One off marches don’t work. If it makes you feel good to attend-by all means. But most folks who go to these marches don’t do anything other than attending marches. It’s not enough to defeat an entrenched, authoritarian regime.

People on this site are becoming just as testy and unpleasant as those on the bad place. Even folks with whom you agree are eager to treat you like you’re stupid if you have the temerity to ask a question about what they’ve written. It’s really sad, how intolerant we’ve become.

Your department is the School of Human Inquiry, FFS.

I’m glad I’m not one of your students.

This is why I asked for clarification. I guess that makes me stupid.

If you want to use that as an excuse to treat people badly, that’s on you. It was clear that folks didn’t understand your distinction. Why be a jerk about it? You had an opportunity to teach folks something, and instead you acted like a jerk because we’re “not in a classroom.”

I don’t know what this means. Do you employ this kind of sarcasm with your students? It’s not an effective teaching tool.

If you think spunkiness is going to defeat authoritarianism, I’m afraid you are sadly mistaken.

Whatever makes you feel good.

So you’re speaking about the population of LA as a whole, not just the folks who voted? Is that the distinction here?

But this man is a professor of history at LA Tech, according to his heading.

How will this help in any way? If people don’t STAY in the streets past a one day march, these types of marches are purely performative.

Is there a source you can share disputing this claim, because even the BBC site says that Trump garnered 60% of the vote. I’ve looked at multiple sites, and they all cite this 60% figure.

What will Hakeem Jeffries’ legacy be?

Just so everybody knows, Gallego refuses to do town halls in Phoenix, the biggest city in AZ, the state he represents, because his own constituents know what a poser he is and he’s afraid to face them.

His work is done.

Except, that’s not what happened

This is an excellent thread. So many folks don’t understand that diplomacy is, indeed, an art.

When you can’t find a job, you join the military.

Vichy Dems.

He’s always been a good baseball player and a horrible person. We let male sports players get away with all sorts of awful behavior if they entertain us.

Wait-I thought there weren’t anymore files, and the files that don’t exist that they’re now going to release are just duplicates, anyway. 🤔

Quoting Stew Peters, does that count? Keeping a Nazi tattoo way past the point when you know it’s a Nazi tattoo and then having it hastily removed during a campaign, does that count? Working for a mercenary organization accused of horrific warcrimes, does that count?

But how do we know it’s really him? This isn’t a snarky question-I’m truly curious.

This looks like an Ai generated profile.

Who asked who for what, now? Unreal.

There is nothing this man won’t excuse if Trump is involved.

I’m annoyed that I actually agree with the premise here. Doctors ARE woefully undereducated about nutrition.

Nobody better EVER talk to me about Hilary Clinton and Benghazi EVER again after the shameful way the administration has abandoned Americans overseas caught in the middle of this ridiculous war.

Fucking Ruben Gallego. My Senator-cozies up to the tech bros, talks a big game, but voted to confirm 5 of Trump’s cabinet picks. This guy is full of ego and not much else. Of course he backs Platner.
