I dont think "the most fascist candidates for nomination are not actually meaningfully more fascist" is a slam dunk point in favor of the affirmative but maybe if you post it a 3rd time in a row it'll convince someone. fox tax

Owlspiracy posted:worrying in what sense? because it shows that gop is a bunch of fascist nutjobs? i don't need to see who they're nominating to know that, i can just look at the specific things they say, which in va include things like 'start militia patrols in your suburban communities to shoot the dangerous black thugs coming into your cul de sac to steal your belongings' and 'donald trump is still president in 2021 despite the jew plan to swing the election towards communist joe biden'. I think while we can say that it's good the Democrats have a better chance of winning, it's worrying that the Republicans are embracing fascist nutjobbery so that attitudes like 'start militia patrols in your suburban communities to shoot the dangerous black thugs coming into your cul de sac to steal your belongings' and "donald trump is still president in 2021 despite the jew plan to swing the election towards communist joe biden" have become normalized among VA Republicans.

VitalSigns posted:Isn't it obvious, it's worrying to me because the consequences of losing to a fash-lite nutjob are dire. Same reason it was worrying when the Republicans nominated Trump instead of iJeb! even though the Democratic Party was overjoyed because obviously someone like that could never win, it's in the bag now (narrator: it wasn't). My response to Republicans nominating terrible candidates is "oh poo poo gently caress no" because even if I think they'll lose against a competent campaign, you only need to gently caress up a little bit and welp. early in the pandemic amanda chase would wander into random restaurants with a cameraman in tow, force them to kick her out for not wearing a mask, and then post the unhinged video on her facebook as evidence of the deep state conspiracy against her. during the george floyd protests she went on camera and gave an unhinged speech about how the local sheriff - also a republican - told her that a horde of armed black youths were coming to murder and rob white people which caused the sheriff to publicly denounce her and call her a liar.

The sad(?) thing is that Chase has essentially identical positions on COVID, immigration, voting rights, and guns as 2 of the 3 other Republican candidates. But, she is very loud and talks about them in a crazy way. This makes her "the extreme one," but the other two candidates with identical positions are not considered "extreme."

We don't have IDF plants in D&D anymore, do we? https://twitter.com/washingtonpost/status/1391815361675333635?s=20 quote:JERUSALEM — The militant group Hamas fired seven rockets at Jerusalem and dozens more at southern Israel on Monday evening after violent clashes near the al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem between Israeli police and Arab protesters left more than 300 Palestinians injured. the IDF so far isn't claiming these rockets actually hit anything or even managed to reach the city. Probably close to a thousand Palestinians have been injured in Israel's latest push against them. The IDF is now to the bombing them into submission stage. Biden hates Bibi as much as Obama did so we might get some strongly worded condemnations of this escalation.

The CFPB just reopened an investigation that it had shutdown during the Trump era against Wells Fargo. If you opened a Wells Fargo checking account with a debit card anytime in the last few years, then you can probably get around $15 in the settlement. If you opened a Wells Fargo checking account with a debit card anytime in the last few years and paid overdraft fees, then you can probably get around $50 + whatever the total amount of overdraft fees you paid in the last few years was. Might be a while before you can get it, though. The CPFB has to finalize the investigation, set the penalty/settlement fund, and then make a website for people to apply. You'll need to provide bank statements or other documentation to claim any extra money based on overdraft fees. Wells Fargo's internal estimation for losses due to legal action for this year is $2.6 billion. The amount each person gets from the class action settlement will be determined by the settlement amount and how many people apply. quote:Wells Fargo & Co. said it’s facing a new probe from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau over checking-account practices. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-05-06/wells-fargo-faces-new-cfpb-probe-over-checking-account-practices

So Biden's going to have to go a bit on the defensive due to underwhelming April 2021 job report numbers. Hopefully my twitchiness about "Dems in disarray," is just Pavlovian reflexes and not based on the actual situation. https://www.nytimes.com/2021/05/07/business/biden-republicans-jobs.html I'd feel better to see more bills getting passed, but the government machine moves slowly. And a piece regarding the need to account for agenda derailment due to potential deaths in the Dem ranks. Fun! https://www.nytimes.com/2021/05/10/upshot/democrats-agenda-hinges-health.html
