brooks' brand of delusional gatekeeping will continue as long as a majority of white voters select republicans on election day - sure, the gop is getting pretty close to nazism at this point so what does that say about a majority of white voters? sorry, you can't ask that question either!

everybody understands that americans who lean right are just more likely to own guns, yeah? the jury's in on that one and nobody's contesting. sure, it's a drag to admit that if things break down, those fucks are better prepared for a shooting war but why pretend it's not true? what's the point?

U.S. gun ownership rates have remained steady, with drops among Democratic and independent men offsetting a surge among Republican women.

accepting republican framing is always destructive in the long run. there's a straight line from clinton celebrating the end of "big govt" to DOGE. a straight line from "operation gatekeeper" to obama and biden repeatedly jacking up ICE funding to stephen miller opening concentration camps etc etc.

it is to clinton's credit that among all the "republican-lite" stuff (+ all the genuinely destructive stuff he signed off on like ending glass steagall, welfare reform, etc) he and the dems actually did raise taxes on higher incomes - i just wish there was more stuff in their record like that, as

it's stupid and counterproductive for the democratic party to do "republican-lite", even if it may work for individual candidates in the short run (clinton did manage to win twice), ultimately it just legitimizes bad ideas that republicans are always going to seize and implement in worse ways.

Trump’s election brought 10’s of millions of people who never cared before into politics, including millions on the ”left.” Some of these people went on to develop a coherent political ideology, but most still just see politics as Trump versus not Trump.

i think america is a country plagued by a white majority that discarded the idea of a social compact with their fellow citizens after the passage of voting and civil rights acts in 1965. i'm not a strict monocausalist, so there's other stuff involved too. but the above is, IMO, the biggie.
some jerkoff from The Atlantic (of course) says

"I regret* to inform you that America is basically a center-right country, and that's the sweet spot of liberal constitutionalism (if we could stop buggering it up)

*I do not regret it"

A Tennessee appellate court has ruled that the killing of a woman may have been justifiable because she was trans. The court reversed a conviction, stating that the killer could have a new trial because the jury did not know the woman killed was trans. Trans panic in the modern era.

Killing of Woman May Have Been Justifiable Because She Was Trans, Tennessee Court Rules
The case is a bitter reminder of the ways LGBTQ people have had their identities weaponized by the courts in the past, most notoriously through a legal defense tactic known as gay or trans “panic.”

She did this. Any politician who makes statements like that understands they are going to lose votes. She is calculating that she will gain more. Don’t blame the people criticizing her, this was her decision.

if you are genuinely pissed about it, you should tell her. you jimokes are all the same. "oh, i feel your pain!" but all you do is argue with the folks who are getting the shaft. it'd be a big help if more normie dem voters like you let democrats like andrews know that "you're pissed".

should be doing as we're turning (even more) fascist: ie, agitating/encouraging strikes and protests, not writing sternly worded letters and threatening to have "serious conversations" with the bad guys. it's no wonder republicans have gone nuts in the last few years - there is no opposition party.

the NYPD's genuine hatred for the poor, leftists and even mediocre normie democrats. maybe middle-class people are fundamentally incapable of "getting" this or as you infer, maybe they're on board. it's a big part of why the democrats have fallen so far from the mark of what an opposition party

this is done because shoppers get too familiar with a store and don't do enough impulse buying to suit retailers - they can't have you settle into a routine that ends with you buying only what you need, so forcing you to wander around periodically becomes imperative - at least that's my theory.
