Yeah, I figured somebody would say that.

The evidence contradicts you.

The swing state exit polls indicate that the economy was most people's primary issue and that Gaza didn't even factor.

I wish it weren't true, but Americans are not moral people who vote for humanitarian foreign policy.

Well this is useful to remember. Don’t think I’ve forgotten about the inexplicably pro-Russian leftists.

Well this year's been an interesting year when it comes to male characters and positive masculinity: aka men who are able to have space for compassion and empathy, and who helps others not because they expect to get anything out of it, but because it's simply the right thing to do.

Anything sounds silly when boiled down to a four word summary.

But when "the price of eggs" actually means housing, gas, school, healthcare, groceries, stagnant wages, prices still inflated from the pandemic...

"It's the economy, stupid" has always been the better phrasing.

Yeah, its SO over the top and *insane* that they made those plans *public*, they were *proud* of them... that folks on both sides of the aisle were able to think it must just be a made up scare tactic.

It's so cartoonishly evil.

Also, can we just mention all the various times the Democrats (or at least the majority of them) held the line and didn’t cave at all whatsoever? Or is that too inconvenient for some people?

And on top of everything else, the R's went SO cartoonishly evil it's... easier to brush off?

Because.... "They have a 900 page playbook of literal Nazi plans they made public" just sounds... insane? That has to be made up? Why investigate or believe something that crazy? Can't possibly be true.

Yeah, some of them are all in for the horrors... but MOST people when shown children being pulled away from their mother say "that's bad!"

They also don't get that the first 2-3 years of a presidency are economy inherited from the previous guy.

Similarly, folks that say EVERY SINGLE PERSON that voted Trump is an evil amoral monster that wanted all the bad things.

77 million voters and 90 million non-voters just weren't paying attention. They really WERE concerned about the price of eggs, that's not a smokescreen for "bwa ha ha racism!"

"The people are never going to forgive Dems for caving, and are going to remember that for 2026!"

..., are they? Not to say you're not allowed to criticize them, but otherwise I would remind people social media is not representative of everyone in the US.

Saw The Running Man 2025. I’ve seen the Arnie movie, never read the book.

First off, add it to the pile of inexplicably yet another movie that speaks well to the Political Moment of Now. Powell’s a powerhouse, Brolin and Domingo chewing the scenery like they owed each other money.

The subsidies were lost the moment voters decided Harris didn't earn their votes.

They by extension decided those subsidies weren't worth saving.

Because they were always set to expire on January 1, 2026. This was a hail mary by Dems to save voters from themselves.

Again.

Anyways, Predator: Badlands.

Story's pretty simple (stoic hunter-warrior discovers compassion and companionship is Awesome, Actually), but manages to make it sing through the lens of Predator's visceral brutality that still manages to shine through in spite of the PG13 rating. Check it out!

There’s no evidence to suggest Harris/Biden lost over Gaza.

I mean, yeah? If Harris had won we'd very likely not be in this situation.
November 11, 2025 at 3:07 AM
Yeah? If that's the case, why hasn't there been a news leak saying that's what happened, versus when we did have a leak back in March of him actually doing that for the budget framework?
If you believe it was just 8 senators I have a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you. This was a Schumer operation.

Gonna generally remind people who are thumping “Primary, NOW!”: you can’t be reliant on just pressuring moderate Dem politicians. You need to also pressure moderate voters as well. Don’t pretend they aren’t there.

The pro-Palestine group Within Our Lifetime has already decided that Zohran Mamdani has sold out the pro-Palestine cause... by condemning swastikas drawn on a Jewish day school in Brooklyn. forward.com/culture/7822...
Mamdani's first statement on antisemitism as mayor-elect got some weird pushback
After someone spraypainted a swastika on a yeshiva, Zohran Mamdani condemned antisemitism. Somehow, this generated conspiracy theories.

Iunno, when people stop overwhelmingly showing up to sequels, remakes, and adaptations?
November 6, 2025 at 5:21 AM
Still, would caution people to not assume what Mamdani achieved to be reproduceable everywhere else. It only happened ‘cause the other candidates were just that terrible, and NYers were already fed up with corrupt centrist Dems.

AKA: don’t assume a DemSoc Texas governor by 2026/28 is inevitable.
