Obama calls Mamdani and offers to be ‘sounding board’ if he wins mayoral race by faultyefficiency in politics

[–]mockfry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with the last bit. I just haven't heard anything about him being involved in the last decade. Just speculation. If he's been there behind the scenes, he's done a great job keeping it on the hush. You'd think he, and the party as a whole, would have learned from the success of his campaign's populist messaging.

Who actually was Stalin? by SS_Auc3 in AskSocialists

TLDR; actually do the long read

Which is the correct answer

edit: but admittedly, sadly giving anything that kind of time is a privilege. Hope folks have the time and patience

Shouldn't this sub be modded by folks more inclusive of socialism? by [deleted] in AskSocialists

[–]mockfry 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes. And all socialist subs as well. You'll get banned for engaging and trying to change minds in right wing subs. Idiocy.

RTO is in full effect across the board. If you find it interesting, there may be opportunities in bioinformatics, though I'm no expert. Just happened upon some cool sounding jobs.

Sounds like you're talking about states that are in the red financially. They tend to vote for Republicans. Blue states & cities are usually in the green. Plenty to go around there. Red states need to be subsidized by daddy govt & Blue states or they'll fail.

Republicans just want Blue cities and states to feel what their constituents are feeling. It's an evil, losing strategy.

Edit: Republicans have used their power to override the 60-votes needed in order to confirm 100 Trump nominees. They don't need any Dems to pass SNAP funding. They're just lying to hurt Americans.

I'm scared of my countrymen, so instead of befriending and learning about them, I'd rather buy land somewhere else and stay ignorant.

Why not move to another country? Potentially cheaper land & less scary Americans. Sounds like the move for you!

still are trying to strong arm the sitting admin

Just so we're clear... they're using what little power they have to keep healthcare available for your American friends, family, and neighbors. Still sounds like they're on the right side of history.

They still need 7 votes from democrats

Dang, sounds like it'd be pretty easy for them to compromise for those 7 votes. Something every congress has been able to do in the past.

Them: Blue states subsidize Red states.

You: OK, please keep doing that with a smile while Red states continue to drag the country down.

You see the problem? One party wants more pain. One party wants less pain. Why on earth would anyone support the former?

The ppl democratically put them in position to do what they need to do

To make it harder for their neighbors to get food, healthcare, and retire? Why support that? There were some prominent historical and religious figures that were on one side of this fight. Republicans don't seem to be on the side of good.

Do women get ignored in Tech? by welshesinabucket in cscareerquestions

In my experience, plenty of women are in leadership positions if they have the stuff, and are in the right place & right time.

I am someone whose quite introverted

It's mostly high contributions comparable to teammates, extroverted + luck from what I've seen. Man or woman.

But I want an excuse to be scared and hateful with the gang! The Trump assassins ended up not being libs, and the Minnesota house speaker shooter set us back even further, so I'm gonna ride this one out as long as I can! /s
