| Topic | If Biden had half of Jorgensen's votes in Georgia he would have won it |
| Anteaterking 11/05/20 3:54:42 PM #31 | MacadamianNut3 posted... I have a couple of grade school friends (I grew up in the metro Atlanta area) on Facebook bragging about how they voted for Jorgensen and nobody is replying to them since they're just seeking attention Idk why they think those two things are contradictory. --- |
| Topic | So these Fox News viewer polls are uh...something |
| Anteaterking 11/03/20 6:33:57 PM #4 | That's not viewer polls, aren't they their exit polls/ --- |
| Topic | YR: Biden wins, Trump won't leave the White House, so the SS cap him in the head |
| Anteaterking 11/03/20 6:33:12 PM #4 | I would say that would look pretty bad. --- |
| Topic | When did Ohio become an unsalvageable state? |
| Anteaterking 11/03/20 6:30:10 PM #9 | Endgame posted... The real question is why this fucking state has so much power and basically gets to decide the entire elections. They really didn't this year though. --- |
| Topic | Do you think GWB was worse than Trump? |
| Anteaterking 11/02/20 11:36:50 PM #78 | I think there are arguments for either of them being worse, but I'd say that one thing about Trump is that essentially every bad thing Bush did he would probably have been willing to do. So he might be saved from being the "worse" president by his own incompetence. --- |
| Topic | So let's say Biden gets rid of the electoral college |
| Anteaterking 11/02/20 5:06:42 PM #13 | not without changing to appeal to more people, no. --- |
| Topic | Ugh I can't believe Wikipedia is already saying Trump won |
| Anteaterking 11/01/20 9:26:17 PM #8 | Haven't you used the "getting 2016 and 2020 mixed up" joke a few times already? --- |
| Topic | Republican primaries will be crazy next cycle |
| Anteaterking 11/01/20 9:25:00 PM #22 | KiwiTerraRizing posted... Eventually we get somebody as racist as Trump but sophisticated and intelligent. I'm worried about this, but I do think the lack of sophistication combined with stupidity is part of the "appeal". --- |
| Topic | Thoughts on Hasan Piker? |
| Anteaterking 11/01/20 5:41:00 PM #9 | I like Hasan. He's certainly a leftist, but I think that among people in that sphere (Chapo, etc.) he's the least "in a bubble" which generally leads to better takes imo even if their politics are generally the same. --- |
| Topic | Treasury Secretary Elizabeth Warren? |
| Anteaterking 10/31/20 7:00:17 PM #10 | It looks like in Massachusetts the governor would need a special election in 145 days, so might be "worth" doing regardless. Now that's dependent on whether you want her as treasury secretary regardless. --- |
| Topic | Treasury Secretary Elizabeth Warren? |
| Anteaterking 10/31/20 6:55:31 PM #8 | Doom_Art posted... Regardless of how moderate a Republican MA's governor is I doubt he'd do this Yeah I forgot who the governor was. Oh well. --- |
| Topic | Treasury Secretary Elizabeth Warren? |
| Anteaterking 10/31/20 6:51:54 PM #4 | Then appoint Presley to be the 3rd African American woman senator ever. --- |
| Topic | Woman cast her ballot early before dying of cancer, state will throw it out |
| Anteaterking 10/31/20 1:44:01 PM #29 | Unsugarized_Foo posted... True, but you could be voting for how a certain goal is going to be done. That should be left to the people who will be putting money towards or actually doing the work This is the second time you've mentioned money...you know that your vote isn't weighed by your tax burden, right? --- |
| Topic | Dang, some people here sure are sensitive. |
| Anteaterking 10/31/20 1:30:44 PM #36 | Beastiality is wrong but framing it in the language of "consent" has always seemed strange to me. --- |
| Topic | Woman cast her ballot early before dying of cancer, state will throw it out |
| Anteaterking 10/31/20 1:23:16 PM #16 | I think it should count, but I'm not particularly outraged about it. Compared to most voter suppression/disenfranchisement tactics, this doesn't feel exploitable by candidates. --- |
| Topic | Bernie Sanders Says Democratic Party Has Become a 'Party of Coastal Elites' |
| Anteaterking 10/31/20 12:44:58 PM #13 | Malcrasternus posted... just that Republicans gave slightly more of a s*** Not really. --- |

| Topic | how come people sever friendships because of political ideology? |
| Anteaterking 10/30/20 6:16:19 PM #85 | ColdOne666 posted... Must be a pretty low bar. I guess Trump supporters still don't pass it so? --- |
| Topic | how come people sever friendships because of political ideology? |
| Anteaterking 10/30/20 5:44:46 PM #82 | There's some conflation going on in this topic because the people who are having their friendships severed are in general the extremist ones, so the "Not everyone is an extremist!" line is dumb. --- |
