Dec 8

offering up even more opportunities to disparage Democrats, insult intelligence, make ageist remarks, split hairs, hyper-analyze, second-guess, BMW-ing, and to use all the anti-Dem buzz-words to beckon virtue-signaling Democrat-haters from miles away. Of course, messages like this are designed to create FUD and to suppress the vote by making Democrats believe that "it's all over" and "a lost cause" and "why fucking bother?" The "woe are we" message is a real winner, eh? A vote-getter, eh? Fuck this "Canadian perspective" BS.

Strange thing... Bernie Sanders likes to "gesture" too... funny how we NEVER hear this youtube pundit (or others with similar views) complain about that. Yet... when it's someone like Newsom who "gestures" it's an entirely different story and reaction. "Oh dear God, the world is ending, and it will be used by the right to ridicule him." (Apparently it's not ONLY the right who's trying to kneecap and "ridicule" him.)

So, you disagree with the content of the video? It is not clear that you have anything about the video in your reply. xocetaceans Dec 8 #11
