people will say shit like “no politician is perfect, you’re just choosing an adversary :^)” and then not behave in an adversarial way

Is there a way to mute posts that contain puns, just like as a concept?

I do think anti-car activists (who're right) wilfully ignore how much of a benefit cars provide. They're pretty great so we have to give people strong incentives to stop using them.

But man, car owners who think they're rugged individualists for liking those benefits are just clowns.

You’re allowed one day of celebrating that the democrats did something reasonably intelligent then you have to get back to bullying and public shaming so they don’t get complacent

Calling right-wingers weird is effective because they have spent the last... who knows how long... trying to be what they consider society's standard of "normal/traditional." It's the same reason dudes who consider themselves "one of the good guys" flip their lids when you call them creepy.

So much about our current political state can be explained by the fact that political reporters simply refuse to believe Republicans want to achieve their express policy goals

So many liberals are going to look at elected officials who they support applauding a genocidaire and not re-evaluate their support but instead contort themselves in knots explaining why this is actually a savvy and good thing and opposing them doing it means you want a unicorn.

If we're being serious here the first thing Kamala needs to do with this groundswell of liberal and moderate enthusiasm is to tamp it down and tack hard right on everything to court the votes of the people who hate her already and would never vote for her in a thousand years.

The Dems finally realizing that their message should be "fuck these weird freaks, they're freaks that are weird" might be the most better late than never thing that's ever happened

Here’s my thing, the right got free rein in the UK, Brexit happened, material conditions degraded to the point people are physically smaller now. And none of this spurred an ascendant leftist politics. Centrists in Labour accrued the benefit and are enacting conservative policies

Even putting aside how ghoulish this is, the proportion of people with step parents, children, or siblings that they love has got to be at least like 25%. This guy is a generational talent at alienating voters.
JD Vance can fuck off right into the son. Stepchildren are children. Blended families are families. Anyone who is from a blended family should be absolutely insulted and outraged by this.

And this is all in addition to the horrible misogyny of this. What a horrible and soulless human being.

I think Kamala Harris is a bad person and I also think she talks funny in a way I really enjoy and I will also vote for her for president of the United States. love her as a meme don't love her as a politician, and am trapped in a political system where this is just how it works I guess.

There is a small but vocal group of people who got a permanent groove worn into their brains by 2016 Bernie supporters being really good at making fun of people. This is why you see so many preemptive complaints about how the left is going to treat Harris.

Electric cars don't represent a meaningful solution to climate change, car centric planning, road safety, or congestion. But they are the most effective tool we have to stop people from voting based on gas prices and for that we should fight for universal adoption.

as a bernie former-bro let me just say, i am fully ready to put my immense powers of targeted harassment towards the task of supporting kamala harris. we need to make peace with the k-hive. not for political or ideological reasons but because it will be funny and piss of a certain kind of lib.

It’s funny to see people starting with the “oh you’re a LEFTIST and I bet you think Kamala is a COP” shit when the vast majority of posts from leftists on here have been “well this entire situation sucks but let’s do our best”. Quit trying to start the fight you doofuses

Just want to point out that the main political goal of Republicans right for the past five years is trying to convince you that their opponents are strange weirdos and now they’re doing it with Donald Trump and a guy who fucks furniture
I'm normally against kink-shaming, but I seriously think the Democrats should start calling J.D. Vance "the Couch Lover."

Every leftists I know: It should be Kamala today fuck it I don't like her but fuck it she can win against this old fascist bitch.

Every democrat with power: 16 round tournament, 3 wild card play-ins, cumulative points against total, winner determined on November 10th.
