Looks like Bruce is about to have to give Mondo money. Fountain on sale Wed. 
 
Plus side, it's only $25. Which is $10 less than I expected. 

Getting political information from James O'Keefe is like getting scientific information from antivaxxmom.blogspot.com. 
 
 

I saw Black Pistol Fire on their last tour. They were a lot of fun, would recommend.

Just won my first test press! I'm so fucking excited. My first complete collection for one of my favorite albums in recent memory. The Saddest Landscape - Darkness Forgives.
 
I'm hype as fuck over here.

I mostly just say that to wind Matt up. 
 
 

This record rips. 

It's coming!!
 
 

She kind of looks like Bernie, from weekend at Bernies! 

Man, see, this makes me wish I didn't delete my first sentence because I thought it was a bit too personal an attack and would negate the rest of the post. Which was something along the lines of rarely bother replying to you because almost anytime the conversation moves beyond curt dismissive statements you fallback on memes or disengage anyway. But a little more snarky because internet point. 
 
I've taken to calling you Scooby Rambo in my head. "Ruh-roh Raggy, someone wheally replied. Let's get out of here!"

This is some vintage Rambo shit right here. You love you some false attribution . 
 
It was initially any honest attempt at conversation, admittedly, with some sarcasm. It became more about how you complain about the lack of constructive conversations and then nope the fuck out of most attempts. As you continue to showcase here. If you don't want to engage, fine. That's cool, I never expected it anyway. When the going gets tough the Shitty Rambo rarely gets going.
 
But then again, what do I know. I'm white or something I guess? I suppose it's irrelevant anyway, we are voting for the same candidate. 

Classic Rambo. 

Also, come on dude.  You're the first to resort to this shit while simultaneously calling out others for doing the same.

They can take my money, but they can never take my other stuff!
 
TOTY Contender for sure.

I doubt we are even that far apart but blanket statements like that are, in my opinion, reductionist to a fault. This raises my ire. Any, or most, modalities are subject to exploitation or misuse by bad actors, either by direct manipulation or ineptitude.  There are negatives and positives to socialism and examples of both in contemporary governance.
 
The free market is a great at using innovation to increase efficiency, and that is, generally speaking, a positive. But there are plenty of examples where that has a negative impact on either the consumer or the job market. Either through the direct loss of jobs or the reduction in compensation within a given sector or vertical. I think the government has an important role to play in protecting citizens from bad corporate actors, especially in situations where the market wouldn't or wouldn't correct quickly enough. Essentially, areas where the profit motive isn't aligned with outcomes that benefit the population at large. 
 
This is not an endorsement of our current government or practices, which I think we can all agree has routinely failed us. That, to me, doesn't mean that role shouldn't exist, but rather, it is currently being poorly executed. I do think some kind of mixed economy is the best approach. 
 
Does this work or did you want to cherry-pick evidence to support my point? I'm not a huge fan of selective observation but I know how to do it.

If you'll look over here kids you can see casual reductionism. It's one of the most popular fallacies!
