Josh V @bruiserchgo.bsky.social · 18hEven setting aside the character assassinations, the storytelling hasn’t been very good and they are relying too heavily on gimmicky episodes in short seasons that can support 1, mayyybe 2 if they’re really good 010
Josh V @bruiserchgo.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Same here. Can’t bring myself to rewatch knowing how it turns out 030
Josh V @bruiserchgo.bsky.social · 06/10/2026One of many shows that ran a couple seasons too long when it could have ended on a high note 160
Josh V @bruiserchgo.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Oof I forgot about TUA. I never finished watching it. I put off watching episodes in the last season so long that it just fell off my Netflix Continue Watching list. 020
Josh V @bruiserchgo.bsky.social · 06/10/2026This didn’t get quite to that level for me, but it’s a show that should have ended at least 4 seasons earlier. Some stuff in later seasons got too absurd, like Carl becoming a cop. 010
Josh V @bruiserchgo.bsky.social · 06/10/2026I’d put it on my list. The ending made me never want to rewatch. 030
Josh V @bruiserchgo.bsky.social · 06/10/2026💯 The downward spiral starting in S3 tainted the first couple and S4 (granted I’m only a few episodes in) has been worse IMO. 220
Josh V @bruiserchgo.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Oh yeah I hated the ending of BSG and it’s made me not want to rewatch the show. 051
Josh V @bruiserchgo.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Yeah, no. Agreed that originalism is stupid but that’s not what they’re doing. At best it’s selective originalism, which means they’re not actually blindly adhering to it. 020
Josh V @bruiserchgo.bsky.social · 03/10/2026🎯 The GOP has gone cuckoo bananas and he’s lost his influence there. So now he’s trying to get the Democratic Party to shift even further right instead. 010
Josh V @bruiserchgo.bsky.social · 03/10/2026He’s not some innocent guy a little too late in seeing the light. He had a hand in bringing about the current state of the party. The fact that he didn’t necessarily intend for it to get this extreme isn’t all that relevant. 100

Josh V @bruiserchgo.bsky.social · 03/10/2026The van has federal government plates but I didn’t see anything elE to indicate they weren’t just random dudes abducting a woman. 2110

A community member was able to record when several ICE goons who refused to identify themselves grabbed the woman, put her into a van and then drove off. 137579754935
Josh V @bruiserchgo.bsky.social · 03/10/2026This looks like a bunch of random dudes. Only the government plates on the van provide any credibility at all. ICE needs to be completely disbanded and their crimes should be prosecuted. #AbolishICE 000

Josh V @bruiserchgo.bsky.social · 03/10/2026I agree that the two party system is failing our country but I disagree that a “radically centrist” party is the answer. We’re past the time of politics being represented on a one-dimensional axis (if it ever could be). 000

Josh V @bruiserchgo.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Oh FFS. He’s a charlatan who imagines himself as a Tony Stark. He’s been wrong much more than he’s been right. Just another way for him to get even richer off our money, like he needs it. 0100
Josh V @bruiserchgo.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Good thing we know the next president can simply ignore that and do whatever he or she wants! 0131
Josh V @bruiserchgo.bsky.social · 01/10/2026For my part, while I do believe that NYT reporting is factual, their framing and how they cover politics, as well as many garbage op-eds made me write them off years ago. But I’d probably be considered a radical lefty by their standards so they think I’m the problem, not them. Fin 000
Josh V @bruiserchgo.bsky.social · 01/10/2026This is probably true, again given the shift I described above. This refers to the *new* center-left, which I agree is ineffective. The author goes on to say that Democrats need to seek out perspectives beyond the NYT. 100
Josh V @bruiserchgo.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Now we’re getting at the crux of the article, and I don’t think it’s wrong. Having the “paper of record” which is apparently still perceived by some as “leaning left” act like things are normal and *actually* it’s the liberal left that’s the problem, enables mainstream Dems to act like that too. 100
Josh V @bruiserchgo.bsky.social · 01/10/2026I’d call the opinion section center-left at *best* and that’s only because the GOP (with the help of institutions like the NYT) has shifted the discourse to the right. What used to be center or even slightly center-right is now “center-left”. 100
Josh V @bruiserchgo.bsky.social · 01/10/2026And here we talk about that false equivalence and close on a key point. The strictly factual reporting is missing the point. The Democratic Party is a normal party in a liberal democracy while the GOP is a radical party trying to destroy it. 100
Josh V @bruiserchgo.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Now we’re getting somewhere. The NYT has yet to meet a false equivalence it wouldn’t happily push. Is this in the service of being nonpartisan? 🤔 100
Josh V @bruiserchgo.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Is that what they’re doing? Being nonpartisan and non ideological? I’m not so sure. 100
Josh V @bruiserchgo.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Interesting piece worthy of a read. Let’s break it down a bit, shall we? If the NYT is primarily a left/Democrat publication, why does it seem like they spend much of their time pandering to the right? 100
