| Doom_Art 02/08/24 12:50:10 AM #55 | Using the bombs as a tool to end the war quickly by shocking and demoralizing Japan was the right move.
I would advise anyone who believes otherwise to look up what happened to Japanese civilians in the Battles of Iwo Jima and Okinawa, then read up on how Operation Downfall would've gone. The bombs ended the war with far less bloodshed than those alternatives. haloiscoolisbak posted... Wasn't the second one just mainly to show USSR they've got more than just one Stalin already knew about the US nuclear program. Truman had shared details with him a while before the bombings. The real reason for the second bomb was the illustrate the point to the Japanese that "we did this to you and we can keep doing it until you surrender" --- Not removing this until Mega Man 64 is released on the Wii Virtual Console.

This shit here is why I don't like Sanders. Bro wants to be all progressive and shit and he's had literal decades of making inroads towards a progressive Democratic party and what does he do? Be Independent until it suits him to use the Dem party apparatus to run for president. Like, no shit the party isn't just going to welcome you with open arms.I remember in 2016 not just progressive Dems like Barney Frank but also progressive independents like Ralph Nader dumping on Bernie for this exact reason. He's been in Congress since the early 90s and had nothing to show for it He's a man who prefers to talk about the problems he cares about as opposed to actually getting his hands dirty and fixing them. [LFAQs-redacted-quote] The fact that he doubled down on the socialism branding was so stupid and such bad politics. Because he's not really a socialist. He's a social democrat.

| Topic | My Mom is a cancer survivor and tearfully told me today that it might be back. |
| Doom_Art 02/04/24 11:06:17 PM #1 | She had kidney cancer in 2018 (coincidentally, she discovered it just as I recovered from Hodgkin's Lymphoma). She ended up having the entire kidney removed and was given an all clear after that. For the last several years she's had intermittent scans and blood work to keep an eye on things and nothing has popped up.
During her final CT scan late last year apparently something seemed off, so her oncologist ordered an MRI to get a closer look at things. Apparently there was a sizable mass discovered near where her kidney used to be, right near her liver. She has an appointment with her oncologist next week and has been a wreck since she found out. I'll admit I'm incredibly nervous myself. Particularly since this didn't show up on previous scans, I don't know what that means for the speed this thing popped up/spread. I spent a good chunk of my 20s caught up in my own personal crap, so now that I have a good career lined up with more free time/money I was looking forward to spending more time with her once I graduated college this spring. I thought I had more time. Maybe I will. I certainly hope. I hope it's nothing or it's something that can be fixed or treated.

Well yeah I thought like that too until Hillary dropped it in 2016.Biden won last year without winning either NC or SC Obama won in 2012 without winning either of them too SC is something they shouldn't bother with. NC is like how Georgia was in 2020. It's a nice buffer if you run your numbers up, but it's not necessary for a path to victory. If Dems hold their safe states and win WI, MI, and PA then that's 270.

Most of those governors you've mentioned are too far left in the perception of the public to be able to win some of the swing states.Ah yes, noted safe blue states like Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Georgia. TurtleInFreedom posted... Some of the older governors there don't have that much of a presense in national politics yetNo one knew who Barack Obama was in early 2004. TurtleInFreedom posted... Ossoff is 36, Americans aren't going to try a 40 year old for president.The country that fans itself over young/handsome politicians like JFK, Clinton, and Obama would certainly vote for a 40 year old incumbent senator. TurtleInFreedom posted... As for foreign policy, if the next presidential candidate doesn't understand the dynamics of the developing nations in the Indo-Pacific, Biden's IRA will have been for nothing. Ossoff was the junior senator who went around the Pacific trying to lay ground for the IRA and the CHIPS act.Okay and that's nice but voters aren't going to care about Indo-Pacific geopolitical dynamics. That's just not a thing most people base their vote on. TurtleInFreedom posted... Overall, sure, the people you've listed might be good from the perspective of the party, but in the general it's a different question.You didn't really answer the question. You just restated your original point and said vagaries like "too left" TurtleInFreedom posted... Why do you think they would do good in the general, if that's what you're asserting?Each of the candidates I listed has either demonstrated the capability of winning elections in swing states or regions where Democrats need to win. In the case of Newsom and Pritzker, even though they're from pretty solidly blue states, they've demonstrated the ability to utilize their respective majorities extremely effectively and communicate their policies to a national audience. --- Not removing this until Mega Man 64 is released on the Wii Virtual Console.
