And They're Off! The Democratic Candidates for 2020

[drogulus]

By all means, go ahead talking to Poju! You deserve each other. 

     I wasn't specifically referring to him. I'll leave it there.

[drogulus]

     How do you talk to people you want to talk to while fulfilling your sacred obligation to let them know you hate talking to them? I'm damned if I know, so fortunately I don't.

[Florestan]

     How do you talk to people you want to talk to while fulfilling your sacred obligation to let them know you hate talking to them?

If you really want to talk to people you really hate talking to then you'd better call a shrink.

[drogulus]

If you really want to talk to people you really hate talking to then you'd better call a shrink.

     So you really don't hate talking to people here, it's just a kind of "hate theater". See, I may have indulged in this on occasions while disapproving of it in general. At the moment I'm working on a treatise that says it's all your fault. I'll let you know how it comes out.

[Florestan]

     So you really don't hate talking to people here

I don't hate talking to you, that's for sure.

[drogulus]

I don't hate talking to you, that's for sure.

     I find it hard to take the attitude you have towards the Finnish Flash. I don't see it as helpful.

Looks like Kyle needs a proofreader...

[drogulus]

     Bernie took away Biden's toys?

[Madiel]

Biden will most likely win the nomination.

He will most likely lose to Trump, unless the coronavirus upsets the American economy enough to make people dislike Trump (because let's face it his appalling behaviour isn't going to achieve the necessary levels of dislike).

See you in a few months probably.

There's no denying that uncertainty is high (apart from Bernie being GRRRREAT!, I mean)

I must hope for the best, of course.

None of us can help him.

[Marc]

     I'm glad I got a functional definition of damnation at last. The lack of one was making me batty.

    I like talking to a variety of people who are less than optimally even-tempered. It may be a flaw in my genetic makeup.

Lol. Yeah.
My genetics are flawed too, I'm afraid.
Therefore I always switch to Bach to make me well-tempered again.

[Christabel]

I feel sorry for Joe Biden;  he has obvious cognitive deficits.  He said 150 million Americans had been killed by guns.  Presumbly he's talking about the period from Plymouth Rock!!  But he seems like a rather decent man;  and he's going to be devoured by a crocodile.  Dreadful.  Bloomberg;  the only billionaire to pay money so that he can be scalped by a fake Indian.  Bernie Sanders - lover of the USSR and communism and anathema to American capitalism.

Get some decent candidates, make healthcare at least reasonably affordable for your people and keep them in work.  That means closing the southern border.  If not, adios.

Bernie Sanders - lover of the USSR and communism and anathema to American capitalism.

Are you a supporter of the government of Italy or Italian mafia if you visit Venice as a tourist?

No, Bernie Sanders isn't a lover of communism and he is not against capitalism, just crony capitalism where the society only works for the rich. That's why he talks about the Nordic countries, examples of countries where socialism and capitalism has been mixed very successfully.

[Karl Henning]

None of us can help him.

Truly not.

[Madiel]

Maybe someone can help Christabel then. 

[drogulus]

None of us can help him.

     It doesn't occur to me that people need your kind of help as much as you need to provide it.

     

[drogulus]

Maybe someone can help Christabel then. 

     Some arguments are all about the conclusions and not much about any process that could arrive at them.

     Hey, did you notice how people on the political left use the word "dynamic" as a noun and those on the right don't? It occurred to me as soon as I noticed it that processes of social transformation were a heavier lift for those who didn't want them than for those who were more receptive, and this would leave evidence in word choice.
