You have to change minds to change the future. You have to reach people to change their minds.

I hate to be this way, but she's a federal official and it's the state level where this matters

As someone who lives in a red state and never voted for any of this shit, go fuck yourself. Maybe it'll improve your outlook.

Mamdani is proposing policies that will work in New York. It's absolutely right that those policies will not work in Minnesota. So what? That used to be how both parties did things, with policies in line with their values that work locally. That's called politics.

Nobody said it was time for change because nobody knew he was doing it until the rebar was showing

Not bitter, not distracted. The biggest problem with all of our politics is that nobody seems to stand for anything but winning, and that makes both sides seem the same even though they have very different political goals.

Have the courage of your convictions.

I know Sanders' supporters were some of the most misogynistic fuckers I've ever met, and he says nothing to even ask them to get their shit together. It's not the sort of thing I'll forget. Every time I've talked myself into forgetting that stuff I've regretted it.

Demand better.

What people say makes absolutely no difference. We've seen that. What matters is what people do. We know what he did. We know he's used gay slurs and blamed women in the military for their own assaults. Where has he DONE anything that is counter to what he did before?

How has trying to be realpolitik working out for Democrats?

I used to be considered a centrist barely in line with Democrats. Now I'm a radical despite the fact that not many of my views have changed, and none of them by much.

Moving left will not kill the democratic party, especially if they don't lock out the spectrum of financial views

Bernie is supporting a white supremacist in Maine so maybe not accepting him wasn't wrong

It's a plaque. If it didn't survive, it can be replicated.

This really makes me wonder about how Charlie Kirk was killed shortly after saying Trump wasn't as smart as he thought he was and demanding the Epstein files

This is a reminder that a federal court has declared these tariffs illegal, but the judgement isn't being enforced due to an appeal

People are not even bothering to mention this

They don't need it to think. They need it to push propaganda so others think real humans are supporting what they do. Most of us tend to go along with the group, even unconsciously, so this is a good way to manipulate people.
