This exchange from the comments, to me, characterizes Jimmy's audience:

R Tanner FDR created everything wrong with our current government, social welfare, corporate welfare, gov and corps in bed together, lobbying, military industrial complex, he laid a perfect foundation for a future government tyranny and here we are folks. Are you feeling their love yet?? Joey is the frontman for the FDR endgame

Italian Stallion @R Tanner fdr gets praise because he gave back. Sure he planted seeds, but since him we rarely git anything.

And by "gave back", the hairy eggplant here refers to the "bread" part of "bread and circuses," where voters vote to give themselves money from taxpayers instead of fully-funding the socialized insurance program. FDR is proudly quoted in left-wing and other government documents:

We put those payroll contributions there so as to give the contributors a legal, moral, and political right to collect their pensions and their unemployment benefits. With those taxes in there, no damn politician can ever scrap my social security program. Those taxes aren’t a matter of economics, they’re straight politics.

I guess state socialism is the "big things" Jimmy wants. Sounds just like cuck Bernie to me, so I can't tell why he's angry. It's not an honest job. You hire a gangster for a dirty job, not a soft clerk.

Jimmy is slow to understand that leftist ideas don't work. But he is only a jag off comedian (and I still love him).

I agree. Also, for however smug he is, he surely does the least smug lefty or center-left stand-up since before George Carlin, whose smugness always turned me off.

/u/d3rr, I didn't get any of the other comments under this post in my messages as per usual. I don't know if this is a recent issue, and I don't know if some of the other grumblings I've heard are related. There's always grumblings so I don't really take much notice and have forgotten their specifics.

Also, /u/socks deleted /u/Chipit's post, coincidentally a duplicate of this OP, but I don't know if that's in his job description, or if Chipit wanted that or not.

So none of this post's comments show here https://saidit.net/message/inbox/ ? Maybe you clicked it twice and missed the new highlighting. I do that sometimes.

Nope. Not under inbox>unread nor inbox>all. I looked before and I just checked now. It's a fluke that I noticed that post had comments and I didn't recall them so I looked to find the anomaly in your matrix. You are the one. Oddly only your comment-response is the first I've seen in my messages from this OP. I haven't looked in my preferences for a while so I don't think it's that, even by accident. I was hoping you might be updating something.

I just checked some of my recent posts and discovered others comments missing from my messages:

https://saidit.net/s/conspiracy/comments/8du7/the_legendary_alex_jones_interview/

https://saidit.net/s/WayOfTheBern/comments/8dod/bernies_organization_completely_sells_out_to/

https://saidit.net/s/censorship/comments/8d8p/china_bans_sissy_men_1306_clownfish_tv/

I thought perhaps it was some peculiar /s/politics setting. Now I wonder if something is full in my user account. I have many multisubs that I add new subs to and a while back I discovered by chance that my "metatagging" wasn't sticking because my "politics" multisub was full so I created "politics2". These may be apples and orangutans or perhaps they are glitches of a kind. I can only speculate.

Do you see "disable inbox replies" at the top of this post?

[–]JasonCarswellVoluntaryist[S] 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

Not at the top of this post, but I see "disable inbox replies" below all of my comments only on this page, in the flat line. I never took any notice of that before nor used it, not even to experiment.

FML. If anyone else has experienced this, please chime in.

[–]JasonCarswellVoluntaryist[S] 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

Both of these responses from you showed up in my messages.

    Chipit has evolved a lot since arriving here. I'm happy he's grown. He posts good stuff too. Now if socks could just wise up.

    /u/socks, you should watch this and comment on the issues raised.
