mercurius george @mercuriusgeorge.bsky.social · 16/08/2026this morning i read this piece, and i really think it's time for some anti-spam clear action from the top of the democratic party as if dem branding being at an all-time low wasn't bad enough, they are trading in political will to prop up a class of cynical parasitic consultants via elder abuse!!!! 084
mercurius george @mercuriusgeorge.bsky.social · 15/08/2026it's really striking to me how many people have started to experience current events as if we are living in a tv show and i guess in a way this makes sense because the president is not so much governing as he is producing a pan-media reality tv show 3102
