re: #122 Backwoods_Sleuth

Of course Biden would say these kind of things. It’s the kind of politician he learned to be, and probably his own personality is such that he wants/needs to think better of people.

But I think the people who need to hear that kind of message don’t care. All those people giving Newsom the middle finger will despise Biden for being so kind.

Trumpers like Trump because of his ugliness, not in spite of it.

Biden wants to be Presidential. But half the country despises “presidential.”

I think there are a lot that won’t, but there are some that will hear it from an old white guy.

Sucks that you have it, but I didn’t think people were contagious on the day they got it. Were you with them for a couple of days? I’m not questioning that you have it, I just want to make sure I understand the timeline.

We were there for a week. We met up with my sister’s family a few times later in the week. They were probably contagious by the time we met at the Thanksgiving table itself.

Exactly. Maintaining extended family ties is not more important than protecting the health of one’s immediate household.

Fortunately for me, most of my extended family is either dead or spread out thousands of miles away with no expectation that we visit them.

My immediate household consists of me, my wife, and one grown Aspie son. My son and I are recluses and did not go out our way to go out and interact with people in person. My wife is a university professor who teaches remotely. We have all our groceries delivered without physical contact.

My only relative who lives locally is a brother who lives less than a three minute drive away. He is an “essential worker” in a discount store that sells food and supplies and interacts on a daily basis with malignantly stupid customers who refuse to abide by COVID-19 guidelines. We have not seen him since the early stages of the pandemic.

We have a daughter who is a grad student living up near UNM. I have not seen her since a couple of weeks before the first lockdown in mid March.

My brother and daughter are not conservative wingnuts, but we are still not seeing each other for the duration of the emergency because it is just too risky and irresponsible to do so.

We could fund and staff federal law enforcement agencies to investigate domestic terrorism. It’s high time we started going after the Nazis and the KKK, and since there’s significant overlap with these idjits, it would be a great way to start cutting away at this problem in an apolitical way.

The fight for the minds of the population (which includes more than just those who go vote, though we could say those who vote are more important) should never be surrendered.

But the real problem is speaking the truth to a Trumper is going to make them not like you.

And people want to be liked.

For all their religiosity, Trumpers demonstrate the lack of moral urges when it comes to Trump’s lies.

That audio is seriously over-compressed. It’s a form of ASMR, meant to fuck with your senses.

ASMR signifies the subjective experience of “low-grade euphoria” characterized by “a combination of positive feelings and a distinct static-like tingling sensation on the skin”. It is most commonly triggered by specific auditory or visual stimuli, and less commonly by intentional attention control.

We can’t get caught up fighting Trump-obsessed idiots.

As Josh Marshall says, Biden should start looking towards the 2022 elections on Day One. In particular, GOP obstruction shouldn’t be met by futile attempts to cajole better behavior. It should be highlighted as the reason things aren’t better, to induce people to fix it by removing as many GOP obstructers as possible the next chance they get.

re: #89 Love-Child of Cassandra and Sisyphus

The fight for the minds of the population (which includes more than just those who go vote, though we could say those who vote are more important) should never be surrendered.

But the real problem is speaking the truth to a Trumper is going to make them not like you.

And people want to be liked.

For all their religiosity, Trumpers demonstrate the lack of moral urges when it comes to Trump’s lies.

I avoided initiating political discussions with my brother this year because I invariably lose my temper and shout over him, when he regurgitates all the standard moronic statements that every Trumpster repeats. My sister however baits him — and today she asked him who won the election. He started by saying probably Biden but immediately segued into some voting topic — which I did not allow him to finish. He said the usual that “Biden is senile”, “he’s going to be 25th Amendmented in a couple months”, “he uses teleprompters for interviews”, “how could he get 80 million votes running from his basement” “Hunter Biden millions from Russia and China” etc etc. I interrupted every statement — it’s as though his mind has been reprogrammed to repeat Hannity highlights and is incapable of processing anything that refutes his adherence to the cult.

