I just meant TV networks will more than likely just cover whatever brings in the ratings.You mean the mid-terms? Haven't some Republicans feared that having him around could be detrimental to their chances of winning?

dude pulling the "this is the future liberals want" thing and...well yeah this future sounds pretty rad fym sean lmao
Something that never caught on but lots of people are in favor of is "GSM" meaning gender and sexual minorities. Some say that "queer" is all encompassing but that's a harder sell.LOL, that's all fantastic, haha.
I'm sure the Fox Show this was on made this sound like the coming of Satan, but I just find it hilarious anyone could read those bullets and not think over half of them is great (I can understand religious ignorance for some of them, but most of that stuff is great no matter what).
I'm sure all they have to say it:"and she's gonna make you pay for it all with HIGHER TAXES!" to get everyone watching that shit to immediately disregard it.
Also, it feels like it's time for LGBTQ... Community to come up with a shorthand name with how many letters its getting these days (a task easier said than done in sure).
Why is Venezuela always the go-to dig at Socialists and Social Democrats?You should have seen what they said on the Five. They talked about her attractiveness and said she would be a star on every cable news channel. One guy said he couldn't pronounce her last name because it was a "tongue twister." Some lady laughed. They said they have to give her a nickname like OC. They went on to say she is too far left and that her principles wouldn't work unless she was running for office in Venezuela.
because the goal is to demonize the concept of a social safety net, not to accurately reflect the state of various forms of social democracy around the world. The dominant form of conservative thought in America does not value reviewing evidence objectively or building a better life for the average person.Why is Venezuela always the go-to dig at Socialists and Social Democrats?
Is it the brown boogieman?
They always seem to leave out the entirety of Europe, Japan, and essentially all other developed nations who have a strong social safety net and social programs in one form or another.
I would assume it's because of the money he allows himself to receive from lobbyists, as per her reply on the matter.Can someone explain to me why Crowley is some sort of villain for Progressives? Everything I have read about him makes him sound like a reliable and dedicated Liberal.
Because you're not fighting for progressive and liberal ideas if you refuse to address the economic inequalities and struggles of your constitutes.Can someone explain to me why Crowley is some sort of villain for Progressives?

Women's rights is code for male genocide.
The mother of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said that the 28-year-old democratic socialist aspires to eventually sit in the Oval Office.
"Her aspiration is to be the president," Blanca Ocasio-Cortez told the New York Post in a report published Thursday.
"She has been thinking about politics since she was a teenager. She would read historical and political books old and new," her mother said. "She would engage in political discussions passionately."
The sooner Tucker dies (of natural causes) the better. Let's fucking hope his moral shittiness leads to soul cancer.
She's almost too good to be true.
Her looks and age will be a ridiculous distraction for a media that literally can't help itself.
I don't want to be that guy, but If this country was too sexist to let one of our most qualified female politicians in, they're sure as hell not letting a Hispanic woman in. That's 2 firsts at once.

Well, there's no way AOC would be as accommodating to the scourge known as the GOP so that's a plus. She's also more progressive to begin with, too.I don't know if it's that simple. By the time she runs we could be in an entirely different climate. If she manages to figure out the practical side of her policy goals, she could be similar to Sanders (enthusiasm wise) without any of the baggage. I mentioned this earlier, but racists will always be racist. You won't swing them. AOC will have no issues proving to people of color that she's the real deal, which is a problem both Bernie and Hillary had. IMO if she walks the walk she could be a better Obama, if some comparison must be made.

Mero should eat fish filet for thisColbert announced Ocasio-Cortez will be on his show tomorrow. Pretty swift get, he really pounced on that.

Hannity spent minutes smearing AOC- and her amazing "scary" policy positions lmao
Ocasio-Cortez characterizes narratives that pit race against class as a "fundamental misunderstanding" of how our country works: "I can't name a single issue with roots in race that doesn't have economic implications, and I cannot think of a single economic issue that doesn't have racial implications. The idea that we have to separate them out and choose one is a con."
She might be, but she's a socialist. Not that socialists wouldn't want the Nordic model.Isn't that what Bernie thinks too?
She sounds like a supporter of the nordic model.

From what I heard, she's a means of production kind of person.The nordic model is highly suppported by socialists.
Btw, she is not a socialist, but a socialdemocrat.
For a while, Venezuela used to be the poster boy for tons of old-school socialists and intellectuals like Noam Chomsky, who pushed for equality and freedom at their homes but turned a blind eye to the authoritarian elements of Hugo Chavez.Why is Venezuela always the go-to dig at Socialists and Social Democrats?

They had never heard of him before Tuesday, but upon learning that he was "establishment" he's automatically the worst thing in the world.Can someone explain to me why Crowley is some sort of villain for Progressives? Everything I have read about him makes him sound like a reliable and dedicated Liberal.
Yeah, it was pushed as a PR thing quite heavily among certain types, and while going "hurr durr Venezula" Fox News crap on unrelated people is dumb, pulling receipts on people who pushed Chavez and Venezuela as some sort of left wing example is very much a good thing.For a while, Venezuela used to be the poster boy for tons of old-school socialists and intellectuals like Noam Chomsky, who pushed for equality and freedom at their homes but turned a blind eye to the authoritarian elements of Hugo Chavez.
It's like China. Students in the 60s used to adore Mao and justify his extermination programs, thus giving ammunition to the far right.
Yup. Fred Hampton and the Black Panthers knew intersectionality as well. Race and economics are intertwined with each other like space and time.Any actually knowledgable socialist will tell you about intersectionality. The concept that you have to work on solving class, race, gender and sexuality rights issues in unity and with universal support from all socialists. Trying to reduce any of these issues down to a mere question of "this will solve everything else" is literally ignoring everything history tells us and just outright stupid. The calls for "not bringing race into it, it's an economic issue!" are laughable. Luckily, there's a generation hopefully being spearheaded by Alexandria that understands that socialist unity is of utmost importance and that excluding people who are working on their own end to solve the same issues needs to gtfo.
Do you think she got into internet arguments? Are the posters getting entering congress?
