Democrats constantly falling on chasing opinion polling, even when it compromises their stated values is why the public doesn’t like them. It’s better to have some unpopular positions sometimes for the sake of a coherent ideology.

And yes, both of those things harm trans people. I don’t really care about how you feel about it or whether you espouse it out of transphobia or not.

Public attitudes on issues don’t exist in a bubble, politicians and leaders can shape public opinion too.

First, I was pointing out the tendency for liberals to use public opinion as a sock puppet for stating their own beliefs without having to defend their positions. It’s a weasely and cowardly rhetorical trick.

Let’s get real here. The actual purpose of the tariffs is for stock market manipulation.

Libertarians get bowling

Fascists get UFC, regular conservatives get football, libs get basketball, socialists get baseball, and anarchists get roller derby.

I don’t know about hockey, some sort of Canadian ideology. The metric system?

He can propose a ban on shirts with tags.

Buttigieg may not be that great but he will bring guys who are really, really into trains to the polls.

One harm each day is clearly a form of kink.

New Lolita Express just dropped

Very San Francisco-coded.

Wait, there are men with penises now?

This would not have happened to Sunni Leboeuf

It’s not bad in California but in places like Florida… not great

“Of course it’s not *me*, who’s transphobic! It’s these moderates who we need to constantly cater to who are transphobic !”

But does she have the juice to run in 2028?

Biden 2nd term would be the funniest outcome.

But she’s not realistic in a national race. We need to cater to moderate republican Mee Maws and Pep Peps and scold progressives into voting harder.

I’m not sure of the particulars of the rules but large sugar plantations, particularly in Brazil, had similar survival rates as Nazi concentration camps.

The right as uses their participation of West Africans in the slave trade as some kind of gotcha. Like yeah, they didn’t consider other ethnicities as being part of the same in-group and they may not have known that slavery in the Americas was very different and worse than their understanding of it.

That’s what bugs me about the attempt to equate slavery systems that had occurred in many parts of the world throughout history with chattel slavery in the Americas. Yes, slavery in general is always bad, but systems vary considerably in severity.

TBH I always assumed that UC Law San Francisco was a satellite campus of UC Berkeley since I knew that UCSF was an exclusively healthcare grad school.

hi, building expert here! this is not funny, buildings only do this when they’re in extreme distress.

Huh, for some reason I had her and Howard undergrad and UCLA law in my head.

I’d say UCLA is borderline elite, especially for law school.

We love our big, sloppy president with his normal and fully functional brain.
