as I've said many times on this very thread already, post-mortems and straw-grasping are of next to no interest to me, would prefer we were talking about Trump's presidency

Bernie won WI 56 to 43 BTW

god you guys are fucking tiresome. primary /= general election, Bernie was never really attacked w negative ads/Trump tweets/GOP noise machine yadda yadda yadda why are we having this argument you already know are the counter-arguments

Οὖτις, Wednesday, 14 December 2016 22:51 (seven years ago) link

all the counter-arguments

Οὖτις, Wednesday, 14 December 2016 22:51 (seven years ago) link

one definitive way that we can fight against the things we dislike about Trump's administration is to spend as much time as we possibly can bitching about how Hillary Clinton was a terrible candidate and human being

instead increase allocation of resource X to sector Y by 15%, assuming that it is correct that sector Y's historical trend of voting on issue Z continues to increase by 5% per annum, an assumption based upon a number of factors

This reminds me of the one professor who got plenty of the press this for "predicting every Presidential outcome since 1984! (...except 2000)"

Which had some sorta weird calculus like Marx trying to throw out how to figure the value of a thing thru algebra or something; This weird mechanicism historicism that doesn't nec. take into effect the multi-variable random dumbness of all human affairs at all levels.

It's not some kind of computer-killing paradox, we're talking about two people who are just not very far from each other in their vision of governance

That is pretty clearly nonsense.

President-elect Donald Trump’s team is struggling so hard to book A-list performers for his inaugural festivities that it offered ambassadorships to at least two talent bookers if they could deliver marquee names, the bookers told TheWrap.

maybe Kanye will go off on Trump during his performance, seriously i'm not putting it past him to be playing the long con here

nomar, Thursday, 15 December 2016 03:05 (seven years ago) link

hillary understood that change is incremental

yeah, just like winter melts in the Arctic, very incremental

Supercreditor (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 15 December 2016 03:14 (seven years ago) link

ah Kanye is the new Obama, playing Vulcan 9-dimensional chess

maybe he will pardon Snowden and Manning

Supercreditor (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 15 December 2016 03:17 (seven years ago) link

Very disappointed in Kanye.

Treeship, Thursday, 15 December 2016 03:25 (seven years ago) link

Maybe it would have been better for Hillary to have had a slogan that she herself could have said in speeches

fukcing kanye. george bush doesn't care about black people. but this guy trump! this fuckin' guy right here!!

I mean, he does care about black people, he cares about keeping them out of his places of business and about preventing them from voting, how can you accuse him of apathy in this matter

Romney wouldn't.

actually laughed out loud at this

so shocked kanye is drawn to this powerful narcissist...what could be the attraction...hmm

k3vin k., Thursday, 15 December 2016 05:58 (seven years ago) link

i mean i'd like to think this is what he was doing:

KANYE WEST ‏@kanyewest Dec 13
I wanted to meet with Trump today to discuss multicultural issues.

KANYE WEST ‏@kanyewest Dec 13
These issues included bullying, supporting teachers, modernizing curriculums, and violence in Chicago.

KANYE WEST ‏@kanyewest Dec 13
I feel it is important to have a direct line of communication with our future President if we truly want change.

Long post, yet important. (crüt), Thursday, 15 December 2016 06:52 (seven years ago) link

Kanye is not a narcissist in the way Trump is a narcissist. I reject this line of thinking totally xp.

Treeship, Thursday, 15 December 2016 07:00 (seven years ago) link

Kanye is not a moral paragon but he doesn't appear to derive his joy in life from dominating or humiliating others. He wants to create things and to be remembered as an innovator.
