›
sanders needs to be worried about how to win over educated white women in swing districts, not how to convince deeply religious, illiterate ...
›
if you want to rally the base, sanders is the guy. whether it works or not... but, if you're concerned about these tactical swing demo...
›
but i want to.... should they rally the base or win over swing voters? false dichotomy - think in dialectics, instead. they need to do bot...
›
but, the party just drove off a superior candidate who had a better chance of winning the general in order to appease a base of arguably hom...
›
i'll repeat the point: there was always an exactly 0% chance that i'd support a joe biden candidacy, in any way. he doesn't eve...
›
maybe the best way to state what i'm saying is this - biden voters would probably support buttigieg pretty readily, but buttigieg suppor...
›
i will accept comparisons between the ira and the plo, but not between the ira and isis. the former has some vague value in the form of case...
›
he made a lot of errors, and i guess this is the last one. i insist that he would have beaten biden overall, who has shown no ability at all...
›
comparing the nazis in idlib to the ira, or the situation in ireland to syria in general, is truly offensively stupid. the situations have...
›
you know who really needs to step down, after this fiasco? jim clyburn.
›
biden is going to lose to trump. the early results in these white states made it clear that he's not going to be competitive in the most...
›
i'm fucking sick of letting red states pick the nominee. the midwest needs to hold it's ground and push back and beat the south...
›
i actually think the results in south carolina suggest that biden should drop, as he didn't demonstrate the kind of dominance that he ne...
›
the thing about the latin speakers is that they may be a little bit socially conservative, and that might freak me out, and should concern a...
›
we can get into debates about epistemology, but i don't generally care if conservatives exist, so long as i can just avoid them. what i ...
›
i don't know exactly what conservatives do for fun. i guess they have events at church, and stuff. that's your tribe. go join it. st...
›
what i would say to these people is this: the world's full of conservatives. go find some and make some friends.
›
no, i don't want to change the "toxic drinking culture" to make more space for religious muslim women. rather, i think there s...
›
regarding bernie, though. now that south carolina is over, and this strategy to contort his own views to try to win conservative black churc...
›
"this primary isn't a game" - elizabeth warren so, that's an epic fail at winning the prisoner's dilemma. the...
›
ok, we're back up in the laptop. i haven't showered yet, as i'm waiting for a second round of dishes. i don't think he's...
›
ok, let's get away from this now, for real.
›
that's a somewhat sketchy calculation though, because it relies on exit poll numbers. i pulled out the actual initial vote totals for a ...
›
we can update those numbers with something more precise. the margin is roughly the same because the concept is just shifted, but there is a...
›
iowa is maybe a lost cause. but, if the democrats want to win in november, nevada and new hampshire are truly must win states. he badly...
›
we went through this in 2016, and they're just repeating all the same errors. they've learned nothing.
›
should the other candidates clear out to make way for biden? no. these results don't strengthen his argument at all - they've demons...

›
clinton got ~270,000 votes in 2016 and about 40% of them were black, as per the previous calculation. so, she got ~ 108000 black votes. ...
›
biden won categories - like "prefer switching to single payer" - that don't actually make any sense, indicating that it's...
›
true or false: communists believe in the abolition of the state.
›
so, what have i been doing? i've been sitting in front of this chromebook since i got back on thursday morning, trying to pivot and kind...
›
obama won razor-thin margins on the back of a total dominance of a specific minority, and historic turnout within it. that was never sustain...
›
if you have to accept the inevitability of a decrease in black turnout in the post-obama era, and the numbers are in, now - you do - then yo...
›
no. stop. the argument was that clinton lost because she couldn't get enough black voters out, right? i'm not sure how actu...
›
we knew biden was going to do well with black voters. but, it seems like biden didn't do nearly as well as clinton did, let alone as wel...
›
the actual reality is that there was actually a very large number of north americans of german descent that supported the nazis in world wa...
›
i don't fear the russians. really. i like to poke fun at them, though. i'm going to get hit by a tornado from their weather modifica...
›
vodka best medicine, sterilize digestive system.
›
why russia not have case? let me tell you why, it's because russia is strong! when americans get stuffy nose, they go cry to doctor, han...

"you should believe men!" "no, you should believe women!" fuck. i don't believe either of you . i want you to prove ...
›
see, this actually strikes me as facile bickering. which one do i believe ? no - that's the wrong question. which one can produce credib...
›
who is to blame for this shit, though? her name is hillary clinton.
›
this is right from the un: The humanitarian crisis still unfolding in Syria will probably deteriorate in a catastrophic manner unless the gl...
›
any support toward the nazis on the ground in idlib will just result in an extension of this war. if you want this war to end, which is what...
›
so, i want to kind of translate this because the mainstream press, which now includes many of the sources i used to rely on, is just going ...
›
i guess the other explanation regarding the poll closures is that bloomberg paid somebody off to stop biden from running up the score. the m...
›
something else to keep in mind is that it is sometimes hard to vote in the united states if you're black, and, contrary to public perce...
›
clinton didn't just need to win in the south, she needed to run up the score. biden may end up winning most of these states, but i think...
›
why am i doing this? because there's a misconception about what happened in 2016. it is absolutely true that clinton did very well ...
›
i had to nap a little. these are the existing popular vote numbers: sanders - 28.49%, 163082 buttigieg - 23.28%, 133252 klobuchar - 15.24%,...

i was literally moments away from getting back to work on what i was doing, when the power flickered off and on. i'm going to have to re...
›
well? does anybody have a body count for jfk? http://www.socialist.ca/node/1992
›
also - jfk was infinitely worse than fidel castro. sorry. those are the facts.
›
i just don't understand how anybody can line buttigieg and biden up beside each other and pick biden - that's just an irrational dec...
›
asking white south carolinians what they think about trump directly is like asking ukrainians what they thought about stalin. you're not...
›
so, what's my projection of south carolina? biden seems like he's going to win in a landslide, and that would appear to be unav...

so, the answer to the question is that the tribunal served the respondent with the request for deferral and she will be expected to respond ...

let's kind of think this through, though. if a new virus shows up in china and starts killing chinese people, is it more likely tha...
›
so, did they create this thing in a lab? they could have. if they did, they'd probably let it loose in iran first. but, you'd think ...
›
like, apparently the country with the second highest death toll is iran. that's just kind of a curious fact.
›
ok, i'm calling now. for real. let's try the human rights tribunal, first.

the data they've given us says that chances are that you'll catch this thing and have it pass without even knowing you have it... bu...

this is the law i'm referring to: https://www.ontario.ca/laws/statute/90p55

in fact, that's something that mr. blair should know about because he exploited that law to arrest protesters during the g20 fiasco.

i want to clarify a comment i made about charging the protesters with terrorism. because the issue is to do with rail service, specifically...

ok, that was a lot of distractions. i'm going to get a bit more fruit, because i want to eat it up, and then get back to what i'm do...
