Sometimes publications change the hed on internet articles post publication. I suspect that’s what happened here.
Yup, which is why I always give folks time to change it instead of kneejerk pulling it.
Titles of articles are not written by the article writer, for some reason. They often change.
a/b testing
That feels gross.
Welcome to the internet! Have a look around…
I know, right? So I read this article on gooners the other day… I don’t know why. It was just as gutwrenching as I expected…
Even before the 'net, it’s my understanding that titles were not written by the authors of the articles. Obviously, they didn’t later change in print, though. :)
Not just that…
JD Vance’s brother lost Mayor of Cincinnati to Aftab Karma Singh Pureval.
You just know that one pisses off the white house.
As long as he can bail out La-Z-Boy, he’ll be ok.
Hm… it’s almost like if you want change, you need to vote. Sitting out or spoiling your vote doesn’t do much more than literally nothing.
Who knew? Apparently all it needed was a little pain and chaos, the loss of healthcare, snap, LGBT rights, a felon in the Whitehouse ignoring congress and the judiciary, a stacked supreme court, a govt shutdown, unemployment. Inflation, high grocery prices, extrajudiciary assassinations of foreign nationals, coercion of foreign policy, open interference in another countrys elections, censorship of the media, restarting of nuclear tests, literal demolition of parts of the office of the executive branch, …
But I’m sure all of that was only a distraction from what was really happening.
Now, where are those Epstein files?
Hm… it’s almost like if you want change, you need to vote. Sitting out or spoiling your vote doesn’t do much more than literally nothing.
I’ll never get over these type of comments in political communities…
It’s like going to a baseball game in person and complaining that broadcast viewership numbers are down…
We’re not the “casual market” absolutely no one who needs to be told that is here or will ever see those comments.
But we’re the ones voting in primaries, we’re supposed to be picking the candidate most likely to represent the will of the Dem voter base… We’re more GMs than hardcore fans.
As a whole, the politically active members of the Dem party who vote in primaries have not been making good enough selections to convince the “casuals” to vote in the general.
Shitting on absentee people who can’t defend themselves may feel good, but why wouldn’t we use these spaces to talk about what works?
Which in this case is increasing Dem primary turnout as much as possible to ensure candidates like Mamdani keep making it to the general…
Who knew that when trustworthy politicians with real change proposal participate the turnout increase. Which most countries lack right now
One candidate is clearly corrupt, serving only the oligarchs and foreign genocidal nations. People stay home.
One candidate clearly shows he is listening and cares about his voters. People show up to vote.
This is great, and we should definitely all be happy. It’s a positive sign.
That said, this will merely cement in MAGA’s mind that the only path left for them is consolidating power, and FAST, as they will never win fair midterms.
Don’t fool yourself - they know their goose is cooked as soon as they lose power. So you’re going to see an acceleration because of today’s elections, not a come to Jesus moment for MAGA.
Absolutely. They still have more temper tantrums left in them. And it will get worse before it gets better. I hope to live long enough to at least see universal healthcare.
My deeply red town voted in all dems for positions of power. I’ve never been more surprised.
Whoa which state? Thats nuts!! Read my comment on this post too Ohio and Florida are both jumping ship too
Wonder what other states will as well
Pennsylvania. My town is specifically in a rural part of SW PA.
Looks like my entire county flipped!
I’m hopeful for the first time in a looooong time.
Keep up your hope mate we got this!!
Read goodgoodgood.co article talking about a Study on Hope that was done couple months ago. Most important thing to have
Also get active!! And get more Pennsylvania people active too. Every state is actively getting more people doing consistently
It’s a whole movement wherever you look online. Try to join clmmunities in-person amd online and roll on forward
Together we can all do anything!!!
I’ve been making plans to go out and help the cause. It’s been hard because I’m barely surviving with the income I make and my health has been pretty bad. I do remind everyone I know to vote and I provide information on things to those people so they can make informed decisions. I’m going to look into online stuff that I can do to help and I’m going to the next No Kings thing
Ask everyone you know and are getting to know for work. I’m very certain multiple people will be willing to offer a job that pays better. You got this! Referrals are biggest thing to help get better paying work quick. Be personable and so many doors open. Keep going you will get better!!
Try to push for No Kings in your areas to help with making national daily protests a reality sometimes. Take breaks for your health amd enjoy life as much as you can
I’d say focus more on your health and income to be stable. Prefer that instead of everything else above that I said. I’ll encourage other Pennsylvania people and continue to get other people in current and neighboring states as well
I’m already looking for a better job. My current job is so goddamn toxic. It’s hard because the market for my kind of work is ABYSMAL. I have all of my friends asking their employers for things and I’m considering taking up an easy part time gig on weekends if I can get back in with the nonprofit I worked for in college
More News:
Cincinnati, Ohio all 9 city council seats and mayor election were won by Democrats
Miami, Florida democrat mayor candidate is in lead to win election as well
“You Winsome, and you lose some.”
-Spanberger’s missed opportunity during her victory speech
Winsome was such a terrible candidate
She’s a terrible human.
Spanberger is literally CIA
Alternatively, normal people just hate Trump & his lackeys because they are obviously trying to speed run the destruction of America.
You’re wrong. If that was the case, the other areas would show similar levels of apathy as 2024. Hate to break it to you, but run of the mill Dem candidates won in most of the other elections this time. IMO, it’s more likely that the pain is starting to compel the voters to the polls. All I have to say is finally. Just don’t drop the ball again.
