alright bluesky people talk about how you could never make an ad which makes midwestern wine moms support trans rights or whatever, but I'm convinced it's because the average democrat ad writer is too cowardly, and put as evidence this shitty ad script I wrote in ten minutes:

So let me be clear:
I will not support any candidate who has bulldozed homeless camps.
I will not support any candidate who is chummy with fascist influencers.
I will not support any candidate who is opposed to trans rights.
I will not support any candidate who thinks genocide is an acceptable evil.

WTF is going on with Bluesky? I've easily seen half a dozen posts trashing Kamala Harris from alleged progressives. Are the bots from Twitter never to be known as X invading us?

I've never heard anyone talk about South American philosophers, but that doesn't mean they don't exist, just that the structural racism of western society means that entire schools of thought are treated as less relevant and interesting than a random white guy who eats his own cat's poop

alright, chapter 1 of capital done, will make notes on it in a bit.

"Making a coat requires 10 yards of linen and the labor to produce the coat, and the coat costs as much as 20 yards of linen; therefore we can say that the total labor required to make 1 coat is equivalent to the total labor required to make 20 yards of linen, on grounds of the expense being equal."

yeah so to contextualize this joke I am finally getting around to reading capital and finding, much to my amusement that the first chapter is literally a treatise on pretty unremarkable accounting theory which happens to be using heterodox terminology
causing both marxist and mainstream economic theorists to burst into flames of pure rage by putting forward a theory of marxist accounting built upon the labor theory of expenses (that is, that all expenses are ultimately reducible to the cost of labor and value extracted from labor)

Such a key point. They don’t see themselves as having an ideology.
An ideology is something that belongs to the ‘groups.’ Dems see themselves as milquetoast, as run of the mill, as the center of the road, as the bearer of common sense and as blank slates. And how can you suppress ‘empty’?

The idea that they could be treated the same way as some random anarchist zine-maker isn't something that's really comprehensible to them, because they don't see themselves as having ideology which can be suppressed, really- and so they will not object to the suppression of dissenting thought.

if one party is fascist and the other party refuses to do anything about fascism then inevitably you're going to get fascists back in power because one party won't always win.

Because "Moderate" is code for "Conservative" and we're not interested in your Moderate Fascists.
The reason people are concerned about lefties saying “I won’t vote for a moderate Dem” isn’t because they want Newsom. It’s because lefties keep not voting for moderate Dems!
I think all the scolding about it being years til the primary would hit a little harder if WE DIDN’T JUST GO THROUGH THIS

This might seem a bit crazy to the average person who believes the US has free speech, but what you have to understand is that 'free speech' has been eroded over generations, and that anarchism in particular has been such a subject of state ire that they made the FBI to go after anarchists.

Demanding people give oaths of fealty is a form of purity testing, you dumbass.
every line is a red one for the purity ponies
You are one member of a larger coalition. That coalition has a process through which it decides who will lead it. “If you don’t decide to support my guy, I will leave the coalition” is behavior that will destroy the coalition, weaken yourself, and ultimately lead to worse outcomes than participating

The thing is, right, in principle the idea of blending 'outdoor' and 'indoor' spaces seems really cool, and I feel like setting a house up with like an internal courtyard 'living room' would be cool as hell... in abstract.
I'm not sure people would appreciate it much in practice, though.

Republicans are absolutely not afraid of losing their voters to a guy who agrees with them whenever he sits down to a 'debate' with them. Their voters will look at Gavin Newsom and go 'what a feckless and cowardly little man, he doesn't believe in anything' and continue to vote Republican.
Republicans also know it's just an opinion. Leftists are all talk. They never actually do any violence.
Republicans are not afraid of losing blood. They're afraid of losing voters. And that's why they're more afraid of people like Newsom.

We live in an era where access to the tools and resources to learn, to create, and to grow have been made hyper-available, for free, to anyone with an internet connection, which by necessity includes all members of the working class who now have access to 'generative AI' tools.
What do we think about the assertion in this meme? I know, we think it's asinine, but I'm looking for specific arguments as to why it's asinine.
