Establishment Democrats lose congress and the White House to an emergent fascist movement: Ahh shucks that's a bummer Establishment Democrats lose a couple seats to the DSA in New York: The world is ending! We need a new centrist manifesto! This cannot stand!

centrists love to be like “when are you socialists going to win regions and states that we centrists currently also don’t win”

oh look, the people that lost to Donald Trump twice want to fight the people who were correct this entire time.

James Carville is one of the ongoing side effects of failing to crush the South's leadership after the Civil War.

Yeah lets go third party and let republicans lock in 50 years of power Great insights from crawdad grampa who married a republican

What’s it like inside your head?

Big Tech is organized crime. Most people won’t engage with that statement. They don’t want to confront what it means — how huge the problem is and how hard it will be to fix. But that doesn’t change the fact that it’s true. Big Tech is organized crime.

I don't want to hear another word about how much white European visitors are enjoying ranch dressing while team officials, Africa's top referee, and now one of the world's most celebrated fans are turned away from the World Cup. The USA is an utterly unfit host — it's as simple as that

Lance Henriksen didn't get epic food poisoning from warm milk and yogurt so you could tell me AI is "inevitable."

I like that when I joined bluesky it was a place for sickos to not be bothered by Nazis but now it has a reputation for being super libbed up so when I say something like "do you think Wolverine got regular boners or did it pop in and out like his claws" someone will stop by to say "VOTE!"

We have always been at war with Leftasia

Though I'm much further left than the primary winners, seeing DNC wankers desperately lose their minds is like having the entire dessert menu at once. It's delightful and gives fullest meaning to 'Die mad.'

You know who else has never assimilated? Everyone who keeps flying that fucking Confederate flag.

Some in Dem establishment giving very strong vibe that they are committed to that big band sound and are sure that rock and roll will never catch on.

If only they wanted to fight Republicans as badly as they want to fight progressives. But the stakes are much higher. If Republicans win, they still have their perks and paychecks. If centrists lose to progressives, they don’t.

We need moderates? We HAVE moderates. They led us here. So much for them. We are witnessing a democratic mandate, issued from voters. Un-moderate and fight, or go away and never come back.

Lynda Barry did not squeeze your heart and simultaneously explain the point of all art with the barest of line drawings so you could tell me that AI is "inevitable."

Whenever I see OpenAI's Sam Altman with his pseudo-innocent glance, he always reminds me of Carter Burke from Aliens (1986), who deceived the entire spaceship crew in favor of his corporation, with the aim of getting rich by weaponizing a newly discovered intelligent life-form. #aliens #tech #AI

I’m pretty sure the mayor doesn’t work for Congress

There was a time when people spent years wondering aloud how Carville, a democrat, could be married to his wife, a republican. They wrote books about the marvel of it all. The answer, of course, is simply that there is no real difference between republicans and his version of a democrat.

[overheard at the DNC] "Oh, no! Who else we got that's married to the opposition?"

State of the Art:

Sam Raimi didn't strap a Super 8 camera to a 2x4 so you could tell me that AI is "inevitable."

“We have disparities across teams, across regions. No one who works at ProPublica — where we say we hire the best — should be living paycheck to paycheck.” This is why we’re fighting for fair wages: www.propublicaguild.org

Go grim and dark, as often as required.

We had moderates. They gave us decades of disastrous foreign policy, eviscerated social safety nets, soaring inequality, privatization, managed decline, and a party so terrified of confrontation that it treated rising fascism as a messaging problem instead of an existential threat.

Centrists are melting down tonight (mostly on X) because they found out that people aren't swayed any more by their policies that help no one but billionaire parasites and excite no one. Centrism has completely failed as an ideology because it stands for nothing.

Love how it's "vote blue no matter who" until the fuck ice, tax billionaires candidates win the nom.

Putting $6 on a Platner rug pull so epic it will make his voters weep for Collins. At 2-3 I'm gonna owe the bookie money. "The financial banks," huh? Is that what they did? smdh

Copaganda like an AI-written commercial:

Their business model for the last 600 years is bribe politicians, steal our resources, enclose the commons and then rent-seek and charge a toll for the privilege of using the value we created to begin with.
