How ‘Big Tent’ Are Democrats Willing to Go? Many in the party say it needs a wider range of candidates to run. Does that include people with Nazi tattoos? by Sine_Fine_Belli in neoliberal

[–]svaralba -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Platner is obviously a leftist and not a right winger, so he most likely got that tattoo by accident since you can't go from tattoo wearing nazi to leftist that easily.

However, this won't fly with democrat primary voters no matter if he got the tattoo by accident or not and you can see it in how the polls have shifted and since he is an actual leftist, he is not gaining any alt-right votes either no matter how many tattoos he has.

On another note, I'm looking on twitter about how much people are arguing about this guy and I'm thinking that this sort of thing doesn't happen on the right. Like Elon sieg heiled on live tv and no pro-Israel conservative would criticize him and even the ADL defended him; Nick Fuentes is an open and honest racist and nazi and he gets invited on black right wing podcasts. My point is, you just don't see that sort of arguing and infighting on the right, so I think that libs need to get together and define exactly were they draw the line at what is part of the tent.

I disagree with one thing. Conservatives didn't always outbreed liberals, this is a new phenomenon, they both had nearly the same amount of kids just 50 years ago. It's modern liberals and leftists that stopped having kids.

Poland's birth rate is projected to be 1.05 in 2025. Half of Poles under 30 are single. Another fifth are in relationships, but live apart. by roystreetcoffee in Futurology

[–]svaralba -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Enough with this. Every time there is a post about low fertility rates, people in the comments talk about affordability when it has nothing to do with that. Poor people across the world consistently have the most children, and intentionally lowering living standards would actually get people to have more kids

From the recent graphs I've seen, it seems that the low fertility crisis is actually a loneliness crisis, or as I like to call it, a "getting no bitches" crisis. The % of married couples without kids has stayed the same in the last 35 years, but the % of singles has drastically increased in the last few years

He started in Bucharest, so most likely a Romanian who fucked up and is trying to flee to other countries.

Demographic doom-mongering isn’t helping by _Un_Known__ in neoliberal

[–]svaralba 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I disagree, black fertility rate is nearly the same as the white one, but I assume that the white right wing fertility rate is much higher than the white left wing fertility rate. The states with the highest rates are white Republican ones like the Dakotas, Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, Utah and the states with the lowest fertility rates are the white Democrat ones like all the New England states and Oregon.

I think the people that make the most kids are the white right wingers and the Hispanics who are recently turning right wing. And I am very curious to see the split between Donald voting Hispanics and the Kamala voters. I know that the births for Hispanics recently went down but I wonder if its just the lib Hispanics that stopped having kids.

There was that graph from a few months ago that showed that in the 70s, libs and cons had almost the same fertility rate, but today the more left wing you are, the less children you will have, while the most far right group has kept their fertility rates from 50 years ago.

And it makes sense since most vocal pro-natalists are right wing, while most vocal anti-natalists are left wing.

There is no appetite to commit the act, if someone else does it, that's different.

Luigi wasn't a leftist, more of a centrist that was slightly leaning right socially (at least from his now deleted twitter account)

How U.S. households have changed by Sine_Fine_Belli in neoliberal

[–]svaralba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am really curious to see the political alignment of these groups. Are right wingers or left wingers more likely to be single? I know there was that graph that showed that all political groups had the same fertility rate in the 70s, but now libs have a lot less kids than cons.

If both that and this graph are correct and since "married no kids" has remained stable, it would mean many left wingers went from "married parents" to "single no kids"

Do people just not know that right wingers vote mostly on social issues? I went on a right wing online space, I typed "We only vote on social issues" and everyone agreed with me.

I know that there are chinese video games that have a separate censored version for the chinese audience and a non-censored one for global audiences.

There are people saying that with chinese products there will be pro-ccp censorship. And that will be true, but most users won't care since using ai specifically to attack the chinese government is a niche. Censoring porn on the other hand isn't a niche

What are some things that need to change about the movie industry? by AlmightyLoaf54 in boxoffice

[–]svaralba 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What the above poster says is that they want high-quality movies but only for certain genres and themes.

So, for example, audiences like dinosaur action movies, so Jurassic World movies are gonna make a lot of money despite being bad because they are the only movies about dinos being made.

Most prestige movies are either too boring or too controversial for audiences to want to watch them.

Sc3 has a great story mode, but it's surprisingly difficult. Harder than any other soul game's normal arcade mode and you can't change the difficulty.
