it is impossible to overstate the extent to which this country is now being run by people you would leave a party rather than talk to for five minutes
they hate music, they hate art, they hate artists, they hate pop, they hate the video games they play, they hate the movies they watch, like, they're just all the worst fucking people you've ever met, none of them believe in anything

"All is lost" narratives are popular because people generally do not want to take action. Taking action is tiring so if all is lost, you are off the hook. Nothing is more seductive than not having to do anything.

It's an actual game plan on the right. They use it for book bans as well. They start with something easy: no porn in libraries. That hooks in the low information folks. Then you slowly broaden the scope until you're yanking any YA that violates Christian nationalism.
one of many parallels between anti-vaxxers & those who oppose gender-affirming care: they start by pretending they have a very specific concern (MMR vaccine, puberty blockers, etc), but once given any sway or say on the matter, they quickly strive to eliminate all of it
Kennedy's zombie ACIP panel just voted to restrict hepatitis B vaccine for newborns. Experts say it will harm children for no reason. www.ms.now/news/rfk-cdc...

ACIP member Dr. Cody Meissner:

"'Do no harm' is a moral imperative. We are doing harm by changing this wording. And I vote no."

He’s right. I *hate* it but those are the (rigged) rules of the game, and we can either play by the “fair” rules and lose democracy or we can play the game sitting in front of us and then fix the rules to be fair again after we regain power from the cheaters.

It’s not cheating now. The refs say so.
Now that SCOTUS has validated gerrymandering for any racist arbitrary reason imaginable—EVERY Blue state Governor needs to redistrict their state to completely eliminate red seats.

This is the MAGA precedent. It is law now. Run with it. Beat MAGAs at their own game. Vote MAGAs out permanently.

democratic officials' social media accounts are clogged with posts about meeting boy scouts and young farmers and literally anything but what is actually happening
My one Senator, Amy Klobuchar, is terrible at responding to any news. Either she doesn't mention it at all and instead posts about visiting farmers, or she mentions it like 4 days after whatever it is that has happened, and seems physically incapable of not using the word "bipartisanship".

Only tangentially related, but FUN FACT, gang: At least 9 Japanese medical schools, including the illustrious Tokyo Medical University, have been caught CHANGING THE SCORES on admission exams to exclude female applicants for the last 20 YEARS.

This is real! It happened!

the main problem with British politics is that transphobia brainworms infected basically all of their elites (which, yes, everyone being too online)

you cannot effectively fight back against people who want ethnic purges when you want gender purges
a lot of it genuinely comes down to the fact that almost all their elites were too online on X and the post-Musk thing has basically driven the socially conservative, fiscally socialist types insane (see e.g. the Blue Labour guy) and the right is basically now calling for ethnic purges
The UK is weird and getting weirder right? Thats not my imagination? I know that's rich coming from an American, but still, I'm right on this arent I?

An easy way to explain luddites:

Textile manufacturers brought in machines that could do in an hour what would have taken 12 hours by hand.

And then, tried to keep paying the now 12x more productive workers the same wages as before.

That's it, that was the problem luddites had. Not complex.

I would not get in a car if Hakeem Jeffries was driving. We can’t continue to let him and those like him “lead” a milquetoast opposition to overt fascism.

Primary appeasers.
Elect fighters.
Jeffries: "The border is secure. That's a good thing. It happened on his watch. He wants to claim credit for it, of course he'll get credit for that. In terms of making sure that we actually deal with the issues that matter, including on immigration, there's a lot that's left to be desired."

He shouldn’t just be pushed out as the House Democrats’ leader; he needs to be primaried out of his seat entirely. Just a complete waste of a deep blue seat.

This is bigger than "AI companies are buying all the RAM."

This is "AI companies are ruining the larger market because they're bribing RAM manufacturers and no regulators anywhere in the entire world are moving to stop them."

Capitalism is incompatible with society.

I think part of What's Going On with billionaires is that the daily friction of interacting with normal people is part of what anchors people to the real world, and once you have enough money to buy your way out of the friction you can knock down a load-bearing column propping up your sanity.

Journalists have been deliberately misunderstanding this since i started paying attention 25+ years ago, which is to say they understand perfectly well but they are liars
By situating the Times as nobly filling the space between the diametrically opposed wants of the “left” and the “right” and suggesting that all of these critiques are ideologically motivated and are equally valid (or invalid), this misses the point of much of the criticism of the paper’s coverage.

💜wait, this is a DEM thing?!?! I encountered the slogan from people dunking on it! I thought it was some stupid thing a Trump admin guy said not a Dem slogan, that's the stupidest fucking thing I've ever heard
“Strong floor, no ceiling” is the type of slogan that resonates with wealthy centrist political commentators, not everyday people who are actually your voters. What does that mean to someone who is struggling to afford rent, groceries, insurance? This is why Zohran’s policy slogans were so effective
