All actions are hormonal driven actions. You don't think a man has ever been found not guilty after killing someone in a hormonal driven action?!?!

I love that they couldn't think of 4 different things so they had to use Christ and Christianity separately.

It's only hard to argue with those passages if you presume that Piker is an anti semite and that criticism of our relationship with Israel is anti semitic.

Also hilarious that there is absolutely no way trump reads those letters lol. Any sane person who spent twenty minutes with the president would know that. Just bonkers all around.

Polling has been pretty shit though hasn't it? Or has it just been shit in one direction? ie, over counting progressives.

I think the Democrats' biggest blind spot is an inability to grasp that people of bad faith are manipulating them for their own ends. You can't reach people of good faith until you address that. FINALLY some candidates get it, even if the NY Times remains clueless.

I've seen a number of race complaints on Reddit as well ... I don't know if that is a campaign or bots or whatever but it's definitely there. Often in the bigger subreddits.

Ah haha. Well as a Californian obviously I can admit to only one answer. They see delicious though, wherever they came from.

If we are relying on the Third Way to tell us not to be assholes I think we need to work a lot harder.

He's the only one expressing our values though and I think we should reward candidates for doing that. He's getting my vote although I agree re billionaires.

I'm afraid that is the optimistic take if Becerra is elected.

This is such a weird flex... Why do we care about whether our candidates know whether the editor at Wired is also an employee?

There are clearly omissions here (because there has to be), but this is a great list. All of these books are absolute bangers.

He's clearly alluding to FDR and I think that resonates pretty strongly with the base...

I guess I'm always confused by what we mean by neoliberalism, but does neoliberalism lead to the extreme wealth inequality we have today? Are the government mechanisms to address extreme wealth inequality considered neoliberal?

I feel like the whole conversation on this site has devolved into people posting to show how much more evolved their countries is on this issue or that. Elsewhere people are fully capable of acknowledging disability while-at the same time- acknowledging the very real pain those words cause.

It's very possible. And I don't mean to suggest it's clear cut by any means, only that the discussion is worth having imo. Cheers.

I've been a lawyer for over 20 years but I concede I don't do criminal. As far as I know, in CA, a 2nd degree murder conviction simply requires implied malice, ie, a conscious disregard for human life. I'm pretty sure people are convicted of this all the time.

bobwayne.bsky.social @bobwayne.bsky.social · 21/02/2026
Of course it does. It requires intent to commit the reckless act. It does not necessarily require intent to kill. Manslaughter has a negligence standard. As OP indicated, I am referring to what common law deemed reckless heart murder, often codified as 2nd degree murder.

bobwayne.bsky.social @bobwayne.bsky.social · 21/02/2026
Of course we should, I completely agree. But how is speeding around a corner without looking, in crosswalk near a bus stop, different than firing a bullet into a house? A car can be just as dangerous as a gun and perhaps we should expect children in a crosswalk just as we expect them in a house.

bobwayne.bsky.social @bobwayne.bsky.social · 21/02/2026
Right. Perhaps people are asking for a re-assessment of what we consider reckless behavior in public spaces. But this does not turn on whether a specific death is "accidental" or not.

bobwayne.bsky.social @bobwayne.bsky.social · 21/02/2026
Murder doesn't have to be intentional. Even if you don't specifically intend to murder someone, if you are behaving recklessly without care for whether one lives or dies and you kill someone, that is still murder. I think a lot of time, what we refer to as "accidents" falls into this category.

If they would have ended with them killing the bad guy it could have worked! But that third act man... Dangitt.

Oh yeah ok. I guess I should have assumed he wouldn't be your ideal pick haha.

That is the problem though right? If elected to the highest office, who applies the most pressure? We need someone that's able to fight the pressure that big money brings, not someone who caves to it.

Then they can do that now as well too and we might as well beat them to it. How can we pretend to have a democracy when both CA and WY have the same number of senators?
