Ummm I don’t think it’s purity if the people you are asked to work with support literally nothing you do. Which is kind of a Biden’s whole brand. It’s also why this election is breaking so many libs they are effortlessly sliding right going so far as abandon the few good positions they had. Like rape is bad

christmas boots posted:This whole discussion sent me on a whirlwind of looking up pirate stuff, and apparently that flag design might actually be a 20th century anachronism. At least this page claims that it's earliest appearance was in a book from 1912, whereas an illustration from a 1736 reprinting of A General History of the Pyrates shows his ship with the more traditional skull and bones. Well I trust the gift shops on Ocracoke Island more than I trust some "historyman". (that is good to know, though, thank you.)

EasilyConfused posted:Edit: For the record, I've literally never met a liberal who hates socialists more than fascists and I've been a socialist for decades. To clarify this one, because I think you're sort of misunderstanding what someone means when they say this, this is more referring to those people who, sure, nominally hate fascism and fascist tendencies more, and maybe they do, but they sure speak out a whole lot more often against the socialists they supposedly aren't that heavily in disagreement with. So, 'more' as in 'more often', not as in 'harder'. You actually see it a whole lot in Australian politics, where it seems like a sect of the center-left Labor party and their supporters pull the knives out about the further-left Greens a whole lot more readily than they do against the parties that actually oppose them.

Yeah, I may have read too much into what they were saying, thanks for the clarification. Honestly, some of the most bitter disagreements I've experienced have been among socialist groups (DSA versus WP versus CPUSA, etc. etc.).

It may be more useful to use an example. Like, for instance, the Democratic Party pulling out all the stops and doing all the ratfucking you can imagine, including literally sending their volunteers and voters out to die by refusing to postpone primaries for Covid-19, in order to sabotage the candidacy of the "socialist" who would actually try to solve America's problems, in order to line up behind a dementia-addled neoliberal who will lose to Trump in November, because they would rather have four more years of wannabe-fascism than let a socialist become the head of their party.

Lmao, Black Hebrew Israelites are such a trip. I heard my mom listening to some video about a guy roping flat earth together with their whole credo from a Mark Sargent video he watched. I tune that out because gently caress that nonsense, but god, someone on here was saying that if you believe in one conspiracy theory you'll believe anything and that was the most apt thing about this whole trainwreck. They keep talking about God coming and wiping out all the Edomites and I can't imagine they'd be happy if that actually did happen, because then who could they be contrarian against on every topic? From the part I had overheard they might be convinced that space isn't real because the sun being 93 million miles is absurd. Also I think I heard one part about the sun revolving around the Earth. I wish there was a thread about them on here, every time the topic shifts to them in a thread it's always fun to read. I'm sure as hell not about to watch one of their boring rear end videos now or ever. I can't wait to hear about gravity not existing in a month, with the rate this is going now.

Nuebot posted:Basically. I've been hearing it since before "cuck" took off in some parts of the internet, but the same people who used cuck all the time have taken hold of it now and are saying it all over the place so it's just become another word to mean "person I don't like." Is "every woman I've dated does amateur pornography" an actual problem anyone really has or is this just Internet misogynists projecting really hard as usual?

Weird looking revolvers. I kinda want one. Big rear end bore so probably chambered in .455 putting it at late 1800s through WW1. But as Levar Burton always said, "don't take my word for it".

Unless they're teachers who are molesting male students, in which case that's just every teenage boy's fantasy come true.
