Republicans didn't actually mean that, and if they did, who cares, it'd never happen anyway, but let's get back to the evil demonrats!

I didn't say that. The stupid republicans who said that definitely meant it, but reality prevents it. There are layers between them and the actual launching of nukes. Even the president has layers between himself and the actual launching of nukes. Also, since they're such rabid supporters of israel, israel themselves who instruct them not to nuke because, again, israel is right there and would get hit with fallout. I know you have a script in your mind about how all conversations go on the internet, but please read my post and respond to it instead of substituting in your own strawman.

The console companies want to eventually move things to the cloud and that's where the real "fun" begins. You pay a subscription fee to never own any of your games ever again. They could even make it so that you pay for the time you use the service like "it's just $1 per hour, bro! It's a better deal than the arcade back in the day, especially if you account for inflation!!" and then they can add surge pricing if more people are using the service and "it's better than having to wait in line for the machine like we had to in the arcade days!"

Looks like something out of a Japanese game show.

lmfao, anything to defend Republicans, as per usual.

What the hell are you talking about?

You mean that other generations had kids, so their income per household would just be smaller?

Well it depends on what they mean by "adjusted by household". There are a couple of things I can think of, but neither are a good thing for the younger generations.

ClayGuida posted...

Not really. Republicans have openly flouted just nuking gaza.

Stupid republicans can talk about that all they want, but that would never happen, not only because of the geopolitical ramifications, but also because israel is right there and would be eating the fallout so they wouldn't allow it. Even if the blast and fallout could be entirely contained within Gaza, they wouldn't allow it because israel wants that land for themselves.

The point is that Biden and Trump is that

Replubcians ads Hard line pro Israel. They do not care about anything in the Middle East.

Where as Dems softly support Israel. But they do listen to criticism about Israel and do believe in two state land policy.

Remember Bibi wants replubcian to win because there will be no criticism towards from the USA.

I wouldn't call this "soft support": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=86Nrv5izaTs

The two state proposal is a carrot hung in front of Palestinians that will never actually be given to them. It's a delay and pacify tactic that doubles as a cover for all the actions that the US takes directly against that goal, so they can claim "we tried!!" It's complete bullshit and it's strange that anyone believes the US is sincere in this stance.

*adjusted by household
Also, you'd have to trust their inflation numbers which -- considering they think cumulative inflation since 2020 is only like 20% -- I'm not sure you can trust them.

You haven't explained how it was undemocratic. Did the DNC overturn ballots? Did they disallow Bernie to be on the ballot?

https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2017/11/02/clinton-brazile-hacks-2016-215774/

Plus big media running narratives to attack bernie and his supporters (you can still see "bernie bros" being parroted here) and pretending that hillary won from the start by counting superdelegates in her favor.

DrizztLink posted...

Seems like it would be a lot more productive to try and focus on fixing it in 2024 instead of 2016.

Indeed. Which is why the biden administration should learn how to get more votes instead of repeating the strategy from 2016 where you finger wag at voters, ignore them, and then shame them if you lose.

Euripides posted...

This isn't the gotcha you thought it was

Cool, neither was your post in the first place. Undemocratic action doesn't just take the form of thugs beating you up.

BlueKat posted...

Eh, idk about this. Trump literally came out and told Israel to finish them off already. I think if he was president, things would be a little more agressive

Then you could claim that the trolley moves faster on the trump track, but the number of dead Palestinians would be the same.

Euripides posted...

I remember when I went to vote for Bernie at my primary but a group of DNC thugs beat me up and forced me to vote for Biden

Did you also get beat up by electoral college thugs when you went to vote for hillary in the general?

DrizztLink posted...

So that's how they are at accepting loss.

Thank you.

I accepted that the system has been lost to corruption a long time ago. Doesn't mean I'm not allowed to point it out. It doesn't seem like you care about any of that and you just want to score a "gotcha" on the internet. Enjoy, I guess?

DrizztLink posted...

That's not answering the question I asked, old boy.

It is, but I guess it wasn't straightforward enough for you. Pointing out that bernie lost because of the democrat-controlled party primary process is like pointing out that hillary lost because of the electoral college. It has nothing to do with "accepting loss", it's merely pointing out that the system is undemocratic.

DrizztLink posted...

And Bernie Bros?

How about them when it comes to accepting loss?

I didn't realize the general election was controlled by a party.

Shadow_Don posted...

