I Nied braaaaiiiiins 🧟

I feel like a huge problem on this app is an inability to engage with who the base of the Democratic party actually is & how they came about being it.

Yes the Cenk Uygur ad is antisemitic, yes it is transphobic, but it’s the *interaction effect* between the antisemitism and the transphobia that causes it to give off so many Hitler particles

Looks like we need to switch to "No, it's only the national DSA that's crazy, the local orgs are pretty good!" we'd been stuck on "No, it's only the local orgs that are crazy, the national DSA is pretty good!" for a minute there.

Dawg we are talking about 1966, no American white working man was suddenly getting left high and dry by deindustrialization or austerity or recession The only “radical shift in the material conditions” was “you have to let black people into your school/office/shop/apartment block now”

If you opt in to the Beta Features in settings, Bsky has a new notification system that they're testing right now & it's honestly rad as hell.

RFK is of course correct, it has been *checks notes* an entire year since an Arab has won a Nobel Prize

It's a real problem that so many people anywhere left of center in this country think that the path to victory for them lies in electing Republicans until Democrats do exactly what they tell them to.

You have to remember that these people spent the last week of the '24 election talking about a rabid squirrel that died, & they think that's how they won.

RIP Walter❤️

People that ignore this tend to be the people that ignored Hillary’s warnings about the Supreme Court in 2016

I think you can make the case that Eileen Canon is single-handedly responsible for Trump staying out of Federal prison in the docs case.

Literally doing this post unironically.

Wallahi I will make this fukken website know what happened in this country between 1966 and 1972, I have tolerated “the Dems just sold out for no reason one day and all became Big Money Uniparty Reaganites because they hate the pure and noble workers” for too long

The “something” in question was the workers themselves deciding by 1966 that they no longer wanted New Dealer welfare capitalism if it meant black Americans would benefit from it while anti-war protesters were free to burn the flag

The Hard Hat Riot is the single most important and consequential independently organized labor action in post-Gilded Age American history but the entire left-of-center has deliberately chosen to completely forget it because of how utterly embarrassing it is to us

a weird set of people who only exist online are people who celebrate the defeat of global fascism in every other country and are then horrified and appalled at the idea that they should also be expected to vote for their domestic opponent of global fascism if some of their stances are Problematic

The thing that gets me is how wooden the "acting" is.

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

You are lying to my face if you claim the attention and outrage over Trump's support of Israel in 2026 is at the same level and intensity that was directed toward Holocaust Harris in 2024. bsky.app/profile/meid...

I'm not trying to bash anyone here, but it seems really weird how excited people are about Lula kissing a trans-Congresswoman on the cheek as a revolutionary show of support, when Joe Biden wrote the forward to Sarah McBride's book:

are we still doing this and by "this" I mean taking a deliberately vaguely weasel worded statement from a dem pol with a shot at winning in a red state facing a bajillion dollars of "he wants to trans your kids" ads and deliberately twisting it into the most unfavorable interpretation possible

NEW: Ukrainian forces are making slow but tactically significant gains in the Oleksandrivka direction that may later threaten Russian logistics and efforts in the Oleksandrivka and Hulyaipole directions over the long term. Read more: isw.pub/UkrWar102526

See? There is no secret “defeat fascism once and for all” belief system. You just do the work, every election. Far left, center left, it doesn’t matter. Learn the lesson: Stop pretending you’re special and just fucking vote for Democrats.

I was just writing "I'm going to wait until major newswires start to call it, but..."

It's at 77% counted & Lula's lead keeps growing...

To be clear Grim’s post here is a loving requiem

This is some evil shit. He's brainwashed himself.

"Mahoning County Court records we obtained show that Cledith Arthur was arrested & charged with sexually abusing Acton, then 12 years old" Local news like News5 in Cleveland is doing a helluva job revealing the facts behind this vile Ramaswamy campaign ad. www.news5cleveland.com/news/politic...

good and correct (and points out, further correctly, how incredibly fucking sweaty this gambit is on the part of the Ramaswamy campaign; they *very badly don't want this* to be talked about or seen by people OTHER than the MAGAts they're trying to activate with it)
