Jeez I wonder why I haven't heard of any Dems in Maine opposing Troy Jackson who seems to have the exact same anti Israel position that AES has. Can't figure it out, big mystery, someone should get to the bottom of that...

Talarico really sucked for the anti trans bullshit the other week. But this is heartening. Would love to hear this echoed.

Meanwhile the real miraculous future tech is solar & mRNA vaccines: preserving the planet and curing cancer. But we’re supposed to hand everything over to malevolent peeping toms and resource oubliettes for an ill defined ‘pay no attention to the man behind the curtain’ progress. It isn’t rational.

It's insidious, it's probably intentional, and if we let them get away with this, we'll be left with an "AI" policy discourse that is focused only on the tiny, unimportant yet extremely self-informant booster v. doomer debate >>

Hey, I notice you're trying to influence political candidates during an election. That's really inconvenient, politically speaking. Wouldn't it be better to wait until after the election, when the candidate has everything they need from you, and you have zero leverage?

Piker is, as usual, 100% correct. AES is going to get pelted this week about it. His debate answer, throwing piker under the bus over last week's bullshit was disappointing, and bad strategy. I hope he learned but I'm sure he hasn't. www.axios.com/2026/09/17/h...

Yeah. From the perspective of an individual, voting for is an irrational thing to do. You're going to fight through extra traffic and be late to work so you can change the vote count from 3,000,000 to 3,000,001? Why? People need a reason to put that effort in.

Yeah. A good answer would be "I support the trans people. But don't let the Republicans use this non issue to distract us from why their policies have made life unaffordable." Ds just keep caving to R framing, chasing some imagined blue collar guy who never existed in the first place

This whole thread is Looney tunes, but this one in particular is my favorite... AES won the primary and will likely win it all. Mamdani won it all. The bar majority of candidates here campaigned with have won. What's the "abundant evidence" he's poison?

This is so depressing. This whole Piker bit is Dems trying to transition from openly saying they love Israel to dog whistling it. It doesn't matter if you like Piker or don't you need to realize the only Dems saying shit like this are the aipac funded ones.

What people call “woke 1” was just elites deciding certain cultural norms were dominant, largely through Twitter exposure, and insincerely and clumsily performing them for status. Then Twitter changed, other norms seemed dominant, and elites insincerely and clumsily performed them for status.
