Or, you know, this person could have just read the fucking article (or even just skimmed the first quarter of it) before making a comment making it clear they didn’t, then getting their back up when they get called out?

This take that is basically saying men are just animals that can’t control their urges, brought to you by a person who 100% replies to any statement about men being shitty with “nOT AlL mEn”.

So what you’re advocating is figuratively sucking the candidates dick no matter what terrible thing he does (aka blind worship), like republicans do?

And that would make you different than them, how exactly?

Dem voters aren’t there yet…but right now this shit won’t work on Dem voters.

Lol, it’s working perfectly well already, in case you haven’t been paying attention, those still blindly loyal to Biden, as well as the “blue no matter who” crowd are proving you wrong every day.

The thing is, republicans have been conditioned to accept

Until people like you confront the fact that we have ALL been conditioned to accept this farce, and that those on both teams serve the same people (billionaires) and use the same tactics (empty promises, flat out lies, gaslighting, manipulating, even love bombing) they just appeal to different sensibilities so your bias tells you the one that appeals to you isn’t that bad actually, we will never break free from this circus.

“We’re on the right track,”

They, the owning class whose mountain of wealth just keeps growing at our expense, and their short sighted mouthpieces, are. That’s all that matters to those who value money more than people.

Biden is reacting to all of this in exactly the same way anyone else in his shoes would.

He’s starting to react exactly the same way trump and many others on the right do, and is gaslighting his voters the same way, too (like by dismissing the perfectly valid concerns as “drama”)…

That is to say it may very well be down to age, but it’s also just the textbook behaviour of politicians who are there to serve themselves, the filthy rich establishment, and the status quo they all need to survive.

14th Amendment

It’s the 13th, but otherwise accurate.

You said

I’m not really sure what difference it makes what type of facility she’s put into. My understanding is that you don’t get to interact with anybody in solitary, regardless of gender.

You also said

I might not be understanding something

But no mention of timeline. 🤔

Though even if you had mentioned the timeline, the quote I pasted from the top of the article is pretty clear about that.

But no, you were clearly “misunderstanding” why it matters if she’s in male-prison solitary or female-prison solitary, while deliberately ignoring the key fact that she shouldn’t be in solitary in the first place. Or you simply just didn’t read the article.

Either way, putting your hand up to say “my bad” isn’t hard to do, and it makes you look a lot less like you’re here in bad faith than doubling down like you are now does.

Maybe actually read the article? This is right at the top:

When Kim realized she was being removed, she asked to speak with her lawyer and see paperwork authorizing the transfer, which was denied. Kim then refused to walk as commanded, at which point she was allegedly thrown to the ground by guards, who tied her ankles and wrists together and put her in the back of an SUV, she said. At Monroe Correctional Complex, Kim was put into solitary confinement, for allegedly “refusing transfer.”

She wouldn’t be in solitary confinement if they hadn’t moved her.
