It is a well-known fact that Gabe Can't Miss.

Wait... he actually knows about something?

To be fair, the last election upset me.

Populism is brain-rot, regardless if it's the left or right. Cenk still thinks he can be in the club...

Competing interests?? What do you mean? There's only two interests: the evil wealthy and the regular, poor, downtrodden. If it ever looks like the wealthy are competing, it's really just 4D-chess they're playing to trick us normal people!

No you see, in this age Republicans are responding to what their audience wants. This is 100% an influencer government. If they say nothing and only respond to the rumors then they can come out on top. Deny what isn't popular, and embrace what is.

Get rid of it. Let the country have the government it voted for.

Wait, wait, wait. I thought he didn't know anything about this! In the span of one minute he knew nothing and now he knows it was all cool? I'm beginning to think this fella might not be honest.

Zookdar @zookdar.bsky.social · 04/11/2025

All systems assume people will play by some set of common rules. There's no way to make a law or rule that says "don't break the law or rule... seriously, we really mean it."

Zookdar @zookdar.bsky.social · 04/11/2025

Never heard of it. Sounds like some liberal conspiracy.

Because that lawsuit is only winnable if you have the full weight of the federal government to slam down on them.

Republicans: we wish more young people were conservative. *monkey paw curls*

That does look like the face of someone who wishes they could retire from all this.

I don't know anything about that. (I'm now going to Mike Johnson all questions.)

Zookdar @zookdar.bsky.social · 04/11/2025

it's super easy to sit in the present and re-evaluate the past. We have the benefit of far more information and events to judge. They messed up big. But it wasn't malice. They were naive and far too cautious. They assumed they could re-unify the country. Obviously those goals are now dead.

020

Zookdar @zookdar.bsky.social · 04/11/2025

It's one thing for the campaign to talk about it. It's another thing for all the officers of the executive branch to agree. Biden and his staff made some grave errors. It's also easy to forget, but even Republicans in early January 2021 considered Trump done. Everyone was foolish to think that.

Zookdar @zookdar.bsky.social · 04/11/2025

So many on the left think the issue is that people aren't progressive enough. They fail to understand how deeply unpopular they are in many areas of the country. The Democrats represent a big tent party right now. They're not all going to be progressive darlings. Most will be moderate.

Zookdar @zookdar.bsky.social · 04/11/2025

I hope he does amazing things. I also think people, especially college educated ones, think he represents a revolutionary awakening in the US. That is naive. The country is, by and large, fairly moderate about most things. He works well in his locale, but that doesn't apply to the nation.

Zookdar @zookdar.bsky.social · 04/11/2025

Well the Democrats don't have an antisemitism problem. However, there are a lot of lefties who do have that problem. And lefties and Democrats are often conflated. The worst example of the left is held up as the norm and lambasted. Meanwhile, the worst of the right is dismissed and ignored.

020

Zookdar @zookdar.bsky.social · 04/11/2025

I think they were living like the old rules still applied. Minimize the politicization, don't interfere with the DOJ, and assume the process will play out fairly. They were so overly cautious that it backfired tremendously. Don't confuse malice here with negligence. They were far too trusting.

150

Zookdar @zookdar.bsky.social · 04/11/2025

Because they're all still wishing for things to "go back to normal." They really don't want the reality to be the way it is. It's so fundamentally difficult for them to realize the game has changed. Those Republicans who couldn't play by the new rules were replaced. Democrats haven't.

Because Republicans will always defend Republicans. Always.

I'm shocked he didn't say that he knew nothing about the polls...

The future of the Republican Party is Candice and Nick... Get on board, Conservatives!

To be fair, I think they made that video last week.

Zookdar @zookdar.bsky.social · 03/11/2025

Correct. Everyone question he gets asked he says he doesn't know. "Mike, now that we've told you this. What do you think about it?"

The future of the Republican party is Candice and Nick... good luck everyone.

Republicans don't actually care about the filibuster being in place. They already have carve outs for the things they want: tax cuts and judges. At this point it only seems to hurt Democrats. Of course that assumes Dems will have the majority in the Senate in the near future. That's a tough one.

Zookdar @zookdar.bsky.social · 23/10/2025

Too many people think it's uncool to openly support the only viable alternative to Republicans...

@adammockler.com was fantastic there. He's truly an amazing rising star in the liberal commentary space.

Oh they don't just use it to defend Hasan.

Zookdar @zookdar.bsky.social · 11/10/2025

It all very much looks like the MAGA playbook: close ranks around the leader, repeat the same talking points, deny the truth, and admit to nothing. Should that ever fail... say it all lacks context. Then they have their last resort: distract with talks about the genocide.

It all makes sense when you understand that Lorenz hates liberals.

Gavin has figured it out.

Zookdar @zookdar.bsky.social · 02/10/2025

Yeah it's a sobering and important lesson. The safeguard to democracy and rights is not the law or the courts, it's the voters. Witness current events. There is no system that can keep people in line, if they're all determined to destroy those systems.

030

Zookdar @zookdar.bsky.social · 02/10/2025

Because the argument is peddled by people who know they will face no consequences. They are in a safe area and/or have resources to avoid anything truly hurtful. It's common that the most extreme voices are secure in their situation. That's a luxury belief system.

You have antivax MAGA friends??? Jk, you know they'll ignore this.

Zookdar @zookdar.bsky.social · 29/09/2025

What's that? Berate them and say they have no cards, then beg them for their help? "You Democrats suck, you're the worst, and you're all my enemy. Now, would you help us fix our own mess?"

010

Zookdar @zookdar.bsky.social · 29/09/2025

On a level I get it, sort of. Trump hated her, and that resulted in a kidnapping pot against her. Then Trump was considering a large federal base in the state, so she played nice to keep it open. And that worked. She seems to be avoiding any fights. I imagine there's no political future for her.

Zookdar @zookdar.bsky.social · 29/09/2025

Comey kept all the investigations into Trump secret, meanwhile he had multiple press conferences about the Clinton investigation. Clinton Investigation? Zero indictments. Trump Investigation? Led to Mueller then indictments of 34 individuals and three companies.

Zookdar @zookdar.bsky.social · 29/09/2025

"Don't make me fire everyone" claims Republicans in charge. Sounds a like like "you forced me to hit you."

Doesn't bitcoin actually have fairly high transaction costs due to competition on the chain? Additionally, don't the exchanges charge a fairly high trading fee? On top of that he says instant, whereas Bitcoin's transactions take up to an hour. Obviously no fraud detection is baked in...
