Omg seriously! I bet “DNC Party strategists” have told him to get rid of them to “appease the centrists”.

Jfc DNC. When are you going to fucking learn that we WANT progressives?!

I get what you’re going for but this would absolutely wreck privacy. And depending on how those signatures are created, someone could create a virtual camera that would sign images and then we would be back to square one.

I don’t have a better idea though.

Eh…Nixon was pretty petty. There is a direct line from Nixon to Trump.

And remember we got here because the conservatives of Nixon wanted to find a way to control what was truth.

It’s no accident that capital is aligned with fascist. Line must go up.

Startpage for the win!

The first time I heard about Trump Derangement Syndrome, I legit thought it meant MAGA. Like that’s how psychologists were describing people who have identified themselves so much with Trump that they were clinically deranged.

Then when I heard it was introduced by Republicans, I was really confused. Were they telling on themselves?

And then I read the bill.

It’s a fascist law.

Instead, these searches return a list of traditional web links.

“Oh…oh okay. So you know what that is. Why are unable to provide traditional web links for ALL my searches? Because, I’m gonna be honest with you Google. I never asked for you to ‘summarize’ my web results and the fact that you can turn it off at your discretion tells me that you could turn it off for everyone.”

Conservatives have and always have been the violence in this country

Ftfy

It’s because the right is desperate to throw off the well earned shade that they cause the vast majority of gun-related violence. It’s almost as if conservatives, who are obsessed on only have their world view validated through the the news, get violent when the world doesn’t agree with them.

I have no idea what this phrase means but immediately knew who you were talking about.

“When a measure becomes a target, it ceases to be a good measure.”

- Goodhart’s law

Because their playbook is literally “blame the outgroup”.

The guy was literally standing in front of eggs clearly priced at $2.99 and blamed Harris for being priced $4.

When caught on camera for lying, the guy says “I was told there wouldn’t be fact checking”, which was in it of itself a lie.

It’s almost as if someone figured out that conservatives, in an effort to feel the need to play the victim, will react negatively and thus be more engaged when presented with non-conforming news.

A sort of dissonance…that happens cognitively.

He said he’d provide the “deciding vote”, which I read as “Whatever Trump wants.”

I will eat my shoe if he votes to released it.

Tbf, and I wish this was more obvious to me back then, a lot of rank and file conservatives often need “marching instructions” like “what is the message we (conservatives) need to say about this incident?”

I didn’t realize I did this until something really confusing happened. I can’t remember what it was but I remember the deafening silence from Fox News and other “lead” conservatives.

I stayed a conservative until around Trump’s initial primary bid. When I realized that conservatives would rather vote this guy in over much more experienced politicians, I realized that their criticism of Obama not having enough experience was a bunch of bullshit.

Honestly, yes.

Iirc (it’s been some time), the justifications that Colbert gave for why conservatives actually believe certain things were unironically what conservatives believe.

I began to realize he was making fun of conservatives when the audience would laugh at places that didn’t make sense.

I watched it pretty regularly. It took longer than it should have for me to realize that it was a satire.

Maybe three seasons in?

I was a conservative when Colbert Report was on.

Can confirm. I believed he was a conservative.

I get what you’re saying but consider that her participation in the primary will energize progressives. If she really has the courage, immediately after the 2026 election she should announce that she’s forming a progressive party. Get people like Tim Waltz, Katie Porter, and others on board. But my guess they lack the numbers to really pull numbers away from the correct Democratic party.

That said, I could see a Waltz/AOC ticket being hugely popular.
