Before Barack Obama, there was Jesse Jackson. He ran fascinating presidential campaigns in the 1980s, at one point being the frontrunner for the Democratic Party's nomination in 1988. Folks from Bernie Sanders to Orval Faubus endorsed him. And what a platform. 👀 RIP Reverend

I keep responding to NPR feedback forms being like "The fascists aren't paying you any more, you don't have to keep licking their boots" and they just ask for more money I won't give them due to the above reasons.

From what I understand; mostly the women, many of whom seemed to be true believers who were really buying the idea that Trump hated pedophiles as much as they did. Dumbasses, but sincerely.

But they helped make sure Athens won! If it wasn't for 300 Spartans (and thousands of slave laborers they always forget about) Athens maybe or maybe wouldn't have won in a story that's totally 100% verifiably true!

Sparta gets way too much credit for winning a single battle and not how they lost almost every single war and were eventually conquered by all of their neighbors at least once. Their way of life was historically incredibly unsuccessful.

Republicans are genuinely terrified of the reaction to their actions. It's hilarious how they lie about being popular and then walk around with armed thugs everywhere.

Tweet by Austin Belcak. Q: "Can you explain this gap on your resume?" A: "Sure, are you familiar with the 1,500 companies worth $5 trillion that laid off 367,000 workers in the past 18 months?"

Newsom agrees with most of Trump's worst policies, he just thinks Trump is too mean about it. Fuck him, we don't need more right-wing losers in power.

Newsflash; it's 2026. We haven't even had 2026 Democratic primaries, let alone 2028. Newsom won in California due to big donors and having shitty opponents, that doesn't make him a winner. We're allowed to call him shit and vote for a better Democrat; that's called Democracy. Try it sometime.

Mostly it's the lobbyists and campaign managers who like that he's more favorable to their interests, and they have the money for both ads and bots.

They're people who assume that the creator only cares about profit margins.

He's the only candidate professors at my school talk about whenever they say "It's too early to talk 2028 elections but imma do it anyway; assuming Newsom wins", but it's an MBA school so I imagine they can't even conceive of a Democrat candidate who doesn't aim for the center-right.

Yes, because that indicates you're probably at least a liberal, if not more to the left. Right-wing historians frequently tell only a single version of a story; while left-wing historians can do this as well very few right-wing ones highlight contradictory points.

Because America doesn't believe in regulations.

"I hate that so many people are mad about a genocide, I wish they'd get over it and just let people die so white people don't have to worry about being punished by fascists".

"Sure, ICE is bad, but we need to deport illegal immigrants"

No you don't.

If immigration enforcement leads to concentration camps and roving death squads, maybe it's time to just get rid of the concept of illegal immigration entirely. You've tried it, it's a bad idea in practice, so bin it.

Anyone who claims we have unprecedented level of partisan debate never had to deal with McCarthyism. The parties only get along when they agree enough to not be actual "parties". Partisan "division" usually just means one party changed their mind on something when the other didn't.

Oh hey, the Onion is talking about me for once.

Or is it a public health opportunity?

Literally. Even by fascist standards the Nazis were *uniquely* bad at actually governing. Bad tax policies, bad civil policies, bad military hierarchy, and when they realized they were losing they did everything they could to mass murder prisoners versus anything more productive.

Giving pizza a bad name, damn.

When it's done by a white collar worker it's efficiency.

When it's done by a retail worker it's laziness.

What is it? Anything that saves you enough time at work for a five minute breather.

The problem with numbers is that we don't always know what they mean in context, and people love to post them without context.

Like the context that like 70% of the Earth's surface is water. I assume that .3% includes the water. You can technically put panels on water but it's way harder.

No funding without abolishing ICE. Anything less, primary their worthless ass.

Could a message be posted on the YouTube regarding the change? I just found out about this today; was just wondering why in the world the MBS episodes stopped halfway through. Am sad, because I'm not planning to sub to Netflix (even for you guys).

Oh, well then. I didn't even know there was a Netflix deal.

There are literally millions of people you could have interviewed, and he picked the one that his hoped would make him look smart to your main audience. Numbers > not enabling white supremacy.

Is it Epstein part three time soon? Is that why the MBS series took a break? Are we in (even more) trouble? 😅
