mayor pete only has momentum because biden is a failing v-4 engine per usual, warren is a mess and rich people know another ruthless power bottom when they see one and they will speak to all the managers and pull all of the shit they can to keep that other guy the one that smells like poor people from entering their planned community. i just love to see the pundit class pick and choose where and when people of color matter to them, i.e. they have to make more than 40k a year, it's not racist tokenism at all.
this article was shared on fb and i don't get all of it but it makes the argument that as far as winning against trump goes the 2020 candidate doesn't matter. in which case isn't it all the more important to pick the one whose policy commitments could have an actual real effect on poor americans i.e. most of the populace?

i got into a heated discussion last night with a friend of a friend, a gay man who like a lot of other gay men of his generation from salt lake city are just really conservative at heart and suck up to power and believe the bullshit about progress etc from the bloombergs and the bezoses and i just couldn't do a polite conversation with him... i'm so tired of people who edgelord about "the reality of the world" and accept pure capitalist survival of the fittest like it's gravity and victim-blame poor people. anyway this is working me up too much for my own good lately gotta chilllll

and just for the record katherine is extremely not otm with her concern trolling about people making fun of pete's horrible vacuous politics-speak but there is literally no disagreement anyone can have with katherine that doesn't end with her throwing a massive tantrum so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

somebody with a uterus says something negative about the way Bernie’s opponents are being portrayed in a negative light, well, you know what has to be done, eh? Nothing like living up to a stereotype
― El Tomboto, Friday, 7 February 2020 23:55 (six years ago)
(nothing against women who don’t have a uterus btw)
― El Tomboto, Friday, 7 February 2020 23:59 (six years ago)
Yes, I think we will all be wary of Katherine and her, uh, tantrum.

unless I’m mistaken it was a comment on a Buttigieg ad, nothing to do with Bernie.
Anyway, weird that this discussion migrated over here. I thought the sentiment was kinda condescending and trite (as others have noted) but whatever, I didn’t intend to make it personal.
― unobtrusive ambient poll participant, Saturday, 8 February 2020 00:28 (six years ago)
It's a cheap shot at Buttigieg for saying something both vapid and nerdy but generally inoffensive. Who cares? Pete sucks. Make fun of him 24/7, he deserves it.
― Greta Van Show Feets BB (milo z), Saturday, 8 February 2020 01:05 (six years ago)
That’s not what map was doing, he went out of his way to call another poster a troll because she expressed distaste with calling another candidate a rat
― El Tomboto, Saturday, 8 February 2020 01:41 (six years ago)
It’s literally why shitloads of loyal democrats who will proudly vote for Bernie in the general (as they would have last time) find you guys to be fucking douchebags

Oh actually you’re right, map was actually whining about something even more reasonable that katherine said.
― El Tomboto, Saturday, 8 February 2020 02:03 (six years ago)
katherine’s point was entirely reasonable, like there’s so much else worth hating about Buttigieg, who gives a shit about a reasonable (albeit clumsily phrased) point. Still, that’ll teach a woman to have an opinion on politics not buried in a million qualifiers.

You’re all clearly afraid of something

So I'm not watching the debate because they're intolerable, but apparently Steyer's fanboy act is especially persistent this time around.

Sorry for jumping threads and overreaching. “Trite and condescending” is a better way to put it. The tantrum accusation is completely off topic, out of my depth, mean-spirited and I’m sorry i said it. Good thing i’m never going to try writing about music i guess.Only thing I consider a win is getting tombot riled up.

Curious thing about people who are so offended by vile loudmouthed and uncouth bernie supporters is they always seem to be doing pretty well for themselves.
― i am a horse girl (map), Saturday, 8 February 2020 06:44 (six years ago)
In theory yes, but some of this language is very inflammatory. In the last few months alone bedbugs, rats, snakes. Where will it all end? Just when I think we can't go any lower, another animal is hurled at a bystander, and for what?

I was going to ask if "worm" was an acceptable description for Pete.
