The fascist playbook has always been “meet me in the middle” and then take two steps back. Rinse, repeat. Fuck bipartisanship and fuck the corpo Dems.

And instead he was shot at, not for the race stuff, but when he started talking about the class divide in general.

The brainworms have definitely hatched though

yOu’Re FiReD

Because isolationism has worked out so splendidly for us in the past. Fuck this country.

I really wish the DNC would get a blowhard demagogue cult of personality lying piece of shit like Trump to be their figurehead and then just actually do good shit once in office. Like read the fucking room man, you’re playing to sound policy when the people are voting for bloviating dickheads. Just be one of those and then worry about doing the right thing. Quoth Trae Crowder a few years back: “Do you want to be right, or do you want to win?”

The problem with status quo defense is that the status quo gets progressively (couldn’t help myself) worse the more time goes on.

This is temporarily embarrassed millionaire rhetoric. This is the reason the DNC gets away with platforming milquetoast horseshit in the first place.

You’re conflating the DNC with actual leftism.

The supposed strong economy is based on the average, which is brought up by the ultra-wealthy and their dragon hoards. The median is still getting shit on. There are lies, damned lies, and statistics.

Not enough Panera bread locations.

We had the internet in the 90s. It just wasn’t in every 12-year-old’s pocket all day, and the nefarious smoky room types were too old to understand how it worked, let alone carry our mass manipulation campaigns with it as the medium.

Boo hoo Sally

I’m not saying I think they should make the fares the same for people who book last-minute, just that they should exempt people who have to rebook through no fault of their own from that. Like “lock in” the rate at the initial booking.

Yeah absolutely don’t just paste in IDE and hit compile, but it usually gets you going in the right direction even if it gets some of the specifics wrong. Sometimes I don’t even know what to call the concept I’m looking for and describe my understanding of what I want in a fair amount of detail. Goofle can do fuckall with that, whereas GPT will say “It sounds like you probably mean…” and at least give me a starting point or a phrase to search in the docs.

Yes you have arrived at exactly my fucking point

Shitty strawman but I guess we can’t expect much from the schools out there

So less spoiler effect for Stein? Sounds pretty win-win to me.

They’re actually shaped like the things you’re supposed to use instead of Q-tips
