bbones47.bsky.social @bbones47.bsky.social · 06/10/2026I wonder if anything he’s ever said at a rally signaled his real intentions and was the only source for that intention. The outrage machine takes up as much oxygen as Trump himself and leaves little energy to resist him on things that are real. 010
bbones47.bsky.social @bbones47.bsky.social · 05/10/2026I don’t think so. People’s lives suck and they want change. It’s not all going right. It’s intensely anti-incumbent. Obama Trump Biden Trump …Temer, Bolsonaro, Lulu, ?? 020
bbones47.bsky.social @bbones47.bsky.social · 05/10/2026And then if you were in NY metro, you segued into. “It’s 10 O’clock. Do you know where your children are?” If CF didn’t scare the crap out of you, the kpix news sure would! 000
bbones47.bsky.social @bbones47.bsky.social · 04/10/2026The thing that most egregious about billionaires is the wholesale immunity from the law that their money buys and that they can buy elections. This is what pisses people off and it’s exactly what Dems should lean in to. 010
bbones47.bsky.social @bbones47.bsky.social · 04/10/2026These people have no idea what they want. But if you sell them a NAZI sandwich they’re happy to eat every crumb. 000
bbones47.bsky.social @bbones47.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Yes this is true. But it has way more to do with human nature than conspiracy as some would have it. When you maintain standards people hold you to them. When you continually show you have no moral standards eventually there’s response paralysis. 040
bbones47.bsky.social @bbones47.bsky.social · 04/10/2026There are so many people who rarely vote . Finding out why and giving them something to vote for is a much better strategy than trying to convince MAGAs 030
bbones47.bsky.social @bbones47.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Giving up on big money donations is risky but the rewards might be huge if we can make it a big campaign issue. Campaign Finance is usually a yawner for voters but there’s a loud and growing faction who understand that political donations is how the filthy rich translate money into power. 091
bbones47.bsky.social @bbones47.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Ya know what would stop this behavior? If people didn’t send around links to the bad articles. 000

bbones47.bsky.social @bbones47.bsky.social · 24/09/2026The highest priority for Democrats if/when they take the house and Senate is to reign in ICE. Any spending bill HAS to cut funding down to bare bones. Homan, Mullin and even Noem need to be hauled in to be interrogated b y Congress. 000

bbones47.bsky.social @bbones47.bsky.social · 17/09/2026Some obvious points about probability that keeps getting lost in the AI debate. 1. A 10% chance of human extinction is not a prediction of human extinction. It’s a smallish percentage. 2. A 10% chance of extinction is not the same as a 10% chance of winning a football game. 000
bbones47.bsky.social @bbones47.bsky.social · 14/09/2026Why isn’t there a purity test for Democrats taking money from Big Oil like there is for AIPAC? 000

bbones47.bsky.social @bbones47.bsky.social · 30/08/2026Yes. Treating Woke1 as the equivalent of MAGA fascism deserves contempt as does the tendency to throw out the baby (George Floyd etc) with the bathwater (LatinX). As an intraparty debate im happy to see some prominent Dems acknowledge that Woke1 made us look tone deaf to economic suffering. 050
bbones47.bsky.social @bbones47.bsky.social · 29/08/2026This potentially life ending technology entered maturity when the most important nation on earth was led by a band of idiots. Any previous president would have worked towards international agreements to ensure AI safety. Thats the tragedy. 000

bbones47.bsky.social @bbones47.bsky.social · 21/08/2026I don’t really go for litmus tests, but if it was up to me the dividing point would be reliance on big donors. Sure, some big donations are still necessary, but the candidates should be closely vetting who they take money from and be working towards a small donor world. 000

bbones47.bsky.social @bbones47.bsky.social · 13/08/2026I’m old enough to remember when “that would initiate a constitutional crisis” was the be all for democracy. I guess the crisis, here but never declared, has been decided in favor of Trump. 031

bbones47.bsky.social @bbones47.bsky.social · 13/08/2026Woke came from a good place, was relatively harmless despite pundits claims, but made Ds look unserious. Peak woke was basically cringe. Not a good look to an angry electorate. 010
bbones47.bsky.social @bbones47.bsky.social · 09/08/2026Follow up question. Are you more confident about Blanche upholding the constitution than you were about Merrick Garland who you voted against ? 000
bbones47.bsky.social @bbones47.bsky.social · 09/08/2026The right answer: Israel had every right to defend itself including retaliation after that terrorist attack. But killing 50 Palestinians civilians for every lost Israeli is neither defence nor retaliation. The US should not be supporting this or the nation that is perpetuating this. 020
bbones47.bsky.social @bbones47.bsky.social · 09/08/2026You’re all over my feed saying essentially that nobody cares about fascism corruption etc It’s all about kitchen table stuff. Yet somehow Piker matters most? 000
bbones47.bsky.social @bbones47.bsky.social · 28/03/2026A news item that doesn’t even rank in Trumps most heinous moments was once bad enough to sink a Democratic Presidential did. (Dukakis) 010
bbones47.bsky.social @bbones47.bsky.social · 23/03/2026Let’s see. Major war in Ukraine and now The Middle East involving nuclear powers. Ai marching forward unrestricted. Global Warming also getting worse. Autocracy on the march. And now, fucking meteors! 111
bbones47.bsky.social @bbones47.bsky.social · 22/03/2026I think with Bush you could question whether we could elect a worse president, but there was no doubt that there were worse people roaming around. With Trump we’ve literally scraped the very bottom of all humanity. 040

bbones47.bsky.social @bbones47.bsky.social · 20/03/2026I checked his voting record for Progressive causes. Elizabeth Warren was tops with 100%. Fetterman was the next to worst Dem with 74%. The best Republican, Lisa Murkowski was 13%. Fetterman’s a disappointment but he’s much closer to a progressive Democrat than what passes for a moderate Republican. 001
bbones47.bsky.social @bbones47.bsky.social · 19/03/2026The rift in MAGA which will hopefully doom them is between the people who despise Jews vs the people who despise Muslims. 000

bbones47.bsky.social @bbones47.bsky.social · 17/03/2026I think Americans need to come to the same conclusion and accept our future as a mid tier power and focus on making our inevitable decline more like Britain than like Russia. Perhaps it was never worth trying to hold off China, but one year of Trump made that choice moot. 011
bbones47.bsky.social @bbones47.bsky.social · 16/03/2026Nah. It sb. “Well you’re a shit president and I still come to these press events, so why don’t you just answer the question.” 012

bbones47.bsky.social @bbones47.bsky.social · 06/03/2026I hearby introduce a new verb to the English language Fetterman (v) to deceive voters by appearance and language that you’re a working class liberal when in reality you’re a wealthy conservative. “Platner looks great, but I’m concerned he may Fetterman us if he gets elected” 251
bbones47.bsky.social @bbones47.bsky.social · 06/03/2026Ok. I did a quick look at his posts and agree with most of what he says. Still, I stand by my point that it’s weird to take Hegseth’s White Christian Nationalist screed and see primarily antisemitism. 150
bbones47.bsky.social @bbones47.bsky.social · 05/03/2026It reads as if the op assumed Jews were part of the white nationalist club and is deeply offended to find out they’re lumped in with all the other races and religions Hegseth calls a threat. 2312
bbones47.bsky.social @bbones47.bsky.social · 05/03/2026Just one wish. Abracadabra. Eisenhower is still leading the Republican Party. My life only overlapped with four months of his presidency, but he was far and away the best Republican president of my lifetime. 020
