you really can't underestimate how little voters understood what they were voting for in 2024
70-something rural voter I talked to this evening in the general store in the town of 50 people where I live:
"We shouldn't be sending money to all these people overseas who hate us, but it's ridiculous to cut staff at our park. It's the lifeblood of our community. You need more people, not less!"
"We shouldn't be sending money to all these people overseas who hate us, but it's ridiculous to cut staff at our park. It's the lifeblood of our community. You need more people, not less!"
“People voted for Trump based on their recall of the 2017-2020 economy—stimmy and superdole included—and simply did not encounter and/or believe reporting about his plans to be a dictator” fits the available facts much better than “a plurality of Americans voted for Trump to be a dictator.”

it's incredible how evangelicalism seems to be evolving into a new religion that has basically little to do with the actual Bible
every time a Nazi shows up with this slogan (or a NRA gun-fetishist), just remind them what Jesus said:
"If anyone comes to me and does not hate father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters—yes, even their own life—such a person cannot be my disciple."
"If anyone comes to me and does not hate father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters—yes, even their own life—such a person cannot be my disciple."

Democrats will often look at something that doesn’t poll well and think “oh no, better move away from that!” but they’re getting their role backwards. parties influence public opinion. if you’re purely reactive, you’re just letting the GOP frame every debate.
the lesson of the election isn’t “we should give up on trans rights,” it’s that the GOP took an issue that negatively impacted almost no one and made it a headliner. why would it help to surrender on an issue if they can create a grievance from thin air?

seeing the return one of the most annoying features of the Trump era, where he at various points trips over his own dick and many people jump in to insist that it’s all part of his carefully constructed master plan

BlueSky is filling a void that 35+ up been looking for. Social media should be a cool distraction. Not stressful and annoying. Folks wanna laugh and have healthy banter and wit and sarcasm. A feeling of community. Not all these bots and ads and weird ass algorithms and engagement farming

Since 2020 I’ve increasingly felt like we’re in a digital dark ages, where illiteracy is skyrocketing, people believe in magic, disease is rampant, oligarchs rule, and it’s all facilitated by ultra modern technology that has evolved to reinforce it
