The full spiked 60 Minutes CECOT package, clean & subtitled. 1/5

They're low trust libertarians who erroneously convinced themselves they are communists because the formative moment in their political life coincided with a moment where the main anti-establishment candidate was a socialist

I thought I was pretty well informed on CECOT but this segment made my stomach turn. Everyone needs to watch this and figure out how to [TOS violation] in 2029

At some point Bouie needs to stop taking the NYT’s money if he seriously disagrees with their news coverage

If investigative journalism was such a huge money maker NBC and ABC would probably already have their own shows

Lol

Oh cool a new entry in the continuing series of I’d Rather Try to Make Cause With People That Hate Me Instead of My Mom and Her Lame Friends

Me watching these data boys post

I guess I just have to read more theory but idk how people can still say unions will save us. Seems like every union is run by the dumbest MAGA chud they can find

Republicans becoming this shit instead of Catholics-without-the-latin Episcopalians explains so much about why we are where we are

I know they called it a “focus group” but this was probably just interviews for summer internships at the Manhattan Institute

“Ignoring the understanding” fuck you

Continues to be Perfect’s strongest soldier in the battle against Good

Even at this late date, there appears to be a failure to understand that some of us do not dislike Trump only because he is not implementing our program—we literally hate unchecked power & the desire to impose a totalizing ideology on society.

"How dare the USG not adopt the position that America Bad" is, I think, kind of a hallmark of immature anarcho-nihilistic "leftism," and that's the real problem with the essay, I think. The politics are bad! Very simple.

Remember when everyone got really mad at Kamala Harris for saying the US military should be the strongest and most lethal military in the world

This is what you wanted Ken

Really cool to see someone think way too hard and also not at all simultaneously

Shot ---> chaser

Greg thinks this is not good because he can’t create content out of it, not because it’ll meaningfully help in 2028

People from all different walks of life agree that being a Democrat is the worst lamest thing you can be. Unfortunately this includes a lot of people that agree with 99.9% of Dem policies

15, 2, 12, 13, 6, 14, 2, 1, 10, 5, 4, 8, 3, 7+9+11 tied for last

Yes Dubai well known for its “maximum freedom”

Less than 12 hours later we got a perfect example of this where a bunch of people that know better agreed that Gavin Newsom had voted (?) to force schools to out trans students b/c a journalist with 250 followers, let’s be charitable and say misunderstood, something a GOP rep said

Parker come on why are you taking a GOP congressman at his word

Of course you don’t

I’m a left-leaning person on bluesky *DEFINITELY* acting in good faith by taking an unnamed Alabama rep at his word that Gavin Newsom voted (I guess governors vote now? Idk) to out trans kids to their parents

Yeah it’s a seemingly small change but: 1) US electricity demand has been basically flat for 25 years; 2) a 4.5% change almost overnight is a lot!; and 3) it’s not evenly spread out and the U.S. grid is regional and in some places very localized so national change isn’t really a useful metric

Having seen the video this seems unfair to Puka. No one says those words or anything like it he just tells him he should do a celebration that is: spin the ball, flex, and then bend over and rub your hands together

People like this need to get help

Don’t know ball 👇

I don't want to Find Friends on Bluesky, I came here to be validated or yelled at by complete strangers okay

We need to kill this belief that the states collect federal taxes

As someone that would probably be accused of this, a big part of it for me is that everyone acts like it’s a punishment or chore to be a democrat and come up with a bunch of ways to justify feeling that way

Lots of people refuse to accept that campaigns don’t really matter (or at least aren’t determinative) and Citizens United and voter ID laws don’t really help republicans

Way too many people treat voters like NPCs that can only react to what politicians say and not human beings just like you and me that can observe the world around them and develop their own ideas

Yes you are wrong and should delete the thread, except you won't because this has already been pointed out to you and you haven't, because you're just outrage farming bsky.app/profile/shiv...

JTF War might be the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard. So when we aren’t at war they’ll be doing strategic planning (and not training to mission command a war) and when there’s a war I guess we’ll just stop doing strategic planning? Good plan

You know how you know this wouldn’t have been a winning message? Because Harris did this 14 months ago and no one has any recollection of it

You can’t say this when you want to be president but Obama explained all this 17 years ago. These guys care more about being culturally republicans than they care about anything

Chapo stealing Matt Yglesias talking points. Tough scene

Really crazy how prevalent this belief is on here that nothing matters but turnout

So much of leftism is understanding all of the cause and effect correctly and then arriving at the totally wrong conclusion

I feel like the people that planned and carried out an attack on a Hanukkah celebration are probably anti-Semitic. Not really sure what the alternative even is

No one's taking Cinnabon's side. They're taking the side of two Somalis who just wanted their pastry without the racism, please.

Idk that it’s my least favorite but the biggest gap between my expectations and how much I enjoyed it was Parasite. This will soon be surpassed by One Battle After Another

Plenty of problems with JSOC and the 82nd but a big part of why there’s so much crime is just because there’s a lot of people. Same thing with Fort Cavazos
