This is a great point and it sort of rhymes with the stories you hear about how evangelicals are completely baffled as to how and why atheists can still be morally virtuous.

”August 7th of this year.” Lady that was 2 months ago and you are feeling guilty for something you obviously did since then. Man we can’t get rid of right wing boomers fast enough.

It really says something that everyone who believes this is normal also happens to be at least mildly autistic.

Trumpism is American culture’s oldest shadow. Trump has no moral compass to believe in the movement—he just has the predatory instincts to profit from it. He knows the reflexive inclinations of his base better than they know themselves. IMO it’s a big reason he appears to get away with everything.

Opinion polls don’t tell you what people think. Opinion polls tell you what people think people like them should think. Literally “what would someone like me say” rather than what they would actually say.

I can’t take polling or focus groups seriously. This electorate complains about costs while a company like DoorDash made $13B last year.

The cultural insinuation behind 2nd amendment fanaticism is that you will likely have to turn your gun against another civilian and not a tyrannical government.

Kevin Hassett is a clear example of how modern American politics expects us to pretend obvious sociopaths are normal just because they're Republicans.

Not a polymarket guy but I live in this district and I don’t think it’s going to be even close for Boebert. Eileen Laubacher is a decorated veteran *who actually lives here*, not some AM radio politico from the western slope.

I had heard a saying many years ago that the Northstar of tomorrows technological advancement is yesterdays science fiction. This theory dovetails with that expression. A lot of these doomsday warnings sound a lot like plot lines behind the Matrix and Terminator 2.

YOU hate Nader for throwing the 2000 election. I hate Nader for ushering in the era of Consumer as a primary political identity, touting the tort system as an alternative to normal democratic deliberation, and making things generally work worse in the USA.

There is a critical mass of people in Nebraska, and in the US frankly, who don’t care about this sort of thing at all and we’re all supposed to act like that’s just a normal part of living in a free society.

Seen this too many times before to know that the GOPs going to outperform the polling. The combined number of reactionary contrarians + closeted white nationalists in this country is fixed at around 40% of the electorate. A lot of Trump’s disapproval stems from his inefficacy, not his principles.

Nothing about this industry is sustainable. It’s an all out cash grab until single payer healthcare forces them all to reorganize and restructure. finance.yahoo.com/economy/arti...

The reason your healthcare premiums are skyrocketing? AI.
The Blue Cross Blue Shield Association released a new report showing that hospitals' use of AI is the biggest factor behind increased healthcare spending.

Between the fame and fortune, Zuck has zero insight into anything even remotely resembling a typical human experience. One of the more extreme cases of Billionaire Brain and he's just leaning into the 'eccentric billionaire' trope that wall street loves.

IDK man I feel like the extreme likelihood of something like a sex party going catastrophically awry would categorize it as something "particularly wrong". I feel like this is the type of thinking that ultimately results in the laissez-faire cultural aspect of leftism to shoot itself in the foot.

freedom and liberty is largely understood in this country as being free to be a paranoid schizophrenic while being granted grace from others who have to pretend like that’s normal.

The reason farming does nothing but consolidate is because that’s what happens when an industry votes culturally and not economically.

Not even exaggerating, this theory was how Naziism began in Germany and how antisemitism was at the bedrock of its identity. Early nazis spread propaganda aimed at dyed-in-the-wool-multigenerational-lederhosen-wearing German Jewish dissidents as the real reason the Kaiser lost the war.
