Mega-Thread: 2020 United States General Election

Grats, on not "All Bernie supporters".

Noticed, you guys still ignore policy talk.

By this point with your continued attacks, its fairly clear "not all bernie supporters" doesn't even register in your mind.

I'm not here to talk policy. We're a bunch of nobodies on an internet messageboard. And there sure as hell isn't any benefit talking to you.

These Unity Task Forces are a good move for Biden. There are some real heavy hitters on there which shows they are taking this seriously, it’s not for show.
A big change from the 2016 unity commissions, when Bernie selected dumb bomb-throwers like Nina Turner and Nomiki Konst.

They got people interested in policy, not reddit likes.
Socialist cosplayers will be nonetheless, disappointed.

I just can't wait to hear more about how Biden and Trump are the same and their administrations will operate exactly the same. /s

As someone who likes socialized medicine. Having Pramila Jayapal as a chair on the health committee is a big win.
Or AOc on the environmental committee.

It's sad the leftier-than-thou types just came out, putting their personal grievances above all of that. That level of selfishness is the opposite of being progressive.

I know you have a particular bone to pick and I don't particularly want to insert myself into that...but let's be real at least about some of the posters here...they aren't progressive. They are political arsonists. My signature is all the evidence you need for one example to show that there is no actual interest in progressive policy by some of these.

Another standout is Vanita Gupta for criminal justice.

Yes, you aren't. You've spent pages and pages dick-sucking a segregationist homophobe who cheerled for Bush's wars. You are about as progressive as Genghis Khan.

Is it actually physically possible for you to make a post that isn't directly or indirectly shitting on Bernie supporters?

Given that Biden loses without progressive support you do wonder whether the guy isn't actually a Trump supporter, since he seems hell bent on alienating all of them.

Bad example Rochana, Genghis Khan was progressiv on a lot of his policies (e.g. Religion).

Why does it not surprise me a Biden apologist is now literally saying that Genghis Khan wasn't that right-wing?

Genghis Khan got power because he was the "progressive" option and got super popular by throwing the old "mongol" (Step nomad) aristocracy out with the bathwater.
Was he a horrible monster who thought rape and killing was great entertaiment? Yes. Was he the conservative, rightwing force in his region? No.

He innovated, itterated, and didn't care crap for "the old ways".

Medical professionals: Don't re-open the country too soon, you risk making it worse.

Democrats: We need to take this seriously and not do longer-term damage to this country. We need to keep this up and provide additional assitance to workers, unemployed, and small businesses because keeping them all afloat is more important than the debt right now.

Republicans: WHAT THE FUCK WE CAN'T AFFORD THIS?! WE NEED TO GO BACK TO WORK NOW!

Jerome Powell, chair of the Fed: Additional fiscal support could be costly, but worth it if it helps avoid long-term economic damage and leaves us with a stronger recovery

Ha ha ha ha...... Biden is having token task forces as if that will effect any of his policies from his Wall Street Donors. Yet BlueNoMatterWho chumps thinks this is Biden appealing to the left. /yawn Keep your worthless boards.

Man, Sanders and AOC must be some kind of fuckin gullible dumbasses to sign onto that, right?

Coming from a guy bringing up ObamaGate yesterday? That’s what you consider compelling?

now Obama is also being questioned about doing a political hit job.

Should Biden’s strategy be to appeal to conspiracy theorist?

[Felya]

I mentioned it once, because it was new... It's 3 years later and you still have a hard on for Russiagate conspiracy.

Yeah, I don’t pretend to be a Trump supporter or ambivalent.

And we're supposed to believe you're not a conservative cosplaying a progressive when you post stuff like this?

[Felya]

And we're supposed to believe you're not a conservative cosplaying a progressive when you post stuff like this?

That wasn’t even my point... My issue is complaining about Biden’s task force as being a joke, but using ObamaGate as a legitimate concern. That implies that Biden’s tact should be conspiracy theories...

[Felya]

Who pretends to be a Trump supporter or Ambivalent? Certainly not me.

Jesus fucking Christ, that was supposed to mean I am consistent, not about you. Just fucking answer the question...

[Felya]

I didn't make it a legitimate concern. I brought it up, because it was news, and thus worth mentioning.

The Task force are a joke, just like the DNC platform. They don't mean a damn thing about it.

Really? So, when you brought it up as evidence of how shit DNC was, it wasn’t a legitimate concern? Thank you for proving my point? WTF?

- - - Updated - - -

Why would I answer a loaded question? Why not ask it honestly?

Yeah, using two data sets provided by you, as comparisons... is so fucking loaded. lol

[Felya]

Is there a question in there or just the ramblings of a made man?

Yeah, I’m rambling like a man whose life is assured.

The Task force are meaningless and little more than a kids table discussion, anyone who pretends they are anything of substance is a shill.

No, pretending that ObamaGate is something worth noting, while complaining something else is meaningless... kind of cancels any point you try to make. Trust me... I’m a made man... lol

[Felya]

Or you could ask a question legitimately. Just an idea, sorry I won't jump through your hoops.

I can see why you would think contrasting indignation wouldn’t be legitimate. I’m not claiming you are consistent... you thinking it’s illegitimate is par for the course.

- - - Updated - - -

You're still going on about something I mentioned in passing. Kind of pathetic. I guess when you got nothing else, hound away about a weak perceived point I never made.

Yeah, I’m treating two posts of you complaining, as two posts of you complaining. I didn’t realize there is gradient in your posting...

I must admit, it has been interesting to see him go from Williamson, Tulsi, Bernie, deciding to vote Biden based on who his VP pick might be (even during the Tara stuff), to deciding to simply not to vote for him based on previous positions and now to.... this.

It is quite the evolution.

It’s as if there is a script to follow... gosh... I hope no one googles ‘alt right cookbook’...

[Felya]

Did I defend it, did I refuse and say it wasn't? Nope I did neither of those things. I dropped it, but you keep wanting to bring it up like it's a instawin buttion. Good for you. I mentioned something the day it was trending. Scandal!

What insta win button? It shows the sort of issues you care about. You posted complaining about Biden’s team, but instead of complaining that Trump is now ducking responsibility, you used it as an example of DNC failures.

So now I'm alt right? Odd with no proof other than your feelers.

I wouldn’t dare do such a thing... If I did, instead of discussing the issues, we will spend pages talking about you. So... no... I’ll be very careful to never call you alt right.
