This is so toxic that I almost feel like @BarackObama should speak out (I know he can’t but it’s that bad).These women owe their careers to trailblazers like @HillaryClinton who also defended them specifically against Trump’s insults.I still can’t believe how awful this is. https://t.co/KUpKMNUSRt— Dan (@DaytimeDan) February 1, 2020

Did Fred's factual clarification warrant such snark or are you just angling for a duel again?
Seriously, though, are you alright, comrade? Because you've spent the past few days needlessly antagonizing your fellow ILXors like a 4chan-tier troll. You can do better than that.

Pom - gyac said white feminists not Neera and I am not the only one who said anything about how Fred posted just now. Nothing more to it.
― xyzzzz__, Saturday, 1 February 2020 10:27 (four years ago) link
Not going to bother to waste any more of Saturday morning but xyzzzzz only posted a link and then I responded to this. Not sure why either action attracted such antagonism besides someone with a grudge and not enough to do offline. Personally I’d prefer to hear more about what Hoos has been doing.
― steer karma (gyac), Saturday, 1 February 2020 10:35 (four years ago) link
Correcting the wrong thing you wrote is not antagonistic

Those are not the actions that attracted antagonism.

This thread could easily have discussed what a horrible white feminist Neera Tanden is for hours without anyone noticing. At least we dodged that bullet.
― Frederik B, Saturday, 1 February 2020 10:48 (four years ago) link
"white feminist" refers to the dude tweeting maybe?
nothing else counts as major antagonism given the normal behaviour of most of ye involved, but perhaps ye feel yerselves that ye should be behaving better in other country's pol threads? /irish mammy/

xp yep, it absolutely does and there were two posts about the guy and one about Neera Tanden. ofc my own clarification on this point wasn’t enough.

Whats the potential VP situation currently? Nina Turner in interview last week definitely suggesting would love to see it. Barbara Lee and even Tulsi as suggestions, not sure who else?

gyac i put a question mark in my own guess because tbh it wasnt rly that clear to me either
but like this is everybody jumping at everybody and lj otm re hairtrigger cmon lets do an aul lang syne
― BSC Joan Baez (darraghmac), Saturday, 1 February 2020 10:59 (four years ago) link
Another factual clarification for Pom - I have been antagonistic toward lj and Fred for a lot longer than just "the past few days"
― xyzzzz__, Saturday, 1 February 2020 11:00 (four years ago) link
Gyac wrote 'feminists' plural, and I can't believe how sad this thread has become, lol

tbf it's the albums poll next week, no holds barred

lol that is indeed correct, I was just trying to be diplomatic. It has slightly intensified of late, though, or so it seems to me.

would love to see Warren in the dual role of VP and at Treasury. a formidable ticket for folks squeamish about Sanders (who aren’t just cynical third way shitbags), and Treasury would play to her policy-centric strengths. also attractive: a nice fuck you to The Norms.
― A-B-C. A-Always, B-Be, C-Chooglin (will), Saturday, 1 February 2020 11:23 (four years ago) link
obv contingent on if this is “allowed” and if Warren would even be interested
― A-B-C. A-Always, B-Be, C-Chooglin (will), Saturday, 1 February 2020 11:26 (four years ago) link
I don't think he'll go with Warren for VP (not because of recent events I didn't think he would have done anyway), there's a number of different directions he could go in though, think a lot depends on his team (who seem not to be leaning in that direction)

Well the tracks poll was done across four days. I don't do albums so I won't be in that thread, normal service will resume which means I'll be fucking with Fred now and then, like many posters across ilx do.

So now that Bernie Sanders is the frontrunner, the DNC is changing its debate rules mid-primary, eliminating the small donor threshold to let Bloomberg buy his way onto the stage.Bloomberg’s surrogates are openly admitting he’s running as a Sanders spoiler.Here we go again. https://t.co/WqGTuQijKo— Emma Vigeland (@EmmaVigeland) January 31, 2020

No one else is targeting, bullying and harassing other posters all over the board the way xyzzzz is, and if he keeps it up he should be perma-banned.
