Topic | "Bill and Hillary Clinton normalized Trump" |
Antifar 05/21/18 9:41:20 AM #4 | Darkman124 posted... i think less that they normalized it and more that they created the perception among GOP voters that the dems could 'get away with it' and therfore their own leaders should never be criticized for it either I think that's a good assessment. "Rich and powerful people get away with it" has been the undercurrent of American society since the 90s or so, but in Trump a certain sort of conservative now feels they have one on their side. --- kin to all that throbs |
Topic | "Bill and Hillary Clinton normalized Trump" |
Antifar 05/21/18 9:32:08 AM #1 | http://www.businessinsider.com/bill-hillary-clinton-normalized-trump-2018-5 As the Trump administration corruption scandals mount and yet President Donald Trump's poll numbers continue to tick upward, Democrats ask: Why don't voters care? Doesn't corruption matter? I'm not sure I can get on board with all of this (it has been pointed out that a whole bunch of the Reagan administration got indicted), but... --- kin to all that throbs |
Topic | Why do people hate Obama for again? |
Antifar 05/21/18 9:24:08 AM #37 | If you hate Trump, you should hate the way Obama enabled him by - Ramping up ICE and its use of deportations - Building an unaccountable drone warfare apparatus - Refusing to hold anyone accountable for torture, leading directly to Gina Haspel becoming head of the CIA - Presiding over (and playing a part in) a decline for the Democratic Party at every level --- kin to all that throbs |

Topic | Is it true our leftism is right compared to Europe's left? |
Antifar 05/20/18 9:27:47 PM #7 | It's about having a frame of reference. For decades we haven't has a real leftist presence, and so it's been kinda easy for people to earnestly believe that Democrats and liberals represent the far left of political thought (or cynically label them as such). Remember when people called Obama a communist? Whereas the major countries of Europe all have at least a major social democratic party, and often smaller parties further to the left. --- kin to all that throbs |

School shootings?

Topic | This story sucks: Was Kevin Cooper Framed for Murder? |
Antifar 05/19/18 4:16:49 PM #2 | This is the story of a broken justice system. It appears that an innocent man was framed by sheriffs deputies and is on death row in part because of dishonest cops, sensational media coverage and flawed political leaders including Democrats like Brown and Kamala Harris, the state attorney general before becoming a U.S. senator, who refused to allow newly available DNA testing for a black man convicted of hacking to death a beautiful white family and young neighbor. This was a failure at every level, and it should prompt reflection not just about one man on death row but also about profound inequities in our entire system of justice. Man, wtf is Brown's deal with not allowing testing? Harris too --- kin to all that throbs |
