If I learned anything playing Risk, is that you are fucked if you are in the lead… And especially fucked if you go on an offensive.

Maybe Mexico should have invaded Texas after George Floyd.

Its shocking how so much Russia defending sounds just like the Bush excuses for Iraq. “Well we didn’t find weapons of mass destruction, but the leader was just really awful so we had to, right?”

Incorporating an HOA or a company making a retirement village is not really the same as Amazon or Monsanto funding some sort of handshake with the state government to make some sort of lawless zone for them to take advantage of.

We tried to resolve this with legislation and the right wing crazies killed it each time. It’s not like the average Democratic voter wants an undocumented underclass. The business interests do. And the GOP leadership gets to fund raise on the caravans.

Most Americans want a better life for these people. Step one isn’t to spend a trillion dollars to deport them all.

In theory, the death penalty makes some sense. It’s a right the government reserves for itself (violence) and I think in some contexts it makes sense to be on the table. In practice, it’s more expensive than a life sentence, and it’s a blunt and racist tool to maintain unjust social and state power.

I wish every governor and president commuted 95% of death penalty situations. It’s a major injustice that most executions were carried out, even for those who belief it’s something the government should be doing.

As a kid with controlling parents? Fantasy and science fiction were always my escapes. When we finally got this game it was my everything. Little did I know the sequel had already been out for a while. I still have so much of the game memorized. Every few years I pull out the n64 and play it again…

Right but then someone who doesn’t share your cult might try to get medical care you disagree with or something.

People on the internet: well he was never indicted and convicted so we should let it all go

Me: so what was all that money for? Braces?

Newspaper and politicians are never going to challenge capitalism.

That’s not the point of my argument. My point is that Republicans warned themselves they would lose MORE women and minorities if they didn’t move away from harsh immigration discussions and conservative social policies.

And then Trump did the opposite and made gains with those voters.

Lest we all forget, Trump took the well considered Romney post mortem, threw it in the trash, pissed on it, then gradually built a coalition of, checks notes… White women and men of color. For fucks sake.

As long as it wasn’t in a row

“Baseless? So they could be true and there is just no evidence at all?”

Why do we need laws against standing next to golf courses with guns? It’s already illegal to shoot the president.

This is hard to verify on Google. What did he do?

Yield and volume are also very important factors.

Everything has to be connected to the deeper case that Ms. Harris is weak and a phony and doesn’t truly care about the country or the middle class. The scattershot Trump attacks on Harris need to be refocused on these character attributes.

Even the argument as stated in the essay is pretty stupid. Yeah the John Kerry Sail Surfing angle probably won’t work on her. Sorry.

Don’t worry, he probably has some arrangement to only go like once. A month.

The business model for many many many businesses is to give the rich a good deal to encourage more business, and to give the poor a mediocre to poor deal, because they have less options and the volume is lower.
