I hope someone asks JD Vance his opinion on Coakley’s words. Not because I expect Vance to have a thoughtful response, I’m just interested in the comedic value of the exchange.

Being against the death penalty means you don't have to engage in insane debates on when, why, where, and in what form state-sanctioned murder is legitimate. Live-streamed or hidden away behind walls, by gun, gas, or hanging, the death penalty is an abomination.

at one point segregation and anti miscegenation laws polled off the charts in south carolina. should we have been ok with a democratic candidate who said black people were less than human so we can "win first"? no? then why the fuck is it ok to do this against trans people? hint: it isnt.

A bonkers response. The question is also a little odd. What do you mean how do you define socialism personally? Personally? OK, if that's what we are doing we are going to get Cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs answers like the one below. Neither of the things Vance lists has anything to do with socialism.

He was radicalized by the FBI which engaged him for two years and then sold him a gun. If this isn’t entrapment, what is?

I want to yeet Musk right over the border wall. I would then tear down the wall but specifically exclude Musk from returning. So my policy preference is open borders and freedom of travel except for Musk. He’s on permanent yeet order.

my theory that ive been pushing since 2016 is a lot of mainstream journalists, who are overwhelmingly white, have parents and grandparents who voted for trump. instead of admitting that mom and dad and gramps and meemaw are idiot racists, we've spent the last decade pretending they arent.

Trump: "Let them take out Los Angeles, let them take out San Diego. This is very small price to pay" Tupac: "Now let me welcome everybody to the Wild Wild West A state that's untouchable like Eliot Ness."

very tired of being told it is the responsibility of urban democratic voters never to risk possibly maybe by chance seeming less than respectful of rural red state life and then watching thousands in nebraska cheer on the president joking about a nuclear strike on me and millions of my neighbors

"ICE is not an inevitable feature of the US government. It was created in the aftermath of 9/11 to turn immigration into a national security issue...The extent and scale of the abuses and failures we documented lead to only one possible road to justice: ICE must be abolished."

Sen Schumer is quoted in Semafor (10/6) as saying “If [Trump's] nominees are as crappy as his present ones, very few of them are going to get through.” VERY FEW? Try NONE. What is it going to take to get the Democratic Party to understand their role is to fight not manage the GOP?

This assumes that people follow political news, believe what is said, and balance interests and opinion. The number of people who live in an info bubble in which trans kids and open borders is a pressing concern is wild.

A lot of Trumpism boils down to the belief that accurately pointing out facts to a man caught up in emotion and false conspiracy theories is a terrible wrong, one that demands retribution.

Stop with the "academics study if very carefully..." Just say it, no need to cite your sources. Believe me, people know that the rich are getting richer and the rest are struggling, they don't need to be instructed. This is politics not Harvard's faculty lounge.

And for politicians who can’t defend trans people because it’s the right thing to do, the fact that attacks on trans people does nothing to change the price of diesel is an option. I’d prefer the first framing but will settle for the second. Better, anyway, than jumping on the hate train.
