The entire country couldn't agree on anything if the end result of doing so was a lifetime of riches and good health for all.
We are a bunch of idiots together....and half of the idiots hate everyone else and support Trump.Post edited by F Me In The Brain onThe love he receives is the love that is saved0 -

static111 said:In my opinion if you think Ocasio-Cortez failed because of Amazon I don’t think you understand the future of the progressive movement. The last thing that people who support Ocasio-Cortez want is another corporation taking millions of dollars in corporate handouts to operate at a loss while under compensating employees and not providing good conditions for workers. She did exactly what her constituents voted her in to do, and what the progressive movement at large is fighting for. Not a mistake or a loss in the eyes of the movement that she is becoming the face of.0

You know who I really view as masters (mistresses?) of the media? The other 10 women who didn't get the VP job. All of them were able to assert their interest in the job confidently, graciously stating their support of Harris when they weren't picked, unabashedly declaring their support of Biden because they understand the stakes of this election.
Another group -- the 15 younger leaders featured in Tuesday night's keynote that ended with Stacy Abrams. Each of them got an infamous 60 seconds that night as well, but they didn't pre-Tweet a poem about how it was "forced" upon them, turning the world on fire before the 60 seconds even happened.
AOC, on the other hand, got everyone stirred up with her pre-Tweet, without even mentioning in her poem what she was really asked to do. Then she got upset in a post-Tweet when people reacted to a confusion she partially created in the first place with her "only got a minute" Tweet.
Ugh. I can't believe I'm still talking about this. It's really a shame, because the speech itself was quite eloquently written, and I can't even appreciate it because of the nonsense surrounding it. That is why I question her media skills. She's got people talking about the wrong thing all. the. time.

Since when did the entire country love someone and when did you first begin to claim speaking for the entire country?She doesn’t need to be loved by a majority of her party as she’s nipping at their heels. How is it child like to take on and beat a 20+ year incumbent in a primary, tell Bezos to fuck off and stand up for her constituents (never mind Bezo’s obscene wealth and resources-he doesn’t need charity tax breaks/credits), stand up to a repub who called her a fucking bitch and continues to work for her predominantly minority, blue collar, lower class constituency?

Regarding Bezos and Amazon, he owns all of 4% of the company. It's a publicly traded company.0 -

Other times there is more power and dignity in silence when faced with petty criticism. It is not the same thing as "STFU." If you don't know the difference, I would suggest it might be due to a lack of wisdom.
