The great thing about the Democratic Party is that there is absolutely room for both Spanberger and Mamdani

How do transphobic Deltarune fans even exist? THESE GAMES ARE QUEER AS HELL. xD It's just wild to me that people will go into the comments of a Deltarune video and go "gender ideology!!!" and "tumblr!!! >:(" This game may not be for you.

The 3.5% "rule" also applies to consistent, constant protesting. Not one off events imho. So yeah, if 15 millionesh people were in the streets every day you could see why that would be problematic for the admin. We are certainly not there yet.

3.5% consistently in the streets means: A.) The economy is breaking down. B.) Civil resources are stretched to the limit. C.) There are far more than 15 million people protesting because not everyone will be out every day.

Like legitimately look at what's going on: they've spent -all week- screaming about how this is the hate America rally, the Hamas rally, the blah blah blah And now they're all trying to be 'oh we don't care, why u so mad libs?' It's so fucking stupid lmao

I think the fact that trump has not just used the insurrection act and his admin continues to tapdance with it indicates that they're concerned that it is not, in fact, unquestioned power.

Saying Free Palestine was fine and i cheered for it. Asking me to cheer for calling my friends’ religious beliefs evil is underhanded and unacceptable

for the record, if you reply to my posts expressing that you think that maybe Trump is an invincible mastermind who can get away with anything, and I don't know you, I'll probably block I'm gonna pin this so also, for the record, if I don't follow you, please do not take that personally

Oops

Expecting my american a** TGAF what #scotus says at this point is laughable. They're no authority. Forcing #Colorado to include [moron] is against a #StatesRights to determine "#insurrection". 0/10 Beneath my contempt. https://bsky.app/profile/pottymouthpundit.bsky.social/post/3m36qgrnctc2z

It should not be understated how much clever shit like this actually annihilates morale at places like ICE/CBP. Getting made fun of like this on national television while people laugh at you is.. well, you may call it victory wine, but it ain't.

Liberals, I realize this is hard to hear but many, many people are not inherently good. At least half are inherently bad and capable of terrible, terrible things. Esp once they feel like they’ve been unleashed.

This is why we have primaries! If the Maine democratic electorate thinks its a problem, they won't vote for her.

I like Platner and don't necessarily like that schumer is backing mills, but I think he's only doing that because he sees her as his best shot at taking that seat, she's not as progressive as Platner but does definitely have progressive tendencies That being said we need Collins out either way

The whining about Janet Mills jumping into the Maine Senate race is pretty hard to take. It's fine and healthy for our candidates to run in contested primaries. It's dangerous to simply nominate people by acclamation based on internet vibes. Mills isn't even bad, she's just extremely old.

Every day that passes I am more convinced of two things: 1) This regime’s attempt to consolidate and hold power is going to collapse in truly spectacular fashion 2) That collapse is going to be astoundingly dangerous and destructive

Fascinating dichotomy right now: Political Theorists: Oh god it's Prussia all over again, personalist control of the military. Political Admins: Wait.. how are they actually going to *do* that, that's not how money actually works in the government.

This government is a well-oiled machine that’s definitely not suffering from internal power struggles hastily papered over as technical mistakes

A full victory over authoritarianism will be a kind of mass gaslighting campaign. Systematically isolating MAGA holdouts from their peers by changing politics so that the far-right lights their hair on fire while the large contingent of disengaged center-right voters checks out.

Because it needs to be said: The Salvation Army does not exist to save you The Salvation Army exists to convert you And if they cannot convert you, they will not lift a finger to save you Do not support those whose “charity“ comes with conditions

This is such a huge relief to me simply because internet funny money pedo bucks seemed like a transparent scam to me but the bubble kept on not bursting and I was starting to question my grip on reality.

#voting #VoteFraud They are hysterically stupid. Read this article: I fail to see how they could be more busted, in a few months. #LibertyVote #ScottLeiendecker https://archive.is/20251009202711/https://www.axios.com/2025/10/09/dominion-voting-machines-sold-elections

He has advanced dementia.

If nothing else, I think doomers and people who constantly post about how Trump is a godking should take a deep breath and watch the GOP flail, panic, and ultimately at some point in the future capitulate and wonder if they're being honest with themselves Hell, it might improve your quality of life

I would actually point out that the level of resources, the number of members of leadership that are involved, etc. in Chicago demonstrates just how little bandwidth they actually have for this. They can do a city or two with token forces AT MOST.

It feels like Pritzker is de facto the leader of the opposition now in the same way Trump was under Biden. A lot is due to circumstances and there's certainly some wishful thinking on my part too, but it feels nice to have someone in the arena.

Allow me to suggest that an authoritarian executive, if he were actually to go about arresting his foes, wouldn't be poasting it.

"Zionism is un-Jewish" is cowardice of the sort I usually expect from Christians unwilling to interrogate their own traditions. Zionism is inextricably tied with Judaism. That does not make it good or beyond criticism. Have the courage to accept this & assess Zionism accordingly.

You can see things may be getting more tense internally though. Bessent, Gabbard and Rubio are making themselves scarce. Even Bondi isn't as present as she was.

Sup Gen Z, Millennial here who got sold the lie and watched it blow up in 2008. This is a bunch of horseshit and your lack of "grindset" is not the issue. We're living through late stage capitalism and 5 evil bastards own all the wealth on the planet. You're doing as good as anyone could hope.

How does anyone take this shitlord seriously, honestly.

havent used this platform in forever but fuck trump, fuck charlie kirk, fuck matt walsh and fuck isreal. see ya again in 6 months.

That is great info to know Mr. plane

My god that's high

I get it - people are scared, anxious, angry, etc. - but we really gotta keep it straight between what MAGA wants and what MAGA can do. They *want* to occupy and terrorize Portland, but they *can* protect one building with a handful of troops.

This here pretty much Now it's just a waiting game to see how much damage has to be mitigated unfortunately which umm yeah who knows

This is stuff that a president desperate for good press thinks about.

I shouldn't have to mention this because it's been belabored a lot here, but the owner of politico is a massive Trump person and it clouds the entire editorial bent of the website.

Bluesky feed is like ------------------ we're doomed ------------------ we're doomed ------------------ we're doomed ------------------ cute kitty! ------------------ we're doomed ------------------ we're doomed ------------------ [adult content] ------------------ we're doomed ------------------

Pritzker has just been on fire lately He always has the right idea I swear

Too real. We’re going to try to fix this. Social media doesn’t have to be this way.

I mean if I was a person inside the RW movement, I'd be internalizing right now that no one around me actually cares about me in any way shape or form or if something bad happens to me if they can't use it to further their ends. It's a movement for sociopaths, by sociopaths.

yeah they are in fucking panic mode because dems will not budge on the issue of trans healthcare even if schumer and jeffries cave

It's becoming clear that this is not an administration that is popular or skilled enough to do the consolidation needed to implement actual fascism, so they've decided that constantly creating fascism-flavored content is good enough

Do not punish the behaviour you want to see.

Oh they are PISSED

At the risk of long winded pontification that no one is going to read, I have been thinking on why the whole "Bluesky is an echo chamber, you're making a mistake posting there!!" or similar takes bother me so much.

Zion's about as good as it gets There's so much cynicism in games media but this guy just wanted to talk about the stuff that made him happy. His documentary work is some of the best Nintendo Life's had in its entire run

I like this perspective. Ima stand over here and look at it this way for a while.
