I'm good. Tell him I said thanks, though.

Yeah just ignore everything I said, I guess.

I hope he's so anxious about this that he never has a restful sleep again for the rest of his miserable life. Fucking worst human alive in the 21st century so far

This could be really bad.

It's frustrating enough having to live like this in normal times. Now we've got literal Nazis dismantling our way of life (with the average American on the streets either being unaware, or simply don't care), and I'm supposed to just get up, go to work, and walk around doing shit like everything is fine.

I feel like I'm losing my goddamn mind. I'm like constantly screaming in terror on the inside these days, it's exhausting.

Suffice to say, you're not alone.

We know. We know that Democrats also deported people. They went after actual criminals (and I guess people who had overstayed their visa), and the people had due process.

They were not being hunted on job sites, outside of their immigration hearings (you know, "doing it the right way"), Home Depot parking lots, etc. They were not sending people to a concentration camp in a third country that the person has zero connection to.

So when people constantly feel the need to "both sides" this issue, it comes off as ignorant (at best. More likely just being disingenuous). When it's the same person again and again (according to another reply), then it starts to seem like a pattern...

It shouldn't need to be fucking said that what's happening right now is not precedented in this country. The closest thing would be Japanese internment camps, but I believe this is far worse.

It's both. This is how fascists operate. And they will laugh at and mock you for your puzzlement.

Yeah, so maybe criticize them when it actually makes fucking sense

And who the fuck actually records video in landscape mode

I dunno, people who understand how to film and take photographs?

Tell people you're Canadian

Nobody can hold a candle to 'deporter-in-chief' Obama.

Have you been asleep for 6 months?

No, we are talking about both. Go re-read the thread for context.

The original comment was comparing the DNC's behavior at the national level, with a mayoral primary with ranked choice voting in one of the bluest cities in the US.

I'm saying it's not even close to a 1:1 comparison

It doesn't read at all like a joke.

He's gotten better about that, and usually realizes halfway through a rant when he's doing it, and shifts it to making fun of himself for being a cliche

As someone who listens to his podcast regularly, he's a borderline socialist at this point, but he has blinders on when it comes to "both sides" bullshit.

It's probably because he doesn't want to alienate half of his audience, which I get. But it's super frustrating to hear because he's right there.

Right? Did everyone's memory get erased two years ago or some shit?

Even when they literally vote for the thing, it's not enough for you people. You have to come up with ways to blame Democrats. It's so goddamn disingenuous.

Well, they have to be accused of something to be detained.

Doesn't seem to be true anymore.

He can't, he wasn't born in the US.

They certainly don't take trains in the US, that's for sure.
