People keep asking me, and I haven’t really had an answer, but now yeah, I’m thinking I’m back.
We’re gonna have to get used to constantly fighting this battle. Fascists don’t get exhausted, they never rest. They have an unnatural, compulsive desire to crowbar themselves into everybody’s life. Hell, they’ll settle for anybody’s life.
They’ll literally settle for shouting on street corners like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rJriMuVEPMY
I question whether people who say that shit are even arguing in good faith.
They never do. Anyone devaluing the best politicians we have on our side, is really only carrying water for fascists.
15 genocides vs 16 genocides
A false dichotomy, but even so, the math is simple. 15 is less than 16. Bad things WILL happen. Let’s try to stop at least SOME of them shall we?
And demographically, the biggest swing towards Trump was Latino men. It was like 18%, that seems insane to me. I don’t think “eggs and Palestine” is sufficient to explain what happened there.
Not sure I read your comment right, but are you saying. That Tim Walz’s and AOC’s support for Israel is the single-issue that’s stopping Democrats - or at the very least Walz/AOC - from winning elections?
I mean, if it were that easy…
I’m with you. Believe me, nothing would make me happier than being wrong.
I kind of see where you’re coming from - there’s an imperfect fungibility of bigotry. If you’re bigoted against one kind of person, it’s not hard to make you bigoted against another, it just takes a little propaganda.
But it’s not a secret that young men broke for Trump by over 10%. I attribute that swing to the manosphere podcast circuit working round the clock this past election, and Elon Musk purchasing voters with his “sweepstakes.”
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_United_States_presidential_election#Exit_poll
2020, Biden: 81,283,501 2020, Trump: 74,223,975
2024, Harris: 75,017,613 2024, Trump: 77,302,580
These numbers suggest that not only did more people vote for Trump than in 2020, even after living through the fucked COVID response, even after seeing January 6, more people chose not to vote at all. And it’s a 50/50 split: Trump converted 3 million votes from Biden, and 3 million more just stayed home.
American people are turning away from the establishment in its entirety.
Biden won 2020, and I think it’s safe to say he was fairly establishment.
Edit: And as much as we want to forget, Trump was President of the United States from 2016 to 2020. He IS an establishment candidate. He wants the establishment of an authoritarian fascist regime that unlawfully, violently silences his critics and imprisons or murders the minority group of his choosing.
Call me what you like, but I think you have more in common with me than with MAGA. And if your IFF is malfunctioning, well, I hope you get it checked out soon.
I want AOC to be President, but I think Americans are too sexist to vote for her. We’re a callow, superficial people.
I’m gonna get serious flak for saying this, but “the Irish aren’t white.” Not to MAGA. Neither are the Italians, nor the Greeks, nor the Polish. The Brits are out, we overthrew them in 1776. We beat the Germans in 1945, and the Ruskies in 1992.
You’re Catholic? You’re not welcome. You live north of Richmond? Northern Aggressor. You live in one of the 21 states with a coastline? Coastal Elitist.
It’s not “being white isn’t enough anymore,” it’s “nothing is white enough anymore.” They will find any part of your identity to discredit and ruin. And if they can’t, they’ll make one up, until they finally consume themselves.
Get ready for the Coastal Elitist North Aggressors of Colorado, the Johnsons.
God bless you Canada

That’s not the thing that surprises me anymore. I’ve now long been convinced that 45 out of every 100 Americans are enormous sacks of shit, always have been, and always will be. Even if you say, well at least 1 of those 45 will finally kick the bucket, an indoctrinated child will just take their place.
The thing that surprises me is that these articles keep coming out trying to show this off and say “look, he keeps losing support from all of his terrible policies, you’re not alone in thinking this is insanity.”
But that 45% has not changed in the last FIVE YEARS. This isn’t news anymore, and it hasn’t been for a very long time. Who at NBC thinks this is convincing or comforting to anyone, at least anyone who gets their news from NBC? That’s what surprises me, how slow and how unconvincing the media has been acting for the last 10 years.
Thank you for being a regularly positive user. Seriously, it’s hard enough to find some appreciation these days, may as well show my own. :)
Wow that was a lot of bullshit I’m not gonna read. Hope you spent a lot of your precious time on earth to write it.
I mean I enjoy CS2 as well but I can’t deny it had pretty major performance problems. It’s gotten better over time but launch day was a disaster.

This waste of space owes existence itself an apology.
Tankie dweeb.
