It's kinda annoying, IMO.

2018-09-28 20:20:34 UTC  

Somebody stop him!!

2018-09-28 20:20:40 UTC  

He’s actually taking a side??!!!

2018-09-28 20:20:45 UTC  

OUTRAGEOUS.

2018-09-28 20:21:00 UTC  

hes the next Bernie Sanders, imo

2018-09-28 20:21:16 UTC  

"Gimme ya money"

2018-09-28 20:21:22 UTC  

"Gonna give it to the blacks"

2018-09-28 20:21:56 UTC  

Tim owes us half of his beanie

2018-09-28 20:22:08 UTC  

@devpav not really, it's much more narrow, but they didn't flip sides completely. Unions still voted primarily Democrat. And it's only a couple unions that would flip in the near future. AFT is solidly Blue now more than ever.

UAW leadership has been praising Trump however. There could be a shift in the making. Republicans might have actually shot themselves in the foot passing Right to Work if it happens.

2018-09-28 20:22:25 UTC  

Everything is weird.

2018-09-28 20:22:45 UTC  

Manchin's unions (coal country) would be ones to flip.

2018-09-28 20:23:26 UTC  

likelihood of armed partisan mobs?

2018-09-28 20:23:30 UTC  

probably not

2018-09-28 20:23:32 UTC  

yet

2018-09-28 20:23:51 UTC  

We already have those in the streets of Berkley and Seattle.

2018-09-28 20:23:51 UTC  

i mean guns not what antfa uses

2018-09-28 20:23:58 UTC  

mobs? yes not yet. militant cells? sure.

2018-09-28 20:24:03 UTC  

Antifa carries guns in their stuff.

2018-09-28 20:24:08 UTC  

Concealed and likely illegal.

2018-09-28 20:25:29 UTC  

I'd say the coalminers unions would do anything for Trump nowadays.

2018-09-28 20:25:53 UTC  

Have they donated R yet?

2018-09-28 20:25:58 UTC  

That's the key point when it flips.

2018-09-28 20:26:15 UTC  

When they put money to the Republicans and are running ads in favor of the Republicans.

2018-09-28 20:26:23 UTC  

And getting absolutely excoriated in the press.

2018-09-28 20:26:36 UTC  

And all the free market progressives appear and suddenly don't like unions.

2018-09-28 20:26:44 UTC  

Their industry is already savagely excoriated by the press.

2018-09-28 20:26:49 UTC  

And the progressives decide they only like the "right" unions.

2018-09-28 20:26:57 UTC  

I don't think they'd care either.

2018-09-28 20:27:23 UTC  

But you can get signal from negative press to an extent. And we haven't got that yet.

2018-09-28 20:29:45 UTC  

The more I read about historical Nazi propaganda, the more I get disturbed about today (for example, I never realized white guilt is basically "England's guilt").

2018-09-28 20:29:59 UTC  

This is interesting. I would like to know more.

2018-09-28 20:31:24 UTC  

Essentially, England's capitalist ways led it to exploit the rest of the world in the past and it should feel guilty about it

2018-09-28 20:31:25 UTC  

@Nine any links ?

2018-09-28 20:32:11 UTC  

The east india trade company

2018-09-28 20:32:26 UTC  

Didn't Hitler idolize the English though?

2018-09-28 20:32:50 UTC  

Hitler idolized the germans

2018-09-28 20:33:33 UTC  

right, but he wanted an alliance with the English and was deeply hurt they didn't want him.

2018-09-28 20:33:43 UTC  

He liked the fact that they'd built such a massive empire.

2018-09-28 20:33:51 UTC  

They didnt teach me dat in history class

2018-09-28 20:33:53 UTC  

And wanted to meet and exceed it with his own.
