Truly your bravest and most controversial take. Too controversial, I’m afraid. Mods, send this man to El Salvador. This extrajudicial rendition is brought to you by DRAFTKINGS (tm)
taking over the Democratic party and wearing it like a skin suit is still a more viable option than starting a third party under these legal and political circumstances and you are doing a disservice to yourself and your audience if you suggest otherwise
I cannot overstate how bad of a look it is for an official Democratic Party leadership organization to overturn election results to boot a young person who thinks the party needs a new generation of leaders.
If we can’t work within the party, maybe we don’t need to be part of it.
An anti-market, protectionist, Russophilic party has the same name as the party of Reagan. US politics shifts from couping major parties. This is a ratfuck for sure, but a new vice chair is not gonna save these people from the voter backlash a 20% approval rating will bring them in primaries.

I know I’m beating a dead horse on this lately, but pundits and consultants who argue for this stuff are actually just arguing that politicians should cater to the views that *they* hold, which they believe are uniquely reasonable and universal. Actual swing voters have mostly incoherent politics!
They use the term median because it’s a single data point, namely, them. They sit somewhere between fascism and not fascism and believe that’s the norm when anyone who’s worked trying to aggregate large datasets will tell you that it’s a lot of fusing wildly disparate data.

It’s remarkable the NYT, infamous for its absent coverage of the Holocaust still hasn’t stooped as low as they have today. 1938 headlines with today’s standards would say “Lindberg has a point in seeking alliance with Hitler? FDR says he’s a monster but that nerd is in a wheelchair so who cares”

Matt simply does not believe that’s occurring. He’s able to hold onto this belief because his friends in his chats say they’re not attacking democracy, and who are you gonna believe, them or your lyin eyes?
i find matt’s bit to be incredibly tiresome

The downfall of the worst dictator currently living was the work of almost 2 decades and millions of people (mostly) putting aside centuries of ethnic & religious animus to join to fight for a better future while the world mostly ignored their pleas for help. Oh they also helped take down ISIS.

We live in an unsubtle time. I swear, having a reality TV show host as president has generally made us behave more like media caricatures of ourselves.
