  1. Right now it's sticking and the Election is only 8 days away. Trump can get away with murder and flood the zone with BS everyday, but this piece of shit comedian touched a nerve.

  3. Sent this to 2 siblings. 1 is a dem other a republican. Can’t hold back anymore. If you never want to talk to me again I understand. This man is the most horrible person since Hitler and this video shows it. His EXACT words translated to German. Those who forget history are doomed to repeating it. I struggled to decide to send this. However I could not in all honesty hold back. It is bigger than me. I haven’t even voted since 2002. I did not care. I care now. I voted for people who didn’t try to over throw democracy.

  5. @Mole I have no problem with biblical voting if "widows and orphans" take the prime seat that I believe they do in scripture. I have no problem with biblical voting if the Beatitudes receive their rightful place in the discussion. I have no problem with biblical voting if the parable of the Good Samaritan is thought of when casting votes. It's only when people use the bible to justify their -isms that I start to get real cranky.

  6. tell me you've never spent any time in Oregon without telling me you've never spent any time in Oregon. I used to be a partner in a company In Portland. They don't just have conservatives in Portland, they have full on training with Militias on the weekends types up there. They happen to be a minority in Portland, but get really common outside the urban growth bnoundary.

  8. I didn’t give a runny fuck about politics until that orange shitbird came to power. Then I felt kind of forced to start paying attention and having informed opinions. I am hopeful that after January, politics will become boring again and I can go back to not thinking about them at all, much less 24/7 like I am now. It would bring me great joy to never post in this forum again.

  10. I have a cousin that is hardcore MAGA. Her son is in the Navy and is married to a Japanese girl he met while stationed in Okinawa and they have two kids. She blocked me when I asked her how she'll feel about her daughter in law and only two grand babies getting deported.

  13. Michelle Obama launched Dotard into the sun the other day. "I hope you’ll forgive me if I’m a little frustrated that some of us are choosing to ignore Donald Trump’s gross incompetence while asking Kamala to dazzle us at every turn," Obama said. "We expect her to be intelligent and articulate, to have a clear set of policies, to never show too much anger, to prove time and a time again that she belongs. But for Trump, we expect nothing at all, no understanding of policy, no ability to put together a coherent argument, no honesty, no decency, no morals."

  17. A case study that is probably not largely applicable to a broader population: My family had lunch with a young Black college student of mine the other day. His family situation isn’t great. His local Southern Baptist Church took an interest in him years ago and has been highly supportive of him. Many of the people he loves and respects the most are Southern Baptists — and they have been great to him. Their care and investment in him will change his life and the lives of his descendants. Their actions have been admirable and represent the best of humanity. Because of that environment, his mindset is to answer life questions by seeking out the biblical answer. This is his first election and he has been asking trusted older people for their opinions. Most of what he has heard is that the “biblical” answer centers around opposition to abortion. He’s not homophobic nor drawn in by the Trump fake machismo. He’s a thoughtful, intelligent kid trying his best to make good choices. He told us at lunch that he’s unsure but is leaning towards Trump because that is the “biblical” answer. His teenage and early adult life has treated the Trump madness as something normal. Like all of us, we’re products of our environment. I try to keep politics out of my teaching to the extent possible, but this was a good chance outside of the teaching environment to challenge his conception of biblical voting while speaking in his biblical terms. I pointed to the book of James and the discussion of Godly wisdom being pure, impartial, sincere, open to reason, and full of mercy and good fruit. I also pointed to clear and explicit commands about treatment of foreigners, widows, and orphans. Rather than detour down the complexities and unintended (?) consequences of anti-abortion laws, I pointed out that while it’s possible to make a reasonable implicit case for the pro-life position using biblical principles, there are very explicit biblical commands concerning how we treat one another and how we deal with marginalized groups. I think his inclination would be to vote Kamala if not for the influence of those people he looks up to. My hope is that I was able to give him space to see that even using his standards, the answer is still pretty clearly Kamala. I understand that for many on this board, even granting the premise of “biblical” voting sounds horrifying, but our personal value largely define how we vote and it’s often possible to show someone a better way using their own values. We left that conversation with him expressing the strangeness that a convicted felon could be elected. My wife brought up the rape issue. I’m not sure how he’ll vote; there’s a lot of baggage pulling him to Trump but I think he also knows it isn’t the right thing to do.

  18. That's 8% of total subscribers lost over the weekend. And counting. https://www.npr.org/2024/10/28/nx-s1-5168416/washington-post-bezos-endorsement-president-cancellations-resignations all because their absurdly wealthy, cowardly owner wanted to suck up to the wanna-be dictator who's going to lose the election

  21. And Washington DC voted 92% for Biden. I guess it was them that attacked the Capitol on Jan 6. Solid logic there, Lou. If there's one thing right wing terrorists aren't known for its traveling to places where libruls are acting all librul. Little Kyle Rittenhouse was obviously a big lib resident of Minneapolis.

  22. My wife's grandfather ordered all kinds of Trump knives and coins and whatever. Republican his whole life. After January 6th he was pissed. Said Trump was a coward and a loser. He changed his vote. To tell me that so many people have stories like this and I have yet to meet a single person who was like yeah Jan 6 made me vote for the first time ever for Trump. There's just no fucking way that's a thing, and if it is I need someone to show me some data supporting anything like that. This is on top of Dobbs, I haven't seen a single person who wasn't already a fucking magatard excited to vote for abortion bans, there's quite a few people I know who were older women who were single issue abortion voters who realize how fucked things are now and aren't voting for more insane policies. They wanted no abortions, they didn't want women to be sex/baby slaves. Show me the evidence that there is a swell of NEW people who actively are energized by whatever the fuck this hate campaign is. They already had those votes and they are entrenching themselves there so they don't lose them. Moving more extreme alienates the moderates, of which there are a lot. There aren't more extremists. Defectors from the Republican party are real and measurable. Where are these so called new trump voters coming from?

  29. re: 'the largest mass deportation in history'...i just...i mean...wut 😐 the racism and fear is what it is, always been there, no real surprise... but my god, the sheer ignorance and self-immolation of not having even the slightest grasp on the horrific, literally catastrophic economic impact that would have on this country...i don't understand how it's even possible for even the dumbest Americans in 2024 to not understand that! jfc we have literally millions and millions of people doing work in this country that we ALL rely on, in almost every single industry... agriculture, construction, childcare, service, maintenance, hell even the cleaning crews for giant corporation buildings...how, HOW is that not understood?? it's just absolutely BONKERS that these people are holding signs and enthusiastically cheering this plan on 😳 i mean i know maga is full of morons and assholes, but this specific issue is just insane. it would quite literally kneecap our entire economy for a generation.
