“The hope of winning future elections” — it’s always about that, never about actually governing. Everyone in political media is incapable of framing anything outside of how it impacts the legislator, not their constituents

Big fan of democracy but we'll have to admit it's an L of historic proportions to get subverted and destroyed not by some strategic genius but by possibly the dumbest man on earth

I wish the USA had respected Jimmy Carter more than they had. He was an amazing man. He was probably the most honest president we have ever had.

i keep seeing praise for Newsom in my timeline but has he actually done anything other than talk?

Fascism is a big price to pay for making a few inadequate men feel better about themselves.

After watching Mission Impossible: Final Reckoning in IMAX, I am convinced the people acting like it isn’t one of the best in the series are just kinda disingenuous and miserable people. It actually has a heart to it and real prescient message on AI and humanities future. ITS ABSOLUTE CINEMA!!!

To all the rich trash that games the market, the hedge fund managers, and the private equity companies that lost millions and billions on the market after they pushed for fascists to take power and continuously destroy America to feed their dumb greed.

A primary goal of Mein Kampf 2025 is to completely dismantle ALL federal government infrastructure. If you dismantle the infrastructure of a democracy it’s a lot easier to dispose of said democracy and to replace it with one form of authoritarian dictatorship or another. Theirs is a theocracy.

We can't do broad tariffs without first investing billions into implementing expansive domestic manufacturing policy so we can produce our own version of these goods domestically. Our supply lines would first need YEARS to correct/onshore! All this does is raise prices!!!

the ADL thinks cops should be allowed to beat you if you wear a surgical mask

Bong Joon-ho just asked John Carpenter to score his upcoming horror film, and he said yes.

Joe Russo Says Harvey Weinstein ‘Vilified Mainstream Movies’ and Kept Blockbusters From Winning Major Awards: ‘Popular Films Were Winning Oscars Before the Mid ’90s’ Joe Russo says Harvey Weinstein is the reason big budget, high grossing films are largely barred from major awards contention.

This guy needs to stop talking, because he’s speaking from a place of deep insecurity and mediocrity

Bold of you to assume that people’s displeasure with Labor’s failings and the growing extremism won’t get Reform more seats. You not taking the threat seriously is why the US has Trump and fascists in power.

If you want a picture of the future, imagine Hakeem Jeffries saying "What leverage do we have?" — forever.

As if you don’t have reform jumping in your assholes and growing in strength as you type because labor is a weak and spineless as US Dems

They are always pointing at people and calling them NPCs, but these brain rotten creatures are the real NPCs. They only have a simple dialogue tree in the heads that keeps them saying deranged shit like that all day.

i’m losing my shit at this

Definitely put it down to watch; you’ll really enjoy it.

"Amid Ongoing Nazi Controversy" is cutting him a lot of slack

Elon Musk Shared, Then Removed a Post Absolving Dictators for Genocide The post falsely claimed that Joseph Stalin, Adolf Hitler and Mao Zedong were not responsible for the murders of millions of people, but rather public sector workers were.

Not sure when the penny is going to drop that this dude means what he tweets, does and sig heils www.nytimes.com/2025/03/14/t...

The Dead Zone is so oddly comforting to watch. Walken’s haunted yet calming performance is so interesting. It’s winter time, but all the day time lighting is warm. Doesn’t get the credit and discussions it deserves.

Rep. Jasmine Crockett

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

Gov. JB Pritzker

Gov. Tim Walz

these are our party leaders now, ignore all other opinions

The Democratic Party is led by the politician equivalent of the dad who went out for cigarettes and never came back
