#1 Yeah, so Obama copied Clinton's SotU.
Originality was never a requirement.

#2 It's a lame and stupid conceit, regardless of who aped whom. Embarrassingly hokey and cloying.

#3 Perhaps Kakpacman can ask a 9 year old to provide an explanation.

#9 My only takeaway to the part of the debate I could watch (like 10 minutes) - Pete is the most sane and reasonable sounding of the bunch. I know - not exactly clearing a high bar...

#10 How can you tell?

He didn't arm wave like the others, true, in fact made it a point not to, because he was handed a script, memorized it, and presented it in his best Obama impersonation possible so he could come off clean and gaffe free.

This is a person who does exactly what he is told to do. He is a face, and a crib, and totally unashamed about it.

#11 Look at that article about him wanting for force Christian orgs to hire LGM&MBLT people. If that is allowed to stand, then forcing companies to compose themselves of a certain % of the scrabble sex group.

Imagine having a set of employees you are forced to employ, and they know it. They can do what they want without punishment and at a higher wage. Furthermore, if you look at them crossways, or they don't like you, or have an agenda, they could threaten to quit en-masse, bringing both discrimination cases and federal employment law violations against your company and individual employers, maybe even board members and stock holders.

The ambitious could work their way up the ladder quickly under the cover of law, and on the way eject the classic capitalists, those who just want to do business, and the modern capitalists, those who think a broad product sells better by concentrating on a particular market slice (getting 80% of 1/4 of the pie rather than 20% of the whole pie through focused branding aka get woke).

In this way, the capitalists are ejected and replaced by party agents; the party controls the business.

If you are like but Disney etc is already like this, no. At the end of the day, those employers still consider that business as theirs and that money must be made. The revolution eats its own, and controllers must be put in place who regard the entity as an extension of the party.

Conquered businesses actively support party politics with money and reflective advertising and company policies.

Resistant businesses can get the screws put on them until they break.

Now, say the entity decides it is time to do away with firearms. Foreign builds are easy, can't be imported. Domestically, the LITBBQ agents forced to be employed in the company are activated, the tried and true method of ruining the business with endless lawsuits and purposefully harmful interior business decisions bankrupt all firearm and ammo manufacturers large enough to be caught in the forced to hire dragnet. Smaller companies would not be able to keep up with demand without incredible price increases (demand) and long waits as to increase production, more employees would qualify them for the LBGTT quota.