| Topic | IMAGE: does this justify the Electoral College? |
| Anteaterking 10/29/20 7:56:51 PM #6 | |
| Topic | Joe Biden Wins Nickelodeon's Kids' Vote Despite Bot Cheating Attempts |
| Anteaterking 10/28/20 7:39:41 PM #15 | BilalPowell posted... Figured they would in 2000. People thought of him as a kid because he had a famous dad. Yeah, I remember people in my (granted R leaning) elementary school voting for Bush because it would "be cool for a father and son to be president". Sorry, John Quincy Adams. --- |
| Topic | Let's say Biden wins on Tuesday |
| Anteaterking 10/28/20 7:35:44 PM #27 | It won't matter since Republicans told me that COVID will be over the day after the election. --- |
| Topic | Literally what is a faithless elector? |
| Anteaterking 10/28/20 5:54:43 PM #9 | Hexenherz posted... Supreme Court did rule earlier this year that states can take more punitive measures against faithless electors which might hopefully deter it from happening again? (Some) states were already doing it. It was just challenged whether that was unconstitutional. --- |
| Topic | what some theories about cartoons you hate? |
| Anteaterking 10/27/20 9:50:05 PM #2 | Anything past the first coma/purgatory/etc. theory you read just feels stupid. --- |
| Topic | BREAKING: Tucker Carlson will be interviewing Tony Bobulinski tonight. |
| Anteaterking 10/27/20 9:48:36 PM #28 | ohiostate124 posted... And before anyone freaks out about Q But you know that's why Q calls themselves Q right? Same reason. That's 1 of 100 reasons why only an idiot would believe in Q, but still. --- |
| Topic | BREAKING: Tucker Carlson will be interviewing Tony Bobulinski tonight. |
| Anteaterking 10/27/20 9:18:52 PM #23 | You should take him seriously because he has a "Q Clearance" and the Department of Energy has lots of...relevant top secret data to care about in this situation...I guess. --- |
| Topic | If somebody asks to know your age, weight, income, or sexual history... |
| Anteaterking 10/27/20 4:03:08 PM #4 | |
| Topic | What are the chances I'll get shot if I vote for Biden? |
| Anteaterking 10/26/20 11:38:18 PM #2 | Just tell them you're voting for Trump. --- |
| Topic | If Hillary was President she would lose the 2020 election tbh |
| Anteaterking 10/26/20 9:49:32 PM #7 | How does the GOP in 2020 look after a Trump loss in 2016? --- |
| Topic | Pelosi: Democrats will "use every arrow in our quiver" to block SC nom |
| Anteaterking 10/26/20 9:43:31 PM #35 | ElatedVenusaur posted... And they did even less than that! So like what did you want them to do? Find a way to delay the hearings by a few hours? Ultimately I don't think it was going to make a difference. And I don't think their fruitless attempts would make any difference to voters. They bluffed and had nothing to back it up. Oh well. This was decided when RBG died. Republicans are willing to lose the Senate for a justice. --- |
| Topic | Pelosi: Democrats will "use every arrow in our quiver" to block SC nom |
| Anteaterking 10/26/20 9:36:05 PM #27 | There's even less they could do then people were claiming, because ultimately the rules of the Senate don't have to be enforced in a meaningful way. --- |
| Topic | Im literally 30 years old but I look a high schooler |
| Anteaterking 10/26/20 7:06:38 PM #3 | Maybe you shouldn't be a "teacher" if you don't want to be compared to students in looks. --- |
| Topic | people that pretend to be in the military |
| Anteaterking 10/26/20 6:52:30 PM #36 | Esrac posted... You don't need to be directly, materially affected to feel insulted by people lying and pretending they did something you actually did. That's true but in most circumstances being more than just annoyed at people who don't directly harm you or others is a waste of your effort. --- |
| Topic | people that pretend to be in the military |
| Anteaterking 10/26/20 6:14:13 PM #24 | Esrac posted... Are you generally cool with people who deliberately lie, misrepresent themselves, and take credit for things they didnt do for personal gain and acclaim? Nah, but it doesn't impact me personally when people e.g. fake doctorates. It doesn't devalue my own accolades or the work that I did, and mostly to get benefits from it people will at least nominally check that your credentials check out. To be clear, I feel much differently about someone fraudulently trying to access something like VA benefits than "people were nice to this person because he said he was a veteran". Eat More Beef posted... I'm a combat vet, first of all. But don't you feel the same way about veterans who didn't see combat or exaggerate their experiences for sympathy as well? --- |
| Topic | people that pretend to be in the military |
| Anteaterking 10/26/20 5:40:42 PM #19 | Eat More Beef posted...
