Everyone who works for trump gets shit on. No exceptions.

I’m not seeing that from this article, but you seem to know a lot about her - what are some other things she’s done?

Well you can argue the words or the pronunciation thereof but I don’t think you’re on the right side of that one. Language is central to reality and you’re talking about a wide swath of people’s reality where oligarch has little meaning but king has a lot.

As for CIA-bad, no argument there but CIA-bad-therefore-anyone-who-worked-there-bad I’d also disagree with. We gotta have someone to run and if she’s progressive and firey, I’ll take it. If the left wants to primary her for someone else, fine - so long as they can win. But in most cases they don’t have anyone.

I think you’d see a lot of people unhappy with it. The “teaching people the term” isn’t as straighforward as learning the A B Cs. You’d be putting a big roadblock in front of you for little practical gain.

That’s what the lawyers are supposed to argue. That prevents Jill Stein from saying she’s a Democrat and then suing because they didn’t give her the presidential nomination.

Yes and no

Good thing it was never about savings then isn’t it.

I’m arguing for no huffpo links. this is another reason why.

Gosh he seemed so competent and professional though.

If anybody wanted to read the article (ha! yeah, I know) she’s not saying we should lose ‘woke’ ideology or stop attacking ‘oligarchy’. She says the opposite of those things, which was phrased by mediaite this way for clickbait reasons.

What she’s saying is to use the word “kings” instead of “oligarchy”. Which I get. Sure - do that. Makes sense. Same argument, same vitriol, more punch.

As for the ‘woke’ part, she said:

Detailing her plan, Slotkin – a former analyst for the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) – argued that the Democratic Party needed to lose its “weak and woke” reputation and “fucking retake the flag,” adopting a “goddamn Alpha energy” inspired by Detroit Lions coach Dan Campbell.

She’s mad as fuck and doesn’t want to explain why people need to be treated with respect - it should be a given and we don’t need to explain it.

So there’s sixty comments on here so far, most of them railing against her but I don’t see it. I think she’s been misinterpreted, deliberately, in the case of the mediaite headline writer.

Good examples. Both from ~six years ago and not the original claim of “decades” but good examples.

You think maybe the DNC should use “proletariat” more in their campaign ads? That’d get them the red wall states?

So to answer the original question, the idea that “the left can’t get together on school shootings” - what’s your answer then?

More guns? Better . . . guns? I’m asking.

Bernie’s loss is seen as a direct result of DWS’s committee fuckery by most people on here. Which is not the same as it being true, it just gets a lot more attention.

It’s the case that he didn’t win enough votes. But I think it was the first time he got such good exposure for a national contest.

Breitbart

Oh man . . . you just know a strongly worded letter is gonna come out of this. Hit the deck!

I mean - just because he’s doling out classified information into an unsecured line with his personal signal account in the most spied-on building in the most spied-on town in the world, I’d be surprised if he wasn’t being passed around all the big dictatorships.

Like a broken slot machine, he just keeps paying out.

HA. As if anything works at all.

Medal of Freedom, obvs.

Superdelegates don’t vote in the primaries. And it’s presidential only. And they only comprise 15% of the delegates.
