Nice try, bud.
At this point in my life, I’m pretty immune to the MAGA tactic of deflection.
The fact is, you clearly don’t care about assault weapons bans because you don’t mention them. I happen to agree with you that with an absence of political will, lasting change is impossible.
I don’t why folks should read. Maybe to educate themselves? Wild thought, though some folks prefer to be spoon-fed information that ‘tastes good’ to them.
I think it’s safe to say a person who avoids available information is being willfully ignorant.
I thought by the way you called out Platner that you would be a big Ptolemy of bank g assault weapons. Apparently you’re concerned about TikTok and plastic straws, instead.
One post about banning assault weapons?
It appears you are not working to build political will on this issue.
Constellis. Just to be factual, right?
As to firearm bans, I am not in line with Platner on this.
You should read ALL of Platner's online posts, not just the six or so that get all the attention. Nothing fascist in any of them.
My own words of wisdom.
As long as the wealth gap remains this extreme, or worsens, there will be no change except for the names of the billionaires committing crimes.
It's almost like people change over time.
Of course, you will come back with a variation of "by x age, people should know better". It's a sad statement that you believe evidence can't change outlooks.
I'm a facts kind of guy, myself.
Due to Carlson's long history of grifting, any belief that he has changed will take time and action.
🤣
So you’re saying Mills is a Nazi? I’m confused. If she shares the same political beliefs as Platner…
So you’ve come around and now support Platner’s platform!
Excellent.
That didn’t take as many posts as I thought it would.
Another wayward soul on the brink of supporting actual fascist policies pulled back to see the benefits of the Platner platform! My job here is done.
✅
It’s ok.
I won’t demand you talk policy.
It seems like a sore subject for you. I can see why, since there aren’t many folks on BS who would oppose my list.
It can be our secret.
That’s a no on policy.
Not making any claims, but your opposition to my list kinda puts you on the (maga) side of things. I haven’t heard good things about those folks.
I won’t tell anyone, though.
We’re talking policy. You brought it up.
You don’t actually want to talk policy?
It’s called a policy platform, actually.
And I’m voting for LaFlamme, Platner, and Costello, all of whom have a similar platform. I haven’t decided on the order, though.
Btw, which things on my list don’t you like? It seems like all of them from your response.
You don’t like my list?
Which ones, or all?
-No more funding to Israel for weapons
-Medicare for all
-opposition to ICE
-support for environmental protections
-increase taxes for billionaires/ ending tax loopholes
-equality for all
-union support
-support for tribal sovereignty
-ban hedge funds from buying real estate
-end citizens united
What?
Are you trying to say Mills is the only Dem in the PRIMARY who has won a statewide election?
We actually have statewide elections quite often, so Mills isn’t the only candidate to do so in a very long time.
Regrettably, Collins is another candidate who has recently won a statewide election
Mills supporters blatantly posting far right articles from The Maine Wire.
Wild.
It literally took just as much time for you to post a question will false information than it would have taken to get an answer.
No. Just… check.
Mills is not running ads.
Elizabeth Warren isn’t on any Maine ballot I’ve seen. Neither is Bernie Sanders.
If they were, I would not support them in a primary.
Seriously?
Collins does not meet with constituents other than carefully orchestrated campaign stops. That isn’t access.
Her staff just read a script, agree to “pass along the concern” and Collins goes on to ignore those concerns.
Being polite on the phone isn’t help or access.
You’re not from Maine, right?
JB boards about 12% of their students, who are international. For students not receiving state funds, there are scholarships available.
It’s really embarrassing how confident folks are when they clearly don’t know what they’re talking about.
Collins and her office were impossible to get access to or help from.
I made the time to find facts before simply defending or objecting to the Jay data center based on the position of a particular political candidate.
I’ll never understand how people can advocate for things they don’t know about.
How very… Mike Johnson of Mils.
How many employees would work at this data center?
