    He picks & chooses his fights. If you think people being critical because Sanders brought a “russiagate” conspiracy theorist onto his campaign is a “dumbass smear & lies” idk what to tell you. I’m sure he’d have a lot to say if Beto or Harris brought a climate change skeptic into their campaign though. He’d have one of his 15 minute rants uploaded on YouTube within the hour. Did he comment on this?

    @Enigma I’m a populist left progressive and you’re a centrist New Democrat like Obama, Bill Clinton and Beto. We’re not going to agree on everything

    I'm to the left of all those figures, especially Bill and Beto. That's not the topic of conversation here though. Kyle Kulinski is a partisan. He pretends to be non biased and puts himself on this moral high horse on every single issue. It's either you agree with him or you're the devil. Dude ranted for like 10 minutes because Harris laughed when asked if she supported legalizing pot like 5+ years ago.

    He firmly makes his case for social democracy policies and backs it up history, facts, investigative reporting and data. He calls out weasily flip flop mealy mouthed politicians who serve the rich and elite on both sides of the aisle. Something he said must’ve hit a nerve with you. Seems like you don’t care for his aggressive style. But, if you’re in the working class and are sick of being f----- over by folks on both sides in Washington, he’s looking out for you. Who cares if he comes off as a d-ck as long as the information is on point?

    You’re completely dodging my point but fine, so be it. I don’t care that he’s aggressive. I’m explaining to you my point that I was trying to make in a previous conversation we had. That tweet you posted perfectly demonstrates how Kyle picks & chooses who he wants to make 15 minute rants about & who he wants to give a pass to. I’m sure I agree with him on a lot of things but continuously referencing him like he doesn’t have an agenda is super disingenuous. He’s not a reporter/journalist, he’s a political persona. He’s your & other leftists version of Ben Shapiro.

    So he’s supposed to cover every single story that you specifically want him to? That’s now how it works. You name a topic/story/issue and I’m sure he’s covered it though. Do some searching on YouTube. He’s a political and news commentator. It’s his job to cover issues.

    Lol!! His agenda is objectively covering the news and breaking down policies to inform people about who is on their side

    Definitely agree with everything in that reading. Teachers are underpaid and are semi disrespected.Teaching isn’t easy. And the states are falling behind at a education level compared to other countries testing a lot higher. This is something that needed to happen that last 25 years.

    My first major was actually secondary education in English. One of the classes you had to work with younger kids that was for kids before 1st grade for part of the program, and I didn’t really enjoy it. I have no idea how elementary teachers can do it. One girl who took it all serious sort of bitched at me because I let the kids call me by my first name. I said my major isn’t for teaching young kids. I understand it’s practice, but still. You would have a few kids spit randomly. One threw his ice cream. And the whole praxis test wouldn’t have went well for me so I ended up switching my major. I wouldn’t have passed the math praxis test. Some call it a f--- off degree, it really isn’t. Some of the classes aren’t bad, but eventually whatever your education was you have to pass a praxis test for all fields even ones you didn’t major, which I feel is a bit ridiculous.

    Now that I’m old enough I can go back to college and won’t need private loans, I may end up finishing the teaching program. Idk yet. I’ll see how this certification I recently got works out and if I enjoy the field.

    Tulsi Gabbard the only option I’m considering on either side. This may be the worst Democratic field of all time.

    His interactions with females has always been strange.... tbh I was always surprised how no one came out & said anything while he was VP. I mean, warranted, I think some of the pics circulating are out of context. Like I know one of the pics going around that’s suppose to paint Biden as “creepy” was denounced by the woman in the photo with him (some former obama official). Am I surprised that women have come out & stated he made them feel comfortable? Absolutely not.

    Plenty of people did. it was an ongoing thing with alt right trolls. Now, true to form, it's been further weaponized and embraced by Bernie progressive-types. It's ALL out of context, and disingenuous and stupid.

    Eh... idk man. I’m sure some of it is but Biden is a very touchy person. He’s admitted it himself. Women coming out stating he’s made them feel uncomfortable isn’t unfathomable. I will say this, I don’t think Biden has ever intended to do this in a malicious way, I think it’s just a generational/cultural norm thing that is no longer appropriate. It’s not like this is all behind closed doors; we have pics & videos of him being “touchy” in public; he’s addressed it publicly now.

    nah, the debate has been so artificial. if they weren't intimidated, if it's clearly not sexual, if - as a survivor of horrendous tragedy - he's consoling others... then talk about a nothing burger. i agree its generational, and he's from a certain school of retail politics, but the outrage machine, or that he should be disqualified from running, or whatever, is total bs.
