I like poking them with a stick every now and then, but I don't have the patience to go out of my way to jab them every time I see them, indefinitely -- some of them can go on for weeks. Bless those of you who do.

watch this, I'm gonna toss this one out and it is gonna make one (Or five. Or twenty :3c) of them so mad: You can be opposed to moving towards the center and also realize that bullshit purity tests of leftism do nothing but help nazis in a time where the republicans are happy to welcome every kind of single-issue voter -- gun rights, your family all votes this way, anti-abortion, hate women, hate blacks, hate mexicans, anti-lgbtq, maybe you're a jesus freak, maybe you're a business owner, maybe you're an outright neo-nazi, maybe all you care about is that rich people are never taxed anything ever (regardless of your own income) -- they're all too happy to welcome all these various flavors of people under a big tent that tells them THEY BELONG.

I'm all for trying to talk these people out of their mediocre centrist shit takes, but that can wait for after we defeat the actual factual nazis, no? For now, we need to vote in every election we can to try and take the path of least harm -- if the DSA runs more candidates in primaries, fucking vote for them, but if one isn't the nominee, don't let perfect be the enemy of "better than what we've got".

now, sit back and watch the fireworks. I adore hearing from "true leftists", they're a laugh riot.

Oh, good, and you fellas had me worried.

No they don't, it's the same fantasy -- "good things happen to good people, bad things happen to bad people", just aimed at different demographics.

Needs a 1/1000 chance to just say "behind the wheel of a large automobile"

As it so happens, they can indict ham sandwiches, but not turkey subs. And I think this is arguably funnier.

Well then.

Carry on.

Well, that's a brand new sentence.

Sir, that's an elbow(?), and this is a Wendy's.

Counterpoint: I don't like any ads, so you'll let me block all of them, right Google?

No?

Too bad, doing it anyways. :3
