A woman was just pushed to her death in front of a train by a homeless man with a rap sheet longer than his arm in and out of hospitals and you want us to feel safe around these nutters?

Such a weird event and the exact same thing happened in Brussels on the same day.
Luckily in Brussels the train stopped in time.

That's utterly disgraceful from a former President and particularly disgraceful from the guy who incited the incident and was in power at the time. Should be hung for treason that cunt.

Nah, he's digging his hole and Republicans are hopefully separating themselves from him. Don't get me wrong. I don't trust Republicans just like I don't trust Democrats. They're both assholes and don't give a fuck. Also I'm not a Republican. I'm registered Republican however temporarily to get Sleepy Joe and his authoritarian allies out of power. Liberal policies overwhelmingly do not  work. I've witnessed it first hand.

[Potato]

What the fuck are you talking about? You proudly displayed your MAGA hat not two weeks ago, are you telling me that now you have changed stripes YET AGAIN?

Go back in this thread, read your rants and then tell me you're not coming off as unhinged at best and completely fucking mental at worst.

Here is some advice: Unplug from the internet for a week and reflect on what effect any of this shit has on your real life. Come back to me and then tell me whether you now give a shit about this garbage any more.

Vote Republican, vote Democrat, I don't care, but at least do it for the right reasons. Everything you have said to justify your current political beliefs is just bullshit window dressing.

I'm done with this conversation and I hope you take the time to reflect on all the shit you have said in the past few weeks and learn from it.

[Himu]

None of this impacts you in real life, says the non-American who cannot understand my viewpoints and characterizes them as window dressing. You base your entire viewpoint on America and American life on things you read from the internet. Oh no, I have a MAGA hat. It must mean I worship Trump. See?

Based on something you read on the web. Please take your own advice and take a break from the internet and realize that people have our own views beyond your own bubble.

[Himu]

The Biden administration even more than NY politics shows the failure of progressivism as an political force. So much catering to activists and the progressive caucus huahuahua. Get humbled you bubble living smug progs. I lick your tears. How ineffectual how nothing you do works nor commands respect.

I'm pretty sure I had to spend a lot of time a couple of years ago convincing you that even though the Democrats weren't progressive enough for you, you should still vote for them.

Yup, until I moved to New York and had to learn what dealing with progressive policy was really like. Hard sell after that.

My big thing about this thread is that it's full non-Americans. It's like, who the fuck are you? The Democrats are utterly, utterly incompetent both in policy and governing. Majority of Americans agree. Look at Biden's numbers. He's a shitshow. Now, imagine you're me. What do? You've lived a lifetime of Democratic failure. Maybe if the Democrats weren't so fucking bad people wouldn't consider Republicans? The world may never know. The two party system forces you to pick between these extremes. Thankfully I don't have to swallow all of their vomit. Libertarians are also an option but they're not a viable, legitimate option. Then there's also not voting. I did not vote in the fall election and have not voted since October 2020. Since change is impossible and there's only two binary choices anyways, you might as well not participate and choose to not vote for anything but local politics.

Take Potato. Guy goes on a fucking RANT about how blah blah blah you're a republican blah blah when this very page I made fun of Republican hypocrisy! Neither party looks out for American interests and only expresses their stupid fucking agendas and I'll be damned if I'm chastised by a bunch of a fucking foreigners.

The two party system baby!

In early 2021, Democratic strength reached levels not seen in nearly a decade. By the third quarter, those Democratic gains evaporated as Biden's job approval declined. The political winds continued to become more favorable to Republicans in the fourth quarter, giving the GOP an advantage over Democrats larger than any they had achieved in more than 25 years

If libertarian party were smart they'd use the vaccine mandates and economic conservatism as an olive branch towards black Americans to help build their party. Instead they do this. Thank God you don't have to be a part of the LP to be libertarian.

[benjipwns]

shosta got his op-ed published in the local rag:

If California is ever going to achieve true equity, the state must require parents to give away their children.

