War Room Lounge v112: Well now I know why Sherdog hates migration.

Again, if those numbers are even accurate, its a meme who can tell, it is fucking april. The primary is not over, and will not be until after the summer.

It's really hard to take you guys' "it's a meme, who knows if it's accurate" posts seriously when the graphic does cite to its source and the source does contain the given information. And it's easy to verify.

From WashPo and its Post-ABC poll:

In May 2012, Mitt Romney, now a U.S. senator, had a strong enthusiasm deficit of 25 points against President Barack Obama in Post-ABC polling. In June 2008, Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) was down 33 points on enthusiasm against Obama. In June 2004, Sen. John F. Kerry (D-Mass.) faced a 16-point gap on enthusiasm in his campaign to unseat President George W. Bush. Romney, McCain and Kerry all managed to narrow that gap by November but ultimately lost their elections.

Here is another question for you.

If enthusiasm is such a big deal in predicting elections, why is Sanders not the nominee?

It's over. In terms of Bernie, it's over. Will they jimmy something up, and open it up to more candidates better than Biden, if this thing gets prolonged? Maybe. But the Bernie fantasy is over. He swung. He missed. Nothing will turn his tide.

Not what I meant. I want Bernie to drop out. But until the media starts referring to Joe as the presumptive nominee and giving him the air time they would normally give a presidential nominee, it is sadly not over. Even if it is.

If I asked you to source something, and you came up with literal:

"Source: Washington Post/ABC Poll"

I'd slap you silly like the silly bitch you would be. There are minimal standards for filling out a meme poster and having it be taken at least a little seriously. Courtesy is dead. smh.

It's not up to the media. Biden's campaign could call them tomorrow and get air time. Shit, they're probably calling him 24/7. They're not trying to keep him in the dark. Biden is not visible during this crisis, because of Biden. The media, particularly the ones that lean to the left, would like nothing more than Biden to be out there every single day delivering messages.

Except evidence shows they can't. Biden literally does briefings every day from his home, but the media would rather (rightly) show Cuomo's press releases.

I made a porno that started out like that.

Wait...I meant to say that I saw a porno that started out like that, which I did. Totally didn't make a porno. Not at all.

If enthusiasm is such a big deal in predicting elections, why is Sanders not the nominee?

So...you're withdrawing your first complaint that the numbers are questionable to argue instead that they don't matter? Do you agree that these responses give the impression of demanding no criticism of Biden's candidacy, regardless of validity?

As far as an answer to your question goes, we're talking about predicting general election turnout by considering both polling and reliability of core support. The complaints about Biden being a dangerously poor candidate are not denying that he beat Sanders, as well as other superior candidates, fair and square.

If I asked you to source something, and you came up with literal:

I'd slap you silly like the silly bitch you would be. There are minimal standards for filling out a meme poster and having it be taken at least a little seriously. Courtesy is dead. smh.

But...it's an image, not a forum post. All one has to do is search "enthusiasm gap" and the outlets and it comes right up.

Was this a M2F or F2M? And what was he supposed to be on the show?

F2M. Born female. Tbh not too sure how far along any transition was during filming.

That Cannibal Warlords of Liberia one is dope. I also saw some really cool japanese documentary about the Liberian cannibals where the host goes and eats with them and sees what kind of other foods they’re into. Was weird, I wish I remembered the name of it.

 

[Islam Imamate]

But marrying outside Islam isn't allowed for women so your chances of landing one are slim

Marrying outside Islam is only allowed for Muslim men if they marry a believing Christian or Jew and only if they both live in Dar al-Islam. If a Muslim man marries any non-Muslim woman outside Dar al-Islam its at best strongly discouraged to the point of almost being haram if she is a believing Christian/Jew and of course absolutely haram at worst. But somehow this tends to be forgotten, funny isn't it how the religious restrictions that apply to men tend to be downplayed relative to those that apply to women. This is how patriarchy dilutes religion.

.....Liberia alone seemed like hell on earth during their civil wars. The best doc I’ve seen on Liberia was Liberia: An Uncivil War....not for the faint of heart. Just craziness 24/7....warlords in Liberia were ready to go fight the taliban for the US haha
