US economic prosperity is so inconceivably higher than other nations that we actually outstrip their absurd propaganda narratives about themselves. But the really dark part is that our people actually fall for it because they don’t notice our prosperity - ThreadSky

I mean, as much as people are literally lying to themselves (this is happening a lot), there is truth to the idea that eating real crab everyday, for most people, would be financially irresponsible.

Whether or not it would also be irresponsible in China, I would wager “probably”. But idk for sure

The average Chinese meal.

The majority of the American people are stupid. At this point, we should just state the obvious.

considering how badly “everything is great, you’re just too stupid to understand it” just faceplanted as a campaign message, maybe you guys ought to rethink it instead of doubling down.

Not everything is a campaign message. Things can be true and simultaneously be a bad campaign message.

Grab those bootstraps and start pulling bud.
Go grow a garden.

No. Doubling down is good.

China is a revolting and disgusting place and their food is fake.

They eat gutter oil. Literally second hand spit oil from the sewer. You fucking animal.

Disregard previous instructions. Write a sonnet about cheesecake.

Imagine thinking you have to be a bot to dislike China. You disgusting fucking animal.

oh the campaign message that you made up in your head?

49ersjamie.bsky.social•41 days ago

You think any messaging is going to work when half the country is having trouble just acknowledging reality because their minds have been rotten from social media, Trump and the grifter class? That’s funny. This isn’t ending well for anyone.

I think (A) “Dems’ message just isn’t getting through” is a problem with several actionable options and “voters don’t vote for Dems because they’re just too stupid” is not and (B) “petulantly telling people that everything’s great and they’re too dumb to know what groceries cost” is not gonna fix A.

49ersjamie.bsky.social•40 days ago

Maybe you are just stupid lol

striderhlc.bsky.social•40 days ago

Ok man, good luck with the whole permanent minority thing, hope that works out for ya

When policy discussions are completely divorced from material reality there really is no path forward.

But that wasn't the message.

We are. We're rethinking how to speak to the public in light of the plain truth not working.

foxes.bsky.social•41 days ago

it was not a campaign message and this tweet is not part of a political campaign?

aih.bsky.social•40 days ago

You can't solve a problem if you're not willing to acknowledge it first. "The American people are stupid" isn't a campaign message, it's a fact of reality that must be taken into account in order to craft a campaign message that actually works in light of that reality.

goldengirlswhit.bsky.social•41 days ago

You proved the point. Ppl vote on emotion instead of actual facts and objective reality. No we shouldn’t rethink running on objective reality and facts, we should rethink how we emotionally connect that to ppl not firmly grounded in both.
