You'd think that I, a downwardly mobile male born in 1997, would be the perfect victim for this but I am simply built different (bisexual)

I've been screaming into the wilderness about this. We are going to need SEVEN MILLION more direct care workers by 2030. These are working class jobs. Dems should help these workers unionize and develop, well, class consciousness. But very few of them are white men so nope, I guess

This is not Matt Dargay's official presidential endorsement (tm) but if it's Pritzker I want the big fella climbing in a bulldozer and doing it himself

Awesome - all the easier for the next Democratic president to demolish the ballroom on January 20th, 2029 and rebuild the real East Wing down to the last splinter.

Yup. That 35% is Trump's base, as we see over and over again. The 21% are NYC area Dems and the most politically engaged subset of the Dem base. A big chunk of that 44% are people like my mom, Dem voters who'd like Zohran but have never heard of him, because they don't live in NYC or on the internet

A left wing politics that is oriented around your rights and identity as an individual consumer instead of your responsibilities as a member of a social or political community is basically a left aesthetic pasted onto an internalized neoliberal ontology.

I'm a 22-year-old Hillsdale College grad and was recently appointed to the third highest role in the State Department. This statement is the core of my politics and explains why we need to ban Lithuanians (don't ask why) from the country

An image of a list of the 27 grievances against King George III in the Declaration of Independence. Donald Trump's regime has committed at least 20 of them in whole or in part, condensed into the list below:
1.	He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good.
2.	He has refused to pass other Laws for the accommodation of large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of representation …
3.	He has dissolved Representative Houses repeatedly, for opposing … his invasions on the rights of the people.
4.	He has endeavoured to prevent the population of these States; … obstructing the Laws for Naturalization of Foreigners …
5.	He has obstructed the Administration of Justice …
6.	He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone, for the tenure of their offices …
7.	He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance.
8.	He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures.
9.	He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil power.
10.	He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution … giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation:
11.	For Quartering large bodies of armed troops among us:
12.	For protecting them … from punishment for any Murders which they should commit …
13.	For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world:
14.	For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent:
15.	For depriving us … of the benefits of Trial by Jury:
16.	For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences:
17.	For … abolishing our most valuable Laws, and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments:
18.	He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection and waging War against us.
19.	He has … destroyed the lives of our people.
20.	He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us …

The Declaration of Independence specifies 27 grievances with King George III and Britain.

Donald Trump and his regime have committed at least 20 of those same offenses highlighted in yellow.

I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.

anyone else notice that the west took a turn for the worse once the concept of signaling one’s own social virtue became derogatory, almost as if cynically deriding all displays of charity and good will is indicative of a deeply cynical and nihilistic society capable of collaborating in genocide

Democrats Must Embrace War Mindset We have exited a long period of peace and entered into a struggle not unlike war, in which all the old certainties have gone malleable and the future of the republic is at stake.

Between this, the epstein list, obsession with trans kids playing sports, & neverending conspiracy theories about what's going on in schoolsin general, you realize that the primary concern of the Republican party and its supporters is their deep desire to abuse children

This is the thing they'll never understand about "wokeness" or "political correctness" - huge organizations didn't implement these policies because of "cancel culture" or secret communists, they did it to stay competitive and viable. It's what people wanted
