Democrat Party Melting Down Over Fundamental Question: Stay Woke and Alienate 90% of Independents, Or Break from Wokeness and Alienate the Democrat Base of Wealthy White College Students, Guilty Wealthy White Suburban Professionals, and Minority Activists
Begun, the Woke Wars have.
James Carville laid the blame for the the election squarely on the Woke left, stating What went wrong is this stupid wokeness" and "some people need to go to a woke detox center or something," He decried taking down statues of Lincoln and "changing dictionaries [instead of] changing laws" and "faculty type people that sit around moaning about, I don't know what." Well this was all too much for Little Miss Thing to bear. Alexandria Donkey-Chompers goes full "ageist," attacking James Carville as "older" for using term "wokeism.Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., took to Twitter to slam Democratic strategist James Carville, and others, for blaming the party's "wokeness" for Terry McAuliffe's gubernatorial loss in Virginia, claiming that the terms is "almost exclusively used by older people." "How can news outlets even attribute words to me I didn’t say," Ocasio-Cortez questioned in a tweet, linking to a report and another tweet from ABC 13 News in Virginia which quoted the New York congresswoman as saying McAuliffe lost the race because he was not "woke" enough. "I said there are limits to trying to mobilize a campaign with a 100% moderate strategy without mobilizing the base," Ocasio-Cortez added. "Said nothing [about] 'wokeness' which is a term almost exclusively used by older people these days btw". Ocasio-Cortez, a member of far-left progressive Squad, also claimed that the word "woke" is used primarily by "Carville and Fox News pundits." She said statements targeting younger generations as "woke" by older Democrats will hurt "youth turnout" at the polls.Gen Z did vote Democrat. Millennials split down the middle. Gen X and Boomers voted Republican. Carville had also spoken about that -- he said that it was woke politics that were "suppressing" the Democrats' vote.
CNN's Ashley Allison of course is all-in on neoliberal woke bullshit on Don LeMon's nightly racist religious sermon.
CNN political contributor Ashley Allison called veteran Democratic strategist James Carville's advice to steer aware from the woke agenda "highly problematic." Allison, a Biden-Harris 2020 consultant, told CNN host Don Lemon on Thursday that Democrats should stop using words like woke and "start telling the truth." "In Virginia, yes, Democrats didn't win but it wasn't because Terry McAuliffe was a, quote, unquote, 'woke candidate,'" Allison said. "I even don't like that term, because what does that mean? A candidate that stands up for poor people, black people, people who don't think that people should be killed at the hands of police? So, I don't think James Carville is right on that, and it's highly problematic if that's what the Democrats are going to follow." "We should stop using words like wokeism, we should stop using terms like critical race theory to describe things that are not actually that," she said. "We should start telling the truth. And what happened in Virginia is that Youngkin and the Republicans launched a campaign with race baiting language. That is the truth."
From Andrew Sullivan's substack column about the Virginia results: a Youngkin campaign strategist offered this assessment to "journalist" Ryan Lizza.
+100. So what will the Democrats do? Double down or moderate? They'll double down. I don't just say this because they are crazy. I don't just say this because all of the energy -- and all of the money -- in the party is with the lunatic left. I don't just say it because the base of the base -- the well-educated but not-very-smart white progressives who want vengeance against a world that doesn't recognize their dubious genius, the aging Chardonnay Antifa well-heeled suburban Karen Extremists, the teachers union leftists, the Deep State bureaucrats, the minority grievance extremists/racial separatists, the trans extremists -- own the party now. I don't just say it because their most important constituency of all -- the leftwing media -- is thoroughly mentally ill and full of hatred and grievance. All those things are 100% true. But more than that, it has been the pattern for a long, long time that no matter how low a president's poll numbers drop, a president clings to his base and makes very few if any concessions to the middle. Trump didn't really make any shifts to the middle or the left. He did pursue criminal justice "reform" -- but that wasn't a concession, he planned that from the start. Obama governed as if he was President of Twitter. Bush was always a moderate RINO, though we didn't really appreciate that at the time, but didn't make any major concessions to the left, especially not on the issue that was actually dragging him down, the war in Iraq. He did propose and pass Medicaid prescription drug coverage, but that didn't seem like it was in reaction to falling popularity. He wasn't really losing popularity too much in 2004. That just seemed like more Rovian scheming. Clinton stuck mostly with his leftwing base. He did make some moves intended to placate the moderates, but it was all symbolic stuff like supporting "school uniforms" in state schools, which the president has no power over. So he papered over his very liberal policy agenda with meaningless gestures to the cultural center like that. So, no, neither Biden nor the Democrats will learn anything from this. The rule of politics now is Dance With the One That Brought Ya. The only thing that can change this is a truly epochal wipeout. Which I certainly hope we deliver unto them. I don't want to support the GOP, but I sure don't want to reward the socialist fascists. Update: Someone laughed at me saying "dance with the one that brought ya" in connection with the GOP, which does nothing but spit in our faces. True-- and that was dumb to say. Re-conforming my words to fit actual reality, I'd say the GOP sticks with what they take to be their base, which is Suburban Respectability-Craving Well-to-Dos and Large Corporate Interests. Those they stick with through thick-and-thin. They'll even deliberately throw presidential elections to appease them.
The Democrats are radicalizing, and they're reacting to their base of their party and it is their base of the base. And because they live on Twitter and on the lightly watched cable news shows at night, they're believing their own press releases and they're putting themselves in their own bunker. And they will not be able to get out of it.

