If Mainstream Media is irrelevant and replaced by "new media", GOP lost their oldest fallback excuse for losing elections going back as far as I can remember.

It's so blackpilling that if you brought up blatant misogyny was a huge force behind Hillary's 2016 loss you just got screamed at that it was axeshually all about industrial policy or ignored rustbelt or whatever.......

To show how fast political fortunes change, Ron DeSantis' political career was essentially ended last night and really no one even noticed. He was probably a slight favorite for the 2024 GOP Presidential Nominee by conventional wisdom after the 2022 midterms.

Not to be too Doomer Soothsayer, but the possibility of Trump running for a 3rd term and the Roberts' Supreme Court allowing it feels like it's as too casually dismissed as Roe v Wade being overturned was in 2016.

I believe Musk is pushing hard for elections in Ukraine because he truly believes he can manipulate voters with social media. This seems to be consensus view on the sci-fi obsessed Tech Right. Like Lex Luthor believing he has developed a mass mind control device technology.

Vibe shift has been sudden this week. All the Vice Signaling and MAGA Hugging that has been happening since the election by business leaders and public figures is going to age like the Ice Bucket Challenge or Harlem Shake.

Looking like we're going to see construction labor slashed soon. While laying off record numbers of federal employees. While Fortune 500 CEOs itch for their own internal DOGE. While new capital projects stall out with high rates. While Big Tech works 24/7 on their new labor replacement tech.

Every day finite allotted political capital and goodwill is spent before our eyes by a new administration. What lasting legacy/policy is it being spent on currently? Looks like another round of GOP tax cuts and breaking up the post war coalition.

Alone Australia has the most compelling people Ive ever seen on reality TV. Probably because that format of show isn't going to draw the type of contestants who just want to be pseudo famous, and US productions have probably scraped the bottom of the barrel of reality TV contestant pool a decade ago

Underdiscussed takeaway from DOGE. For decades conservatives have talked themselves into believing there were trillions and trillions of fraud and waste by the federal government that would be obvious if bought under real scrutiny. DOGE has been Geraldo Rivera opening Al Capone's vault at scale.

The truly laughable thing about JD Vance is everyone knows he's going attempt to walk back all this Vice Signaling in a few years when Trump goes back out of favor, and it's going to be done in the most awkward mealy mouthed way.

Feel like I'm just now coming to terms with how post apocalyptic my childhood environment was and how it may have shaped me.

We haven't come to terms with how much 2000s Reality TV has shaped our world, and conservative politics in particular.

I love to aimlessly wander and travel, and I live next to a marina, but I don't get the appeal of long distance sailing. You just like ... stew in the heat in a solitary confinement floating fiberglass box and try to fight off sea sickness all day?

It's not just that social media is saturated in bots and AI slop to drive engagement revenue, it's that the humans are becoming indistinguishable from them.

The problem with the engineers’ fantasy of iterating new political forms is that we already iterated, for millennia, and we already know where the bugs are.
