2020 US General Election Thread VIII: Cs, Ds, and Es

[New Visayan Islands]

It's punishment.

You want to punish people for having sex whether you want to admit it or not.

You don't know me, so don't accuse me of such bullshit, cunt.

Take *** 7 days off for flaming. ***

Different people have different values. Not everyone is a leftist

Some people (generally known as “communists”) value genociding their opposition and killing people for not following in step with their plans

Take *** 3 days off for trolling. *** Note that this is for you the player, not you the nation.

Let's all keep cool heads in here, shall we?

Thanks!

I think Amy Barrett would be a great replacement, she is a lifelong conservative who will uphold moral values, while stopping the left from progressing

Her religious and political beliefs were the inspiration for The Handmaid's Tale.

Trumps drug program has collapsed. It was undone when he expected the pharmis to hand out 100$ Trump cards to Senior citizens. If it’s against the rules to vote buy; have some one else do it. They balked at the idea due to the election ploy ramifications.

Nah. Borderline religious wackjob and is probably anti-lgbt.

The pewpewbangbang crowd will love her though.

She was part of the inspiration for The Handmaids Tale

We don't need to concern ourselves with the most hysterical work of fiction ever made. Liberals have a weirdly limited taste in literature.

I mentioned that earlier hence why she is so scary.

Nah, Gilead sounds like exactly like something a lot of the Reps currently in government would love to try.

Wellllll? Maybe the group she belongs to...I mean seriously Loyalty Oaths? Atwood used several events for inspiration.

Gilead seems like something a number of Republicans would gladly like to make reality.

Trump grandstanding failed?
Shocker.

Considering she’s a Catholic and the Republic of Gilead outlawed Catholicism I don’t think that would work

Well, they're holding a massive vigil at the SC tonight.

And meanwhile, protests are happening around McConnell's house, looks like it might get ugly too.

Doesn’t mean they can’t take inspiration from it.

McConnell could care less.

Again, this is hysteria.

You don't understand anything about Catholicism, then.

Nah, sounds pretty reasonable.

"This is hysteria," says the person currently arguing against the fact that other people have read a book.

Yeah. This is the guy that skipped on a hearing with 9/11 first responders and their advocates then criticized their dissatisfaction after impeding a relief bill. He's absolutely devoid of empathy and morals.

[Northern Davincia]

Again, this is hysteria.

"This is hysteria," says the person currently arguing against the fact that other people have read a book.

It is hysterical to argue that the book in question has any remote chance of becoming reality.

No, the real life Puritans she based it off are explicitly anti-Catholic. You’re limping all Christians together into one group.

Additionally, it is absurd that every non-Puritan in the US, and even on the Supreme Court, would be helpless from a total transformation of the country (somehow enabled by one individual who is a textualist for the Constitution).

"This is hysteria," says the person currently arguing against the fact that other people have read a book.

It is hysterical to argue that the book in question has any remote chance of becoming reality.

No, it could totally be reality.

Most dystopian works are based off of fact. (Like how 1984 was based off of very real censorship and control practices commonplace in the USSR and Nazi Germany)

Except the Handmaid's Tale was based on a cultural sect that hasn't existed on a large scale for centuries. You can't rip out the past and slap it onto the present like that.
Orwell, meanwhile, was inspired by more recent dictatorships of his day. These were more familiar and relevant to the wider context of history.

The GOP would be satisfied with pre-Roe v. Wade abortion laws across the states. They're not going to push beyond that because there would be no way to popularize it.
