@AnarchoNinaWrites What I wonder is if Harris could ever have distanced herself enough from the previous 4 years. Maybe the result was baked in by the anger and despair over such an ineffectual presidency which blew so many opportunities to make a stand against fascism, genocide, or even just try to make people’s lives a bit more pleasant.

@tg9541 @bmacDonald94 Yes! I feel like we missed an important aspect of information in the usual list ie. Accurate, relevant, timely, reliable and complete, but also identifiable.

@lyndamerry484 They’re really not making it easy though are they?

@quixoticgeek @pettter We can only eradicate poverty by eradicating capitalism

@AnarchoNinaWrites My very bad cartoon of Centrist logic

@augieray @evan And if a leader was supporting a regime killing your children you’d still vote for them as the lesser of two evils? I mean I get it - I’m as terrified of Trump 2 as anyone, but this isn’t an easy decision for anyone so a little bit of empathy does help rather than “you’re stoopid if you don’t vote”.

@MissingThePt This a really shit version of The Very Hungry Caterpillar

@BethanyBlack Is this because if you actually study and understand the way economies work you realise that right wing policies don’t work?

@BethanyBlack I wonder if it’s the text equivalent of rising intonation on the last word as if they are asking a question

@HistoPol @Nonilex Because it never ends. There is no military solution or they’d have found it by now.

@pettter @babe @rrwo Yes, it’s not about convincing everybody. They only need to make sure the options in front of voters are ones they are happy with. And yes, we have a corrupt voting system - because it suits them! Brexit was totally reversible given it’s non- binding nature but the media saw to it that anyone suggesting any further vote was branded as undemocratic so now we have 2 biggest parties in England that support it.

@babe @rrwo @pettter You absolutely can blame the media. They frame the narrative, imply false equivalence, ignore or trash the reputations of those who challenge the direction of travel, create the Overton Window, and constantly drip feed fear and hate into the eyes and ears of the population.
