What should we be looking for over the next couple of months to determine rookie trade targets and how hard to go after them? I am finding myself wanting to over pay for Jacory Croskey-Merritt. Please talk me down. 😂

Let's just ignore everything about Biden. It doesn't matter. Don't give it your attention.

Y'all did great on Dragonstorm too. It took me some time to figure it out but I'm really enjoying it now. Thanks for making the magic happen.

I love the themes in this piece and I really hope this shift is real. I worry that your evidence about normies being ready to fight fascism is more anecdote than data, but if America is ready to punch a dugpa in the face then I say "let's get this garmonbozia outta here."

That would be exactly when the fascists took over.

That's not irony, it's fascism.

Not that I think your overall sentiment is wrong. A lot of what you say here is in accord with what Guy Debord writes in "Society of the Spectacle." Are you familiar with it?

...on the ground. We need to organize. We need the people in the streets. We can't expect Gavin fucking Newsome to show up and win with bluster.

Your proposal is tantamount to the part in "O Brother! Where art thou?" where Pappy O'Daniels advisors suggest that they get themselves their own little person "even stumpier" to compete with the little person that Homer Stokes has hired for his campaign. We beat fascists by fighting them 4/x

ready to fight. But not in the same way Trump and his cronies fight. You want the left to play Trump's asshole game, but it is just that *their* game. Why fight a battle where you give the fascists home field advantage? No one ever beat fascism by shouting louder. That's their whole bag. 3/x

I dunno, offer some fucking solutions? The failed project of the left is not that it failed to shout loud enough or put on enough of a show... It's that it failed to actually stand up to this phase of capitalism the way that FDR was able to. People who vote left do need a leader, one who is 2/x

I like this line "liberal democracy offers moral constraints without problem-solving,” while “populism offers problem-solving without moral constraints." I think this quotation offers something deeper than the "the left should play WWE politics, too" approach. What if the left were actually to. 1/x
