1·18 hours agoIf they wanted my vote, they should’ve nominated Bernie. That’s how voting works.

1·23 hours agoIt wasn’t even a majority of Democratic voters. Only 14% of them voted in the primary. It was a very, very small number of people who selected Clinton.

1·1 day agoThe DNC didn’t give us that. The people did.
Where did I say anything about the DNC?
Winkly’s claim was that Sanders was the people’s choice. The votes show that Clinton was actually the people’s choice, by a wide margin.
Which “the people” are you talking about? Sanders had much more support with “the people” (i.e. voters in general), but was unable to get that support from “the people” in the core of the Democratic Party (i.e. the folks who actually decide who the nominee is going to be).
Never let the Democrats argue that they vote based upon pragmatism when shit like this happens. The pragmatic choice would’ve been Sanders.

12·1 day agoThe people voted for Clinton over Sanders by a double digit percentage margin. It wasn’t even close.
Okay, so they gave us Clinton by a double-digit percentage margin. That makes it worse, not better.
Biden won the 2024 primary by a more than 80 percent margin.
That’s because he ran virtually unopposed. For example, my primary ballot only had two options: “Biden” and “uncommitted”.
Can you imagine running in a race by yourself and still only getting 80%?

11·1 day agoAt least nobody voted for that evil socialist Jill Stein. She would’ve turned the US into Cuba and put people into FEMA camps!

45·1 day agoThe Democrats are right-wing. They’re the party of “nothing will fundamentally change”. They don’t care about whether or not you’re okay, unless you’re part of the 1%.
My first exposure to Joe Rogan was when he was on Penn Radio debating an astronomer (Phil Plait). The subject of the debate: Rogan believes that the moon landing was a hoax. He was very polite, and Penn couldn’t quit saying what a nice guy he was, but he did that annoying shit that conspiracy assholes often do where they pretend that they’re “just asking questions”.
This was 20 years ago. So, maybe his show wasn’t always like that, but for Rogan himself this is nothing new.
Yeah, I’ve seen much longer threads about things much less consequential. People like to argue online. More news at 11.
Yes, we have created a bullshit-producing machine in order to automate the production of tedious bullshit. We’d be better off with a society which doesn’t require the bullshit production in the first place, but here we are.
Wait… which past controversy were you talking about?
I only went fishing twice. It was boring as shit, and I never caught anything. (Which I’m glad of now.)
I’m assuming that he’s a friend of the neighbor lady, so he isn’t really a random.
BSA is not the only scouting org, and there are other ways to be a positive role model (such as volunteering for Big Brothers Big Sisters).
What bothers me is the squeaky chipmunk voice that sings those lyrics. Also, there is absolutely nothing thunderous about this song. Annoying, grating…but no thunder.
Have you ever heard the phrase “getting stupid”? Well, this is one level beyond that.

Most of the people who work there don’t even care if you’re shoplifting.
