    YANG: Computers are taking over, and we need to prepare our society and workforce for that change.

    SANDERS: I do not know that much about those computer-things the kids play with. But I do agree. It is our big challenge.

    PETE: The future is challenges. But the past is an arc and it bends towards the future. If we not let it define us.

    BLOOMBERG: "You know why computers will never take the place of people? Because a computer would say that the sex of the person giving you a blow job doesn't matter!"

    Sanders’ and Trump’ supporters have something in common | Opinion

    https://www.nj.com/opinion/2020/02/sanders-and-trump-supporters-have-a-lot-in-common.html
    Unfortunately, the thing they don’t have in common is numbers.  Trump’s supporters are 40% of the country.  Bernie’s are probably 5%. Maybe 10.

    I bet the Amy Army is behind that. Very similiar to Trump. Gonna have to write an op-ed about how similar they are. 

    DAMN YOU AMY! STAY AWAY FROM BERNIE AND TREAT HIM AS FLYOVER COUNTRY!

    (One should not support the dairy industry, if possible)

    If thinking about disparaging John Oliver for having an opinion, just know that he is an american citizen now and is eligible to vote in your elections:

    https://youtu.be/7Z2XRg3dy9k

    "The american healthcare system gives you so many choices as to how you want to get fucked. It truly is the kamasutra of healthcare"




    He believes in universal healthcare, and thinks the UK system is far better than the US and something similar should be implemented.

    Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., has for years cast his opposition to the Iraq War as near-absolute, but a review into his record shows that his position wasn't as absolute as he claims. Heidi Przybyla discusses her reporting.

    Has anyone heard of the snafu that’s happening in Nevada?  I thought the left were supposed to be technology heroes?  Hilarious, it’s seriously so messed up.  Where is Shadow anyway while their garbage apps don’t work?  They just want to rig the system for whoever the dnc want... as San Fran Nan said “it’s too dangerous to allow the voters to decide!”

    Okay, keeping score here.  I'm now terrible at technology and I don't care about people.  Are there any other generalizations you can make about 46 million people?  Do I kick puppies too?  Why are your conclusions so fucking moronic?
    *Edit, note that I didn't ask why the Right's conclusions are moronic... I'm asking about your idiotic conclusions.  See the difference?

    Why does Chuck Todd shake and stutter of irritation whenever he covers Bernie Sanders? He even interrupts pundits to point out false things about the man. I get that it's cable news and there are no rules and regulations. But what the hell.

    I like you, so I'm going to help you out here.  These are not apple to apple comparisons.  The chart on the left are ACTUAL voting results.  This means 100% accurate for who has voted.  The one on the left is polling, which uses statistical analysis and allows undecideds.  You don't have undecideds after voting.  So the comparison is useless.  Second, did you point out the "likes" as if that's relevant to accuracy, or was it the twit?

    I just posted the tweet. That had both the images in it. I don't know how to link a "string of tweets" on here.

    If you ask me if I drew the circles and arrows, then... You can't draw on a tweet. i would have to screenshot it and draw on it. And then it would be an image, and not a linked tweet...

    Bernie is as overpowered as Metal Man in Mega Man 2.



    That’s a series of hypothetical head to head polls . IMO if respondents are being asked to give up on their preferred choice, there is a good chance they will pick the front runner, so “their vote matters most.” But that’s not the way it works IRL. Bernies gains in national polling can be directly correlated to Warrens decline. Is it coincidence that they were the only M4A candidates getting any attention in the polls?

    I seldom watch TV but did for a while today.  The media and money influence on election as seen on TV is a joke.  After a while, I'd had enough and turn the damned thing off.  Man, oh man, what a crock.
