Fundraising and writing books about how they’re such fucking losers.
Democrats don't want to be an opposition party, and they don't want to be a governing party.
So what is the point of the party?

Senate Democrats are the only group of people in America that could look at the election results from *less than a week ago* and conclude, “Ah, what the people want now is for us to roll over and show our bellies to the reactionary creeps”

Democrats are such cowards. It’s not shocking each time they show their true colors but it’s truly incredible how readily they sell out any and everyone.

Funny that this was their way of sidestepping away from the original headline because the phrase “conservative feminism” is so funny. Everyone involved in the conversation is beyond stupid but conservative feminism is just patriarchy but championed by women, apparently.

The guy who was polling at 2% in February and just beat another “Democrat”, the former governor, who had the backing of billionaires and high ranking Dems, underperformed. You can just say anything on the internet.
Btw, the press obsessing about Mamdani seems weird. He seriously underperformed the Democratic vote in NYC compared to recent elections, barely scraping 50%. Moderate Democrats in VA and NJ dramatically overperformed. That seems the real story

Guess who is back to writing? I wrote about people defacing the friend companion ads, and the cycle of tech vultures destroying our world and then feeding on the consequential loneliness and pain www.thenation.com/article/soci...
AI Will Never Be Your Friend
The Friend necklace promises constant companionship and understanding. But this isn’t friendship—it’s a soulless, cynical way to prey on our loneliness and fear.
