i know he's dwarfed by the Orange Blob, but Booty's disregard for people's intelligence is annoying.

I work at a company that Warren wants to break up and I’m going to vote for her.

The hatred for Buttigieg escapes me, at his worst he seems rather harmless and he polls below 10%.

I don't really hate him so much as I hate the phenomenon -- narcissistic urban liberals voting for their reflection basically

I can't imagine a better endorsement of Warren for Sanders voters than these recent attacks from Silicon Valley and Wall Street

if Bernie wins NH he'll get more of those

"Harmless" reads as "harmful", when your own position is that there are quite a few targets out there which must be harmed in order to accomplish anything good.

Like what specifically? Maybe I missed some stuff

Van Horn Street, Tuesday, 1 October 2019 21:31 (six years ago)

We've just been talking about billionaires, Wall Street tycoons, Facebook and Google getting up in arms about the harm that would be done if they were more closely regulated and new taxes imposed on them. They'll do as specific targets, for starters.

A is for (Aimless), Tuesday, 1 October 2019 22:27 (six years ago)

I don’t see Buttigieg as being particularly being pro-big business, but perhaps once again I’m missing some statements or policy plans.

Van Horn Street, Tuesday, 1 October 2019 22:57 (six years ago)

also bad at keeping his police dept from murdering brown people

truly the most vapid of all buttigieg gotchas, made more so by the implied QED

if you think mckinney's bad, wait til you find out where bernie's been working

i mean if you want to look for legit reasons to support someone other than buttigieg, they're not hard to find

idk his take on succession is p disappointing

Larry Elleison (rogermexico.), Tuesday, 1 October 2019 23:54 (six years ago)

I’ll be honest and I don’t know how it will play here, there is one idea I like from Buttigieg it is the notion of recapturing faith from the right. The rest I don’t care much for, he just seems like a less popular Biden so not much to think about or feel threatened by if you are in the more progressive camp.

Van Horn Street, Wednesday, 2 October 2019 00:28 (six years ago)

Meanwhile a couple Sanders fans are going after Warren's teacher background.

Jacobin is a cesspool.

Van Horn Street, Wednesday, 2 October 2019 00:40 (six years ago)

one idea I like from Buttigieg it is the notion of recapturing faith from the right.

That's fine with me. Recapturing the US flag as a symbol of a nation that includes people of the left would also do the left no harm. These are potent symbols, but it really sucks how much of politics is just fronting for these symbols that tell us nothing concrete about how the person embracing them intends to run government.

What did Vincent Donofrio’s wife do to piss off Sanders trolls so much btw? Saw a blip on my “celebrities quitting twitter” screen the other day.

if Warren follows “break up big tech” with “criminalise religion” she’s got my vote

i don't see anything soooooo disgusting in that Pete quote (and I'm a Warren supporter). This is a fucking primary, of course people are going to try to find a way to elevate themselves above those polling higher than them. That's a pretty tame way of doing it too. Jesus fucking christ.

akm, Wednesday, 2 October 2019 01:33 (six years ago)

Jacobin publishes as much innocuous stuff as poorly argued trash (putting them on par with most outlets) but Meagan Day should know better than to think she's being persuasive there.

Simon H., Wednesday, 2 October 2019 01:36 (six years ago)

she's doubled down, and the encouraging comments are something to behold

Larry Elleison (rogermexico.), Wednesday, 2 October 2019 01:38 (six years ago)

Stans gonna stan.

i'm glad "a couple Sanders fans" are being used as cudgels

politics is the worst. watch baseball.

I'm watching Ozu. More democratic.

obv you've never heard the "baseball and democracy" monologue from Richard Greenberg's play "Take Me Out"

a Mets fan who gave up on everything in the mid '80s (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 2 October 2019 01:44 (six years ago)

remember reading about Take Me Out and wanting to see it

Dan S, Wednesday, 2 October 2019 01:51 (six years ago)

The only thing that feels longer than the Democratic primary process is a baseball game.

Bernie Sanders had two stents inserted after chest discomfort yesterday, per statement.
