maybe I'm just old and cranky now but as soon as I realize I'm talking to a right winger I don't go "look at this cool bug I found" and I have firmly come to believe dunking on a right winger is Influencer behavior that usually comes with a flimsy ideological pretense but is really just aura farming

I'm very happy I just expected the Dems to cave without a single worthwhile concession, it seems everyone who got their hopes up has been devastated and I don't blame them but I don't need that kind of depression in my life lol.

the left has been burned a lot before by electing people we thought were good and turned out real stinkers but i think zohran is the genuine real deal for bringing her into the fold

this is b/c transphobia is a brain-melting cognitohazard. it's v. important to understand this. once you go down this path you cannot shut the fuck up about it, whether you're a republican reactionary or a beltway centrist, to the point where it resembles any other kind of net-induced cybersickness
Earle-Sears ran what felt like 12 billion ads about how much she hated trans kids and I didn’t hear a single pundit say she should stick to real issues that affect real people.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Democrat Abigail Spanberger wins Virginia governor’s race.

the ADL is launching a "Mamdani Monitor." Beyond absurd.
It couldn't get more hateful and Islamophobic if it tried, and no it will not make Jews or anybody else safer

The ADL has decided to treat fascists as allies and progressives as enemies. For a group that is tasked with protecting American Jews, that is a world historic fuck up.
I will never forgive these people for their moral decrepitude.

Literally less than a week ago Spanberger said that Zohran is not in her party.
Came here to say this, but Jamelle Bouie has this covered. 👇
When the Democratic tent includes candidates like Spanberger and Mamdani, there is no crisis, or fight, for the party. IT’S A COALITION, NOT A POINT ESTIMATE.

i want to repeat this: mamdani and spanberger have run similar campaigns tailored to their respective electorates and it is maddening to watch political journalists attempt to create some broad contrast where none exist

everyone doing the “big tent” song and dance right now is trying to get you to forget that the democrats have excluded zohran from that tent. these people do not believe a big tent can include someone like him unless he abandons his policies, and they’ll continue to call him divisive until he does.

basically every 2024 truism is dead. Trump did not build a lasting multiracial coalition or turn young men into committed Republicans. You don’t need to cave on trans rights to win. The pundits have nothing left to tell you.

The failure of the “blue no matter who” crowd to rally behind Mamdani really just lays the reality of that position bare, doesn’t it?
