Idk, these Republicans calling out their own party for creating the shutdown could also... you know... leave the party?
This behavior isn't a bug, it's a feature. If you take exception to it, maybe consider leaving the party.

He is not a good human being in any way that such things are objectively measured.
And good people don't align with this, no matter what story they tell themselves.
Only bad people still support him.

Don't forget that Zohran Mamdani spent his entire campaign standing proudly beside the trans community. He went to trans rights rallies just to show support. He proudly waved trans rights flags without hesitation. He refused to back down in support of trans rights. That makes me happy.

The last month of the anti-Mamdani campaign was an absolutely shameful undertaking, an attempt to rip the city and Democratic coalition apart and I'm very happy to see it failed.

The time is now for the wokest motherfuckers in the country to rise up and primary the shit out of any Dem incumbents who won’t get in line with the new mandate. No position should be safe, from school boards to POTUS. Get out of our fucking way.

A lot of Very Serious People will be pretending to be confused about What This All Means as a way to avoid the simple inconvenient reality: Voters like it when candidates are kind sincere non-weirdos who are passionate about big popular ideas that will actually help real people.

Condolences are the default reaction for most human beings when it comes to death. If your death is met with a different reaction, you must have worked hard for that.
Being a decent person is a lot easier. I actually don't understand why people choose to be evil.

The "national fallout" is having to acknowledge that what they've been calling "far left" or even "socialism" is widely popular, and they will either have to adjust accordingly or be left behind.

They’re worried that people are going to find out that we’re supposed to want things from our politicians, even if our names aren’t Small Businesses.
As Mamdani nears victory, Democrats worry about national fallout
The progressive candidate is on the cusp of a historic mayoral win. And that's adding to unease among Democrats looking for a way back to national power.

The only people Jesus explicitly excluded from entering Heaven were the rich, yet I never hear y'all religious types telling rich people they're going to Hell, trying to take away their rights, etc.

I only block people I know if I truly feel I do not wish to keep you in my life anymore. This requires an irredeemable level of moral reprehensibility on your part.
If I block you, I believe you to be a truly evil, inhumane person. I block you to protect my peace.

People really saying "the protests did nothing".
That "dumping shit" AI video temper tantrum wouldn't have happened if we didn't strike a nerve. Like voting, a protest isn't everything but it's also not nothing.
