I see NOS is talking in circles again. Don’t look for consistency, folks— there’s no principles to discern. It’s pure political tribalism. When it’s s...
The free market. The deus ex machina of all crypto-plutocrats. That wonderful abstract bullshit reason given whenever you don’t want the government to...
Yeah. I at least applaud that he takes climate change as the existential threat that it is. Maybe that brings some sanity to the Republicans, if only ...
True— but money-grubbing conservatives existed during Romney and McCain’s and Bush and Reagan’s time too. Didn’t see them at the DNC. Then again, thos...
So RFK will drop out on Friday, and will endorse Trump. Big surprise. Shows what a spineless weirdo he always has been, and now solidifies his place a...
:up: I get it. Trump bring re-elected would be a disaster. I very much hope he loses and will be voting against him. But I still very much dislike the...
DNC Convention. Boring, but Dems have bigger stars than the Republicans — and the Repubs hate that. Trump most of all— hence the endless talk about cr...
Price controls are an excellent idea. Harris keeps surprising me. If she keeps this up, she’ll win easily. The fact that every moronic armchair politi...
Maybe stop reading — and regurgitating — the Daily Mail. Several of your numbers are wrong, and it’s obvious to any reader that you’ve bought into the...
Whenever you see my previous screen name? :lol: Even your jabs don’t make sense. They can’t all be on the level of reading the NY Post for my opinions...
I get your point, but toxicity in general is important. As @"Benkei" pointed out, the cause is mostly the same: profits over people. So the rate at wh...
Who’s ignoring it? I hear about things like PFAS and microplastics and pesticides, etc., all the time. So I suppose that’s “alarmism” as well. But of ...
Co-ops are communist. Think of it that way. Far closer to anything in the USSR or China. Simplified a bit, but it’s one way to think of the matter if ...
It’s not ethereal— it’s overwhelmingly supported by evidence, and also happening all around us. The effects are at least as obvious (if not more so) t...
:up: Harris’s crowds are big. He doesn’t like that — so it doesn’t exist. He lost the election — but he can’t lose, so it didn’t happen. What’s more p...
Kramer vs. Kramer Good movie, but I don’t see how it was both the best picture winner and top grossing film of 1979. Because it took me so long to wat...
Substantive points like… Yeah, you let me know too. You’re the one that said you aren’t very familiar with his policies. So why you’re now arguing abo...
:up: Same old arguments: communism has killed 100 million people. Capitalism has killed more people and responsible for slavery, but that’s not really...
I’ve heard nothing from him so far, but as you know he has no principles, so — like with project 2025 — if it becomes a political liability he may jus...
Oh boy, I can’t wait to hear more from bland blowhards about how Walz is “too far left” and how Harris should move more to the “middle” because it’s s...
Typical Trump cultist response: the guy repeating Fox News talking points accuses his opponent of— wait for it— repeating “talking points.” Predictabl...
Can we do away with the “I’m not biased, I’m just a straight shooter.” No one believes that. It’s ridiculous. I’m not a member of either political par...
Climate change deniers make up nearly a quarter of US Congress Speaking of Oreskes: Interesting article. They spell it out in undeniable terms. But it...
That’s part of it. He’s also very Twitter-minded, and the biggest voices on there are Trump trolls and the alt-right. If it were SNL, it would have be...
Glad you liked the book. Yes, it is bizarre, but it’s understandable when you look at it. In the same way that Christian fundamentalists deny evolutio...
Because some of the biggest donors to the Republicans are fossil fuel giants. Not only that, but they own think tanks and election infrastructure as w...
:up: If I lived in a safe state, like Massachusetts, I’d vote for West as well. But since I don’t (I’m in swingy New Hampshire), I’m not throwing my v...
So you’ve settled on the tired, fossilized view — that passes as sophisticated but is in fact lazy and absurd — which absolves you of having to know a...
:up: It was very easy to predict that Trump, if he lost, would claim it was stolen. He’s been doing it since Ted Cruz won Iowa. And he only lost the p...
