Wow. Hope you let off some steam?

Best way to oust this president is by voting in somebody better. You can keep on blaming me or other 3rd party voters if you want. I’ll just continue to blame the DNC for insisting on Hillary and not capitalizing or at least consolidating on sanders momentum.

Third party voters ARE to blame. Our presidential general election isn't the place or time to assuage your fee fees. There are two candidates who have a good chance of winning. Choosing anyone else is folly.
Oh, and it wasn't "the DNC" that insisted on Hillary; 4 million more people voted for her in the primary. That you're still saying that just shows how much propaganda you consumed.
Yes. The Russians perpetuated the "bernie was cheated lie" in the immediate aftermath of the primary.

Spoiler:

Hillary wasn’t the better candidate because I’m not sure if she had any real core values. She’s just a more politically correct trump, would say or be whatever voters or lobbyists want. The only dem candidate like that now is probably Harris. Used to be your favorite, is she still is?

Keep telling yourself that as children are put in cages, Puerto Rico, etc. Keep comforting yourself with that lie.

Spoiler:

The only possible way for dem to lose my vote again is to nominate Harris as their candidate. I think the likelihood of that should be low.

So, assuming Kamala wins, you're saying you're quite willing to burn down this country in order to ... prove what exactly? That blackmail tactic won't work; we've already got Trump. Y'all petulant third party voters shot the hostage when you voted the way you did last time around. You can't blackmail us with more Trump, and that's why you'll find there's a metric fuckton of pushback to that "my candidate or Trump" attitude.
Then y'all have the nerve to also whine about how the left is divided.
Like I said earlier, introspection is not your strong suit.

Spoiler:

This time around, pretty much every candidate is a type of Bernie Sanders.

Only one serious candidate is a grifter; Sanders. None are a type of Sanders.

Spoiler:

Btw, how many times do you really need to remind me google is free? Do you really believe that I don’t know that? Come on dude, come up with better and new insults at least.

It's not an insult, it's a fact. You seem unable to research basic information. I'm bringing that fact into your conscience; It's 2019, and google is still free.

Spoiler:

Lastly, you really need to stop warping twist other people's words and actions. Do you know me? No you don't. You don't even believe I can google. After I googled and found a 'white' psychologist... you can immediately tell by the color of his skin that his words are wrong.

No. Your reading comprehension is quite shit too. Clearly.

And that is the bullshit i was talking about; the victims doing the emotional labor of others. Why shouldn't I get angry? Why can't I get angry? Policing my emotions is just another form of supremacy.

The title and lede said it all. I literally stopped reading right there.
And of course billi thinks that's not quite what it says. And did you notice that he didn't seem open to that interpretation, preferring to hug his version that says "racist won't change so fuck it."

But he's trying to talk to me through the other side of his forked tongue saying "how can we reduce/ eliminate racism?' just a few posts ago. I wasn't foold then, and i'm not fooled when he posts trash think pieces that don't do anything to actually change his world view, but reinforce it.

I clearly read the title, and read the lede. I said so right there. My conclusions and decision to stop were based on that. It told me enough. You may choose to entertain your mind with drivel, but I don't. I won't.

Spoiler:

Dude, you are a black/thought supremacist! Anyone who doesn't fit your 'dogma' is just fucking wrong, right?

Examples. Show your work

Spoiler:

Why are you afraid to compare 'dogmas' and may the best dogma win?

Casting pearls before swine. You're on most peoples ignore list because you argue in bad faith. You use strawman/ red herring arguments, reducio ad absurdum, fallacies, etc.

Spoiler:

Let's move the discussion forward dude.

Which candidate do you support and why?

I support Yang. Why? Because I think he has a better plan for everything than Warren. Only draw back is that he lacks political experience, but not sure if that's a bad thing.

Hope you'll be able to respond with why your candidate is better and not just continue to mouth off Yang and Billi and other white people who disagree with you.

Hope we can have meaningful discussions.

Kamala/ Castro. That's the ticket I want to see.

Both appeal to me at a basic level. As do, to a lesser extent, Booker, and Beto.

I'm not troubled by their pasts.

[Crazed_Insanity]

I guess we are really polar opposites. I’m not interested in the past anymore... so I’m gonna move on.

I don’t like Harris because I just don’t get what core message she’s delivering... other than attacking trump and Biden. Fine, they suck, but what makes you a better leader? She needs to clarify that.

I’m beginning to dislike Castro for the same reason. Do you have anything better to say other than attacking Biden? He served under the same Obama admin!!! You might as well attack Obama too?!? If you want to repent your sins, fine, but do you really need to attack your former bosses for your own gain? Too negative for me.

Of course other candidates attacked Biden too, but at least they have more plans or didn’t serve under the Obama admin directly...

It’s interesting how I dislike your candidates the most and you probably like Yang the least because he’s now my favorite!

[neanderthal]

"Attacking Biden?" It's called being vetted. Biden has an awful history. He can be made to account for it, and he's doing so poorly, making him less electable.

Oh com’on you guys give me much stronger vibes!

No doubt we do, but you asked saying it was a "little GTX poll". I have never taken a poll that immediately told me my answer was wrong.

"How satisfied were you with your customer support experience, with 1 being not satisfied and 10 being completely satisfied?" *writes in 3* "I'll have you know that we have the finest customer support in the land and that by answering three you just show that you're mired in the past and where are your ideas to make our customer support better and don't you know that if you're not satisfied that'll just mean that Comcast will buy us out and then you'll be stuck with them and how will you like that?!?"

Ding ding ding.

[Crazed_Insanity]

I only asked a general question, you claimed to feel the vibe that I’m telling you that you are wrong. ( I didn’t)

If you’re convinced that you made the right choice, you probably won’t feel such vibe.

Seriously, election choices are never right or wrong or black or white. Of all people, even I know such nuances. Okay, trump is as close to being wrong as one can be, but I wouldn’t call everyone who elected him wrong. It’s their right.

Castro did to Biden what Neanderthal does to Billi. Don’t take my words for it.

You are straight up gaslighting at this point. You did not ask a general question. You literally said "I know which candidate I like, but just wondering which ones you guys like so that we can conduct our own little GTX poll here." That is the only reason I answered, because I have no desire to enter into a debate with you because I know how you debate and I have no interest in doing that again.

FFS, own it. Don't dance around it like a Trump press secretary. BTW, I also don't have any interest in debating this either. I answered because I thought you were genuinely curious about how people stood. It's clear that that wasn't the motivation, and I have zero desire to subject myself or anyone else in this thread to any more of it.

You mean call him out on his bull shit?

Biden did say at several points before Castro challenged him that enrollment would be automatic — essentially a formality.

Biden said that "anyone who can't afford it gets automatically enrolled in the Medicare-type option we have."

He also said, "If you want Medicare, if you lose the job from your insurance — from your employer — you automatically can buy into this. No pre-existing condition can stop you from buying in. You get covered, period."

Swervo, where did I say that you’re wrong? Read my general questions below along with my other comments.

Yes, after we studied them, which democratic candidate do you think is the most appealing to the trump supporters?

Most capable of bridging the wealth gap?

I’m not attacking warren, I don’t mind if she ended up winning, I just think there’s a better man for the job.

Also, my earlier comments was meant to remind liberals to not focus too much on partisan politics but attention should be paid to actually fixing America’s trouble road ahead... there’s no time for status quo and partisan politics

Not going to own what I didn’t say.
Whatever vibrations you picked up, whatever misunderstandings, I’d be happy to clear it up. If you want to insist you know billi better than I know billi, I guess I can’t stop you, just not going to own that version of billi.