I'd say it's less time for a third party, and more time for a new second party. A true third party (at least one that we would support) would spend 40 years in the desert, during which time the Left would finish everything they have planned. A better strategy is to destroy the Republican party completely, and replace it. A lot of them would go Dem at first, a few would stick around. At least you'd have newly-drawn battle lines and a clean slate to start from. I sometimes think this is what Trump had in mind, but couldn't pull it off.

But yet, they double down every time, the next announcement more egregious than the last. Not a peep from the Republicans, no exercise of any potential action they could take. They may put forward a bill with no hopes of passage, but that's it.
And just who do they think will prosecute?
But unfortunately, that's what we're dealing with on our side. We don't have time to wait for an election. The damage will be done and it will be irreversible with no desire to reverse it from our legislators.

True-- and that was dumb to say.
Re-conforming my words to fit actual reality, I'd say the GOP sticks with what they take to be their base, which is Suburban Respectability-Craving Well-to-Dos and Large Corporate Interests. Those they stick with through thick-and-thin.
They'll even deliberately throw presidential elections to appease them.

This times 1,000.
I keep hearing this from people in DC. Most Democrats believe they have a once on a generation chance to ram through their Marxist agenda. They haven't given any indication they will stop on any front. Brandon doesn't care about his popularity, nor does the party. They truly believe people will come back to them after they've rammed all this garbage through- or it won't matter because they "won". Whatever that means.
Most Republicans dont understand Democrats are fanatics at war with most of the country. They will stop at nothing to stomp the people.

And a third party just rewards the Socialists. There are many, many people on our side that are conservatives and have decided to run for office. Anywhere from school board to Congress. It's all about getting the right people in and to the destroy the left and remake the right.

That would be a hell of a thing. I'm not saying that means you shouldn't vote. But this system, left alone, cannot function outside trust. And we are outside trust. Not voting cannot fix the system, and just voting cannot fix the system. Perhaps being involved to a much greater degree than the public ever has in the details and monitoring of voting and electioneering can affect a change. That would require a public that believes that a successful society is arrived at through honesty, not just cheering the team the media picked.

I don't, either, but the GOP is already admitting they're not doing anything because they expect the base will be so sick of Stinkfinger and his junta, that we will crawl over broken glass to vote for them because we have no other choice.
Positions? Pushback? Populism? Not from these feckless cowards in DC.

I disagree with you as far as GOP presidents go. They *always* make concessions to the middle. Trump was the exception. But, I think even he would have been willing to make at least some deals, if the Dems hadn't gone with full out war against him. Schumer in particular was in a great position to win concessions with Trump and a McConnell led GOP in the Senate. But, the left went with the strategy of "Trump isn't normal", so 100% war.

A lot of this is probably old timey Dems who never bothered switching but voted Republican. But still, that is a crazy shift in 13 years.

My understanding is (for example) you win $300,000. The lawyer takes his 1/3rd so you net $200,000. But you owe taxes on the full $300,000.
There may be some instances where this could differ. Perhaps if it's a payout from an insurance company, but I'm not sure.

Naturally, it's not abundantly clear. From the IRS website -
The general rule of taxability for amounts received from settlement of lawsuits and other legal remedies is Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 61 that states all income is taxable from whatever source derived, unless exempted by another section of the code. IRC Section 104 provides an exclusion from taxable income with respect to lawsuits, settlements and awards. However, the facts and circumstances surrounding each settlement payment must be considered to determine the purpose for which the money was received because not all amounts received from a settlement are exempt from taxes. The key question to ask is: "What was the settlement (and its corresponding payments) intended to replace?"

Florida is the land of the living dead. So, so many old people have moved to Flor-i-duh. I would wager that if their voter roles were purged of people who were actually dead, and people who are double registered in Flor-i-duh and in New Jersey and New York. the margin of Rethuglicans would be even greater.

