I don’t get why those people don’t just become republicans. If you get such a thrill about Trump owning the leftists then go buy a MAGA hat and bumper stickers and have a good time

I don’t wanna tell anyone to stop spreading a meme that makes them laugh but plenty of people do argue that it’s effective political messaging bsky.app/profile/mtsw...

He’d be 100% better off just calling him “Elon’s bitch”

So Biden, who chose to arm their “war” effort unconditionally, was in on the conspiracy to elect Trump according to your theory

Not always a fan of his but definitely give him an A for effort. Seems like he actually has a sense of urgency when a lot of his colleagues don’t

Yeah in 2003 people would’ve been hyped about a 106-104 game. It’s not special when teams are scoring that every game, especially when your enforcing rules in a way that encourages flopping

Dems don’t need to win over the “cult members,” they need to win over non voters and swing voters.
The other problem with the egg price thing is that I assume the price is pretty likely to fall in the next couple years, no credit to trump but he’ll surely try to take it. Waste of time imo

Exactly, you can attack this from plenty of angles. The fact that it’s like 6 dweebs in their teens and early twenties is extra insulting

I don’t believe in any rule of thumb that prevents democrats from calling out such a massive threat to governance. There will always be a chunk of the population that can’t be persuaded. Imo that’s not a good reason to downplay the current situation by talking about eggs

“Your social security payments are threatened by this” is a clear concise message

I’ve heard a lot of justifications for Israel bombing refugee camps, hospitals and universities, and I don’t find any of it compelling. You made your point that you think anyone not from the Middle East cannot have an opinion on this so I think you should go lecture some other people about that
comment in response to

Doubt you disagree with that, you’re just throwing a fit about people using the word genocide to describe what Israel’s doing

You lied about people “just starting to pay attention to the Middle East” so now you’ve changed your complaint to “not from the Middle East.” It’s true, I’m not from the area. I’m also not from eastern Europe, but I’m entitled to have an opinion on US foreign policy towards Russia/Ukraine

Yeah this is the first time Atrios has ever paid attention to the Middle East. You’re an imbecile

So he instructed them to confirm Scott Bessent, who is currently assisting Musk’s coup of the Treasury. Awesome work 👍

Great communicator, didn’t offend any part of the coalition, and had an already impressive track record in politics. Yet now the usual centrist morons are trying to rewrite history and say the pick was made purely on ID politics grounds, and he somehow was a factor in dems losing (despite the data)

Great example of this is comedian Sam Hyde and his fanbase

He’s also very internet brained and the way people express their nazism on the internet is by pretending they’re being ironic

“It still has potential to be a very real thing.” Wow does that inspire confidence, 2 months after this “agency” was announced

Also, consider how cynical it is that they can take one second to limit specific users, and they only use this to target profitable bettors. They have all the tools imaginable to identify addicts, but they want those guys to bet as much as they feel like
comment in response to

A key part of the business model of most books is to kick sharp bettors off the platform. They typically limit them (reduce their allowed bet size to pennies) rather than outright ban. The premise of their commercials is a big lie, being a consistent “winner” is against their rules!

It’d be nice if big tech’s pitch for ai was “This can make boring tasks easier and lead to some advancements in science.” Rather than, “We’re in an existential race with China for this technology that will replace human thinking and has a 10% chance of ending the world”

On your last paragraph - what do you think Palestine protesters should’ve done to accomplish their aim of an arms embargo on Israel?
NYT reported over a year ago the WH was seeking to end the conflict by Jan 2024. Seems reasonable that the people in charge were the target of their activism

I remember nearly a year ago when Dave attempted to justify the genocide (it’s so complex!) got a lot of pushback, and now generally shuts up about it

Speaking of NBA franchises hating their fans, this story about the Hornets pretending to give a kid a PS5 and then taking it away is pretty crazy sports.yahoo.com/hornets-apol...

I’m aware that Trump won’t be an improvement. Im wondering why you assumed I had the opposite POV. That’s what I’m pointing out - this reflex people have to mischaracterize anyone who criticizes Biden as somehow supporting Trump’s policies. It only serves to shut down the conversation
comment in response to

Every criticism of Biden has to be followed up with “Trump is even worse!!!” Those are the rules

Why is he even doing this? To get some constituents off his back? And then what’s his plan when the DHS doesn’t have a satisfactory answer for the conspiracy crowd?

Do you think Tyler believes that the only working class worth acknowledging is white?

Yeah I have no regrets about reading him during Obama’s presidency. Around 2016 he decided to stop writing anything interesting and dedicate 100% of his time to talking about how liberals are hypocrites
