remembering when James Carville being married to a GOP operative was sold as an endorsement of bipartisan comity and not that it meant he liked and endorsed Republican policies

The amout of libs right now saying things like "communists aren't even real" sucks so bad

#NZpol The RBNZ decided, when jobs were already fucked, unemployment simply "has to" go up or inflation won't come down. We had a main governing Party joining in with their coalition partner in sacking 1000's of workers. They plan MORE too. Connect. The. Fucking. Dots. Vote. This. Ideology. Out.

There's all this bubble talk everyone is doing as if bubbles were bad everyone loves bubbles i mean you ever met a child who doesn't like bubbles i haven't and I wouldn't want to because I bet that kid is fucked up, the kid that doesn't like bubbles but you know who does love bubbles is dogs and who

we can all individually fight back but societal gains must be coordinated in order to change a course in society. "doing your part" is a fallacy if not in conjugation with like minds with shared goals so we need new methods of communication if traditional media continues abdicating responsibility.

oppressed groups have always had the deck stacked against them, but there were always allies historically ready to surrender privilege & help fight the fight. so it comes down to resources... the right has them in full, while resources on the left become more scarce by the hour.

Luxon govt update: The govt that increased homelessness to the highest its ever been is now charging the homeless for not being easier to harrass. But don't worry the first thing Luxon did when he got to power was build bigger prisons 🤦🏾

West Coast cities are caught in a doom loop where the problem keeps growing but political elites refuse to admit that solving it requires more funding. Every few years someone comes along promising to "finally" crack down, gets elected and fails to deliver. That would have been worth writing about.

A lot of centrist pricks have internalised the wrong message from Mamdani's success: it's not that he is charming, and good in interviews, he would be screwed if he wasn't also promising and then delivering good things. A lot of the worst people simply believe they need a trot whisperer.

If Sanders had won we wouldn't be in this fucking mess. Turn on replies you fucking coward.

Tom Nichols@radiofreetom.bsky.social · 5d ago

I'm just gonna assume this is one of the people who told me in 2020 that the nominee had to be Warren or Sanders

Listening to Tom Nichols about literally anything is a remarkably stupid thing to do. This dipshit loves losing.

Tom Nichols@radiofreetom.bsky.social · 5d ago

I think it’s a remarkably stupid thing for a political candidate to say. This is not the first time people have pointed out Vance’s hypocrisy on this issue, but to pull his children into it and say that you somehow know what’s in Vance’s mind about his own kids is over the line.

I am never clicking on your video. My phone might as well not have sound because I'm never turning the sound on.

Ah, yes, Schrödingers Left who are both a minority so small they need not be catered to as well as a powerful political block who cost the Democrats every election they lose.

if an elite lobbying effort can convince you that you have to ban trans people from sports to survive in politics you straightforwardly do not have it in you to pass electoral reform, or stand up to the fossil fuel lobby, or do any of the difficult things that have to be done

An Israel defender bringing up child rape in defense of the state that loves to do this shit all the time

Elfstar@elfstarprime.bsky.social · 6d ago

But you're correct, the people she stans for are indeed fucking children. As in, Gaza has an appalling rate of underage brides, when they aren't raping Jews. Given a choice between a modern nation and a bloodthirsty culture of rapists, you choose the bloodthirsty culture of rapists. Go figure.

No. Centrists and right wingers do not claim to be against mass surveillance, they are not fundamentally ideologically opposed to it. Leftists claim to be opposed to mass surveillance, yet continually back surveillance laws. That's why I call them out. They are supposed to be OPPOSED to this stuff
