OT: Could This Be The Election...

... that finally makes voter fraud the issue it should be instead of being shouted down by cries of racism?

"A Virginia Young Democrat working for a Democrat-aligned voter registrat ion group got caught filing applications on behalf of dead people when he f iled an application for a deceased World War II veteran who was known by a local clerk."

"Andrew Spieles, a James Madison University student working for Harrisonb urgVotes, confessed earlier this month that he submitted 19 applications fo r deceased individuals, according to a report in the local Daily News-Recor d."

"The 19 applications were submitted through HarrisonburgVotes, which is r un by Joe Fitzgerald, a prominent local Democrat. Fitzgerald is chairman of his congressional district?s Democratic Committee."

"Fitzgerald told reporters that his organization had no knowledge of Spie les?s actions and fired him immediately after Spieles confessed."

What a shock- when the new gear in the political machine gets busted, thr ow him under the bus.

No mention of charges, either.

This is totally typical of the Democrat mindset. They all think they know better than everyone else and have no respect whatsoever for democracy. They want to get everything their own way and will stop at nothing to achieve that. They probably even delude themselves into thinking what they're doing is excusable as some sort of 'noble cause corruption.'

More likely somebody gave him an out-of-date list of voters.

Never blame on malice anything that could have been caused by stupidity. There may be a lot of malice around, but there's a lot more stupidity.

They've had a lot more practice at getting away with it. Remember how Jeb Bush stole Florida for his brother?

More logic failure. Only you would use a list of voters to file applications for people to become voters.

An out-of-date list of people "eligible to voter" or "potential voters" or possibly of "people who had voted in earlier elections".

I do try to avoid sounding excessively pedantic, and you do succeed in failing to notice implicit constraints.

Nobody would file applications for people to become voters if they were already voters.

You do embrace stupidity with enthusiasm, but show no sign of being able to reliably recognise it as such - your enthusiasm for Donald Trump would be a case in point.

Being malicious about such an intellectual weaknesses is a social duty.

Cursitor Doom's idea of "mindless" is stuff that he can't follow. He really can't understand how posting links to twaddle in the Daily Express can fail to persuade other people. Sad case.

Sadly there are still several others attempting to reason with him. I've got nothing against Socialists if they're genuine. I don't agree with them but I can respect they're entitled to their views. But Sloman isn't a regular Socialist. He denies it, but he's a Cultural Marxist. He used the word "trope" in a follow-up to someone's post a while back and no one but Cultural Marxists uses that word. The problem I have with CMists is that they do not accept that other people are entitled to hold opposing views. They believe they're always in the right and anyone who disagrees with them is an enemy to be cowed into silence lest they contaminate the minds of others with truth, critical thinking and reason. To a CMist, any dissenting views must be crushed - but if they cannot be crushed then they must be discredited by means of ridicule and condescension. They are particularly unpleasant individuals to deal with because they are not only vain, supercilious and patronising, but also totally impervious to reason. George Orwell - a committed Socialist when he wrote the following about these people in 1936 - had no time for them either:-

"It may be said, however, that even if the theoretical, book-trained Socialist is not a working man himself, at least he is actuated by a love of the working class. He is endeavouring to shed his bourgeois status and fight on the side of the prolitariat - that, obviously, must be his motive. "But is it? Sometimes I look at a Socialist - the intellectual, tract- writing type of Socialist with his pullover, his fuzzy hair and his Marxian quotation - and wonder what the devil his motive really *is*. It is often difficult to believe that it is a love of anybody, especially of the working class, from he of all people is furthest removed. [...] The truth is that, to many people calling themselves Socialists, revolution does not mean a movement of the masses with which they hope to associate themselves; it means a set of reforms which 'we' (the clever ones) are going to impose on 'them' (the Lower Orders)."

IOW, Sloman to a 'T'.

Sadly Cursitor Doom doesn't even know the difference between Socialists and Communists, so his patronising acceptance of socialism looks more like a v ain attempt to appear civilised than anything worthwhile.

About which he knows nothing.

"Trope" is a low frequency word, but I've certainly seen it used by people who wouldn't qualify as "cultural Marxists".

In fact the term "cultural Marxism" is a trifle bizarre - I've not seen it used in real life.

According to Wikipedia "since the 1990s the term "Cultural Marxism" has bee n appropriated by the paleoconservative movement as part of an ongoing Cult ure War in which the very theorists who were objecting to this mass commerc ialization of culture are seen as having staged an attack on western societ y, using multiculturalism, progressive politics and political correctness a s their methods."

"This conspiracy theory version of the term is associated with American rel igious paleoconservatives such as William S. Lind, Pat Buchanan, and Paul W eyrich but also holds currency among alt-right/white nationalist groups and the neo-reactionary movement."

In other words, Cursitor Doom is a right-wing nitwit, using a specialised t erm of abuse that he doesn't actually understand.
