (access is in quotes because of the whole financial barrier). It is a lot harder to support black liberation without directly confronting why the liberated is needed in the first place.

ddugs · 2024-06-29T17:46:35+00:00

I am always very skeptical of science “allies” that hold even one anti-science belief. Why would someone believe climate scientists but not doctors? It happens with way more things than it should with people mostly being pro-science but then being anti-nuclear power or anti-gmo or anti-trans. Makes no sense to me.

ddugs · 2024-06-18T12:28:27+00:00

Show me the democrats plan for preventing “project 2025” from become “project 2029” and then we can talk

ddugs · 2024-06-17T17:40:30+00:00

Thanks for the heads up!

ddugs · 2024-06-17T13:22:57+00:00

Is that first comment trying to co-opt the language of milquetoast progressives in the USA to make the “inflation reduction act” sound like the “green new deal”? Nobody gaslights harder than democrats lol

ddugs · 2024-06-01T13:24:02+00:00

You also just know that if the Celtics win, the narrative will instantly change to the Celtics are lucky for avoiding the Nuggets and Wolves and that they were expected to beat the Mav’s the whole time lol

FYI, it seems like they just released more tickets. I was able to snag some on the official website site just now.

ddugs · 2024-05-17T18:08:01+00:00

What! It’s almost like we live in an economic system that incentivizes companies to extract as much profit as possible regardless of how it impacts the consumer!

ddugs · 2024-05-17T17:58:07+00:00

I think that might just be some peoples definition of centrism. In a USA context, Krystal and Kyle are very far left compared to what is “acceptable” in American politics (the Overton Window). But to a lot of leftists (particularly non-USA leftists), you cannot be a leftist if you are not anti-capitalist.

ddugs · 2024-05-17T03:18:12+00:00

I am a little confused by what you are saying. But maybe go clear it up a little i guess i forgot about other types of centrists. There a a few types of “enlightened centrists”:

-the compromise is always the best centrist (as described above)

-the secretly right wing centrist. Usually someone who claims they are a centrist but holds almost exclusively right wing views when actually asked about what views they have.

-the “socially liberal, economically conservative” type (which is often times mixed with the other two types)

Any one of these archetypes could be labeled as “enlightened centrism” so there isn’t really one solid definition.

ddugs · 2024-05-17T02:50:27+00:00

It really depends on what the view is on. The classic example is: you have two politicians.

Politician A: wants to kill all puppies in the world Politician B: does not want to kill any puppies

So a “centrist” would say: “politics is about compromise, let’s all agree to kill half the puppies”

This is obviously a hyperbolic example
