I would still vote for her, given her voting record and policy proposals she supports/ed, but I will say the $40 I donated to her campaign are the only political donations I’ve ever regretted making.
I could not have a beer with her, either I’d be thinking about bringing it up the entire time. Actually, I would have a beer with her just to ask her what the hell happened? How does she feel about her legacy? What did it feel like to be the OG Fetterman?
I wouldn’t call it ruined. I rather like knowing how many “edgy” people there are
I think a lot of it is a result of our capitalistic society squeezing as much as it can from us for profit
My turn!
Self-centered with a superiority complex
Lol. Whatever makes you feel better about yourself, and is based on seeing others as inferior
Could you expand on this?
Yep. Just compare how they defended Henry Cuellar against Jessica Cisneros vs how they left Jamaal Bowman hanging.
Honest question to anyone possibly paying more attention. Was there any act from the DNC to defend Bowman? I might’ve missed it but it wouldn’t surprise me to learn they felt differently about supporting one incumbent vs the other
I never said Jim Crow was cool or anything. lol
I consider Black Americans Americans so… America gets the credit
I don’t think we’re understanding each other here. Wasn’t really trying to argue. Sometimes, two things can be true. No?
I was referring moreso to the cultural impact. (Though from your later replies I think you’re just making a joke I’m not getting)
When I think of things I respect about the US and the positive impact its had, I tend to think of how most governments at the time (50s-70s and 70s-90s) seemed to be cracking down on personal free expression (granted that was happening in the US for nonwhite people) and yet Americans (specifically those in counter-culture movements) were able to resist and come out on top. Hell, I’d even throw in comic book creators as having made their mark on moving the needle towards free expression despite loud criticism from conservative mobs.
While yes, what about rock and roll, or hip hop or the ability to criticize politicians you disagree with? That was all cool. Shit, having trouble coming up with more. I’d put the new deal in there too. That shit was gold and created a strong working class. Just sucks how dumb we’ve always been because of the racism and greed (can’t fund good schools for everyone or have public pools or whatever)
Could you expand on what Snowden did that you disagree with?
*puts stone back in pocket*
Ok, that’s totally fair. I would absolutely hate to get a work call from an unknown number. Tha didn’t even cross my mind!
I was interpreting it as simply hearing your phone ring and thinking it could be a spam caller (I really need to set up custom ringtones at some point)
Do you think they could’ve done that and chose not to?
It seems like you’re saying they shouldn’t have done what they did because it wasn’t executed perfectly which feels awfully like what MLK was criticizing in his letter from a Birmingham jail, people that support things in theory but never in reality and that always seem to solely criticize the actions/methods of those fighting for justice
Idk, it’s usually faster for both, no?
You can just answer your friend and say hello. lol
Automatic transmissions for the L
You’re saying they should’ve just resigned? How would we have learned about PRISM without evidence?
I don’t know what you’re referring to about info suppression. Did we learn anything or just that we don’t know everything? How is that more helpful? Or, for who is it more helpful?
It certainly could mean something, but unfortunately it seems like it’s mostly just used for advertising things to… certain people
