content enough to threaten to run as an independent and allow Clinton to win if he wasn’t nominated. That he regarded politicians from both parties with contempt was part of the attraction.

Okay guys, I know this sounds crazy but, Jon Stewart could play one from the Trump playbook. AOC flips her position on Gaza, Jon is a Jew against the genocide, locking in the leftists. All the gen z-ers and millennials are in from the get go because perfect nostalgia points, and then Biden steps down and endorses him locking up the dem votes! What a life that would be. A d*sney ending!

He literally can’t endorse Bernie, because that doesn’t solve the problem unless Bernie were to prove his mental acuity. They’re going with Newsome because he’s like young Biden. It’s an easy swap.

…the theory that Earths surface is the post-apocalyptic “stone-age” setting of The Flintstones…

I am going to have to do some research on this. So, did the rich go all Jurassic park with their infinity money to distract the masses, then when the flood waters rose, they forgot to keep the power to the containment on? Wasn’t there an episode where the Jetsons meet the Flinstones?

Nearly all banks are expensive or downright predatory to poor people. Some more than most. I once was overdrawn $0.12 because of a miscalculation. I was hit with a $35 overdraft fee. So now, I’m $35.12 in the hole when my (already not cutting it) paycheck arrives.

PSA: You can turn off “overdraft protection” on your debit/credit card and they will just reject it. If I knew that sooner, I would have saved so much money!!

Okay, then shouldn’t we demand they do? Or at least criticize them when they don’t? We are criticizing them because they didn’t and then they told us we should.

I used to live by there. It was a ghost town ghetto. I liked to imagine what it would have been if this hadn’t happened.

Right to work means they can’t be required to join a union. They / you are thinking of “at will employment”. You may get this confused because some states pass them together.

Yeah, you aren’t maxthrifting and miserpilled enough.

I’m using my app’s built in video player and I guess it didn’t recognize the time stamp. I wanted to give people an idea of the context because I think it’s worth a watch. I’ll give that timestamped portion a watch later.

The title of this video is “An Anarchistic Watches West Wing” or something similar. I only watched 20mins but it was good so far. It’s a criticism of the American Capitalist system, American Democracy (power of the president, presidential hero worship), etc. via the way it’s portrayed in the West Wing.

Warren being better than Biden and Biden (or Warren) being the most left-wing president since FDR are not mutually exclusive.

Warren is left of Biden and, if you’re left-leaning, that is better AND the most left since FDR.

You’re right. Sorry!

If you do a “straight” (1/2 way around) does it count as 1/2?

There’s not a mechanism for it.

Democrats can name anyone as candidate at the convention in August. Biden being the candidate isn’t official yet.

How can you both be wrong? There are 5 months left.

Can they still change their candidate?

Yes, he is not the “official” candidate until the convention in August.

Anyway this is a perfect example to show why a democracy should have more than two parties.

Unfortunately, the way our voting works, it is nearly impossible for a third-party candidate to be viable.

Sure, but didn’t Biden go on a rant of how pro-Israel he is specifically?

How is it not bait and switch or false advertising? They can charge companies for those actions when they do it to customers, why not to applicants?