Today’s Californians often hold up equity — the idea of a just society completely free from bias — as our greatest value. Gov. Gavin Newsom says he makes decisions through “an equity lens.” Institutions from dance ensembles to tech companies have publicly pledged themselves to equity, along with diversity and inclusion.

But their promises of newly equitable systems are no match for the power of parents.

Fathers and mothers with greater wealth, education or other resources are more likely to transfer these advantages to their children, compounding privilege over generations. As a result, children of less advantaged parents face an uphill struggle, social mobility has stalled and democracy has been corrupted. More Californians are giving up on the dream; a recent Public Policy Institute of California poll found declining belief in the notion that you can get ahead through hard work.

My solution is simple, and while we wait for the legislation to pass, we can act now: The rich should give their children to the poor, and the poor should give their children to the rich. Homeowners might swap children with their homeless neighbors.

Now, I recognize that some naysayers, hopelessly attached to their privilege, will dismiss such a policy as ghastly, even totalitarian. But my proposal is quite modest, a fusion of traditional philosophy and today’s most common political obsessions.

Perhaps such coercion sounds dystopian. But just imagine the solidarity that universal orphanhood would create. Wouldn’t children, raised in one system, find it easier to collaborate on climate change and other global problems?

Now, I don’t expect universal support for universal orphanhood. A few contrarians, lost in the empty chasm between American extremes, might object to this rational proposal on emotional grounds. They might argue that pursuing your own conception of family is fundamental to freedom. Or that our differences and biases, for all the damage they can do, also give human life much of its meaning.

They also may suggest that people don’t really want to start or finish at the same point in life. They may even say that what we really desire is what the title orphan of the musical “Annie” insisted upon: “I didn’t want to be just another orphan, Mr. Warbucks. I wanted to believe I was special.”

But you shouldn’t pay those critics any mind. Because they just can’t see how our relentless pursuit of equity might birth a brave new world.

[benjipwns]

For Himu:

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) announced Tuesday that she has raised $21.6 million since launching her gubernatorial campaign in mid-August, a hefty haul establishing her as the front-runner in the race’s Democratic primary.

Hochul’s campaign said it is going forward with $21.3 million in the bank and touted its five-month haul as “record-setting.” The campaign also drew donations from every one of New York’s 62 counties.

The fundraising haul underscores Hochul’s edge in the primary, which pits her against New York City Public Advocate Jumaane Williams and Rep. Thomas Suozzi, who represents a district in Long Island. Already, her campaign prowess is believed to have helped nudge state Attorney General Letitia James (D) out of the race and kept New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio (D) on the sidelines.

Williams and Suozzi have not yet publicly disclosed their fundraising, but an adviser for Suozzi told The New York Times that he had taken in more than $3 million since launching his campaign in November and transferred another $2 million from his congressional campaign account.

ALBANY – Gov. Kathy Hochul’s lead in the Democratic primary for governor of New York has grown to over 30 points beyond her nearest challenger now that state Attorney General Letitia James has dropped out of the race, according to a new poll released Tuesday.

New York’s first female governor captured the support of 46 percent of Democratic voters when asked in a Siena College survey who they would vote for if the primary election – scheduled for June 2022 – was held today.

That places her 34 points ahead of second place challenger, former Mayor Bill de Blasio – who hasn’t even officially announced his candidacy. He netted 12 percent in response to the same question.

New York City Public Advocate Jumaane Williams received 11 percent, followed by Long Island Rep. Tom Suozzi, trailing with six percent.

Meanwhile, Hochul’s biggest support demographic comes from upstate, with 65 percent of primary voters backing her campaign.

Not one challenger – de Blasio, Williams or Suozzi – broke double digits in upstate.

The governor’s favorability among all voters stands at 45 percent compared to 29 percent of voters who have an unfavorable opinion of her and 25 percent who said they either don’t know or have no opinion.

It’s even higher among Democrats – 60 percent view her favorably, compared to 19 percent who said they have an unfavorable opinion of her.
