I think Minneapolitans gravitate to this kind of analysis because it inoculates them from their cognitive dissonance, easy to blame the far left, but having Fateh as an option did not force anyone back in the arms of Frey.

basically every 2024 truism is dead. Trump did not build a lasting multiracial coalition or turn young men into committed Republicans. You don’t need to cave on trans rights to win. The pundits have nothing left to tell you.

2021 was the year Jacob Frey learned the secret to his political success wouldn't be acquiring love or respect, it would be implementing the strategies contained in the classic thread: "Reddit, what's the best way to blame your farts on someone else?"

MLK's Letter from Birmingham Jail was essentially written to Elizabeth Shaffer.
"Shallow understanding from people of good will is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will. Lukewarm acceptance is much more bewildering than outright rejection."
"Shallow understanding from people of good will is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will. Lukewarm acceptance is much more bewildering than outright rejection."
Shaffer on standing up to Trump: if there's a "Martin Luther Jr kind of non violent protest that begins I will be on the front lines."

The moderates of this city really want to deliver a Republican legislature next year. And corporate democrats are giving them the lay up.
It won’t hurt progressives. But it will hurt the top of the ticket next year.

Former KARE-11 anchor Rick Kupchella won’t say who paid for the film that paints a dark picture of Minneapolis and progressive City Council members, who dispute policies the film ascribes to them.

the actual story here, which the media never talks about, is that police in this country have become a discrete right-wing political operation. the story isn't about cops leaving (they're lying about that), it's about the police trying to exert influence over elections.

It’s really that easy.
You can’t outsmart ranked choice voting. People think you can, but you can’t.
I see two versions of wrong thinking about RCV. The first is people just refusing to rank multiple people, and the second looks like this.

The worst part is, we all know this is preventable. Decades of politicians caring more about people being able to own guns than the safety of kids made it so anyone can go around doing this. We can look to any other country in the world and see the solution, our leaders just don’t have the will.
