joaquin castro calls out San Antonians who donated the max amount to trump campaign

[Winehole23]

We had that prior to Castro's troll job.Nobody got killed or had their life threatened; can't really say the same for DJT's profuse, ongoing troll job.

Is there something intrinsically wrong with shaming people for supporting a vulgar, sadistic racist?

There is always something intristically wrong with shaming unknown people. You use intristic as a alternate word for naturally?

Why don't you accept shaming as legit?

Shaming, like sarcasm, is easy but damaging. Most everyone will respond to shaming in some way, although it will almost never be in way that forwards the relationship between the shamers and the shamees. I guess if it's anger/derision/division uber alles, then knock yourself out.

It's one social lever among others. I suppose if you treated everybody like family, maybe people would mirror that back. Has that been tried?

[Blake]

It's not about you. In the grand scheme of things, having transparency of how money flows in politics and how it influences decision makers is much more important than a dozen eggs or a paint job.

Is it though?

This isn't the 1900s any more. With a cap on donations I don't see how transparency is crucial to save the democracy..... As you put it.

Shaming will discourage participation, imo.

[Winehole23]

Shaming will discourage participation, imo.Discouraging adversaries is part of the game, no?

Last election was a stinker: DJT won with fewer votes than Romney.

[Winehole23]

I suppose another side is that potential supporters might be driven off. That's fair.

Division divides, for better and for worse.

Dems didn't turn out for Hillary. That was the bigger factor.

[Winehole23]

Dems didn't turn out for Hillary. That was the bigger factor.Implicit in what I said, I agree. Both sides turned people off.

It's usually more interesting to agree than disagree. That gets lost in the reflexive, empty online agonism.

I agreed with you at least twice ITT, DarrinS, but you refused to accept it.

[Winehole23]

Viz., that there's a privacy interest in political giving, and that pols have a normative duty to watch what they say, and avoid singling people out for abuse.

[Winehole23]

Does it trump all? Unsure, but I see and respect it.

[Winehole23]

Shaming, like sarcasm, is easy but damaging. Most everyone will respond to shaming in some way, although it will almost never be in way that forwards the relationship between the shamers and the shamees.Are public power relationships akin to personal relationships?

Not rhetorical. When the prize is who gets raw power to do what needs to be done, do manners matter so much?

Trump and his supporters are doing it to all of us right now. How is it a foul for us to do it right back?

[Winehole23]

Turnabout is no longer fair play because exploiters have hurt feelings?

TDS

[boutons_deux]

These obviously well-off PUBLIC donors to Trash are very probably, in a quid pro quo transaction, rewarding Trash for cutting their taxes.

"you made me richer, I'll give some back to you"

In fucked up, corrupt SCOTUS perverse vernacular, "money is speech" and all JC is saying "hear these people speak", "look at what they "spoke" "

How is that "shaming" them for "speaking"? Why anyway is it a "shame" to buy a politician? This is America, all politicians are for sale.

Trash/Repugs can expect MANY $100Ms in donations from the oligarchy that Trash/Repugs have made insanely more wealthy and thereby more politically powerful.

Yeah yeah yeah and what you just said is exactly the rebuttal of someone with TDS. :tu

You literally gave a thumbs up to him in the Trump so awesome thread

But you're a habitual liar so there's that.

stick that thumbs up right up your fruity ass!

again racistBlaKKKe, you can't help but try and flirt with me, follow me into threads to reply to me when idgaf what a faggot like yourself has to say, and keep acting like the moral police around here when no one gives a fuck about your virtue signaling anyhow. fuck off and stop bugging me because i am not into you, not into your perverted lifestyle, nor anything to do with you.

you're literally the last person i'd give a fuck about and i wouldn't give a fuck about you tbh. drink some clorox already.

[RandomGuy]

77,000. And yes. Probably won't be a factor in 2020. Democrats will find someone more popular than Hillary, by default, and I can guarantee you we will enthusiastically crawl over glass to go vote, if that is what it would take. Cruz got that much right.
