    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    Didn't follow current US politics enough to be halfway knowledgeable, but intrigued by Duke comment's implied notion that Trump > Warren.
    Midnight Run (1988) - 9
    The Smiling Lieutenant (1931) - 8.5
    The Adventures of Robinhood (1938) - 8
    Sisters (1973) - 6.5
    Shin Godzilla (2016) - 7.5

    They are both awful. I'm not going to rank them on a scale of 'despicable', but combined they are the least appealing candidates I've ever seen since I've been alive.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but I haven't heard anything about Elizabeth Warren sexually assaulting twenty women.

    If Trump is re-elected, the US should just pack it up and call it a day (or maybe just the Democratic Party - if they can't motivate their base to get rid of a complete and utter moron, then they'll never beat a Republican ever again). If an absolute incompetent shithead like Trump can still get re-elected, imagine what a halfway competent shithead would get away with.

    Except the Dems literally have one of the most popular politicians in the country running for the nomination right now.

    Well, can't argue with that. Good to see political discourse in your country is so nuanced and thoughtful. You get the President you deserve, I guess.
    I know you and I have had our differences but I would never post anything like that. Yeah I'm going to report his post.

    This is a bad thread and I think it'll only get worse over the coming election year.

    Unless we develop some hive mind shit, all this thread will do is invite resentment between people who'd get along fine otherwise.

    Dubya served 2 terms. This country is trash.

    I decided to go with Bernie again. I like Warren ok too. I don't care for the rest of the field.

    This is gross, and I'm irritated you would shift my delight at the "ok boomer" fuck-off to now I cant even enjoy that anymore without thinking of this.
    Ok boomer is aimed at a generation that is largely responsible for why things are so fucked right now. Btw I refuse to let Gen X off the hook for their jaded "Who cares?" silly response to politics, too. And my generation could take more of a lead in fixing shit, also.

    I never took it as anything racist, to be fair. Just another example of shitty political “discourse”. I was trying to see what principles he was upholding in criticizing liberals for criticizing Trump on Syria, and it turns out - funnily enough - he had none.

    Not to split hairs, but "who cares" was an epitaph assigned to Gen-Xers from the babyboomers when we weren't responding to their attempts to sell us stupid shit like OK Soda and Extreme Nachos.

    Damn right. Only - these nachos will actually be extreme, and not just a wad of blue colored chips packaged in a box with lightning bolts on it.

    I was on the fence, but this post convinced me to vote Trump all the way. I also hope Joker wins Best Picture.

    Bernie? He can't even win his own primary, so I don't know what you are talking about. Trump would win in a landslide against Bernie.