Why though? How does it impact you? --- |
| Topic | If the electoral college was removed, would there be higher voter turnout? |
| Anteaterking 10/26/20 5:38:24 PM #14 | StarReaper13 posted... Yeah I understand where they clash, but I also think there should be a limit at least for the sake of allowing new, fresher blood to be voted in rather then people who get to just sit down and have a life time position. Term limits tend to incentivize people to use their position to set themselves up for a nice lobbying/other gig post when their term expires. --- |
| Topic | Your preferred coworkers: F this place employees or I love this place employees |
| Anteaterking 10/26/20 5:36:14 PM #8 | I enjoy my job so i tend to enjoy people who also like working there. F this place employees often have legitimate complaints but they also can be the people who complain about everything which isn't always fun to be around. --- |
| Topic | If the electoral college was removed, would there be higher voter turnout? |
| Anteaterking 10/26/20 5:33:18 PM #6 | We should get rid of the electoral college, but some chunk of people who say they don't vote because of it are looking for excuses. --- |
| Topic | people that pretend to be in the military |
| Anteaterking 10/26/20 5:31:10 PM #16 | Idk if it's lamer to be someone who wants to pretend to be military or to be someone who gets upset about stolen valor. --- |
| Topic | Boston ballot drop off box set on fire by giant piece of shit |
| Anteaterking 10/25/20 8:14:12 PM #19 | NinjaWarrior455 posted... I feel like an arsonist wouldn't necessarily care about which side they're particularly harming. They're an arsonist after all Arsonist =/= pyromaniac. --- |
| Topic | C/D lootboxes are predatory especially when it comes to children. |
| Anteaterking 10/25/20 4:44:50 PM #54 | Mr_Karate_II posted... At least baseball cards offer something physical for your money unlike lootboxes The idea that digital goods "aren't worth anything" is stupid though. --- |
| Topic | Burn the Electoral College to the ground. |
| Anteaterking 10/25/20 11:16:47 AM #62 | COVxy posted... But like, even if we were to play this game, I don't think people's best interest actually differs from place to place as much as people will make it seem. People play up that rhetoric only to breed division and allow systems like the current one, one that feeds the needs of those in charge over the needs of the people. Yeah, as I've often said, there are very few "rural vs urban" divides that are explicitly based on where people live. E.g. Abortion isn't a "rural" issue, even if rural areas oppose it more. --- |
| Topic | i will never get why gimmick accounts are a thing. |
| Anteaterking 10/24/20 7:04:48 PM #11 | Shadowplay posted... I liked when we had positive gimmick accounts, like BatmanOnCE, WWEPropaganda, JollyOlRoger, and BillyAssManGunn. Now its just right wing alt-lite bullshit. Yeah the best gimmicks are ones that have effort put into them that are novel in some way. Idk why we need 100 people who are like "Durr hurr I'm going to pretend to be a Trump simp", especially when we know most of them *are* trolling. And then you just have annoying lazy gimmicks like the doge and cate accounts. --- |
