I have this rule of thumb about political pundits: Would I have a more accurate or less accurate view of the world as it is today listening to this person vs. simply listening to Rage Against the Machine's self-titled debut? If the answer is "less," which it almost always is, feel free to disregard

Honestly great job doing this like an hour after the AP call.
VoteHub@votehub.com · 10h agoNEWS — Haley Stevens has endorsed Abdul El-Sayed in the Michigan U.S. Senate race against Republican Mike Rogers.
El-Sayed: "Mike Rogers is a guy who wants to put a data center in your backyard so he can make himself feel a little more manly by making an AI video ... he's a guy who went back to Florida so he could lick every single boot Donald Trump owns to bet for his endorsement."
The most infuriating thing is I’ve seen the data and IT DOES ACTUALLY LEAD TO MORE CLICKS
Cross-laminated Tinder@nickhasthoughts.com · 10h agoI'm the guy who puts the "surprised" face on all the sports podcaster youtube videos. no one likes it but my bosses told me they'd kidnap my kids unless every single host looks like they just witnessed someone shitting on the ground right in front of them.
I think it's wild that polling is still trusted at all in an age where phone scams mean that the only people who still answer a call from an unknown number are either criminally insane or tremendously dumb. You get so little response data now, and that data itself is mostly detached from reality.
G Elliott Morris@gelliottmorris.com · 21h agoLooks like a 10-15 point polling miss in Michigan regardless of who wins. And people have been writing a lot of electability takes using this data. It’s dangerous out there folks be safe
This is why I REALLY try to stick to numbers analysis because I know that and I just say what numbers could say
Craig Calcaterra@craigcalcaterra.bsky.social · 12h ago(also: all of the intra-party sturm und drang is a function of everyone thinking they're a pundit or kingmaker now because they have a social media account and make some front-facing videos a few people watch; you're just fantasy baseball GMs, dudes. Just watch the game like other fans maybe)
"Uncomitted" was a primary movement, not a general election movement. El-Sayed endorsed Kamala Harris.
Delta Nupe@itsnotuitsme1911.bsky.social · 16h agoEl-Sayed won. I’m urging Black Detroiters to STAY HOME and be “uncommitted’ like El-Sayed was for Kamala Harris during the general election. Dearborn voted for TRUMP instead of the Black Lady. I’m encouraging Black Detroit to vote for Jill Stein or Trump , like the Arabs in Dearborn did in 24!
If there’s another dump that’s not at least 60/40 for Stevens it’s call time even for AP
thinking about people who used to say it only helps the other party to criticize a democrat. mfs gave that up soon as they stopped getting their way. now it's "[possibly generationally savvy public servant] is unraveling the fiber of democracy" every fucken week. i thought now wasn't the time lol
Republicans are evil. Remember that. All of them.
post malone ergo propter malone@proptermalone.bsky.social · 12h agoI meant to post this last night but if you’re mad about any of the primary results you got 24 hours to bleed, try not to say anything you’ll regret in 48, and then it’s Blue No Matter Who.
I think folks have to ask themselves if harboring hurt feelings and injured egos is more important than climbing out of the competitive authoritarian snake pit we live in today.

It’s very funny they all spent years cooking their brains saying the media was against them and now they can’t turn the social media hose off even if they can thumb the scale