I obviously cannot successfully reason with him, since I am always on a short fuse during our political discussions — a problem that doesn’t arise for me during discussions with other Trump fanatics. It’s just my brother who kindles such a response and only regarding anything Trump-related. We’ve disagreed before about politics— but Trump is truly different.

When I said that if the results of the election are overturned, “There will be blood” — He laughed and responded with the typical — “we have all the guns”. When I suggested that may not be true, he dismissed the possibility.

Trump continues to believe that he can in fact get his way if the GOP stands with him. His cult will do anything to keep him in power.

So in this mind, he won all 50 states because only REPUBLICAN votes matter to him.

Trump is mentally ill. Desperately mentally ill.

I don’t know if he’s mentally ill or not. That said, how is saying that any different than my representative Adrian Smith (R-NE3) who is definitely not mentally ill and says the same thing?

My stopgap machine was a notebook with an almost entirely nonfunctional integrated keyboard, so I had the keyboard from my mom’s old Gateway plugged in via the USB port just about the entire time, and I had to keep it plugged in almost constantly because its battery holds about a 23% charge at best, but that’s still better than no PC.

re: #157 Teddy’s Person

I would imagine there’s not going to be a write-in line since the point of the election is for someone to get over 50%.

Who needs a write-in line? Guarantee you there will be a non-zero number of ballots where the voter scrawls “TRUMP” in place of Loeffler and/or Collins.

They’ll count only as spoiled ballots, but that’s fine - they won’t be votes for Loeffler or Collins. I’m fine with that.

I don’t know if he’s mentally ill or not. That said, how is saying that any different than my representative Adrian Smith (R-NE3) who is definitely not mentally ill and says the same thing?

I am 100% confident that Trump is not mentally ill. He is trying desperately to stay in power to avoid prosecution. He has discovered that his base — 74 million strong — will accept anything he says, any lie he promotes. He’s not the one who is ill — he is a sociopath who has achieved the dream of a lifetime. Unlimited resources without having to do anything productive but with ability to harm those he dislikes. He’s vindictive and evil, but not mentally ill. He is doubtless mocking all those who take his claims seriously. He is, without doubt, the most dangerous man who has ever held the presidency of the United States.

My saying he’s mentally ill is hardly just based on this. Listening to him for the last four years, trump is fucking insane. This is just more of the same.

Loeffler or Warnock.

Seems to me everyone is paying too much attention to Trump. Especially the rallies and tweets. We gotta watch his policy moves like firings and purges of course. But I’m just tired of giving that guy my time. So damn tired of him.

I know Stacey Abrams has been laser-focused on the senate runoffs, but I would love to know how she’s feeling about Kemp getting the royal fuck-over by Trump. It’s not anything that she would actually say herself, but she must be getting some kind of secret satisfaction out of seeing him get kicked hard. I hope her Herculean efforts are wildly successful and she can enjoy some republican carnage in January.

Just wait till Giuliani files a lawsuit insisting that Trump write-ins be counted as Loeffler or Perdue votes.

Loeffler or Purdue.

And I’ve been writing Loeffler and Perdue multiple times a day on my GOTV postcards.

…As long as they don’t get scrambled on the cards.

I had to look - but Perdue is the correct spelling for the (hopefully soon-to-be-ex)-Senator.

Mea culpa for the Collins reference earlier. Glad he lost to Loeffler in the first round.

Sending good wishes, fervent hopes for so many Lizards and their loved ones — for the Fish family, for Joe and Crisann, for Zedushka and the worried Babushka. For the folks here mourning losses of family and friends and fur babies; for those fearing losses to come; for the ones dragging through a slow recovery; for the ones worrying about parents, about kids and grands; weighing risks and third-guessing decisions. For all of you, grinding through an unimaginable reality that we know didn’t need to be; racking up scars we’ll have to count later when it feels a little safer. Someday.

Just wishing you all strength; respite when you can get it; sleep when you need it; whatever good vibes a cyber hug can carry. There’s hope ahead, here’s to getting there. Together.
