Are the Jackass Radicals celebrating yet?

This was part of the 18 dimensional plan they concocted to make America a socialist beacon, right?

1. You mean the extreme minority of Bernie supporters who voted 3rd party?

You know, the smaller percentage of Bernie supporters that voted 3rd party/Trump than the percentage of Hillary supporters that voted 3rd party/Romney? There's no need to throw salt at them. Focus your ire toward the Republicans who are introducing, and now passing, this BS legislation.

4. Throw salt?

I was thinking more of a flaming bag of my shit to throw at them.

2. Reminds me of the night of Ossoff election

"Progressive" Katrina vanden Huevel, a prominent Buster and Putin hacking denialist, could barely contain her glee, and was retweeting rightwing memes mocking the Dem loss.

5. people like her make more money when republicans are in power

they don't do so well when we had a president obama and things were getting better and people were not as upset.

3. those first two replies are interesting. nt

6. They will rationalize it away by saying Hillary would have passed a similar bill.

Or they will say that Clinton would have gotten us into World War III so even if this tax bill is bad at least the world wasn't destroyed. Or they will take the "accelerationist" position popular among some far left types that things need to get worse before they get better so we need the GOP to ruin and pauperize more Americans before they get the message and become militant socialists and then the socialist revolution can happen.

None of them will admit that maybe voting for Trump/Stein/Johnson or not voting at all was a dumb idea.

[progree]

14. I read a couple of Jackoff Radical threads about the tax bill

surprisingly they were both very negative about the tax bill

==AND SHOCKINGLY==

I didn't see any mention of Hillary or Clinton -- I did a search on "hill" and another search on "Clinton", and also skimmed many responses.

That said, there are plenty of threads that make the case (in their moronic minds) that Hillary would be even worse at just about everything than Trump. And yes, that we would be in all kinds of full-scale wars started by "Queen Hillary" right now. Sigh.

None of them will admit that maybe voting for Trump/Stein/Johnson or not voting at all was a dumb idea.

Your right. No signs of self-reflection or soul-searching over there. I saw one idiotic response about needing to "get out the vote". Well, ummm, yeah, getting a few more thousand people to vote for Stein or write in Bernie is going to fix everything

[yardwork]

18. That's a good summary of the various types of delusions.

[greyl]

7. irrelevant

"kill off the middle class and poor and elderly and sick" ahem tax bill hits them between the eyes?

Dumbasses.

[Kentonio]

11. It says an awful lot that when the GOP pass something

We have people here looking for someone on the left to kick instead. Seriously, do we not have fucking better things to do right now?

[RhodeIslandOne]

12. Its a reminder that the theres no difference stuff is shit

And anyone making such an argument should pound sand.

[Squinch]

15. They are not "someone on the left." Their reaction, from what I read, seems to be

that Flynn did nothing illegal and anyway if he did it was Obama's fault.

Did we not have fucking better things to do in the past, and do we not have fucking better things to do in the future, than to defend as allies people who regularly fuck us over and who contributed to the mess we are in today?

[Kentonio]

20. Who is defending them?

Where are all the threads here from people standing up for those people and talking about how they shouldn't be criticized?

It doesn't happen. What we do get though is multiple threads each week talking about how shitty these people (who don't post here anyway) are, how they should be shamed etc, and often it ends up turning into some wider condemnation of the left.

It's pointless and often ends up being unnecessarily divisive. Can we just agree that none of us agree with them, and focus on the Republicans who are the ones we are actually fighting right now, instead of some tiny insignificant group of crazy people?

[Squinch]

21. No. We can't agree that none of us agree with them. There are plenty from there posting

here. Some are sincere. Some are trolling us. MANY of them were trolling us during the election.

So no thanks. I will keep an eye on them, and comment on them here whenever I think it's warranted. I don't want us to make the same mistake again.

And, no, it does NOT turn into a "wider condemnation of the left." All of US here ARE the left. THEY are not.

[Kentonio]

22. Ok, whatever makes you happy

It just seems pretty pointless tbh.

[Squinch]

13. LOL! I just looked. There is ONE OP about Flynn with a handful of posts, most of

which are saying, "But, but, there was nothing WRONG with what Flynn did!"

There's also some Obama blaming. Can't make this shit up.

[progree]

16. I know. I read Jackoff Radicals a couple times a week or so, and they seem to be unaminous

and undying in their faith that the "Russian connection" is just a bunch of fake news malarkey to distract us from the failure of the DNC and The Third Way yada yada etc. etc.

[Squinch]

17. I never go there, but this thread made me curious. It's really an alternate reality over there.

[yardwork]

19. Of course. Their funding comes directly from the Kremlin.

It's entirely possible that the site owners themselves don't even know that. Who were they to look a gift horse in the mouth.
