The Neverending Thread for Political Shit

This forum is for talking about non-music-related stuff that the DBT fanbase might be interested in. This is not the place for inside jokes and BS. Take that crap to some other board.

Quite so. X is shrinking every day. I work very hard making sure that happens.

I disagree.

I can't follow the dialogue between ponygirl and Arkansawyer as well as I'd like. I wish I understood more, but as to identity politics, I think it is both toxic and necessary, and as to traditional liberalism, I think it is both dated and needing to be reclaimed. So somewhere in the mushy middle for me I guess. Bottom lines for me are that modern identity politics never would have evolved as they did had traditional liberalism not failed (or sold out), and identity politics alone won't get us where we need to go, and we need to refocus on the class and economic issues that lay underneath identity politics to move forward.

And I still don't like seeing ad hominem attacks no matter who they're directed at.

Confuse what you can of the ending
And revise your despise so impending
‘Cause I soak on the wrath
That you didn’t quite mask
I’m getting it clearly through alternate paths
Or mixed in with the signal you’re sending


The Katy Tur treatment for you, kind sir.

I'm not sure if this is real or not. Shit, I'm not sure anything is real or not anymore. BUT, this is the best source I've found for the 'Fake News Awards'. It has been postponed a number of times, so I'm not sure if the Orange Anus will follow through or not. Either way, should be a total train wreck.

It appears the Fake News Awards is a fake event. It will be interesting to see the Dotard wiggle out of this one.

It's run-of-the-mill snark till the tagline, which is golden:

This story is still developing and will not be updated as the winners come in.

From the They're Still Massing At The Borders, From Chinese Troops To Terrorists Dept.:

FBI investigating whether Russian money went to NRA to help Trump
The extent to which the FBI has evidence of money flowing from Torshin to the NRA, or of the NRA’s participation in the transfer of funds, could not be learned.

However, the NRA reported spending a record $55 million on the 2016 elections, including $30 million to support Trump – triple what the group devoted to backing Republican Mitt Romney in the 2012 presidential race. Most of that was money was spent by an arm of the NRA that is not required to disclose its donors.

Two people with close connections to the powerful gun lobby said its total election spending actually approached or exceeded $70 million. The reporting gap could be explained by the fact that independent groups are not required to reveal how much they spend on Internet ads or field operations, including get-out-the-vote efforts.
