Camp fire for the saints…

Beetschnapps ,

A horrid mindset.

Beetschnapps ,

It ain’t that bad! Ain’t that good either but still!

Why Democrats think Biden’s problem is Biden ( www.politico.com )

Democrats keep doing surprisingly well in special elections. The party’s most vulnerable Senate incumbents are running ahead of their rivals in key battleground states. One of Democrats’ signature issues — reproductive rights — has repeatedly proved a winning message....

Beetschnapps ,

Right! They’re forced to run! So fuck it vote for trump… you have no other options right?

In your own words… Who were they supposed to force?

It’s not like you have a choice, it’s not like this world lets you participate…. Keep whining…

Beetschnapps ,

Basically “NO”

There is no example of fair use in this illustration. There is no real expiration.

Beetschnapps ,

“I fear that nothing matters and even being concerned is a wasted effort.”

Your “fear” is the issue. You offer nothing but issues / excuses.

Beetschnapps ,

Bless your heart…

Beetschnapps ,

True. Horny should overrule all. Any system, if it feels “off” then it’s non-normative. So fuck you.

Beetschnapps , (edited )

You’re the one materially incorrect if you’re saying a handful of primary voters holds a fucking candle to AIPAC money and the Israeli lobbying apparatus.

You can weirdly argue Biden “let” people die all you want, but at the end of the day that’s not the opinion a majority of voters hold. It’s also not the top priority in their life right now, regardless of their opinion of Gaza. Any lost margin you think was represented in those primaries is ignorantly cute compared to the Israeli lobby on both sides, the Jewish vote and other folks with designs on the region.

Bottom line there’s almost a century of US foreign policy involved, combined with decades of republicans fucking up the region, combined with liberal politics, combined with a fucked up election.

The way things are, a handful of primary voters are a fart in the wind right now. They would do better to elect progressives to local elections and the House of Representatives than to sink a democratic president. One who has already worked with and championed progressives but also… you know has to lead a country of 100s of millions of people with different opinions.

Beetschnapps ,

Only to blame its effects on democrats just as conservative news sources tell them.

All while they fall for the GOPs brand new “firehose of lies” scam. That or its low calorie sister-brand “torrent of bigotry”, which is also popular with the conservative crowd.

Biden’s D-Day Speech Nailed the Threat of Modern Fascism ( www.thedailybeast.com )

With these words Biden addressed the bitter irony that haunted the commemoration ceremonies. While D-Day occurred eight decades ago, America is now just five months from an election that could bring to power a man and a movement who embody and celebrate the twisted authoritarian values of the enemies we sought to defeat so long...

Beetschnapps ,

And the internet complains!

Beetschnapps ,

And risks reversing it all for the sake of “both sides”-ing the discourse.

There’s a grievance liberals have that is being exploited for the sake of balance and it doesn’t help John’s past work to pretend democracy isn’t literally in the ballot.

He’s great provided the decade isn’t current. Right now I don’t see any humor in ridiculing Biden’s age and parroting GOP talking points.

Beetschnapps ,

No faith in the American project…

Beetschnapps ,

Jimmy Carter gave up his peanut farm to avoid the appearance of conflict.

Abe Fortas left the Supreme Court after serving only FOUR FUCKING YEARS to avoid the appearance of conflict.

Compare these two people to the current justices or trump cutting hush money checks WHILE IN OFFICE…

Basically there is no evidence in this country that being moral will keep you in power. There is no public incentive for the gov to do the right thing. Republican voters have now insured that’s not necessary. It’s pretty clear from now on the GOP approach is to outright steal what they want regardless of how bad it appears.

Hence Supreme Court justices telling you to get fucked if you care about their independence, trump saying in a court house how the US is basically bullshit, and Fox News nodding their heads.

Beetschnapps ,

Well tell us all what this has to do with cops?

I mean don’t get me wrong, it’s total fucking bullshit but what does that have to do with cops being bastards?

Beetschnapps ,

PROVIDED the bullshitter doesn’t turn inward. A PM with those skills unleashed on the team is hell, and is guaranteed to drive talent away.

Beetschnapps ,

This is as necessary as Microsoft’s UX demands it. So yea it’s necessary. Sorry, office is that bad.

Beetschnapps ,

If you have to convince yourself that “libertarianism” is the answer, you have bigger issues than weed plants. It doesn’t matter how high they grow…

Beetschnapps ,

Yea I remember as well. They all vote republican. There is no reality where libertarians come out on the right side of Bush. History has shown you stupid. Keep trying to re-write it.

Beetschnapps ,

Oh cool like gamble with these nazis… they might not be socially toxic… generally.

Beetschnapps ,

Keep trying…

Beetschnapps ,

I can dig it. But you’re talking about party and I’m talking about policy.

