@phaedral @austinkocher If being honest about Democrat leadership's actions is GOP friendly, that's on Democrat leadership.

@AnarchoNinaWrites I find robbing voters of their agency and reasoning in an attempt to erase root causes and oversimplify a complicated issue to be distasteful.

@AnarchoNinaWrites I can be angry at everyone who shat the bed. That includes both the DNC for being shitty and unappealing and non-Harris voters in swing states for selfish idiotic choices and priorities. They all deserve scorn.

@AnarchoNinaWrites Lots of people associated inflation with Biden. The Democrat response of telling people the economy is actually good (based on the status of rich people's money, not the status of poor people's budgets) was not a great approach. You either make regular people's lives materially better or you lose to conmen promising to make people's lives materially better.

@AnarchoNinaWrites I'd also like to give a shoutout to all the people who did selfish swing-state protest votes and sat at home with their thumbs up their asses while overt lawless bigotry-laced fascism took over the chief executive. That'll show 'em! And of course none of this would be possible without the #ConservativePropagandaMatrix and its millions of sad radicalized cult victims. I seriously hope y'all feel it every time a migrant child gets abused by this state.

@justafrog @mekkaokereke Thaddeus Stevens, Moncure Conway... there are a few white old thought leaders who got it mostly right. It's also important to recognize the progressives who saw past their flawed cultures.

@eff My phone/ the NSA got bored with my antics years ago.

@JuliusGoat Trump is not a Nazi. Despite his Nazi rhetoric and Nazi aspirations and his admiration for Hitler, he's too friendly with certain Jews and the state of Israel for full Nazi buy-in. I mean they're definitely voting for him, but they're not super thrilled about it. And of course lightly antisemitic white supremacists love him.

@JuliusGoat How so?

@JuliusGoat Could you be a little more vague (and arrogantly dismissive)? How exactly are my words inaccurate? Spouting insults (even esoteric/ ostentatious ones) is a poor substitute for a *substantive rebuttal. Pettifoggery indeed!

@prolrage Good riddance to stupid terrorist shitheads.

@prolrage Anyone who kills innocent civilians

@prolrage Yep, among others, including stupid evil shitheads killing kids at a concert, begging for violent retaliation

@MarianneTiel @prolrage If I could educate myself to your satisfaction on the matter, wouldn't I already be educated to your satisfaction on the matter? Help a feller out! I need a educatin'!

@jeffowski All overgeneralizations are bad. It's easy to call cops pussies from the comfort of your keyboard. It's a lot harder to *demonstrate ethical law enforcement by joining up.

@DrALJONES And yet here we are! Representative government is a joke - the most prominent example is the MIC. Everywhere you see consensus among voters and defiant and immovable minoritarian government policy, you're seeing the oligarchic shadow government actively overriding the will of the people in bold defiance of representative government. It's bullshit, and we should all be incessantly calling it out.

@ryanhoulihan Counting is hard.

@benroyce @burnoutqueen @franktaber @fraying But if it's always shitty vs. shittier, people will get demoralized and fuck off.
