Let Mamdani be the spark that lights the fire. If the party embraced truly progressive policies, all would win in landslides all over the country. It's time is long overdue.

I think this story is probably something everyone should listen to.
Highlighting the speaker who stood in front of the Surprise mayor and told him to consider what the Mayor of Ohrdruf must’ve thought before he died by suicide: “He might have thought ‘how is this my fault I had no jurisdiction over this’ maybe he said ‘this site was not subject to local zoning.’”

At the end of the day, the Black Lives Matter era was about whether people should be killed in the street, and lots of people decided yeah and put those little blue flags on their cars. It spread to everyone because it stopped for no one.

FYI:
“There won’t be elections” and
“There might be elections but they’ll just deny the results so it won’t count”
IS VOTER SUPPRESSION LANGUAGE.
You say this, YOU are participating in discouraging people from voting.
You are part of the problem.

I think the narrative should be, this is the type of unqualified unhinged people your tax dollars are being spent on. That in the long run are going to cost you even more tax dollars when they murder someone
I think it is probably a bad idea to put clearly unhinged, angry psychopaths in federal law enforcement positions.

My whole life, advocating war has been fed to me as “the adult position,” akin to drinking your coffee black or reading the business section of the newspaper. Let’s be very clear — war is the childish nonsense of impulsive destructive idiots playing baby-brained video games with real human lives.

Most discussions about “misinformation” treat the problem as if people simply don’t have good enough critical-thinking skills. It sounds intuitive, but it’s not entirely accurate. The problem isn’t just individual ignorance, it’s the structure of the information environment people are placed into.
