The Democratic Socialists of America just had their convention in Atlanta. Hilarity ensued.
I thought the Libertarian goofballs took the cake at their convention in 2016. The socialists have exceeded them.

Good grief! I am more proud than ever that I am a conservative.

We really should have compassion for these people.
They are totally unprepared to live in the real world.
What's funny about it? Most of its members are intellectuals from academic & journalism, kind like
CCP of 1920s. After Chiang Kai-shek arrested and killed these CCP members, CCP was changed from intellectuals party to peasants party from 1930s.
Most of these people struggle to tie their own shoelaces and bathe on a regular basis.
You're in about as much threat from them as you are from Mao's ghost.
Are you confusing this with GenCon again?

Yes, College Republicans are notorious for their poor grooming habits.
Chicks with unshaved armpits, dudes in drug rugs and long, greasy hair. Heads-in the-clouds dreamers totally unconcerned with having a career and a bourgeois existence. Rebels, flouting society's traditions and conventions. That's them, alright.
There are chicks?

Uh, yeah. Typically a few hot ones.

I can only assume they want an aging hippie on their conquest list.
If nothing else, to confirm that they aren't missing too much.
Wait, who's the aging hippie?

Be very wary of the educated.
They think differently.
Yeah, they like abstract knowledge and utopian idea.

GenCon is in Indy right now.
There are specialty gatherings for just about any oddball groups. The NRA has convention as well.
But thanks. Now Cole and Eli think this is who any non-Trump fan is.
A couple of days ago you mocked people living off of coal and natural gas.
Now you're afraid I might mock the left for being socialists.
I wish your brain was a little bit more consistent.
I must have been off the board that day.
Don't ever make up shit about me again you worthless little fuck.
Nope, you weren't. You were about to run with an argument
that there aren't many coal miners in PA and OH anyway (after Biden said he was going to do away with coal) and I shut your ass up when pointing out that Obama's "they can learn to code" attitude is exactly why we have Trump.
I called you out on your snotty, privileged attitude.
Send me the tape! I welcome all political nuttery if it's humorous!
The problem for you is that a whole lot of millennials on the left identify as democratic socialists and are prone to talking like this, in large part because they've emerged from institutions of dubious learning with this lexicon implanted in their brains. These are many of the true believers on privileged campuses. Half of millennials identify as socialist or democratic socialist.
Were you admonishing me not to post those videos three years ago of the Libertarian Party Natl. Convention trainwreck because it might unfairly portray everyone on the right as nuts? I recall some righties here getting bothered by the way I was mocking the Libertarians, but I don't recall you objecting.
You nailed me

You closet socialist, you.

Closet?!?!?!
Why do I get the sense that you got defensive because you actually were in Indy this weekend?
It's all good. Have another tankard of mead you crazy half-elf bard!
Is this an EverQuest reference?

You'd have to pay me to spend a night in Naptown.
I accept personal checks.
Can't say as I blame you.
Trump country.
Have you ever been to Naptown?
Dangerous, ugly (except for some of the old mansions along Meridian) and, no, Indianapolis is not Trump Country: 58% for Hillary in 2016.
For a city, that's as "Trump country" as it gets.
I was actually at Camp Napalot this afternoon. Not sure if that is close. I slept in after we spent last evening with friends of ours, and the husband poured probably half a bottle of Aberlour down my throat. Then I got up and did some yard work, followed by nine holes at the club. It wasn't my aged irons that let me down today but rather the driver (one out of bounds) and the flat stick (two three-putts). I clocked in with a mediocre 47. The yard work and the golf did me in. Hence, I went to Camp Napalot for about 40 minutes before being called to duty to grill Sunday night dinner. It might bother you that I was the most conservative at dinner, which as you suspect is a minor miracle in Naptown.
Really? More than Phoenix? Tulsa? Jacksonville? Omaha? I guess I'll have to trust you on this, ally.

My bad. I try to pretend those places don't exist.
Except Phoenix. It'd be hard to believe that they love Trump more than Hoosiers.
You and your half-assed analysis...

I even said nice things about you in that post.
It's not your fault.
You did indeed. I have no ass, yet you credited me with half of one.
My absolute fury blinded me to this generous compliment. Oh, unbounded pride, I curse thee!
And you deny being a half-elven bard...

I deny everything. It's kept me alive thus far.
I also deny ever using a semicolon.
