An essential development over the past decade-plus is that the ignorant went from feeling chastened when their ignorance was revealed to banding together and deciding that, actually, they were right. They might disagree at times, but they agreed that ignorance itself was an indicator of trust.

The whole Make America Great movement claims to be nostalgic for the New Deal era in which Trump grew up, but they seek to undo the progressive taxation, labor-friendly policies, and robust welfare state (including social security, Medicare, investments in higher education) that lay at its core.

I think one of the defining things about our era and about conservativism, is an inability to distinguish between like, the actual government, and mid-level marketing managers at Target (who choose "happy holidays" to avoid leaving out non-Christian customers)
In retrospect the Bush-era War On Christmas stuff seems more ominous than it did at the time. It was just cable news guys crying about dumb/fake shit, then and now; I mean the campaign to turn Christmas, which most everyone likes and feels warmly about, into just another thing to get mad about.

Bill Clinton releasing a statement saying 'release the Epstein files, you cowards' was not on my bingo list.

especially in the dark hours we need to remember that we are going to win
Worth noting, I guess, that inside of a year we've gone from administration officials taking selfies of themselves at CECOT and bragging about how it's hell on earth to now getting their horrible little media worms to kill stories about it

“it’s reasonable to ask questions about trans girls in sports” was always intended to mainstream transphobia.

It’s absurd that people fell for it. Democrats are constantly letting oppressors set the terms of debate instead of just saying “no, fuck you.”

Dems are like "it's with a heavy heart that I voted to codify trans segregation, but it had to be done so Pete Hegseth can keep murdering fisherman in South America."

Once in a century political opportunity here, if only there were a party to claim it
"According to the…annual Harris Poll, for the 1st time, a majority of Americans believe billionaires are a threat to democracy. A remarkable 71% believe there should be a wealth tax. A majority believe there should be a cap on how much wealth a person can accumulate." www.nytimes.com/2025/12/14/o...

Democrats should attack republicans where they are strong, and continue attacking, so that when it comes to election season they are weaker across the board

your average Democratic voter thinks ICE is a bunch of vile thugs who deserve ostracism and public trials but the higher you climb the ranks of the party the less agreement you find with that entry-level liberal/left commitment and by the time you get to DC it's gone entirely

It is absolutely wrong to say that Israel's actions are the reason why there was an antisemitic terror attack against the Jewish community of Australia. And likewise, it is also absolutely wrong for the Israeli government to blame Australia's decision to recognize the state of Palestine.
Compare the statement about the antisemitic terror attack in Australia by the Israeli Prime Minister with the one by Zohran Mamdani, and ask yourself who more truly cares about condemning antisemitism, as opposed to using it to promote unrelated politics.

You don't have to blame antisemitism on the pronouncements of Zionists. You really don't. It doesn't make you seem politically attuned to the plight of Palestinians. It just makes Jews question whether you actually care about antisemitism at all outside of being labelled an antisemite.

The Overton Window has shifted incredibly far, far right during the last 20+ years and a huge part of that is allowing fascists to drive conversations that primarily begin and end with "things are too far left." They're not, nor have they ever been. But too few challenged this premise.

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque:
"This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".
