Almost like this viewpoint of complete political nihilism would never require you to provide any material improvements for anyone! Funny how that works
that's neat, but 99% of voters very demonstrably do not do this. they either vote for the same party they always vote for, or swing based on some bizarre, almost ineffable change in public mood
It's hard for you to understand peoples concern about food and the people who are elected to help them? Well when I'm insecure about my future medical coverage and my elected officials are partying with half dressed girls, I respond with my vote to dump them

in the US conservative mindset cishet conservative white men are top of the hierarchy and thus it is bad to shoot them, but also they are allowed to shoot people, so if one kills another it's just a wash. cancels out. thoughts and prayers, nothing to see here

I am becoming radicalized against White America, as a media and discursive force. Everything in the media works for a certain class of stupid, cultureless, violent suburban white American

Yeah so throwing dildos at women athletes on the court is an actual example of gender-based violence against women in sports—one that transphobes and acquiescent Dems will surely make 1000% less noise about

For the 1st time in my lifetime, a majority of Senate Dems have voted against sending weapons to that genocidal rogue regime massacring Palestinian children & terrorizing the region.
In a better world, this would be a unanimous vote held at least 21 months earlier. We can’t rest until it’s done!

By a vote of 27-17, Senate Democrats voted to stop sending arms shipments to a Netanyahu government which has waged a horrific, immoral and illegal war against the Palestinian people.
The tide is turning.
Americans don't want to spend billions to starve children in Gaza.

One of the most dangerous tropes in political media is how the only Jewish voices that matter are the most right-wing ones, hence the ease with which reporters assumed Jews are scared of Mamdani. (This is also how Jewish protestors were erased from the discourse about antisemitism on campuses.)
it’s almost like all the attacks calling Mamdani antisemitic were vapid bad faith bullshit created by politicians with no policy plan other than smashing the “scary muslim” button
Zohran Mamdani scores 17-point lead with Jewish voters in NYC mayoral race
Mamdani's support among Jewish voters comes after accusations from opponents and some community leaders that his criticism of Israel represents antisemitism.

i'm relieved to see some american leaders finally seeing reality but saying starvation is a bridge too far while drone striking schools and hospitals was not is just crazy
In a new statement, Sen. Angus King (I-Maine) says he's done supporting any aid to Israel amid Gaza's nutrition and humanitarian crisis.
"My litmus test will be simple: no aid of any kind as long as there are starving children in Gaza due to the action or inaction of the Israeli government.”

It is pretty noticeable that even as mainstream opinion on Israel and Gaza finally shifts, you don’t hear the Responsible Adults apologizing for punishing all the college kids protesting the atrocities. Quite the opposite in fact!
