And somehow this doll is STILL more likely than the real Doug to actually reply to my emails BEGGING them to just release a fucking apology statement already so we can all move on!
Talking NC phrases include:
"I'm fundraising a game show--what can go wrong?"
"No, you can't plug your Patreon."
"What is up, my n***as!"
"Ooh, a cinnamon roll!"
"Your secret's safe with us, Justin."
"It's really a love letter to Pink Floyd!"
"We sincerely regret you feel that way."

Serious question: This narrative of yours, and of many leftists, that threatening to withhold votes is an effective method of pushing Democrat candidates leftward...
...Is it, though? Has that literally EVER actually worked? Can you point to ONE instance of it working?

It's the Primaries. There's still "shopping" to be done before the car in this terrible metaphor is locked in. Threatening to not vote is some of the only ammo available to put a fire under potential candidates' asses, and it has to seem credible.

Funnily enough this is something Wake Up Dead Man touches on: a once popular sci-fi novelist’s output goes completely to pot when he leaves the “liberal hive mind” and embraces an ultra-reactionary brand of Christianity, with only people he despises remaining fans of his new work.
like, off the top of my head, i can think of very few artists who went reactionary and then turned out work equal to or better than work they had done previously. i am not sure I can think of *any*, though i am sure there are a few.

I think it is worth considering how much social media has a vested interest in making it LOOK, to leftists, as though the Democrats have "dogshit messaging" despite ample evidence to the contrary. The purpose is to harm, as you call it, the only mechanism in place to fight Republicans.
Functionally, the only mechanism in place to fight Republicans is the Democrats. That's why the leftists are furious whenever Democrats have dogshit messaging or switch sides. You're complaining about Leftists complaining about Liberals, what the fuck is any of this supposed to accomplish?

I still think TROS is (slightly) better than Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones because at least TROS has decent execution of its very stupid ideas, but yeah, it's easily the worst Star Wars movie that isn't a prequel.
I feel comfortable saying Rise of Skywalker was the worst Star Wars because it is the only one I genuinely do not remember enough of it to offer a coherent explanation of the plot. I think a knife and Poe’s ex-wife were somehow involved.
I feel like the harshest condemnation I can offer Episode IX right now is the honest one. I have no idea who Pryde is or indeed if I simply forgot them or if they were fabricated on the internet right now

I am on my knees BEGGING just one leftist on this fucking site to grasp the difference between voting and shopping. Seriously. Just one. bsky.app/profile/mark...
imagine going to a car dealership with a T-shirt that said “I’m going to buy a car no matter what today.” this is exactly how you get swindled. this is how you get a snake like Fetterman in power, out of desperation. you will never force the Democrats to change if you don’t put pressure on them.

Okay I’m just gonna say it. I think some of the confusion here might come because people are too politically unaware to realize the distinction between primary and general elections

Spanberger and Mamdani are really good “better things are possible” templates for both wings of the Democratic Party
Spanberger: code as moderate while retaining left support, then govern ruthlessly
Mamdani: code leftist, but have a Carney-esque ability to drop unpopular leftist positions

Nobody is treating Newsom as inevitable except left wing influencers who feed off trans people's fear and despair.
They are the left wing, secular equivalent of televangelists.

Every leftist concerned with Cuba right now really ought to keep in mind Kamala Harris would neither have kidnapped Maduro nor be throttling Cuba to death right now, were she President.
If you abstained because she "wasn't perfect", congratulations. You should've thought of this before not voting.

Biden was one of the most progressive POTUS we’ve had since FDR or LBJ.
Ppl should go read the stuff in his original Build Back Better plan. All of it didn’t become law but it had Bernie Sanders full support.
None of that was enough for Online Left tho. Which is why I don’t take them seriously
