bowser posted:Obama is going to be the Reagan of the left. Regardless of all his shortcomings, he was undeniably a cool and likeable President and that's really what will be remembered. I look forward to candidates in the 2044 Democratic Primary debates invoking his name reverently I sure hope not. The reason he can be spoken thusly is that he went quietly and quickly into the night. Obama being younger and less Alzheimer's-y has years of making GBS threads on the GOP left in him.

It really bothers me that the yoda gangbang doesn't sync up. At least not on my awful app. Also, I kinda liked my AV. I've had it forever.. Hope this is a temporary gimmick and not a tax on shot posting

Darth Walrus posted:So it looks like the bathroom bill was a bunch of dickbags going into a state other than their own, doing their level best to turn it into a bigoted hellhole, and then watching as the government retaliated by stomping on the state they ruined. Any way to more personally hurt the people who came up with it? I feel that the state of North Carolina is kind of a victim here. Someone had to come from outside the land of Jesse Helms to make it a bigoted hellhole?

radical meme posted:I can say with almost 100% certainty that your wrong. I think that most every U.S. Citizen knows a gay man and a lesbian woman. The transgendered community is, by most best estimates, less than 1/2 of 1% of the population. Most people do not know a transgendered person, do not interact with a transgendered person and have no idea what concerns or issues they face. It's this, but they *do* have an idea - it's just a total re-hashing of the same old slurs that were used against gay men.

Is bet the wages aren't nearly as big of a hit as health care where fast food places are required to provide them, or workmans comp or any of those other secondary costs. All of which could be avoided if we just provided universal health care.

Going back to the Oklahoma shitshow, the thing I found most interesting besides the state of emergency is that the bill goes right for a religious exemption as its legal tactic as if there's any religion with some strong tenets about single sex bathroom use. It drives me loving nuts that these fuckers hide under the cloak of religion and I wish we weren't so wishy washy about Christianity that leftist Christians could come out and smack the gently caress out of these people.

Boon posted:I just want to nth recommend the "Keepin' it 1600" podcast. Last week's with Chuck Todd was fantastic This week with S.E. Cupp was pretty good too. If we're all striving for authenticity, it's nice to hear insiders be able to talk frankly and say the world gently caress. They talk about how much emotional investment they had in the Obama campaign and how that translated into a hatred of Hillary Clinton that didnt fade until months into the actual administration.

What is "trumpism" other than the white working class reaction to globalization? They had a pretty good deal going post new deal and especially post war, but since we had to include black people in the benefits of citizenship it's all gone to poo poo for them. Now their very jobs are being taken by the brown menace. Being white and male isn't the same free pass it once was and people are pissed about it and they're looking for a scapegoat.

Those referred to as "warrant wagons" by the police and motor vehicle infractions like late registrations and broken tail lights are one kd the primary entry points for poor people into the criminal justice system.
