  1. I generally agree with this, except that Johnny Sack will never tire of owning the libs. He'd gladly let Trump take every possession he has except for a computer and modem so he could keep dunking on libs online. But he's just one guy.
  2. What are you, some sort of cop? You've got to tell us if you are, it's in the Constitution.
  3. That reminds me, I need to create a mutelist of the posters who refuse to recognize reality even as it's punching us in the face.
  4. He's gotta stay fat to keep the benevolent mob boss look going.
  5. Pritzker should be the early favorite to be the next nominee. He's got the billionaire advantage and the big ol' boy advantage and has done a good job in the current gig. He's also been substantially more progressive than Newsom, but won't come with the "California liberal" baggage. Yeah Illinois politician has its own baggage, but it's not as big a drag in national elections.
  6. I thought you weren't Icono?
  7. The question recurs, what will satisfy them? Simply this: We must not only let them alone, but we must somehow, convince them that we do let them alone. This, we know by experience, is no easy task. We have been so trying to convince them from the very beginning of our organization, but with no success. In all our platforms and speeches we have constantly protested our purpose to let them alone; but this has had no tendency to convince them. Alike unavailing to convince them, is the fact that they have never detected a man of us in any attempt to disturb them. These natural, and apparently adequate means all failing, what will convince them? This, and this only: cease to call slavery wrong, and join them in calling it right. And this must be done thoroughly - done in acts as well as in words. Silence will not be tolerated - we must place ourselves avowedly with them. Senator Douglas' new sedition law must be enacted and enforced, suppressing all declarations that slavery is wrong, whether made in politics, in presses, in pulpits, or in private. We must arrest and return their fugitive slaves with greedy pleasure. We must pull down our Free State constitutions. The whole atmosphere must be disinfected from all taint of opposition to slavery, before they will cease to believe that all their troubles proceed from us. I am quite aware they do not state their case precisely in this way. Most of them would probably say to us, "Let us alone, do nothing to us, and say what you please about slavery." But we do let them alone - have never disturbed them - so that, after all, it is what we say, which dissatisfies them. They will continue to accuse us of doing, until we cease saying.
  8. It's literally the same 3 guys, over and over and over again. And we usually give Chooky a long leash.
  9. The filibuster was literally made by accident.
  10. Don’t you fucking litter this board with Pam Keith conspiracy theories.
  11. Sadly, the actual dumbest people are the people running the Democratic party: If Trump has half a brain, he'll never actually do anything to oppress these morons because they're the fucking Washington Generals of politics.
  12. Goddamnit Penelope, stop it.
  13. The point I was trying to make wasn't that people shouldn't leave, but that they shouldn't go to Threads.
  14. Yeah man, I did too. But I didn't go to another place that's going to be just as bad for the exact same reasons in six months.
  15. They weren't even quiet with their complaints and it was a media-led campaign that forced Biden out of the race.
  16. I don't really see much point in discussing something the GOP is going to have less than zero interest in ever addressing.
  17. There's something very darkly funny about all of the more general conspiracy theories (i.e. how government is just for the oligarchs) are very openly coming to pass, and it's being implemented and cheered on by those very same conspiracy theorists.
  18. Only kid here, with a disabled mom (though she can mostly still take care of herself), plenty of student loan debt and a mortgage I gotta pay. Kamala's proposal to have medicare cover home health care would've been a fucking godsend. Honestly, no fucking clue what I'm going to do now when my mom can no longer take care of herself.
  19. I honestly have no idea why so many people left twitter for another shittier platform run by another shitty billionaire. Fuck Threads.
  20. See this is how you know Johnny is trolling. He knows there's no real consequence to the state or its agents for unlawful searches and seizures. No accountability. He's bragging about that.
  21. Remember when Elon restored the account of a guy who had posted CSAM? That was definitely cool and good.
  22. I'm not just talking about the goddamned DNC and you're fucking smart enough to understand what I am talking about.
