I'm seeing comments like "white progressives in Michigan betrayed black voters in Detroit". How so? By voting for someone that will do EVEN MORE for them and the rest of the state? Since when is better labor representation bad?

Give us someone we can vote FOR instead of relying on the opposition to be terrible & do your job for you. That's some lazy ass shit that causes apathy & allows special interests to weasel their way into everything. People are sick of voting against. That doesn't work anymore.

Thinking you'll win over Republicans by being moderate is a fever dream. You alienate half of your base by reaching right instead of left. A center-right majority in the party that's supposed to be the "left" option allows the GOP to pull the Overton window further far-right.

The capital class has been boiling the frog for decades. They made a mistake with Trump though. They turned up the heat too much, and too fast. The frogs got pissed off.

When did we switch from who has the most campaign energy to this “electability” crap? Who’s deciding this electability? Polls? PACs? Establishments? Consultants? Cause I don’t trust any of those.

Between the fascists banning and burning them, and AI companies buying them up to scan and shred, I'm surprised we have any books left. Good thing so many are being written every day. I worry about the **accurate** history books though.