Because you're literally threatening us with the prospect of a Trump presidency.

I mean your actual strategy here is "do this or trump wins and we all suffer"

That's literally the democratic party strategy: "vote for us or trump wins and we all suffer"
and when trump is gone, then just replace "trump" with the name of the next monster of the week and that's the new democratic party strategy.

I'm not threatening anything. I vote for democrats down the ballot every single election and I never tell anyone how to vote. I'm merely pointing out that upsetting voters, ignoring their concerns, insulting them, demanding they vote the way you want them to, shaming them, etc will not win you votes. I'm also pointing out that democrats will blame everyone but themselves for losing.

Not even accurate. The number of dead Palestinians is the same on the biden track. The reason is that israel's goal is to completely take over Palestinian land 100% no matter what. Regardless, this is a false dichotomy, unless you want to argue that biden just *has to* support genocide. Would be interested in hearing why you think that is the case.

Dathrowed1 posted...

Easily. Gaza ranks low on the concerns of the citizens of the US

Yet if biden loses the election then the people who protested his support for genocide would be the ones blamed for trump winning.

DrizztLink posted...

Groovy toovy, now are you ready to join everyone in 2024?

I love how you and others are ignoring that my first post on this particular subject was in response to someone pointing out that hillary had more primary votes than bernie. Somehow they're not the one stuck in the past. I guess my mistake is responding to people.

Imagine if the general election was run like party primaries. A private company controls the process and the states vote on different dates, meaning that the race would often be decided before many states even get to vote. Utterly ridiculous.

Im being told im over confident and smug by a dude who STILL BELIEVES IN 2016 BERNIE IN 2024

Am in the twilight zone? Theres no way this is an actual conversation

Sorry you can't handle the facts. I was merely responding to Shadow_Don saying that hillary had more primary votes than bernie and then you decided to jump in with your "OMG BERNIE BROS!!!!!" shtick.

ssb_yunglink2 posted...

Or maybe Bernie was just never popular enough to win a fucking primary much less a general election

Good thing we won with hillary. Seriously, you're very confident and smug for someone so wrong. 2016 should have shut up people like you, but it only made you people louder.

ssb_yunglink2 posted...

Every single argument you make about bernie always ends with him being the poor victim of an evil dem conspiracy

Do you also think project 2025 is just a conspiracy theory? Turns out people actually do conspire to do things in real life sometimes.

EPR-radar posted...

This. The GOP noise machine and a whole pile of "centrist" media GOP-enablers would have hit Bernie like a ton of bricks the moment he became nominee, and the US is still the country that let Occupy Wall Street sink without a trace.

Just like how they crushed Obama on this progressive campaign. Oh wait.

ssb_yunglink2 posted...

the person your argument is about literally got destroyed in his own primaries

You dont get to talk about destroying arguments

"His own primaries" that were controlled by the democratic party that wanted hillary to win. Yeah, totally "his". Get real.

Heineken14 posted...

*dismissive wank*

If it makes you feel better about your argument getting destroyed, go on ahead.

Heineken14 posted...

Same polling that said Hillary would beat Donnie?

No, those polls were much closer. You're aware that polls have a margin of error, right? It'd make sense to pick the candidate with the widest margin of victory, but then diehard democrats didn't care about that, they had their queen that they wanted to carry to the throne.

ssb_yunglink2 posted...

This different audience being people that arent registered democrats

yes that is absolutely absurd to think bernie would do better among those people

and yet the polling showed this to be the case.

ssb_yunglink2 posted...

Oh boy are you gonna do some more gymnastics about how Bernie would somehow perform better in a general election than his own partys primary

That is such an absurd idea

https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2016/may/29/bernie-sanders/bernie-sanders-says-he-polls-better-against-donald/

Different audiences produce different results. It's not an absurd idea at all.

Shadow_Don posted...

Hillary got more votes than Bernie

party controlled primaries =/= general election

The bare minimum of a politician's job is to get votes. That's his responsibility. Also, his decrepit ass didn't have to run in 2020, but I guess he's so desperate for the presidency that he just had to run for the position at his advanced age instead of retiring and enjoying life.

Would I ever!

It's obviously exaggerated for effect, but it's true that houses were cheaper when compared to income and that groceries were cheaper as well. Hell, even just the period before the pandemic and after the pandemic showed major and obvious price increases and not just coincidentally, trump had given huge tax cuts and lots of money to rich people. It's just pure naked greed.