The dems have a habit of snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. But that’s separate from lying the country into multiple wars. It’s separate from the history of conservatism that existed for decades. It’s separate from the “tea party” and all the dirty money that ever gave libertarians air time in the first place.

Libertarianism is an argument begging for validity without any actual civil accomplishments it can point to. Dems can point to the civil rights movement and conservatism point against it. So where do you point? You can keep saying how shitty dems are at getting elected. My response is how shitty libertarians are when they’re in office.

Beetschnapps ,

You talk about dems shooting their foot off. I’m talking about conservatives shooting the face off the country. Libertarians don’t offer a better direction compared to “bomb bomb bomb Iran” they are Lee Atwater let off the chain. Libertarianism is just conservatism let loose there is a chain of rhetoric linking this all to terrible actions.

Beetschnapps ,

Is this the King David interpretation?

Beetschnapps , (edited )

The important part is to align him with Biden and shit all over everything.

It doesn’t matter if there is a republican giving full throated support to apartheid… if a democrat even seems icky that’s more important.

Beetschnapps ,

Are you familiar with republican foreign policy?

Beetschnapps ,

Keep it going! They are the same because history! They both USED Kissinger!

Foreign policy is clearly beyond your grasp.

With your approach… The end game seems to be ignorance.

Beetschnapps ,

Whatever “genocide person” does for you is irrelevant. You are someone desperately asking for others to solve your problems. At worst the rest of us will solve your problems, otherwise you might do it yourself but I have my doubts…

Beetschnapps ,

Let’s pretend about that world…

As trump gasses these folks…

But it’s someone else gassing people… it’s not the same republicans that did it back in the day with the patriots act. No that was different…

Beetschnapps ,

They have so been slaughtered! This approach to US imperialism has totally solved for your concern.

Beetschnapps ,

Roller skates with the front brake have a specific direction of travel. If you violate that you face plant. A 4 wheel platform is different than ice skates.

Rollerblades at least mimicked ice skates such that if you learned on one it could translate to the other.

Even still, they looked fucking goofy.

Beetschnapps ,

Woah! Wait? ”Inline blades” are so specific…

Beetschnapps , (edited )

No. Racist too. Classist shit already existed with property taxes being linked to school district funding.

Now you can just straight opt out of going to a school with too many colored folk.

PS to add: It’s worth pointing out, that the whole mention of “choice” presupposes that no one tries to improve a school, just leave it… while republicans starve its funding… just so happens to be in a black neighborhood.

Beetschnapps ,

It’s not even an issue for her.

ANITA HILL VOTED FOR BIDEN.

But for you? I’m sure Biden also stubbed your toe.

Beetschnapps , (edited )

“everyone i know is indifferent I guess…”

Those stuck in “reality” are truly left to deal with the fact that indifference has more votes. Cause every election come, folks are just too happy to accept the status quo, or accept facism with a sentiment like “they probably will…”

Beetschnapps , (edited )

If it helps… just substitute the quote “All the gen-z I know” with “anecdotally you can ignore this.”

Beetschnapps ,

Crumple zones? Fuck that! Truck so light I’ll just bounce off the wall.

Beetschnapps ,

It’s hard to appreciate the history of the flag once it’s been appropriated by nazis.

“It’s not a swastika, trust me I’m flying what was once an ancient Sanskrit symbol of peace…”

It was once one thing… but now? It’s a fucking nazi flag. Which coincidentally also flies in grocery stores in Florida cause reasons…

Beetschnapps ,

Passively displaying any stuff is the holy grail, but we get there step by step.

Beetschnapps ,

Seriously though, which one of y’all cuts hair?

Beetschnapps ,

So in lots of places like in Cambridge the lanes have been shown to alleviate traffic.

There are so many reasons to complain about traffic, so many REAL reasons like arteries around downtown or alewife…

So why use the term “paternalism”? Wu’s not even your father…

Beetschnapps ,

Almost like a right-wing media apparatus that started as “Fox News lies” has now expanded out and is gaslighting the whole country.

The country pretty much shrugged their shoulders after 9-11 so why not?

Beetschnapps ,

The dog killed someone’s and it’s Biden’s fault right?

Beetschnapps ,

So… what? You really like to point out she killed her dog. Seems important to you.

Why?

Beetschnapps ,

My first thought too! How could you talk shit on Blankman? J5!

Beetschnapps ,

It’s almost like your definition of democracy revolves around being unhappy. Compromise means nothing, and if the klan doesn’t get its way no one should ever be happy.

Beetschnapps ,

Kinda like the scene in Easy Rider.

Beetschnapps ,

Cool facts bro, good for you explaining things down to us.

…but OP was talking about pigeons.
