making samantha bee proud no doubt!

[La Lioness Priyanka]

2. def should have added being a nasty woman as an option

[Squinch]

3. Wait... I want DeBlasio to be re-elected. We're not supposed to want that?

Sometimes I get so far behind...

[La Lioness Priyanka]

5. I hope we do get him re elected.

But I was mostly just making light of the buzzwords people have accused me of

[Squinch]

15. .

I know. And I have heard random disparagements of Di Blasio from the left, but for the life of me I can't tell what they are based on.

[Demsrule86]

10. No he is on the shit list...I have no idea why...I guess he didn't give the pure

enough purity or something.

[Squinch]

16. His purity IS a little unpure. But I like that!

[La Lioness Priyanka]

17. it has to do with his endorsement of HRC

[Demsrule86]

45. Of course...what else. I mean I fail to see why these folks are still bitter after all this time...

they should move on. Sen. Sanders won't be president in my view... an election with him in it...in 20 could cause a loss in the general whether he wins(I don't believe he can win a general) or loses (will generate division). We need a candidate we can unite behind.

[Hortensis]

48. Well, of course, this isn't really about the real BS or the real HRC.

The left's burden to bear, in this nation or any other, is that more radical-leaning to extremist leftists are naturally so strongly focused on defeating the moderate left that they have little attention left for the right. To the far left, our planet's problems are always ultimately the fault of liberals who always fail to be what humanity needs them to be but won't get out of the way of Those Who See.

Given that reality, isn't it darn right unreasonable of you to expect them to just "move on" after once again losing to the more moderate, Democratic Party left--at a time when existential crisis threatens us all?

I imagine bitterness, though not hostility, will be largely replaced with hope once again as their chance to save the world comes around again with the 2018 and 2020 elections. Just wonder who they will pin their passions on then. And who will be offering that candidate. By definition, it will not be a mainstream Democratic liberal.

[Demsrule86]

50. That is an excellent reply. And you are quite correct. I would be happy if any liberal ...left

of left, center somewhere in between...I just want our side to win...someone with a "D" next to their name. But for the left, they see rejection when someone they consider a moderate is chosen. I will say that Hillary was not a moderate. They were wrong about her and some who claim that they were cheated when Bill Clinton was elected are also wrong...when the country is center left or center right... a leftist candidate will lose a presidential election. Bill Clinton ended 12 years of GOP presidents and before he came on the scene, we were well on our way to another GOP for four more years. Imagine a court with more Thomas's and no Ginsbergs or Breyers. Thanks for the thought provoking on point reply.

[Hortensis]

55. 100% with you. Vocabulary confusion. There is no

basic personality type that corresponds to "moderate," according to psychologists. We are born wired mainly either liberal or conservative of all strengths (very moderate to very extreme), with environment then weighing in.

Pew's research says we're most of us goulashes of positions from across the spectrum, "averaging out" to whatever, including centrist. Interestingly, many moderates often hold what are called "extreme" (i.e. out-of the mainstream) positions, while whose who tend extremist by personality may often support moderate positions, though generally believing they are not mainstream. And most people reportedly hold at least one position typical of the opposite extreme. (!)

Oh, well. Babbling on, but I do like this stuff.

But I agree. Hill is proven by years of very strongly analyzed behaviors to be solidly liberal with some positions to the right of and others farther left of the bulk of mainstream liberals, but mostly solidly overlapping.

[BainsBane]

40. He was only good when

Rumors were circulating that Hillary might run against him. Since she's not, he's back to being a corporatist, establishment Dem. Wall Street is right in his city, you know. If he were a true progressive he would replace those financial businesses with corpoations and lobbyists for the f35 and guns.

[Squinch]

41. Gracious. How very impure of him.

Those of us in NYC unions breathed a huge sigh of relief when DiBlasio broke the 12 year log jam that Bloomberg had imposed on us. I have been dimly aware of criticisms about him coming from the left and wondered what those jokers were smoking when they came up with the complaints.

