IMO there's three kinds of NuTrek:
- NuTrek made by people who loved TOS
- NuTrek made by people who loved 90s Trek
- NuTrek made by people who have heard about this show called Star Trek that they're going to have to check out some time

VASSY: 'Well, we almost won.' That neglects to take into account two people have crossed the floor, you were 27-points ahead, your leader couldn't even secure a riding he held for two decades. Are you reckoning with anything or is it just status quo?

One of the big unspoken impacts on GenX is that a huge part of the progressive moral heart of the generation was killed by AIDS.
Backing up The Argument in NYT/Siena, Gen X still has an astonishing 49% approval for Trump (!), while Boomers have dipped to 42%.
Gen X is currently tracking at 12 pts to the right of the electorate on the generic ballot. Now 9 pts to the right of Boomers, which has to be the largest gap ever.

Call me uptight but if you are in a position of public trust you shouldn’t be filming videos about life-and-death questions like you’re a side character in a mumblecore indie film about finding an abandoned couch on a Portland sidewalk. be serious or hide. don’t be unserious. we have real problems.
Things are terrible, but we need to be strategic right now.

“in theater” is a crazy way to describe minneapolis
Q: Can you be specific about how many ICE and CBP agents are currently operating in the state?
HOMAN: 3,000. There's been some rotations. They've been in theater a long time. Day after day, can't eat in restaurants, people spin on you, blowing whistles at you. But my main focus now is draw down

You can tell this came from a comic book because it portrays American policemen as being a) brave, b) brave enough to fight a gorilla, and c) responding to a critical comment by not beating the commenter senseless and then arresting them for assaulting the cop.

it's genuinely a core part of the fascist worldview that a nebulous 'warrior willpower', which only fascists have and which their enemies always completely lack, can literally overcome material reality. defeat can only come from lack of determination.

here’s the thing: there is no way Alberta separatists win a referendum to secede, but if they hold one and get 25-30% of the vote, Trump will claim that there was election fraud as a pretext to harm Canada “in defense” of Albertan sovereignty or whatever.
