Democratic National Convention Megathread! Day 1 - Monday 8/19
  • It isn’t as though I’ve been around long enough to see them all, but I’d have to agree with your edits that he gave the speech of his life tonight.

    30 years ago, Joe wouldn’t even recognize himself. I think my favourite line was in reference to all of the Democrats that have spent decades arguing for economic liberalism in vain. It felt like he included himself. As so many love to say, those that seek power often don’t deserve it; Joe reminded us tonight of how he’s spent his entire life redeeming himself.

  • Your TV set has become a digital billboard. And it’s only getting worse.
  • It’s not that simple.

    Here’s an example: Amazon could outfit all of their delivery vehicles with open wifi networks. Every Alexa device calls home when a truck drives by.

    Here’s another: you may have a guest wifi, or your neighbor, or their neighbor. All it needs is one.

    Yeah of course there are solutions to faraday cage it away from the world. But all they need is one connection. You have to stop it forever.

  • Literal strawman nonsense, look at this man go. I think you should understand that America is attempting to erode a woman’s right to vote. That’s what I’m saying. That all these people that think America should continue down the path of abandoning modern democracy should look into Americas past and understand the points in time in which it has championed for rights.

    Thats the way you use that word. You’re literally admitting you’re ESL and can’t use English as well as I can. You’ve built a massive strawman on this simple fact. Other commentors can see my point. You can’t. Sorry.

    Like I actually can’t believe you’ve built this massive of a strawman, it’s incredible. All because you don’t know the definition of a word. That’s literally all you go back to, as well. Nothing else I say matters. You just masturbate to your strawman, Mr Fin.

  • See this guy understands what I’m saying.

    To say that America is “number 1” is not what I was saying, it was that at the heart of the American governmental systems lies a true socialist foundation. That’s why it’s been hammered for so long, because it’s what should have propelled America into the 21st century.

  • Baby boomers are fleeing Donald Trump and switching allegiance to Harris
  • Those numbers are such bullshit. 538 has just a solid line of 39% or whatever the fuck. Literally nothing makes a difference. You know, we used to put world events on these graphs and see how the populace responded. Now… just line. They’re not human.

  • Harris proposes raising the corporate tax rate to 28%, rolling back a Trump law
  • Well you brought up like the most manipulatable resource as a means of taxation, so I see why you feel they’d always win. I mean Trump’s entire career has been made simply lying about the value of his assets when it suited him. That’s not a “loophole”, inasmuch as it’s fraud that isn’t caught.

    You want it to end? Give the IRS more money. Allow the FEC to attack monopolies and monopsonies. The rich simply lie and print advertisements convincing rubes to destroy the system. Regulate the news, advertising. “Ohh but mah freeze peach”, well then you get unregulated, untaxable, unrestrained capitalistic greed.

  • In honor of Joe Biden and his prime time speech Monday instead of Thursday.
  • The entire thread’s based on a propaganda point peddled by Republicans that Joe Biden is mentally incapacitated, and seem to care so deeply about Joe’s ability when for the majority of Joe’s tenure, he’s been polling below Trump. So to be openly negative on a point that is not true, and to do so when the presumptive incoming President was Donald, only makes it look like you’re punching down. Which you were. Cause there’s no difference in what you peddle, and means there’s no difference in how you’re interpreted.

  • Emotional distress among voters tied to Trump's populist appeal, research shows
  • That shit makes me feel worse. You mean to say knowing about all the people that decide not to vote make you feel better about the percentage of people who’d actually vote for Donald? I practically see them as the same thing

  • Emotional distress among voters tied to Trump's populist appeal, research shows
  • I don’t really see much difference between a Trump voter, a Bush voter, a Reagan voter. It all blends together. Those ignorant and arrogant enough to say their vote doesn’t matter are clearly the slaves Kanye was talking about — even if Kanye's a Nazi

  • Harris proposes raising the corporate tax rate to 28%, rolling back a Trump law
  • Man it’s so fucking straightforward for the IRS to see that Mom’s fettuccine restaurant is a little bit different from fucking Amazon, Meta, Ford etc from just putting all of it’s money into itself and calling it a loss.

  • Harris proposes raising the corporate tax rate to 28%, rolling back a Trump law
  • What’s your conclusion? That we shouldn’t tax anyone at all?

    Why isn’t your conclusion that we should find these husks of supposed humans and turn them inside out? Why isn’t your conclusion that chunks of SpaceX, chunks of Amazon, chunks of Google, should be rightfully owned by the American public?

  • In honor of Joe Biden and his prime time speech Monday instead of Thursday.
  • That’s hilarious because I’m quite sure the Republican platform is “Trump 2028”, and even Biden dropping out has supposed leftists saying its a couuuup. You’d complain about anything. Why don’t you go scream about buttery males.
