Not arguing. Successful could mean many things. I took it to mean best.

I personally thought the Dr Dre, Snoop Dog etc show at SoFi was the best.
This show was cool but it should have been in the Bronx or maybe Miami. SF/SJC do not have a PR footprint it’s a Mexican crowd.
I was proud of the NFL for having a spine. And sticking to their Push to the South.

I’m going to block this person just because I can tell they are going to say something stupid at me in the future. <done>

The proper recourse here is to ignore and block. It’s astonishing how may people exist here for no other reason than to engage in mindless disagreement. You know you are right. I know you are right. None of this makes any sense.

Yeah, this is just a bad take. While there is way more Jesus in the locker rooms than I care to hear about it isn’t coupled to white nationalism in the way the poster thinks it is.

It’s much easier than this. Bad bunny criticized trump. If you want conservative white spaces that’s Nascar and Hockey. NFL is 70% Black.

I can say plenty of words but can’t hear the word boundaries spoken by any native speaker which makes two way communication hard. This includes French and Spanish. But if non-native speakers I can do ok.

The point is not to not be arrested in civil disobedience. The point is to overwhelm the system with the lack of humanity. If you think the civil rights movement would have been half as successful with masked black men sitting on stools… the people who wear the masks are the Klan and the Gestapo.

And this only works if the faces being prosecuted are visible. Anonymous masked figures are terrifying. Just like ICE. If people can’t see the humanity of one side and the evil of the other, it doesn’t work to protest.

So you are just writing about crap you know nothing about. Great.
Read PMC6426150 as example.
I want kids to have preschool. It’s good for them. But PFA is like great idea let’s do it stupid. And accusing me of swallowing conservative lies is just plain offensive.

Yes. If they don’t provide high quality preschool. Do you even have children???

It’s not preschool. It’s childcare. It costs 2x as much and the law doesn’t even require the quality required to get preschool for benefit. It’s just child warehousing.

Sadly, it proves me correct. Preschool is 3-5 hours per day. Not 6-10+. That is child care or child care + preschool. 3-4 year olds can’t handle 10 hour days of learning. Even kindergarten is only 6 hours. Second, none of the performance requirements are in the initiative. They can all be revoked.

PFA was sold as preschool, not childcare. Preschool is 3-5 hours per day and enhances social skills and learning when executed well. Childcare does not require preschool and the implementation of PFA did not require quality checks to insure that it met program objectives. Childcare is 8-10 hours.

I am happy to pay well considered, well planned, and well executed taxes. A $600M reserve is insane. Preschool where there has been proven benefit (not 8-6 childcare) costs $5-7k 5 days per week. Childcare is $12-18k. A 15 year reserve for preschool is nuts. The entire premise of PFA is wrong.

Massive needless reserves. For goodness sakes Tina Kotek is hating on it. When I lived in PDX this program cost me $25 in taxes but the red-tape made the COST of paying those taxes an hour of my time and $75 to my tax guy. It’s not a state program so it’s going to make people move in and out.

Healthcare for all in PDX is a really silly platform. Oregon is like 97% insured. preschool for all has been a disaster. And their healthcare infrastructure is breaking.

They think you are wrong and by seeing the “light” on this topic you will see the “light” about everything. And then they are angry you don’t. Despite the fact that the entire DSA platform is an unworkable, wildly unpopular, pile of nonsense.

Sadly they do. It’s quite astonishing. If you actually ready the DSA website this is what it sounds like. I keep reading it, hoping they will learn to talk like actual humans who live in a real world. But literally no. They do not.

Just tell them to 1) grow up and 2) block them. Engaging with the 0.1% of opinions is utterly pointless.
Last year I had exchanges with a communist party member who didn’t think the DSA platform sounded socialist enough, they were impure, and I couldn’t even…

You sir, are a maroon. Calling for the French Revolution when the proper response is civil disobedience is bad strategy. I am not claiming all conflict can be solved by non-violence but I am claiming when violence is necessary it is a last resort and guerrilla warfare will not win in its own.
