JCC Political ****posting Thread

Yes, after posting I saw the video. She really just said "he was never a republican", among many other things, talking about Bernie. I think it's fair to say that they all kinda overreacted.
Also, enough with this obsession for Jill Stein's voters, at this point it's reaching the level of parody.

 

I’m more concerned about the fact that Biden is gaining, despite gaffe after gaffe.

I have a terrible feeling he’s going to end up the Democratic nominee next year, and then Trump will cruise to reelection.

 

Yeah, for one -- that's only CNN so it's one (and only one) pollster. For sure, Harris is dipping, but Biden / Warren / Sanders have been all over the place with national polls. And second it's national polling, which is still reflecting Biden's "electability argument" as valid... he's dropped 11 points in Nevada, 12 points in NH, etc. He appears thus far to be holding steady in Iowa and SC so far, but still a long way to go...

 

^Difficult to distinguish satire and reality nowadays

 

Thanks for your dated scaremongering, Hasbro. I didn't think they could do worse than "Millennial Monopoly," but they showed me!

 

I like how a system where everyone shares is a system where no one wins, because that’s what we teach children in kindergarten.

 

Lmao bootlickers get booty blasted so easily

Spoiler: naughty word

 

The irony is that the original Monopoly - which Parker Brothers effectively stole without credit - was a game designed to teach why monopolies are bad.

Also, Monopoly is ****ing boring.

 

I would pay good money to play this with you and Vivec.

 

Not just that, but the inventor of The Landlord's Game, Lizzie Magie, was a radical feminist and georgist (a progressive land reform movement that would absolutely be decried as the most radical sort of socialism today).

Nothing more capitalist than the powerful stealing whatever they can, exploiting it until it becomes worthless, and then blaming their victims for the mess left behind.

 

I actually own a game called Anti-Monopoly



My mom got this for me when I was a kid. Essentially, you're divided into two types of players: Monopolists and Competitors. And the rules you follow are based on that.
