  1. It means that populist progressive ideas are popular.s Unless you can point to a progressive losing a general election, it’s just baseless speculation they’d do worse than Kamala.
  2. Nope. Dan Osborn outperformed the democrats. Progressive ballot measures passed where Trump won.
  3. Hillary and Kamala were centrist, how did that work out
  4. I always wonder in these cases why they don’t dye their hair and flee to mexico
  5. I’m surprised by how uniform people celebrating his death is. I would expect it from the far left and far right, but it seems like almost everyone. Even conservatives. This is why I think a populist left candidate could be so effective if they got into a general election, even the right is sick of the elite despite the fact they don’t make the connection to the ones they like. Another issue is, if the elite really feel like the rabble are a threat to them, we will transform into a police state. They were already able to normalize the patriot act and nsa spying, imagine what they’ll do if they think they personally are at risk.
  6. That’s not true at all. You can have sex dreams of people you aren’t attracted to. Straight people can have gay sex dreams and vice versa for example.

  8. Her analysis makes more sense. That is more about a narrative fulfillment usually centered around one person at a time. She dreams of multiple figures who she isn’t normally attracted to. She probably harbors disdain for them partially as a projection of her repression of masculine sides like she said, and the dream is expressing some process to understand this.
  9. Be careful, writing down dreams and replaying them mentally can make them stick in your memory and make similar dreams more vivid in the future. Your analysis makes sense to me. I think dreams are a side effect of your subconscious reordering things. My dreams are fuzzy and confusing now and I barely remember them, but I used to have frustrating or disturbing ones so I try to avoid analyzing them to make it harder to remember them.
  10. Not really a good video. It gets a lot of facts wrong like the idf death and injuries. It also is older and misses that hamas stopped firing rockets and Lebanon has a ceasefire. It takes a lot for a state to collapse, look at what happened to Syria and somehow the government still didn’t collapse. What I think will happen is the secular Israelis will lose influence as they leave the country and have lower birth rates, and the messianic Zionist’s will gain influence and become more right wing and brutal, this will cause the USA to slowly move away from them as younger people are more liberal and Israel skeptic. Israel will then have to rely on its nuclear weapons as a show of force when they no longer have US intervention as a cover. This will cause surrounding Arab countries to start making nukes to defend against Israel and each others since the Middle East is not a nuclear weapon free zone. There will also be Islamist revolutions and terror attacks in response to this which can trigger wars here and there, possibly even a civil war in Israel. Eventually larger enemies will engage Israel but it will have degraded capacity due to loss of the upper class Jews and Western support so they’ll use the Samson option.
  11. Apparently this CNN segment was shown on some Israeli tv channels ^ I am surprised
  12. South Korea is done for, their birthdate is so low for every 100 Koreans now they will have 16 children.
  13. National Assembly voted to lift the martial law he’s definitely getting impeached after this
  14. From what I understand the opposition controls legislation and keeps blocking his reforms and wants to impeach him for corruption, so he’s declaring them communists or something. His popularity is too low for anything serious.

  17. @integration journey You are biased against Assad which is biasing your analysis. Yes, Assad is bad, but the revolution resulted in a million deaths which is not worth ousting him, and most importantly, Assad is still in power, so it didn’t even work. This current situation could cause a restarted civil war, which will just make Syrians suffer even more, with no guarantee he will be deposed or what replaces him is better. Israel officials said initially they wanted Assad gone https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/middle_east/israeli-officials-say-assad-is-doomed/2011/12/14/gIQAYBuEuO_story.html they along with the US helping rebels indicates they are anti Assad, saying they are pro Assad historically is irrational. If they will help Assad now it will only be because they fear what a Islamist take-over of Syria will bring, which is a fair point, it could be even worse than Assad. I highly doubt they’d help Assad anyway, their heavy sanctions are why he is weak, at most they will probably neither support him nor help the rebels.

  19. That’s a different species. Look into the evolution of the mind and language, it isn’t as simple as biological evolution, it is more mysterious and faster.
