@KNBR Would this be a bad time to ask why I don’t remember who Connor Joe was?

@revdefeatist The greens capacity to never exceed 15% anywhere is astounding

@BlueRepublik Bernie was very open and honest in the 2020 campaign that people would pay higher taxes to fund m4a. He's not as anti-tax slopulist as the democrats we're seeing come through.
English
1. This isn’t a conservative think tank
2. Bernie filibusters and only at the end he touches on what is asked
Nordic countries have high *middle class* taxes for the too, not just the rich!
Bernie yells “tax the rich” when he knows his policies will need more than that
Faiz@fshakir
Bernie has addressed this many times, including in one of my all-time favorite Bernie moments during a 2017 CNN debate with Ted Cruz. WATCH: Bernie takes on a Denmark-born economist from the conservative Peterson Institute. The economist starts by attacking Bernie's approach. See what happens next...

@hecubian_devil It is a problem that in a state as diverse as California, the top 5 polling candidates are all white (4 are men) but the lower-polling candidates still need to drop out. It's a long term issue, in the short-term these candidates need to drop out.
English
“The more popular white candidates should drop out to consolidate the field behind the Latina candidates who are less successful” is like a parody of Democrats and DEI. Sorry but we are leaving the identity-group entitlements behind in Woke 2. You have to earn the wins.

Opinion | Telling Latino candidates that now is the moment to step aside sends a message — intentional or not — about whose leadership is considered essential and whose is optional. cal.news/4t9IhHx 📝 Katharine Pichardo 📸 Zaydee Sanchez

@_colourmeamused My support for democracy isn't contingent on who the voters choose to vote for. That's why I identify as a social democrat and Lenin shouldn't have dissolved the constituent assembly in 1919 grr.
English
@_colourmeamused I still support PR, one nation has clearly come in second in this election and deserves the second most seats.
English
The fans of PR are awfully quiet these days 👀 tbf the strident ones used to say the Greens deserve more seats and so do PHON
Really miss having those ‘progressives’ yell at me 🥰

south australian one nation might get 0 seats with 20% of the vote

Why can't we have a diverse society in which people of ALL races and ALL ethnicities and ALL genders and ALL ages come together and agree that I'm right about everything?

@SatoruFujinama1 @ThatChris1209 You have to be in the batters box. Nothing prevents the batter from walking from the back to the front of the box if he chooses.

I’ve never seen someone dance down the track with a baseball bat before, I’ll give him that

Ever seen a cricketer hit a home run? 🏏 x ⚾️ England captain @Harry_Brook_88 gave it a go at Spring Training with the @Phillies. See how he got on...

@rachelewis3 Releasing a pro-Palestine statement isn't misconduct, it's first amendment protected speech that the members voted for. Some of the stuff like suggesting a pro-Israel worker not join the union is misconduct.
English
@ViJaRada Perhaps you could explain which examples you think are or aren’t misconduct, because from my perspective the pro-Palestinian cause seems to excuse any actions that can be linked to Palestine in any way.
English
The author of the thread obviously believes all palestine solidarity is misconduct. No consideration given to the fact that the union represents its members who voted for Palestine solidarity. Having said that some of the things in this thread are bad.

Here's what Columbia PhD students say about Jews and Israelis behind closed doors.🧵Since 10/7, grad students in the union have: - Convinced @Columbia's anthropology dept. to NOT discipline instructors for discrimination if it's Palestine-related (#10 below) - Said Persian Jews were "one of the most fascist" demographics in America (#17) - Shot down a resolution to condemn "anti-Israeli hatred" and national origin discrimination because "I don't want to normalize Israel as a 'nation state' " (#12) - Complained about "Zionist arbitrators" inside Columbia's anti-discrimination office during workplace retaliation cases (#11) - Openly discussed going "on the offensive" inside classrooms and doing "teach-ins in our classes" on Palestine (#10) - Said they were "very tempted" to try to claim a piece of Columbia's $21 million antisemitism settlement fund, even though this student was not Jewish (#16) These PhD students have current or past research and teaching positions at Columbia, including with undergrads. If you think you've seen all the antisemitism, pro-terror, and anti-Israel activity from Columbia there is to see, buckle up. I've reported some of this in @TheFP previously, but here's a fuller picture.

@varshos_glove There has been an openly lgbt current NFL player. It's crazy to me that it hasn't happened in most other sports, either in US or in my home country.
English
Why are people bringing this up as if it’s an insane awful thing to say?????? He’s right?
But also to some degree there already has in Baseball

Jackie Robinson showed us the power of one. Soon enough we're going to meet another pioneer: a gay man in pro sports. yhoo.it/ZsdqCc

@FtsyParliament Your game needs fine-tuning. I got an 80% policy by just writing 'do good things and stop doing bad things'
English
Btw if you desperately need a policy that everyone loves with basically no downside just do something that inconveniences MPs
Ban second jobs
No phones in Parliament
The people love it

The final pillar of Woke 1 that must be torn down is the idea that if the majority of an ethnic group believes something, they have to be right. The majority of an ethnic group can be wrong. Most white Americans vote for a party that thinks white people are the victims of racism.
Michael A. Cohen (NOT TRUMP’S FORMER FIXER)@speechboy71
Man, nothing pisses me off more than when non-Jews have the audacity to suggest that they know what is best when it comes to addressing "a very real threat to Jewish people." Imagine a white liberal telling a person of color, "I know better when it comes to understanding racism."

It's the logical end result of a mindset that thinks, "more extreme = more true," and "more nuanced = more liberal = more wrong."

What happened that made all these big far left accounts feel comfortable sounding like groypers all the sudden?
