A big part of MAGA is admitting that Rage Against the Machine was right about everything, like how Elon called his super PAC The United States of America, Inc.

I said there were no Chargers fans in LA and it turns out I work with one so I guess that’s 4?
saw a vanity Cali plate that read BOLTFN2. this implies the existence of a BOLTFN1 and, logically, a BOLTFAN. so when someone tells you the Chargers have no fans, that’s wrong. there are 3.

if you want to actually push left-wing policies and build power you need deliver change to voters. if you're purely concerned with messaging to a handful of brain damaged twitter leftists you will never actually improve people's lives.

"Collecting that experience" is an incredible euphemism for "Asking a guy about the fact that more than a dozen women accused him of sexual misconduct"

for some reason "DOCTRINES AND COVENANTS 132 IS SUSPICIOUSLY SPECIFIC DON'T YOU THINK?" didn't catch on
unironically, this is the worst thing about a Cincinnati crowd chanting FUCK THE MORMONS. There's SO MUCH HISTORY THERE, so many opportunities for better trolling. Just chanting Fuck is boring. Bring signs about the Kirtland Safety Society Failure. Talk shit about J.S. being a bad banker!

I think about Contrapoints noting how some leftists don’t want power, they want to critique power on an almost daily basis

We do know who killed JFK. The Warren Commission was an incredibly thorough and good-faith effort to prove and document what had happened, which they did. The conspiracy theories arose in spite of best efforts to avoid them, but there really isn't anything they could have reasonably done better.
My first political memory - exactly 62 years ago right now, a 4-year-old boy trying to understand his mom's tears - is still the biggest event in my lifetime. We still (IMO) don't *really* know who killed JFK, but we know the public's trust was shattered. It's a straight line to today's mess

it's so funny to watch the far right White House press pool try to bait Trump to say something nasty about Mamdani and every time he's just like "nah this guy rocks"