Guess what everyone? A new report says we have 11 years to solve gloBULL warming before it's too late.
Which is weird because like 15 years ago, we were also told that we have 10 years.
Also interesting how it's not 10 years or 15 years. No it's exactly 11. Because we can pinpoint this shit with that much precision on what will happen to a planet that has been heating and cooling for 4.5 billion years.

The Cartels/coyotes get the money. It's a kickback to them, and then the money comes back to the Democruds as payoff money to keep the border open.
It's the same scam as the foreign aid money going to Ukraine, and coming to Democruds back through people like Hunter Biden.
I would wager that the Democruds have been getting money from the Cartels for years. And probably some Rethuglicans have been getting some of that Cartel payoff money too.

That means either the left is stupid and doesn't get that it is disliked, or that the leaders of the left believe they don't have to win fair and free elections at the national level anymore.

National Guardsmen get lost in a Loosiana swamp and piss off some Rednecks. Hilarity ensues.

There may be some instances where this could differ. Perhaps if it's a payout from an insurance company, but I'm not sure.

It depends on what the settlement is compensating for. If it is lost income or something else that is normally taxed, then it's taxed. Pain and suffering isn't taxable.
And yes, you're taxed on the whole amount received, not the amount less attorney fees.

They are out to destroy the country. How DARE we elect Trump--twice! For that, they will unleash hell on us and if it takes them down too, well, they're counting on the GOP being too "nice" to really punish them.
They're in their endgame now.
Posted by: BeckoningChasm at November 08, 2021 07:29 PM (OU+8W)
They're in their endgame alright - but they got too eager, too full of themselves, and they didn't wait until they actually got everything under control before they jumped into what they really wanted to do.
That's why I'm suddenly feeling so optimistic these days - I knew, after they had taken over, that we had no chance to come back UNTIL they started to make some huge mistakes. And suddenly, they're making them! Everywhere, every day. They can't keep from doing it. As Ace pointed out up top, they're about to go to war with themselves, and that is REALLY going to be the cherry on top! I am loving it!

except...the moderate middle IS nearly everyone's "base", Repub and Dem both.
HER base though? not the middle at all...her base is a verrry radical left departure from ANYONE else's politics, in any other district, region even within NY. That is why her "Squad" is only 6, even the "Progressive Caucus" is only 40, and she is wayyy to the left of where they had been before she was "Selected" by the machine to replace the guy she replaced, #3 in House leadership, Chair of the Democratic Caucus, Chairman of the local Dem Party...that had mentioned he might challenge Pelosi for the Chair/Gavel. The long knives came out and an obscure nobody was "Installed" as his replacement. The "Base" voted for who they were TOLD to, and only won because there was NO real repub challenge.

You have to go to the end - Montauk - to find family beaches on Long Island in the summer that aren't weird or exclusive. Yes, its a drive for folks from Queens, and the hotels are essentially end dives from the 60's and 70's...and the rich liberals from the South and East Hamptons have begun their usual locust invasion...but still, in the Northeast, it is the last of the middle class beach scene that you'll still see electrician, plumber, fire fighters and police families playing on the beach. See it while it lasts.

After the Great Political Upchuck of 1994, Bill Clinton realized that the Far Left Way wasn't going to work. He sacked the most leftist of his advisers (does anybody remember the radical Ms. Achtenberg, Mr. Cisneros, Ms. Elders, Mr. Reich, Ms. Shalala? All of whom had to leave under clouds of scandal and disgust) and Billy Jeff put in pragmatic types as replacements. In the end, although loathsome to many Conservatives on a personal level, Billy Jeff did a couple of downright Conservative acts: (1) welfare curtailment and reform, and (2) cutting the capital gains tax rates in half, from 28/20% short/long to 15/10%, fueling the investment boom of the mid to late 1990s.
But Bill Clinton was not all about the Leftist Marxism. Bill Clinton was all about - Bill Clinton.

Why not call them fascists? Communist has lost its sting, and they are far more akin to true fascism, which in its purist form is an evil union between big corporations and government to dominate society. That describes their current trajectory best. And it has the added deliciousness of getting under their skin.

Which is a bit dull; especially for college kids who want to be special and different snowflakes of awesome heroic specialness.
Inventing some new crazy and demanding all others obey your new crazy or be evil?
That shows you're heroic for being one of the few to care about Trans-Migratory Climate Racial Hand Blower Equality for Native Americans... or whatever.
So clearly that's cool and must be supported.
Or maybe opposed?
But you must do so with your entire heart, once we puzzle out what it means.
