  1. Kamala is a genius choice tbh. She’s a tough as nails prosecutor, which makes it hard for Trump to play the “law and order” card now. The Biden ticket is now the peace candidate, the progressive candidate, the economy candidate, the virus response candidate, and the law and order candidate. More so, no one can accuse either biden or Harris as being “socialists”. Checkmate. What’s trump gonna run on now?


  2. Elizabeth Warren or Kamala Harris tbh are my first choices. I will be excited to vote for either of them, but anyone else I’ll vote for Biden reluctantly.

     

    However, Trump probably has a lot of dirt on anyone Biden may pick at this point. Well have to see if Biden can ride out his “do nothing” strategy until November. Trump isn’t gaining in the polls yet, but he’s stabilized.


  3. I think it would increase activity if there was 1 or 2 users added to the staff team with the job of posting interesting news articles in the ‘world news’ section, they wouldn’t have moderator privileges or anything like that, they’d just keep that section alive w a steady flow of interesting discussion points. also as another user suggested the news section could be expanded to accommodate more mundane news articles like showbiz and important news in that regard. Having a steady flow of new topics in that section could greatly increase friendly debates and keep users interested throughout the day. The topics posted in the news section are almost always pretty popular but not many topics actually get made.

     

    (this isn’t me saying I’d like to do that job lmao)

    This is a great idea and I fully believe World News should be discussed...but I also worry about a Reddit-like mob-mentality forming over divisive issues and a culture of cyber bullying. But I think, on a whole, LB users are kinder and more expecting than other facets of the internet.


  4. It's where all the missing people are.

     

    False. Children are statistically more likely to be kidnapped and trafficked by people they know and trust than strangers. Stop spreading false news and distracting from the actual atrocities we know happens on a daily basis. Not everything has to be some big conspiracy for ppl to have a strong emotional reaction, if you can only sympathize with the victims of abuse and trafficking bc you think it’s some organized “cabal of elites”, not only are you extremely privileged—you are part of the reason our justice system doesn’t work properly. Stop desensitizing ppl to the real issue.
