Fox, did you read the thing John posted a couple pages ago?
https://pando.com/2016/01/08/gary-johns ... -politics/

Idk if you'll read it or get turned off by the headline, but it's worth checking out.

I read a little bit, but got busy. I'll probably read it later today when I have more time to sit down and read through the whole thing.
FWIW, I don't really like or particularly support Johnson, I was hoping for Rand early on.
I think Johnson's riding on the coattails of Bernie by acting like a pothead and is doing the whole, "say the right thing and not much else" thing that's been prevalent this election.
Rather, I support voting for a third party and he's the strongest third party candidate right now, so that's why I've voiced a little support for him.
Honestly, this whole election is filled with lesser evils, so I'm getting to a point where I don't really give a shit anymore.

Sen’s insight was that a plurality of ideals isn’t really a problem because we don't need ideals at all. Do you really need a theory of justice to know that the boot on your neck is unjust? You don’t. As long as we can reliably identify injustice, we can focus on fixing injustices that enough of us agree to be urgent and obvious, and simply make things progressively better. That's all we need.

Read like the first sentence of that article and thought "Fuck this shit."
Hilary won't round people up into camps, she'll just drone strike them before they can emigrate, so it's way better, y'all.

Yeah I didn't click (that site needs renamed, c&d for dishonoring a legendary audio company) nor am I surprised at your conclusion, psyvam. Quoted blurb is what I expect from (voxdotcom) and appears to be a poorly conceived pipe dream; advocating for a collectivist anarcho-marxist intelligentsia to act as agents of vigilante *justice* but only when a democratic majority agrees on what to prioritize and target.
Somehow that's the only cure to *make the world better* for the tribe... and one which (predictably) wont implode due to in-fighting on the day of its inception when everyone fancies themselves as chief with correct priorities

This happened to me on TGP:

"Your post in the thread Strictly FUZZ was deleted. Reason: No politics!!!!"

I think I made a casual (read: cultural) reference to Trump.

Look, I'd love to make 'merka fuzzy again Chank but there is a reason all the dirt on both my boards are made in Japan, and no anime doesn't come into it
