    No, what I do is point out how statistics can only tell you about things like 'correlations' and not *causation*. That's the truth and it's not anti-science in any way.

    That is absolutely not true, your post is just more proof that you're ignorant or anti-science.

    Honestly a really touching article about her!

    https://news.yahoo.com/supreme-court...234700989.html

    I've disagreed with her, but that doesn't mean I haven't respected her. RBG was the toughest woman I've ever seen on this planet. I only wish a fraction of that stamina into my mom, who is battling her own cancer right now. We really did lose a great person yesterday.

    Ok be a pussy, sut back and let them continue to erode this country. I don't give a fuck at this point. The GOP has proven they will do what ever it takes to have power. When the Dems get back they need to seize the reigns and take things back.

    I think we already know you think entire scientific fields are "fake news" like statistics, mathematics, physics etc.

    Its pretty simple. Democrats need to play as dirty as republicans do, and in this case it means expanding the size of the supreme court. We all know that if the places were reversed that is exactly what they would do with no qualms at all. Democrats need to do the same because otherwise the republicans will gradually turn the country into a authoritarian police state because in the medium to long term they sure as hell don't have numbers to hold onto power democratically.

    Reading about her Death for the first time just made the Curb your Enthusiasm theme play in my head.

    You tried that the last 4 years and you have not accomplished anything so far.

    Hmm that's interesting. Collins is trailing in her relection bid but if she does the same then she might be able to hold her seat. She needs a hail mary right pass now and I can't think of any other one that might come along between now and Nov.

    But I still think they'll ram through another justice and Biden will need to expand the SCOTUS.

    Yeah do keep on with creating your own version of reality. The democrats have done nothing of the sort.

    Or do you mean the democrats trying to remove an obviously corrupt president who tried to black mail and extort a foreign national leader by withholding congressionally mandated financial aid in order to get that leader to create a fake investigation into his internal political rival?

    Collins is already facing backlash against her confirming Kavanaugh, if she votes to push through another, she can kiss any chance of re-election goodbye.

    You need to stop pushing this literally false narrative. Bernie DOES NOT INCREASE TURNOUT.

    Excitement wins democrat votes/turnout. You are mistakenly thinking excitement has to have a positive focus.
    It’s not patently false. Primaries, especially democrat ones aren’t indicative of actual elections. Dems, by and large, vote in primaries not based on who best aligns with their values but who they think will win.

    As I’ve argued with you before, Dems don’t sit down at the negotiation table with what they want then work towards a compromise, they sit down with the compromise and then have to negotiate even further away from what they want.

    That is why the right has been able to move further and further right and why when faced with trying to defeat facism we have the most Reagan era republican like democrat of all the primary options.....because people felt like he could win.

    Beyond that, presidential elections are won by people who don’t vote in primaries.

    You sound like one of those people who dont realize why the word "theory" is used so often in the sciences.

    This is a post that sounds like one of those twitter bots.

    they say something entirely false and outlandish all the time.


    The radical left apparently is conservative European.

    of course you think that praying is radical because you're a radical leftist.

    Have they hell. A handful of junior representatives from America's most progressive districts is a far cry from being radical left. The Democrats are still firmly centrist overall.
