Is it Too Late to Save the American Experiment?
ThomasinaPaine comments on Jul 15, 2020:
1. A woman was murdered for saying "All Lives Matter" and only fringe right wing publications mentioned it. 2. We're forced to wear masks that honestly can only stop spit in some bizarre mass placebo and no one cared 3. People took over whole sections of cities--treason when right wingers did ...
WilyRickWiles replies on Jul 15, 2020:
#1. And the n-word, according to those right-wing publications. Sure it doesn't mean she should have been murdered, but it does mean you probably should drop any mention of what she said.
I said all lives matter. So Black Lives Matter protesters shot and killed me.
WilyRickWiles comments on Jul 14, 2020:
She also said the n-word!
WilyRickWiles replies on Jul 15, 2020:
@Jaster_Mereel Of course, no one deserves to be murdered, not even criminals.

Probably best to keep one's mouth shut in that situation, but they hardly "attacked" her. Rather, they were respectful and stated the facts about that slogan. Also, how do we know they were "leftists?"
WilyRickWiles replies on Jul 12, 2020:
@SpikeTalon I was talking about the alleged "leftists" keeping their mouths shut. That is, when someone's parent has died is not the most respectful time to make a political point. That lack of respect was enough for Red State to characterize it as an "attack." I'm not saying that speech should be illegal--just that it's in poor taste.

@Jaster_Mereel The protesters never went on their property. And if the couple hadn't built an illegal fence on the edge of their property, the protesters wouldn't have even needed to go through the neighborhood's gate to legally walk through the neighborhood. As for that gate, there's no evidence the protesters damaged it. Regardless, that would be a concern of the association, which the couple has long been in disputes with, often not paying their dues. They are garbage people who have abused their rights and failed to respect the rights of others.

@rway A whole generation of Americans failed to internalize the words "You have done enough. Have you no sense of decency?"
Er... Why isn't there more backlash to what Democrats constantly do?

Why would an educated young-to-middle aged suburban-to-urban cosmopolitan person listen to the reactionary screeches of a party of elderly white rural nativists?

@rway "abandon the underlying principles in the attempt to start from scratch" That is where you have failed to understand.

@rway I've also found that my attempts to understand my right wing relatives and acquaintances have not been reciprocated. At some point, especially as one's generation comes of age and they approach the second half of their life, one has to move on and try to get the interests of their generation reflected in public policy. Late boomers have had representation in the White House for half of their lives! Enough of their increasingly demented moral panics!

WilyRickWiles replies on Jul 9, 2020:
@rway 1. Just because those on the right see themselves as victims, does not mean they are any less guilty. 2. The extent of our polarisation is a result of political strategies pursued by both parties, which people on the left at least are trying to overcome in the long term. 3. Regardless, it is a fact that we are polarized and have real cultural differences along those lines.

@Boardwine I guess it's all the same, kind of like how the National Review and conservative movement figures considered rolling back the New Deal and protecting Jim Crow as morally equivalent "states rights" issues.

Penrodster comments on Jul 5, 2020:
That last data point is seriously discontiguous. If I see that I recheck the setup, rerun the data point and try again on a different set of equipment. Don't get me wrong, I can easily see satisfaction dropping but this data looks hokey and needs some reviewing before publishing to the world.

Could Women Not Do These 9 Things in 1971?
Boardwine comments on Jul 5, 2020:
Ok. 1) Women shouldn’t be on the front lines. 2) Obviously medical insurance would cost a woman more. The whole child birth thing. The rest was just normal stupid shit left over from the past and has been corrected. Or should we go tear down a statue? Fucking commie.
