Katt posted:Romney deserves a smidgen of respect for sacrificing his political career on the alien concept of "principles" He's going in the history books, it's not like he was going to do anything anyway. It's still purely selfish, he's just looking ahead a little further than "will Trump make fun of me on twitter"

Stop deliberately avoiding my point, which is that Bors has lovely tendencies to attack his own side far more viciously than he attacks the right because he is, in the end, a dumb and smug man like Ted Rall. So pointing out that Biden is a rapist is unacceptable under any circumstances, got it

This is literally the comic that sparked this discussion. There is no other interpretation of your attack on Bors, here. You're upset that he's pointing out that Biden is a rapist and the Democrats defending him are hypocrites.

Vincent Van Goatse posted:I'm on the record as finding Bors obnoxious about attacking his own side instead of the right many times. This is just the first time someone edited his cartoons in a way I agree with. The relation to Biden is unfortunate coincidence. It's not a coincidence. It's literally the comic that started the discussion. You saw the comic and responded with frustration. This is just cause and effect.

Vincent Van Goatse posted:It's not this particular cartoon it's his whole body of worse since he decided all he'd ever draw is his stupid Mad Max world bullshit. His one refrain is that the Democrats en bloc are incompetent worthless ninnies who don't deserve support. I'm just loving sick of it and have been saying so for the last year or so. "I love my dog, look at how cute he is!" "God I loving hate dogs, they're all disgusting. Eugh. Jesus, they sicken me." "What the hell, what's wrong with my dog?" "Oh nothing your dog is lovely, what I was saying has nothing to do with your dog. It's just coincidental. I don't think your dog is a nasty little rat at all."

Discendo Vox posted:Vincent's able to maintain a mental distinction between Biden and Trump, as well as between Democrats and Republicans, as well as between neoliberals and conservatives. Attacks that rabidly attempt to conflate all participation in political systems as moral compromise are self-defeating narcissism- which is the point of the prior Bors cartoon. Did you people all spontaneously forget this entire conversation was launched from a specific, particular cartoon, of which Biden and hypocritical Democrats specifically were being criticized in a concrete manner on a topic they are empirically being massively hypocritical over, in an eminently reasonable and straightforward way

Discendo Vox posted:No, you want it to be about that, like the contrarian wants the protester's statement to be refuted because they exhale carbon. You attacked Vincent for the phrase "Thanks for this. Really.", and since then have ignored several posts where he lays out his position, repeatedly, in detail. Respond to what they're actually saying, not the projection of your fears and insecurities. I dunno what to tell you man, the thing he was thanking the other guy for was posted in a quote response to the cartoon we've all been talking about. There's been a lot of obvious backpedaling but it's not really gonna work.

Discendo Vox posted:It's not backpedaling! It's the actual position! Everyone is not your secret posting enemy! You do not need to check every person at the environment march for plastic bottles! I guess people are posting and quoting political cartoons in this thread for no reason, and that quotes aren't a direct response to the things that we're quoting. It's my sincere hope that the true recipient of this post understands and receives my missive.

Discendo Vox posted:The Republicans are okay with directly harming the public and destroying the government. That's the distinction. Stop buying into strongman rhetoric.

I think the distinction is also supposed to be between "Chuck's Rules" and "Actual Rules of The Senate, Which Are The Ones That Matter, Because They Were Elected To The Senate" where he did take the rare step of actually trying to leverage them yesterday https://www.cnn.com/2020/09/29/politics/chuck-schumer-forces-health-care-vote/index.html quote:The top Democrat's action now sets up a vote later this week related to a bill that would protect people with pre-existing conditions if the Supreme Court sides with the Trump administration's Department of Justice and strikes down the Affordable Care Act after arguments are heard in November. Which obviously makes you ask why the gently caress haven't they been doing this more

skeleton warrior posted:Except that wouldn’t “gum up” anything, all of the obstacles the Dems could throw couldn’t do more than just make the legislative session take longer, which in 2018 would have let fewer Democrats campaign for re-election while just delaying October appointments to December So you think Schumer was being dumb and made a mistake when he tried stalling things the other day?

skeleton warrior posted:I thought Schumer wasn't doing anything? Isn't that the whole point of the cartoon, that there's nothing to do, and he's not doing anything? Isn't that what you were arguing before? Let me helpfully quote a post I made earlier on this page: Lemming posted:I think the distinction is also supposed to be between "Chuck's Rules" and "Actual Rules of The Senate, Which Are The Ones That Matter, Because They Were Elected To The Senate" where he did take the rare step of actually trying to leverage them yesterday I think this was a good thing for him to do! As such, I think it would be much better if the Democrats did that sort of thing more. Do you think this was a mistake? If not, do you think it would be good or bad for them to do this more often? If you think it would be good if they did it more often, then we're in agreement about my original statement, which is that I wish the Democrats would do more to fight back against the Republican agenda
