“how do we win back trump voters in 2026” we don’t. we create an environment where admitting to voting for trump is so socially embarrassing as to render them completely inert. you don’t “win back” trump voters. you demoralize them into staying home. you make it a dunce cap

he just says shit because he knows trans exterminism is the one thing he’s still “winning” on. all the more reason to jettison any democrats who bolster his popularity by going on podcasts to agree he has a point. “this guy is out of his mind, trans rights forever” is a way more compelling message

Having read the article, it's the usual "oh well somebody's gotta keep the government running" pap, which is aggravating because people already think the government isn't running and helping the chuds run it just mean people will think the chuds got it to work! This is so basic it blows my mind

once again thinking about this passage from David Lynch's book Catching the Big Fish

excerpt reads: "I hear stories about directors who scream at actors, or they trick them somehow to get a performance. And there are some people who try to run the whole business on fear. But I think this is such a joke -- it's pathetic and stupid at the same time.
When people are in fear, they don't want to go to work. So many people today have that feeling. Then the fear starts turning into hate, and they begin to hate going to work. Then the hate can turn into anger and people can become angry at their boss and their work.
If I ran my set with fear, I would get 1 percent, not 100 percent, of what I get. And there would be no fun in going down the road together. And it *should* be fun. In work and in life, we're all supposed to get along. We're supposed to have so much fun, like puppy dogs with our tails wagging. It's supposed to be great living; it's supposed to be fantastic."

Politics is just the way we make society together. Whenever someone says "I am apolitical" I hear "I am not vested in the shared project of making society" and I have to wonder why.

If you want universal health care, you have to elect people who will implement it. If sit on your hands and say “I won’t be bought cheaply; first implement universal health care and *then* I will support you”, everyone will correctly ignore you because you are a non-voter now

A really key part here: The Harris campaign didn't hire anybody new to run social. These are the same folks who were doing rapid response, who were doing what was going out before. This is really just a culture change that's about trusting the professionals who are in those roles to do their jobs.
