To crush your enemies, See them driven before you, And to hear the lamentation of their women.

Conquer the things stopping you from what you want to do. This can be poverty, people, or circumstance. See those things that you have beaten lie at your feet, and revel in the outcries of the things that you now have bested.

When I got to know my gf’s mom and realized I didn’t have massive levels of stress and anxiety around her like I do with my mom.

Sup fellow film person (stunts here). I believe it. When creatives find something that works they tend to stick with it.

Yep. You literally see it all over the place.

‘I personally did not get 100% of what I wanted including free puppies for everyone, so I’m never voting again.’

Sweet, so now you get 0% of what you want, instead of 50% of what you wanted. Congrats. Have fun with that sense of moral superiority.

Obama had an entire republican party and Joe Libermann stopping medicare for all. Blame Joe Liebermann, not the guy who tried to get it done.

Biden had one of the thinnest congresses in history, yet his ledger is still full of progressive asks. That apparently isn’t good enough, because he didn’t get you 100% of what you wanted.

This is the entire problem. You expect 100% of what you demand, and when you don’t get it, you’re ‘done’ and don’t want to participate anymore.

Thank you for highlighting this for me.

Yeah I’d agree to all of that.

Sweet. Democrats had plans for a lot of those things, and you guys stayed home and now we have a Nazi in the white house.

So far it’s been pretty good personally.

I work in stunts, and started training with a new stunt team that does some pretty cool projects. I’m not a member yet, but I keep getting invited to trainings and communicating with people in the team, so it’s been going pretty good. They have a few films announced for the upcoming year, so, hopefully I get to work on a few of them!

The left cannot message, because every liberal has their own individual hierarchy of what the top policy issue should be.

And the left cannot accept that peoples’ priorities are not the same.

Sure, the Israel stuff is awful. Do you see these people complaining about Myanmar, or El Salvador, or any of the other human crisis areas in the world? No. They aren’t. They’re complaining about the hot topic item and being slacktivists online, then convincing themselves that making a statement by not participating will some how get people to pay attention to them.

I’ve seen it since the 2000’s, and frankly, I’m fucking sick and tired of terminally online liberalism. It does nothing but complain and then offers no solutions to actually get anything done.

‘We want ranked choice, we want better healthcare, we want better education’ blah blah blah then they sit at home and let a Nazi win. Twice.

Like, have fun riding your moral high horse down to the cattle cars. I hope it was worth it because the democrats didn’t prioritize giving queer pets more representation at shelters or some shit.

‘Rigging the primaries’ as in picking the person who had the most votes?

Cmon man. Did the dems play politics? Sure they did. Do you honestly expect people who are part of an established party to not rally around a candidate that has been a steadfast loyalist in the party for decades, who championed the original version of public healthcare, and instead, rally around a dude who says all the right things but can’t legislate for anything?

This is letting perfect be the enemy of good.

They’re also coopting far left groups to further their goals as well. Lets not kid ourselves.

Where do you think all the ‘don’t vote because X’ reasons suddenly came up a few months before the election in leftist circles?

A man of culture I see.

I live in LA. You can find apartments here for cheap if you look.

The whole reason southern California and the Bay Area are both expensive, is because they are some of the most desirable places to live in the entire country.

Simple as that.

You have no idea what you’re talking about.

We gave the gov’t 80+ billion dollars in taxes. Texas took 70 billion from the gov’t.

I live here. Shit’s better here than any red state I’ve lived in that’s for fucking sure.

Do you live here? Or are you just another conservative who shits on my state without having ever stepped foot in this place.

Way too many of you think you’re the ‘average person’ in this world.

I voted against the fascist, thank you very much.

Apparently, that was too hard for you.

I hope that you enjoy your moral superiority as you’re rounded up by trumps gestapo.

I just skim stories and catch a general idea of what’s going on for this reason.

‘Is this something I can actionably do something about? No? Then don’t worry about it.’

Bernie is just too old. I’m tired of geriatric people being in charge, to be honest.

He believes all the right things, but the issue is he has never, in his time in the senate, ever gotten anything major passed.

That is a huge part of leadership. You can’t just ‘be right’ you have to also get things done. I love love love Bernie’s ideas, but he has never been a good leader in that dept.
