You responded thinking I was actually serious and it wasn't just me trolling. I mean to be that dense that even meme arrows weren't enough for you.


I understand quite well that you know it's a joke of an issue, DJ on the other hand not 100% sure. To add another layer I think a lot of people further stuff they know is BS to use it for white noise to further their own side.

meme posts like this subject really belong in the Duffpost thread, which should get about 30 posts a day, instead they're scattered across legit content threads. it's annoying that literally every topic quickly goes to partisan mud slinging hackery, only slightly better than my AOE centrist slinging to be fair.

There is no message apart from healthcare. Unfortunately, the media gets results and it turns out 2+ years of Drumpf is Hitler propaganda looks to be rather effective.

I anticipate Nevada will be solidly blue. The Democrats seem to have endless finances, the culinary union donates hundreds of thousands and essentially buses uninformed peasants to the polls, and demographics is destiny. Like I've been saying for years, a Hispanic majority (hell, a non-white majority) means you will never have a conservative elected to office. And when Dems get in, they use their power to sure up their voter base with lax immigration laws. Nevada will go the way of California as far as voting goes.

EDIT

That's my Nevada feeling. The rest of the country will be much closer.

Conservatives need to take back schools, entertainment, and the immigration system. We can't play defensive any more against cheaters.

I enjoy breasts in my entertainment too much to want conservatives to take it over.

Then they need to increase teacher pay, learn how to write shows that people want to watch, and get rid of their xenophobia.

You're going to need about 50 years worth of working on messaging towards women to have even a shot in hell of "taking back schools". Right now they're largely liberal and extremely defensive, and looking for special powers to negotiate their own pay. You'll need to moderate the population of teachers somehow, then convince the unions that arguing for their own pay is against their own interest.

entertainment and immigration would be much more realistic goals, although entertainment is gone. be happy some notable niches have formed.

Charter schools are the future. Unions will be dead in the generation because they don't serve children only themselves.

charter schools are the 21st century white flight. they're not even close to a viable option for educational reform. They just shuffle cattle to closed pastures for them to eat into the ground before moving on to the next pasture.

If successful, they kill funding for public schools. Its going to create pressures similar to a market.
