Populism punches up in theory and punches down in practice.

One of those cheap Christmas romance movies is being filmed here at Gettysburg but the gimmick is that it takes place at Christmastime in 1863. So they've blocked off one of the main streets, taken out the parking meters & spread dirt all over the street & sidewalks.

The questions pile up like dirty laundry:

Why now? Do they think they're striking while the iron is hot?

Why this particular Super Bowl? The halftime show ALWAYS makes them upset

What kind of ratings do they expect to pull against SBLX? Will they have advertisers?

One month ago today, we saw Charlie Kirk get blown to hell & subsequently get lots of unearned sympathy. Now his garbage organization is squandering that waver-thin sympathy by promoting counterprograming to the most popular televised event...why? Because Bad Bunny sings in Spanish? I don't get it.

I still can't believe a person who is responsible for healthcare in this country said out loud and meant it that a cause of autism is children getting circumcised. I still cannot believe that this is the country, the world, that I fucking live in

It's ironic that Bernie Sanders, who foisted not one but two unnecessary and divisive primaries onto the party in the past and now is saying that we don't need an unnecessary and divisive primary

This is fucking hilarious. They really think they own the culture again because they snatched the government

The voters don't know what they want. Which is kinda the problem.

I'm perfectly ok with new Star Wars stuff in perpetuity, I'm just sick of hearing that people wanted 2019 back

That's a decent point. He has a reactionary streak

Mister Magic @mistermagic.bsky.social · 20h

The point is that we aren't agreeing with these conservatives, they're agreeing with us. They can move towards us but we have no obligation to move towards them.

WWII "Friend" poster series from the Allied Forces, originally demonstrating the various Allied forces (British, Australian, Chinese, French, Dutch, etc.) and their appearances

It reads:

"This man is your FRIEND

He fights for FREEDOM"

The image is a sepia/black and white toned image of the Portland Frog protester, simply labelled FROG

I live in Marie Gluesenkamp Perez’s district, and she makes me want to pull my hair out.

She’s possibly the biggest “Aw shucks, I’m just a fascist like you” phony Dem of them all. An absolute living caricature of the worst kind of Democrat imaginable

The Betrayals of Marie Gluesenkamp Perez

The representative from Washington has been hailed as the future of Democratic politics. But for those of us who actually live in her district, she’s just more of the same.

Apparently he actually said that:

“How many of you gave more today than you ever gave?” Thornton said, both hands on the gun. “No, I’m joking,” he said, prompting laughter from the room.

Because it's hilarious especially after all that nonsense about Kirk in September
