OR… Populists easily win votes by promising to do things they can’t (lower prices) or by promising that great things will come from things they can do (deport immigrants, raise tariffs). Voters are now waking up for the second time that Trump can’t deliver what he promised, so they are willing to look at alternatives.

The left could also nominate populists who promise everyone two acres and a mule, but is that really what’s good for the country? There are plenty of leftist populists elected in South America, yet those countries stay poor and crime-ridden. Some here use US interference / the World Bank / globalists as a boogeyman excuse, but the truth is that populists are good at getting elected and then fucking everything up.

Is this not just a rule 5 violation? Seems like you already have a bunch of ideas and just want to whip up political comments.

I don’t know what it’s called, but it’s precious.

It’s literally the propaganda arm of a fringe political party. Like, the party runs it. Not just aligns with it to make money like Fox and conservatives.

All of their articles are opinion pieces. But they are open to discussion with other viewpoints, so long as those viewpoints align closely with their own:

The partisanship of the World Socialist Web Site by no means excludes objectivity or honest debate. We welcome a broad exchange of viewpoints with workers, students and intellectuals who are seeking an alternative to bourgeois politics and capitalist economics.

North Korea deserves it, but they won’t win it. North Koreans will all vote for the USA, while Americans will be split on voting for themselves and other countries.

That’s exactly what I was curious about. There’d be no reason to do toxicology for someone coming in with these sorts of symptoms. Foul play is often the last thing people suspect.

Thanks. Another commenter added some context.

If you visit Eastern Europe, you’ll find a lot of museums which reflect on the double disaster of Nazi occupation for years followed by Communist occupation for decades.

There are museums for African American history which have exhibits about slavery and its victims, if you’re interested. https://www.wonderfulmuseums.com/museum/slavery-museums-in-the-united-states/

Because capitalism is the normal order of things going back for millennia.

Please don’t confuse this as victim blaming. It is not. I am curious about what the victim thought was going on with her health when she was being frequently sedated. Did she think she became a hard sleeper? Did she have side effects that she might have even seen a doctor for, who spent futile time testing for natural causes?

Is this something that might one day be in the back of mind for nurses and doctors that someone is being secretly drugged, like Munchausen by Proxy?

Only try to realize the truth: there is no shower.

Quick, look around for a whale and a bowl of petunias.

You’re missing the sarcasm.

They are free to vote for any candidate in the Party so long as that person is approved.

I mean, you’re not wrong. They are full of brave, anonymous invective.

Personal prejudices? I explained why in my comment. Name recognition.

You called them “low information.” If your comment wasn’t prejudiced, then neither was mine.

Too many remakes and reboots. Write something novel, Faulkner.

I’m confused by your comment. Are you saying two thirds didn’t want this specifically, or are you counting non-voters as opponents of Trump?

My guess is that most of the non-voters, if forced to vote, would have voted Trump. He had name recognition. These types of citizens couldn’t name the current Vice President any more than they could find the USA on a world map.

It’s unfortunately a necessary step to protect Mao’s People’s Revolution. At least they are free from the evils of capitalism in Hong Kong now, and part of a shining example to the rest of the world what happens when the workers rise up and throw off their chains.
