I wish I was as popular as the K-Pop Demon Hunters.
I’ve got the demon hunting down but I still need to learn how to k-pop.

Can't stress this enough - don't ask or look into what it's about. I purposefully avoided any talk and really enjoyed the first 2 episodes. So much so that it kept me from canceling Apple now that Slow Horses season is done.
Watch Pluribus on Apple TV. From Vince Gilligan, starring Rhea Seehorn. No, I can’t tell you what it’s about. No, you shouldn’t try to find out. Just trust me. You trust me, right? Go in blind. (Also ignore the stupid ad campaign.)
The only bad part so far is they’ve only released two episodes.

Never forget that the only country in NATO history which triggered NATO article 5 is USA after a bunch of Arab terrorists took down some buildings in New York.
Now when Europe is in existential threat by former Soviets, the USA is throwing us bones and expecting gratitude.
EU need to step up.

In response to this claim that the "strategy didn't work."
The people were on our side. We were building momentum to help save our democracy. We could have won - the premium increase notices were just starting.
And giving in now will embolden him. Things will likely get worse.

Voters want a Democratic Party that fights back against the forces that have rigged the system and made their lives more difficult.
A party that comforts the afflicted and afflicts the comfortable —not a party that buckles and capitulates.
When will party leadership learn this lesson?

Authoritarianism can only succeed when democracy fails to deliver for working people.
Authoritarian parties can only succeed when the pro-democracy parties fail to fight for working people.
