@RNCResearch I couldn't care less about the personal history of Platner.
The issues with his ideas? Sure. Beat him there.
Otherwise I see this as mere gatekeeping by elites who fancy themselves a nobility.
@grahamformaine For the bottom twenty percent it has gone into more robust social services like healthcare and assistance programs and scholarships.
The middle working class certainly has gotten shafted, however. They benefit some from the social net but wages are not keeping up.
@YankeeReview_@grahamformaine A time ago a random warlord doing something happened in a vacuum.
Today it disrupts markets, disables supply chains and acts as contagion. Violence spreads. A common good that was once affordable becomes expensive.
@grahamformaine I am not a progressive. We disagree on a lot.
But I'm not going to attack Platner for his past. If Platner wins it should be on the debate over ideas.
Don't allow the system to gatekeep who gets power by enforcing an impossible standard. We all have shit in our past.
@joelpollak Ballot harvesting is legal in California. The Raman campaign calculated how far they were down and then went to areas they could harvest and got it done.
Republicans need to do the same. Simply harvest ballots like they do and this nonsense is over. Play the same game.
@ProfDBernstein The guy you are replying to says a bunch of unrelated stuff and then ends on a conclusion that isn't supported. It's a consistent pattern, not aimed at discussion,
a broken state of mind that abuses psychological tricks.
He operates on the same level as an SQL injection
@Protox0@Alistair_McF The issue is most players hit a wall when they build a base and stuff their boxes with loot. Wipe day scramble or a snowball and then it's over.
Folks like struggle and challenge and maybe a bit of direction. That's why games like WoW are legendary.
@mroth78 The Yale Report was a milquetoast attempt to placate the Trump admin and no amount of "no this isn't good!" gamesmanship from the rest of you isn't tricking anyone.
@kentuckyliz3@ABCPolitics Man you progressives show your real racism whenever a black man steps out.
I'm trying to figure out why the rest stay on your plantations lol
@SCOTUSblog I pray ketanji gets on the phone with the federalist society and asks if they have a spare clerk or two. This is getting very embarrassing.
@mroth78 I agree. Hillary Clinton's refusal to accept the 2016 election and the follow on full throated support of the Democrats set us on a dangerous path.