[NCTraveler]

4. Smiling?

[Demsrule86]

6. All of the above...the Democratic party is a big tent party.

[OnDoutside]

7. Standing on the bed of Room 1101 in the Moscow Ritz Carlton ? Am I close ?

[La Lioness Priyanka]

8. Lol

[Blue_Tires]

9. I was really hoping it was something sexy instead...

But you can save that thread for the lounge

[La Lioness Priyanka]

14. Ugh. I'm now too old for those threads

[betsuni]

11. Every time I see those damn words I feel like I'll start screaming and never stop.

Which is the point of using them, I guess. To drive us nuts.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

13. I'm trying to own them like I own queer

[JHan]

19. Good plan, I do the same :)

Yes, I am a femme queer, hate me some more.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

20. i am femme queer too and a neoliberal corporatist establishment whore

lol

[JHan]

21. let's be ...

corporatist establishment whores together...We'll neo-lib together.

LMAO.


(LMAO LMAO LMAO)

[La Lioness Priyanka]

22. ...

[irisblue]

24. Yeah me too!

Femme lesbian queer, among many other descriptives.

[JHan]

27. :D

[JHan]

18. Stop neo-libbing.. this instant!

[Permanut]

23. This is the most insane poll evah..

Cool!!

😊👍

[sheshe2]

25. Priceless!

[Eliot Rosewater]

26. Like I have said, certain "progressives" are going to guarantee the GOP stays in power

and that is why I treat that faction as enemies of democracy and freedom.

[RainCaster]

28. Peeing on a Russian mattress

Earning lots of money from the Cheeto Tweeter

[La Lioness Priyanka]

29. Ummm no

[R B Garr]

30. You are probably corporatisting all over the place!

That's just how us corporatists roll! I'm always throwing money at them. I feel so dirty.

[JHB]

31. Lint!

No, wait, that's the answer to "What have I got in my pocket?"

[ismnotwasm]

32. Well, At my establishment Nursing Job today

I gave out some coroportist pain meds, supporting the evil neo-lib agenda.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

33. From big pharma?

[ismnotwasm]

34. Yup--Big Pharma-coroptist-neo-lib establishment nursing

It's how I roll.

[bettyellen]

52. You two aren't killing me!

[brer cat]

35. I'm a proud member of the same group. nt

[Starry Messenger]

36. I was a coastal elite practically all day

I went to the SFMOMA with my mom, and then we speculated about Trump and Russia during lunch. We forgot to mention Hillary, which was an oversight. We did talk about Michelle Obama though, since mom saw her appearance on the ESPYs and said she sobbed during the whole thing, like a neoliberal.

[JHan]

37. sounds legit...

Your day was so elitist you never found the time to spare a thought for the desperate starving people making $72,000 a year

[Starry Messenger]

38. Nope, not even for a second.

I was also surrounded by people who were not white, straight, from here, and/or other other. Nancy Pelosi was probably around somewhere recently, and SF pretty much went seventy-billion percent for Hillary. Of course, we are all millionaires who fly in rocket cars, so that explains it.

[Squinch]

42. No lattes? Aren't they a requirement of coastal elitism? I know I can't get through a day of

coastal elitism-ing without a few lattes.

[Starry Messenger]

44. No, but it was illy brand coffee.

I take it black though.

[BainsBane]

39. I spent today

Like most days doing liberal elitist stuff, like reading and writing.
I also did identity politics stuff, having to do with my lady parts.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

43. ..

[JHan]

46. ....

We liberal elites know how to have fun

[George II]

64. Just too cool!!! Thanks.

[Vinca]

47. My guess was watching Scaramucci while throwing up.

[Shandris]

49. I didn't see the entry for 'Creating a poll'. :-) n/t

[Warpy]

51. If you've got any sense at all, you're doing what I'm doing

I'm sitting in front of a fan, waiting for the worst of summer heat to be over.

[NastyRiffraff]

53. Just another neo-liberal here

Reading the Washington Post (a paper run by an oligarch), taking my Big Pharma meds, driving my Volvo to meet up with like-minded ex-hippies at Starbucks (looking forward to a frappuccino!) then going to Whole Foods to get some organic granola.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

56. That is corporatist af. How can you live with yourself?

Lol and

[JHan]

57. I think NastyRiffraff just blew the corporatist-o-meter to bits.

[JHan]

58. all that's missing is a kale smoothie.

Epic post.

(lol)

[underpants]

54. Being awesome

[WoonTars]

59. Not posting anymore?

[opiate69]

61. !

[George II]

62. What's that supposed to mean, hmmmmmm?

[JHan]

63. I'd wager it's self satisfaction they got out of alerting.

[Quayblue]

60. ....
