It is easy to be snarky about this stuff online, but the reality is that most activist do one or two things very successfully (and most often not chase glory for it). As much as I agree with the causes advocated by Greta Thunberg, especially climate change, put me in the skeptic camp on this.

Throughout history there hasn't been many activists that have successfully advocated on different topics. I think of Desmond Tutu or Dolores Huerta as examples, but they are far and few, and had an underlying focus or philosophy, equal rights (Tutu), or empowering the marginalized (Huerta) etc.

I might just have to start giving up on streaming services … maybe pay for some series on streaming, movies - back to physical media. (Maybe time to also resurrect the video rental shops!!!)

More than any policies, this sort of petulance is why most Democrats don’t like these progressive lefties. They make it just about themselves. IMO, this is where AOC, Mamdani et al differentiate themselves.

It’s not enough to just say “… but we are not Drump”; should be: “ you believed this guy and he’s totally failed you & o my cares about himself. Here’s what we’ll do … “. Say this LOUD and clear.

Has anyone told the Arsenal players that the top goal post is a little lower than where they are aiming? (Or that this is not rugby or American Football)

Not only she won't get on, but the GOP and the uncritical media will soon be gaslighting us that it was really Biden and Harris who are responsible for the Project 2025.

A close friend asked me today - hypothetically, would I rather have cancer or a dinner with Tr*mpf. And I had to think about the answer. (I forget his it came up, but the question was moot anyway since I already got cancer)

It’s not that hard to fathom…they did what they had to do to get elected and be part of the government - local, state, federal. The progressives can shout and complain all they want, but turning up every 4 yrs (sometimes 2) without any real grassroots strategy doesn’t work.

How does constantly crying about something that has been obvious for a good period of time help anything? Because all I see are hundreds of posts going “but … but … the Republicans”

It annoys me too, but given the breathless wall-to-wall coverage, what’re they supposed to say? “I don’t have enough information to comment” doesn’t get you clicks like “mark my words. Chelsea will canter to a PL championship this year” Most “alternate” media like blogs etc aren’t any better either.

Which is why the progressives claim they’d rather see Drumf in power rather than the so called “corporate” Democrats. It all makes sense. 💯
