ahahahahaha

2018-04-27 05:02:06 UTC  

that guy in the middle

2018-04-27 05:02:16 UTC  

he's the one who invited me to come with him

2018-04-27 05:02:36 UTC  

while he was waiting in line, I texted him saying that he should say that he voted for Trump in front of everyone

2018-04-27 05:02:45 UTC  

he texted back saying "no, no real life shitposting today"

2018-04-27 05:03:02 UTC  

I'm a little to the left, out of the frame of the picture

2018-04-27 05:03:14 UTC  

pics or it didnt happen

2018-04-27 05:03:44 UTC  

I see what you mean by real life shitposting now

2018-04-27 05:03:49 UTC  

its a convention full of dems

2018-04-27 05:04:09 UTC  

" One questioner asked if he would commit to calling Trump a fascist and white supremacist, rather than what the questioner asserted were euphemistic terms like “alt-right.” "

2018-04-27 05:04:31 UTC  

yeah, that's the ANTIFA guy who started off by saying he was HIV positive. LMAO at the article leaving that out

2018-04-27 05:04:40 UTC  

wtf

2018-04-27 05:04:44 UTC  

"“I’m not sure of the impact of the word ‘fascist,’” Nadler responded. “To some people, if you say ‘fascist,’ they just tune you out, they don’t listen to what you’re saying.”

When one woman shouted out, “But it’s true,” Nadler said, “Yes, it is true. But that’s not the only question. The goal is not to feel good about yourself because you said the truth. The goal is to stop what’s going on.”

Nadler did add, though, that “Donald Trump is the first major candidate in American politics, in recent decades, that I think really deserves to be called a fascist.” "

2018-04-27 05:04:52 UTC  

yeah, I remember all this happening now

2018-04-27 05:04:58 UTC  

I forgot quite a bit of what he said

2018-04-27 05:05:06 UTC  

I still remember the guy saying he was HIV positive though

2018-04-27 05:05:08 UTC  

That moment when real life and satire are indistingusiable

2018-04-27 05:06:44 UTC  

Is this like the typical leftist gathering

2018-04-27 05:06:49 UTC  

or is it considered a more mild one

2018-04-27 05:07:16 UTC  

@Swamp Killer I actually haven't been to enough events to compare things

2018-04-27 05:07:26 UTC  

remember, this event is nominally neutral

2018-04-27 05:07:47 UTC  

and I'd say many of the people who went there aren't necessarily leftists in the sense of being ANTIFA types

2018-04-27 05:07:57 UTC  

So they were mroe centrist

2018-04-27 05:07:58 UTC  

but most are definitely Democrats

2018-04-27 05:08:12 UTC  

many of the Hillary type, who look down on Sanderistas

2018-04-27 05:08:32 UTC  

Wait why do the hillary type look down on sander's people

2018-04-27 05:08:41 UTC  

remember, New York went to Hillary in the primaries, though that was partly because a lot of Sanders' fans weren't registered Democrats, and you had to be a registered Democrat to vote in the primary

2018-04-27 05:09:51 UTC  

@Swamp Killer Many Hillary supporters, particularly those from affluent urban areas like Manhattan (where rent is easily $5000 a month), are neoliberals who are fine with capitalism and free trade, think Sanders lives in la-la land and is for unkempt losers

2018-04-27 05:10:19 UTC  

the Democratic Party has been another party for the rich since the 1990s, when Bill Clinton and his neoliberalism took over

2018-04-27 05:10:28 UTC  

Manhattan in particular is full of those types

2018-04-27 05:10:34 UTC  

So Berie Sanders was too socialist for them

2018-04-27 05:10:41 UTC  

since he appealed to younger college ppl

2018-04-27 05:10:44 UTC  

NYC went to Hillary in the primaries, but upstate New York was heavily Sanders

2018-04-27 05:10:45 UTC  

yeah

2018-04-27 05:10:52 UTC  

5k rent a month?

2018-04-27 05:10:54 UTC  

holy shit

2018-04-27 05:10:58 UTC  

i thought it was bad down here

2018-04-27 05:11:04 UTC  

Manhattan isn't for populists

2018-04-27 05:11:15 UTC  

@Swamp Killer yeah, Manhattan is the most expensive place in the USA
