It's one thing to have bad opinions on here, whatever, but I really don't want to hear about how antisemitic al-Sayed is from people paying the world's richest Nazi so they have extra characters to tweet about it

Handy guide to determining if someone should get basic human rights. Is this person human? ---- yes - - - - > Yes | | No ⬇️ You're a bigot. All people are human. Ergo, the answer is still yes.
The Reflecting Pool saga is a perfect diorama of how right-wing media turns Trump’s fantasies into public reality, and then tries to quietly conceal the wreckage once the facts catch up.

Isekai as a genre is exploding in popularity because it appeals to a universal desire to get hit by a truck rather than live in the 21st century.

If you only focus on AIPAC and don’t criticize *all* corporate donors I’m looking at you sideways
I’m tired of the racism, antisemitism and Islamophobia coming from Dems; let that be a Republican thing
Let’s see if that alleged Big Tent energy can go in more than one direction
it has yet to be seen whether centrist Dems and their handlers/pundits will stick to "vote blue no matter who" we have 3ish months to test that

I need to find a good insult for the ai losers who keep tryna make us believe nobody (especially them) could live without it

It’s funny because we do this thing where Black voters are pathologized, literally, every election cycle.
brent sewer socialist🚰🌹@therealbrent.bsky.social · 14h agoSo El-Sayed is doing better with Black voters and worse with white voters than most people imagined? That’ll be fun for The Discourse.
the invention of CNN and, with it, the 24 hour news cycle is perhaps the most devastating creation of man since the nuclear bomb.
Jared Yates Sexton@jysexton.bsky.social · 15h agoIt would be rad if we didn’t have minute-to-minute coverage of elections and just reported results when they were finished. This exasperated, hyperventilating theater is good for ratings but also just bullshit.
El-Sayed projected to win MI senate nomination by NBC. Big win for progressives! #MISenate important to note that he is not a DSA-endorsed candidate despite the media and online noise.
