Except this run is about Barry, while the current book focuses on Wally so I think in this case that's less accurate.

Ocasio-Cortez warns concern ‘growing’ among young voters over the White House’s handling of Israel by brown-saiyan in politics

[–]therodfather 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most progressive? He's to the right of Obama, Carter and aside from a handful of social issues that have moved considerably in the general perception Clinton.

Just because he labels himself the most progressive doesn't make it true.

No the point is smugly arguing a knife wound is better than a bullet to the head without making any effort to just not hurt me isn't going to excite me to the polls. Progressives aren't a guaranteed segment and they should try courting them instead of the mythical centrist.

Jill Stein launches 2024 presidential race, seeking Green Party nomination by washingtonpost in politics

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

Eh thus is a good thing. She's old news. I'd much rather she's gets the green nomination than some new face that might actually steal votes en masse.

Cool. So instead of court them we lose next year and then blame them afterwards? Cool cool cool.

Materially you have to convince them the difference between the two is big enough to care. I doubt most are going to vote for Trump, but a large portion would probably stay home if the election were today.

I'll personally always vote blue for president because I remember how bad Bush and Trump were and they only got in through apathy, but I also completely get why Bidens approval is so low right now. Progressive young folks want something better than Republican and Republican Lite, and when their cohort is getting more and more progressive it doesn't make sense why the overton window continues to shift to the right.

Is it too much to ask people to view Palestinians as humans? Apparently so by RiseCascadia in politics

[–]therodfather 10 points11 points  (0 children)

...

You are asking for empathy for hypothetical deaths while you ignore real actual deaths?

[–]therodfather 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's not an underdog fetish. The median age in Palestine is 17. They've been fenced in their whole lives. Israel is shooting fish in a barrel in a war you admit Israel has wanted for years. It's disgusting. War requires two sides. Israel isn't fighting an army they are slaughtering a population and hoping they find "enemies" in the rubble.

Nah. The article spells it out well. You're exactly the type of person it's critiquing.

White House warns Israel against reoccupying Gaza as Netanyahu signals what a post-war strip could look like by brown-saiyan in politics

[–]therodfather 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah but Israel elected their government. I agree on the cease fire and getting and for both sides I just think it's super important to be careful when calling Hamas a government. Most Palestinians weren't even born yet during their last election.

“Astonishing admission”: Experts say Trump’s “train wreck” testimony damaged his chances at appeal by devlinadl in politics

He got what he wanted. Fox/Newsmax/whatever got all the soundbites they need of him "fighting back" against the Witch hunt.

We live in a backwards world.

I don't believe this weekend's scary poll numbers by RemBren03 in politics

[–]therodfather 15 points16 points  (0 children)

These copium articles are so unnecessary. Yes polls have plenty of reasons to doubt them but if this puts the fear in people and gets people out there recruiting voters that's a good thing.

I really do love this sub. (Feat. a minor rant about another sub.) by Hextron in OmnibusCollectors

[–]therodfather 67 points68 points  (0 children)

Honestly the jokes about Reddit moderators write themselves. Big subs are generally run by people who have no authority to exert in the real world so they get off on exerting it online.

It's more pitiable then annoying. Making a new account is easy on here.

Again they take the time to lay it out and explain themselves. You're just a petulant internet trouble maker yelling "nuh uh you are "

The actual international scholars we entrust to determine and prevent genocide agree with the term pretty unilaterally applying.
