Rant: So many say you must join teh DP to vote in their primary

Submitted by LaFeminista on Fri, 04/22/2016 - 2:28pm

OK, that fucking does it.

I will apply the same logic to the general election.

I refuse to join the Democratic Party, and since many want to close their primary off, I wont vote for them in the general either.

See how that works?

DP supporters are becoming as shitty as GOP ones, we don't want your vote in our primary, but we want it in the general.

It doesn't fucking work like that.

There's the problem right there

The adult entertainment site GameLink has released the best selling porn titles in North Carolina, which are My TS Teacher, Shemale Shenanigans, and Joey Silvera'a Trans-Visions 6.

We have seen significant growth in the viewing of TS movies in North Carolina since 2012. Viewing TS movies has increased 64.3 percent [for North Carolina]; our average state increase during this time is 47 percent.

Has anyone else noticed that they've closed a spitload (66%) of polling sites, making lines longer and confusing people who don't look at the notifications about where they'll be voting?

Bets on Clinton's and DNC chairwitch's blatant urging them to "save money" had a huge effect?

Submitted by Borkrom on Fri, 04/22/2016 - 1:46pm

I would love for all of you to watch this video from the Gandhi movie (1982) - it is about 3 or so minutes in length but it is powerful! It Gandhi's major speech against the discrimination laws of South Africa during the late 1800s/early 1900s. Please watch and think about it for you and us.

Please note the major themes of his speech and think about them:

Building the Foundations for the Resilience Resource Library (RRL)

Submitted by Alison Wunderland on Fri, 04/22/2016 - 1:31pm

This is a discussion essay to flesh out the basics for the Resilience Resource Library. The foundations are very important for the future stability of the structure--any structure.

I'll be lifting comments from various posters to build the "mission statement", a (hopefully) consensual definition of "resilience" and some suggestions for the working model of the Library.

Bernie or Bust vs. Statist Party Fealty

Submitted by bondibox on Fri, 04/22/2016 - 10:04am

I've decided that if Bernie Sanders does not win the Democratic nomination that I will change my voter registration from lifelong Democrat to Independent.

In so doing, I will be embracing the two arguments against it. That is, I won't be able to participate in closed primaries, and I won't be helping to build party unity. The party will have shown me that its intentions and my values do not align - why should I work to strengthen it?
