It's the end of the internet as we know it—and I feel fine
Maybe this was the last year of the usable web. If so, blame corporate greed.

Should Democrats move to the right? Absolutely not. That's morally wrong and bad politics.
The real lesson of 2024 is that Democrats must become an anti-establishment party ready to shake up the system on behalf of working people.

What?! Politicians actually having to speak with the plebs when they don't have to?? That will never do!
We also treat “the campaign” as if it’s something that occurs June-November. What the right knows and excels at is that the campaign exists every day, all year around. Dems need to do a better job of touting their legislative wins and bashing the gop for opposing popular bills that help real people.
The ironic thing about post election chatter is that a lot of the time it’s candidates who lost, underperformed, or underworked who have endless time to go on TV and share their blame story.
And for their part, journalists rarely EVER ask if that person actually ran a functionally solid campaign
