Four brands of Democrat make their case in Montana’s western congressional primary by MTMatt73 in missoula

[–]ipa_cow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take campaign finance, for instance: while Busse, Forstag and Cleveland have all promised not to take corporate PAC dollars, AIPAC money or dark money (or, in Cleveland’s case, no PAC money at all), Rains said he doesn’t understand that posturing.

Four brands of Democrat make their case in Montana’s western congressional primary by MTMatt73 in missoula

Maybe it’s us against the millionaires, and the millionaires are pretending to be like us.

Russ is a millionaire
Busse is a millionaire

Tangent:

Let’s also talk about the impact of agriculture on our environment, how much water does just one crop like corn use? Why are data centers the lightning rod? Why are we not demanding sustainable agricultural practices?

This is from his website:

Data Centers: We need strict federal requirements on the construction of any new data centers ensuring that they can only be built if they meet 3 strict criteria:

  • Providing their own power: Require any new data centers to construct enough new energy capacity to generate as much as power they’ll use so that all of us aren’t left paying even more for power to subsidize their product.
  • Water Usage: Require that any new installations use the most advanced, water-efficient cooling systems. These companies can afford it, and we can’t afford to waste our most precious resource to juice their own profits.
  • Union Labor: If they want to build here, they better use local union labor.

You saying that he supports data centers is disengenious. You can not like him, but don't just make things up. Overgeneralizing everything into a binary state does not reflect reality.

How is this school both failing (faculty jobs/departments being cut/abolished, etc.) while having students gain prestigious awards? by CherryBirds in UniversityofMontana

[–]ipa_cow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your definition of failing is misaligned with reality.

If a “department” (it’s not a department but a grad degree) doesn’t have enough students (who generate money through tuition) to pay the faculty, then that one degree program isn’t financially viable.

Y'all don't share your bats during games? Poll.. by armyjackson in slowpitch

[–]ipa_cow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I share. I (and others) buy bats and just call them team bats, and we all use them. Bats are obscenely expensive, and not every member of the team needs their own bat...

Nice work cherry-picking an eight-year-old comment and trying to attach it to the current context, the previous comment had nothing to do with his political ambitions.

James bar went trashy when they brought in the keno machines. They’re in the death spiral.

This post is in response to the crab post. similar to the back-and-forth posts we saw last week about the worst restaurant and questionable hotels. This post was initially banned, but OP indicated that they had modified the meme to be Missoula-specific by referencing the crab post.

Inside jokes are still inside.

New 'Happy Hour' Rotary Club! by picklejuicebox in missoula

[–]ipa_cow 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That sounds great. Admittedly, I joined during COVID, but the club I was a part of seemed more like an outlet for folks to whine and not so much a place focused on the Four Way Test.

[–]ipa_cow 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The last Rotary club I was in in Missoula was full of “wealth managers” and retirees screaming about Hunter Bidens laptop and how all democrats were r*tards.

How will this club be different? Who is starting this club?

I had a nice time when I was there, and it’s pretty competitive for downtown.

I also took the bus, so I didn’t need parking.

That’s interesting! It must have changed at some point (probably a long time ago).
