This is the big takeaway, IMO.
I think it means Dem politicians and their consultants are projecting their own racial resentment onto the rest of us. It's why they only chase rural conservative votes. It's why they're foisting Nazi tattoo guy on us as Mr. Anti-Establishment.

The goal of Centrism is two parties of Republicans.

Let’s be clear: This has NOTHING to do with the shutdown. SNAP already has strict renewal rules and almost NO fraud.

Forcing millions to reapply is a deliberate effort to shrink the program and leave families hungry.

It’s bullshit. It’s cruel. And it’s indefensible.

i know we won't, but we have got to understand that a keystone of the republican project is to both categorize whole classes of people as criminal to justify locking them up, or to make them so broken and desperate that lawbreaking is all but certain to happen.

So is anyone ever going to ask these people what is wrong with being Palestinian? bsky.app/profile/atru...
After calling Schumer a "Palestinian," Leavitt refers to "Gavin Newscum." So she's just ripping off her boss's smears now.

When is the last time you had a Black guest on your show?
Ok so clearly some folks here are upset that I interviewed Graham Platner.

I think it’s important to explain what the Find Out Podcast is, and how we were born.

In short - our goal is to move men to the left. In order to do that - we have to welcome folks who have changed over time.

How much of the last decade is just all variations of White people refusing to learn, any lessons at all?

This quote might as well have come from Bernie Sanders.
Speaking at a Texas Tribune Festival on Friday, former U.S. Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg criticized the Democratic Party for failing to reach everyday Americans, arguing that it “got sucked in” to a conversation about identity. #TribFest25
Pete Buttigieg critiques Democrats for focus on identity
The former U.S. transportation secretary said the Democratic Party should focus more on issues gripping the country, such as health care and housing affordability.

1) If you just keep asking White guys about this, these are the answers you will keep getting. 2) Notice how he juxtaposes people who might be concerned with "identity" (i.e. POC, Women, LGBTQ+ folks, immigrants) with "everyday Americans". It's all about the social construction of the citizenry

JD Vance owns a company that buys American real estate and sells it to foreign investors. They specifically target Americans in crisis to buy their property for less than it is worth.
JD Vance: "A lot of young people are saying housing is way too expensive. Why is that? Because we flooded the country with 30 million illegal immigrants who were taking houses that ought by right go to American citizens."

Maligning basic, safe OTC medications that most people have to resort to, like acetaminophen and ibuprofen, is part of a larger scam to blame people for their health problems (or their children's health needs or problems), so that the administration can claim people don't deserve care or support.
JD Vance calls ibuprofen "useless medication" and implies it's not "necessary, safe and effective."

Every "population crisis" article in western media is just "WHERE ARE THE WHITE BABIES" in disguise and we absolutely do not have to give any credence to any of them

Yes. It's why they don't want to hear about the social construction of gender at all. Because if it's socially constructed...
More than anything else, powerful men - like the ones who run the NYT - believe in the legitimacy of power itself. Because if it isn’t legitimate, they have to start asking hard questions about the world and themselves.

This is a newspaper that published numerous stories about a 17 year old from Uganda checking a box on a college form that said “African American”
The emails that you’re seeing now are news in themselves, but that’s because of how they’re coming out—a congressional committee released them—& the context in which they’re being viewed. A guy emailing a reporter talking about old girlfriends or saying someone is “dirty” is not a whole news story.

Kind of minor but telling that he perceives the frontrunners as 4 white guys!
Schumer reached out to leading presidential contenders to try and mute criticism of the deal, calling Josh Shapiro, Andy Beshear, JB Pritzker, and Gavin Newsom.

While Schumer voted against it, the eight Dems behind the shutdown deal said the minority leader was aware of their plan. trib.al/lcNlGik

it is so difficult to get people to see institutions they have been a part of negatively
As a former member of NYT’s finance team & the co-author of this story exposing the relationship between Epstein & Bill Gates as well as one on Epstein & JPMorgan, I am really frustrated to see people claiming that NYT sat on publishable info about Trump and Epstein 🧵 www.nytimes.com/2019/10/12/b...

I know the OP knows this but yes the private/public false dichotomy just reinforces patriarchy. Makes it harder to account for abuse, reinforces the feminization of poverty, etc.
The idea that sexual abuse is part of “private” life instead of a public crisis has done incalculable damage. Anti-rape activists have to fight to even make it possible to expose sexual abuse as a wrongdoing in public without being silenced and undermined. That fight is far from won

If the Biden administration had sent federal agents to do a law enforcement operation 10X milder in a white suburban neighborhood in order to apprehend a serial pedophile and violent domestic abuser who happened to be a white Christian pastor, the MAGA crew would have reduced the country to rubble.
NEW: @propublica.org investigated the Chicago apartment raid where kids were zip-tied and citizens detained for hours. They find:

- NONE of the arrested were criminally charged
- NO evidence the building was "filled with TdA terrorists."
- ZERO legitimate reason for DHS to rappel from a Blackhawk.
