“Kamala Harris was a DEI hire, progressives are both losers who have no support and fully control the Democratic Party, and everything is trans people’s fault.” - Jonathan Chait, giving his super unique and balanced take

Holy shit are you literally calling Kamala Harris a “DEI hire” in your article about how democrats lost because “they’re actually TOO liberal”?

Locked tf in

Some lines from Weiss’ article on the subject that I found particularly humorous

Obviously I don’t agree with his depiction of Kirk, but it’s still wild that we’re at a point where this fuckin guy is a voice of reason!

Ok I’ll bite. Who? Show me the facts I’m supposedly ignoring. And by the way, here’s some actual facts on political violence (which I’m sure you won’t ignore) (source: ccjs.umd.edu/feature/umd-...)

lol did you not even read your own “proof” all the way through? Also, one of those examples wasn’t from America, and google ai fucked up with the first example. If you click on the link, that teacher was actually fired BECAUSE they used a gender neutral pronoun. So you literally proved the opposite

lol you happy about who you’ve got on your side?

Obviously the one writing the laws would use the right terminology. Similarly, arguments like this picture don’t prove that banning certain types of weapons can’t be effective, just that gun manufacturers will always push for loopholes so the laws just have to be very specific about what is covered

This might not be what you meant, but I’m tired of hearing that because I don’t know all the specifics about a particular gun I’m not allowed to have an opinion. I’ll admit that I don’t know everything. Most people just want to start the conversation, and we can’t even do that

Love it when you get blocked for giving even the slightest bit of pushback. But then the same people will say “I don’t know a single person that disagrees with me”

I want you to know that I am trying to understand you, I’m not re-engaging to argue. I brought up Kamala’s possible failure to excite the base, and you countered by saying that the base is black women. I’m not here to argue that point, I just want to understand what point you were trying to make

I don’t think you read the whole thread, so I’m going to add my response from a different portion here for you. My point was only that the dem party excluded some voters by making them feel like their concerns weren’t valid.

“It is obvious to everyone involved that what the government is doing is illegal. Which is why, as a judge, it is my duty to throw my hands up and say ‘idk, maybe try asking someone else?’ “
