as a liberal i agree, but as someone who has spent dozens of hours canvassing the median american on nextdoor this meme is completely correct and liberals suck
Saw someone repost this but, folks, this is literally the liberal position. It doesn't get more liberal.

Fundamentally there's this weird way that people conflate the actual thing you're measuring with the thing you're trying to measure when it comes to exams. The reason that accommodations exist is because time pressure during exams is not reflective of the actual thing you're trying to measure
A lot of education discourse is at root an inability to decide whether the purpose of our education system is to 1) teach material and measure learning 2) reward students who work hard 3) separate the smart kids (destined for smart guy jobs) from the dumb kids (destined to serve the smart guys)

I hope if nothing else it opens people's eyes to what's going on. I used to consistently hear "the media just wants clicks/ratings." If they wanted that they would be doggedly pursuing the Epstein story. But what they actually want is to help Trump rule us and ultimately enslave us
Any other time, any other President, and "the dude was in a global conspiracy to fuck them kids" would have been 24/7 coverage. Even Dubya.

I remember the fucking Lewinsky coverage. Our media have become craven hacks carrying water for rich pedophiles and I feel insane typing that but there it is.

"my least woke opinion is---"

That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.

Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

this is the single biggest reason the Democratic Tea Party has to be real and immediate, because the party as currently constituted will not do this
something I've been thinking about if/when we retake power is we're really going to need to shock & awe the elites with accountability. hit em hard and fast. gotta break the entire system and don't give it time to regroup.

I've actually tried to game out how to accomplish vegan political objectives without generating too much backlash; I think one way to do it is to repeal agricultural gag laws and then ride the backlash to impose strong animal welfare laws that have the effect of dramatically increasing meat prices

i'm convinced if we ever tried to touch the rail of meat politics in America (something that's going to eventually need to happen in order to reduce CO2 emissions), it would lead to a huge right-wing shock
remembering the time a random catholic priest got mad at me about a hypothetical about the government restricting meat production on the other site

meat politics is going to be insane for the next Dem administration which takes climate change seriously, imo

Who wants to use a credit card / go to a store when you can't tell if the form of payment you brought is accepted until you try it?

The best explanation here is: they know much of the American economy is more collusive than competitive, so consumers generally won't have a choice anyway.

I don’t think the GOP realizes how close they are to (redacted). Like, they’re not feeding the army let alone paying them, they’ve canceled the bread dole, the rest of the economy is circling the drain, the air transport system is about to collapse, etc

Someone else on this site is currently insisting it is "delusional" to think Democrats will arrest or even fire anyone in ICE.

I prefer Mr Kristol's approach. Stake out the bold, principled position, and build demand for Democrats to do the right thing.

There will be no justice if we don't TRY.

people hate hearing this but it's 100% true, creating a huge pay gap between political leaders, their staffs, and other elites is a recipe for corruption. of course the flip side of that is taxes on the rich should be jacked way the hell up
The Mayor of New York only makes $260k. I bet there are police that make more than that in NY with overtime.

We need to pay elected leaders more money and stop pretending it's some sort of calling. They're managing hundreds of billions of dollars in investments and millions of people's lives.

There needs to be trials and there needs to be people sent to die in a prison cell. Consequences must fall on the people who issued the orders and those who carried them out. We must make the punishment of these people a national spectacle that will be remembered for generations.
