That’s a nice argument, why don’t you back it up with a source?

Musk’s true political ideology is whatever makes him the most money at the time

I should’ve made it clear, but I mean really far left in the context of America’s overton window, not for me personally. DSA would be considered really far left in American politics and thus would be probably be considered way too radical in states where Democrats don’t already dominate in. Though tbh Abdul El-Sayed isn’t technically a DSA member, so maybe he wasn’t a good example. However, it seems like the article I was replying to is implying that we should be pushing out more radically left wing candidates, thus why I said “really far left”

AIPAC is used by the far right to argue that the jews control America as a puppet state. Some of the more insane leftists (e.g. BadEmpanada) believe the same thing but uses the term “Zionist” as a dog whistle. So, it’s understandable that you would dismiss it’s existence as a conspiracy theory

Fighting against the Democratic party? Is Haley Stevens the entire democratic party now or something? Kamala Harris and Obama tried to help Abdul win after the primaries

In 2 years? No. Believe it or not, there is no “fix economy” button to press when Democrats get in office. We have to clean up the mess MAGA made first before we can begin to fix anything

It depends! Whenever it’s advantageous for it to be an attack, it’s an attack, but if not, then antifa did it but also it wasn’t that bad but also it was a peaceful protest. Do you understand now?

Maybe back then, but the Republican party has drifted so far right that a centrist today in America would have to be fascist-lite, no?

Even if I assume Trump is telling the truth, that’s what we need as a president! Someone who sarcastically says one thing and only reveal it as a joke later when the people get confused. Shout out to when Trump told everyone to inject themselves with bleach to cure COVID-19. Gee, I wonder why people take his words seriously, it’s not like he’s the most powerful man in the world and should make absolutely clear that something is joke if you’re going to make one

I mean, Abdul barely won so I wouldn’t say going really far left just automatically works either. If I grant that centrist just means liberal (which is left of center), I think what the midterms taught us is that it depends on the state since most of the candidates that won would be considered too far right by more progressive leaning people. In other words, the overton window is slightly different in each state, and thus some policies that would be considered moderate in New York would be considered radical in Mississippi

Yeah, and it’s unfortunately deserved. Why make any long term deals with America when someone unhinged could get elected and take a sledgehammer to everything anyway. It will take DECADES for America to regain the trust of the rest of the world

“A yes vote on I-194 means that only real people—not corporations, unions, trade associations, nonprofits, or groups with anonymous donors—are allowed to spend money in Montana elections,”

Wait, but that doesn’t stop CEOs and Billionaires from just donating personally? I suppose it will be more transparent this way at the very least though. Also, I’ll admit I’m pretty economically illiterate so I could simply just not understand, lol

As someone who used to clean the walmart bathrooms at one point, both of us are just as disgusting, smh

Those are some really woke fish. Based

I feel like if Trump tried to order that, even his cultists in the us army would refuse to risk the end of the world over losing in the midterms, but maybe even the little tiny faith I have in MAGA to not start a nuclear war for their daddy god emperor is too high. We’ll see I guess

Did impeaching Trump work in 2019 or in 2021 to crush his influence or power? I think I agree it’s a waste of time unless we could actually toss him out of office. Even then, I’d fear that JD Vance might take advantage of this by reversing all the obviously bad policies done by Trump thus winning himself political capital and then the narrative among normies is that it was only Trump that was the problem and not MAGA as a whole. That being said, if he does get impeached I’m not going to cry a river and dance on his grave with everyone else, I just think it might either be a waste of time that doesn’t do anything or at worst a political blunder if done too early. So yeah, I’m open to being wrong on this.

There’s just such an overload of news that many people in the mainstream forget. People should also be outraged that Trump deployed the national guard in several states and that ICE murdered people in Minnesota and also still does but has gotten better at hiding it. When everything has become insanity it’s hard to focus on everything that’s going on

Which is why I will make my current devices last forever and my current car

Finally, they made the QT6 preview the official one. Was getting annoying that I couldn’t just set it as my default myself without breaking Ubuntu Touch’s security. Now to wait for Lomiri Plus to update to Ubuntu Touch 24.04-2.1

Wait, Steven Crowder is still alive?
