Just curious ... how is this different from banning

heron replied to Tweety's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

A very Interesting thing just happened. I was wasting time on YouTube watching today's Rachel Maddow show. She was winding up a segment on the chaos over Georgia's election boards, when suddenly the...

I think that's a win:win for Harris. Muted mics allow for Harris to actually complete a thought without being drowned out by static. Open mics make room for trump to expose his mean-spirited...

What a difference context
The election 2024 Thread

heron replied to Tweety's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

Just to keep things balanced, I'd like to recommend this volume of Tom Wolfe's essays "Radical Chic and Mau-Mauing the Flack Catchers". Two truly hilarious send-ups of performative activism....
The election 2024 Thread

heron replied to Tweety's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

This is a bit OT, but I'm gonna post it anyway. Let's not dismiss performative loudmouths so quickly. Remember the beginnings of the AIDS epidemic? From 1981 to 1985, the Reagan administration,...

I lived in Boston when this happened, working on an inpatient AIDS unit in a state hospital. This is what made trump a hard no for me. Those who refuse to learn from history
The election 2024 Thread

heron replied to Tweety's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

Project 2025 is what it is ... a party platform authored, in part, by former members of trump's staff. I'm sure that there have been distortions both pro and con since it came to public notice. The...

Probably for the same reason he torpedoed the bipartisan border bill. After all, one of his frequent claims is how various other international issues (I.e. the Russian invasion of Ukraine) would be...

Ummm ... just what qualifies you to speak for all
The Kamala Harris Thread

heron replied to Tweety's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

Quite the strawman, there. I didn't see anything in that quote about taking over a company. What I saw was the statement that products developed with taxpayer money will be taken back by those...
The Trump Thread

heron replied to Tweety's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

Of course it's over your head. Those who refuse to learn from history are doomed to repeat it. I suggest you revisit the history of conservatism and the Republican Party since at least the Nixon...
The Kamala Harris Thread

heron replied to Tweety's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

So what? I'm not running for national office. It's still a fact that those "critiques" are being offered as a reason to vote republican. On the weirdness scale, they are right up there with tan...
The Trump Thread

heron replied to Tweety's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

Your whole schtick here is based on the assumption that the republican narrative is true. It is not. I think that it's is just more of the same old dog and pony show that grew out of the political...

Swiftboat, AI crowds, tampons for teen girls and now hot dish recipes.

Veep candidate caved at the expense of patients and nurses

heron replied to Beerman's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

That's quite the trial balloon, there. Swiftboating didn't work. Radical lefty didn't work. Let's throw something about healthcare against the wall and see if that

I signed up 2 years after you. And remember all of these. I actually remember two mass withdrawals. There was the tragedy when the site owner died. The people that took control of AN content were...

One would think so ... except he was still dealing with a hostile Republican Party in the process of selling its soul to trump. I agree, though - a moot
