So, I ask the #Mastodonians: Does this kind of attention work better than sitting down with CNN? Does this kind of viral video work better than answering stupid questions about #Trump? Does this kind of normal moment do anything to continue the narrative that the other side is just 'weird' and her side is the most relatable? I would argue that it does. 🤔

So, I'm following all of the legit news sources over here, but I still can't seem to break my habit of getting 'BREAKING' news from #Xitter. I don't bother posting over there, but I check it constantly.

Who can I follow here to make my #Mastodon feed just as up-to-date on what's happening in the world as other social media sites? Is it even there yet? Is it possible to turn your feed here into the only feed you'll ever need? 🤔

Translation:
We are going to arbitrarily and artificially suppress large accounts and boost selective smaller accounts that fit the narratives we want, to push curated propaganda ahead of an election.

Anyway, remember that time the roast of Rob Lowe turned into the roast of Ann Coulter? 😅

And there lies the problem...

You see the release of hostages as ONLY helping Israel. HAMAS releasing the hostages means a ceasefire. They aren't going to stop until the last 72 (I think) people are released.

Having people speak at the love fest isn't going to change that. Biden is on the phone every day trying to get a cease fire before the election. Trust in that.

@guyjantic @jacklaridian
No, I think we agree that Joe should stop sending them bombs. He's not going to do that because he wants to stay in the good graces with Netanyahu. I thoroughly disagree with how he's handling this mess, but be clear that he's not doing NOTHING.

More importantly, I'm sick of people blaming Kamala for Joe's failed policies. The VP has no power, outside of being the deciding vote in Congress. This is HER moment and if she doesn't win, Gaza is toast.

@guyjantic @jacklaridian
Think about it like this...

Americans vote on vibes. The DNC is a 'good vibe' place where Joe Biden gets a 10 min ovation for 'having the courage' to step down. Whatever.

It's good for the election that the DNC stays a love fest, which excludes voices that are going to hold his feet to the fire.

So let Biden continue his half-assed fight to get a cease fire before the election. The next administration can go after Bibi for war crimes.. and Biden, for that matter.

@altruios
Who are you talking to? Didn't you just hear what she said about Gaza?

@altruios
So, you're mad at Joe. Don't take it out on her. She isn't in charge yet.

@altruios
You mean when she said, 'I'm speaking' or when she addressed the matter directly?

"President Biden and I are working to end this war such that Israel is secure, the hostages are released, the suffering in Gaza ends, and the Palestinian people can realize their right to dignity. Security. Freedom. And self-determination."

@guyjantic
No one is ignoring Palestine. They are literally fighting to get the hostages released every day.

@guyjantic
Is that your only measuring stick? You gonna just ignore the work being done just because they didn't let anyone speak who was gonna shit on Joe. There's a time and a place.

Okay, he's absolutely LOSING IT tonight. 😅

@curtisysmith
What's the point here? That phrases all have origins? Oh no!! Hitler once said 'Have a nice day,' so now we can't say that!! 😅

@curtisysmith
So, they're using a slogan about joy just to secretly make fun of progressives? That seems like a stretch.

@curtisysmith
Do you think everyone who uses the phrase 'rule of thumb' advocates for domestic violence? That phrase has a dark history. Don't you think it's more likely that they're actually just advocating to find strength through the power positive thinking? As a progressive myself, I don't see the connection that specifically.

This moment was so impactful. Gus openly bawling in happiness for the love being shown his father tells me he's a well-adjusted young man that has seen his dad openly weep on many occasions. No shame in crying when you're that happy and being that emotionally mature means he's going to be a good man, just like his father. 🥰

MEDIA: "WHY AREN'T YOU ANSWERING QUESTIONS?"

HARRIS: "Fine, what is your question?"

MEDIA: "WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT WHAT TRUMP SAID?"

Kamala Harris doesn't owe the press any time. She's speaking directly to the voters and (for now) that's all she needs to do. They need her more than she needs them. 🇺🇸

Disney has decided that the backlash of their stupid decision will be too great of a financial liability and would like you to believe they are not heartless.

"At Disney, we strive to put money above all other considerations"
