Bleeding heart just means that they’re too caring. As in, the type to give handouts and hug trees. But I haven’t heard that in forever. I think it’s been switched out for socialists.

Not sure if I agree on the other two. They are definitely coopted for political gain. But I don’t know that it changes the base term. When they say “woke mob”, I don’t hear an implication that it’s disingenuous.

Virtue signaling definitely applies though.

I do find it ironic that liberals (people who just want to live their lives and not impede on others, not the politicians) give the least amount of fucks. They don’t give a fuck if gays marry, but they also don’t give a fuck if they’re not allowed to (assuming it doesn’t impact them).

Even if it was, you’re allowed to be opposed to something in the constitution. That’s why we have amendments.

Well, he acknowledged reality and showed a video of Trump. You can’t do that.

Where did we land on antisemitism on campus? Didn’t people get fired for saying it was free speech as long as it didn’t become harassment or violent? Why was Kirk allowed on campuses with impunity?

Or was that only disallowed when they wanted to crush pro-palestine protests?

There’s always a $1 per month (for one year) Black Friday promotion for new Hulu accounts. We just flip between two accounts every year.

This last year they had the same promotion for Disney+.

In certain areas, it could be. For a solid blue or red state/area, the primary is going to be more important to winning. Giving people a reason to turn out will be disproportionately important in the primary due to the lower voter turnout.

Having said all that, she’s completely aware that people get weird about trans issues and the nation gets easily scared and defensive. She has made it a point (and has stated before) she is not a trans representative, she is a representative who is trans. She has also made it a point to not give anti-trans people fodder (eg. forcing her to use the wrong bathroom) to further target trans people.

Edit: For the record, I think this is a bad move. Charlie Kirk incited violence against many groups, especially trans people. His words certainly led to trans deaths. But I think this is a strategic move.

I’m in full support of primarying every Dem who supports this remembrance shit as well as any Dem who is pro-genocide.

However, I dont like the idea of singling out minorities for “betraying” their people over the rest of the members who do the same.

However, there is the obvious that part that people assume that people will represent people like them (trans, woman, Black, Muslim, Jewish, etc), which garnered them extra support.

I appreciate that. I’m just trying to be honest. And if anyone isn’t willing to go nuclear, they can still make changes. In my case, I cut out 95% of what I was giving to them.

I didn’t cancel my $1 per month Disney or Hulu subscriptions. But I did cancel my $40 ESPN + NFL+ subscription and made sure to put the reason why.

So, his racism, sexism, transphobia, fear-mongering, violent rhetoric is totally fine.

But saying you disagree with government overreach is unacceptable.

11 people murdered by the president.

Charlie inciting fear against the trans community while painting them as dangerous, while simultaneously minimizing the danger of guns in general. Just before being shot. Without a doubt, he is directly responsible for some violence against trans people.

Honestly, I appreciate his comments more about how gun deaths are acceptable. At least it’s honest. Also, on this link, a bunch of other racist, sexist shit that’s, again, honest to how he felt.

God damn, I fucking hate that you’re right.

Didn’t Trump say he was terrible at drawing? This actually lines up with that.

I’ll bet he saw the mockup and thought that was what was uncovered. His dumb monkey brain thought he was in the clear because they found a copycat.

Haven’t they removed their credentials in the past, not letting them into their building?

💯

If Newsom is running for 2028, I’m absolutely voting against him in the Primary. And if he wins, I’m absolutely voting for him over these totalitarian, anti-American, fascists.

The scary part of communism with a lot fewer steps.

I wondered this too. But Rogan is just first in followers. MeidasTouch was first in views. Also, this was only for YouTube, which according to the article is the top podcast service now, which is hard to believe considering WHY podcasts have taken over.

The data showed MeidasTouch amassed 124 million views in that period, with Rogan scooping the second spot with 39.2 million views.

I think it helps that MeidasTouch has much MUCH shorter episodes. Like, any of Rogan’s 3 hour videos counts as 1 view. Hours watched would probably be different.

On Spotify, the story is way different too. I guess that makes sense to my other point of why podcasts are popular. It’s a lot easier to just listen to an imbecile ramble in the background for 3 hours than to watch it.

On Spotify, however, Rogan remains king, taking the number one spot, while MeidasTouch secured the 73rd spot on the audio streaming company’s U.S. podcast charts.

Of course not. And I don’t support funding Israel while they’re committing genocide either.

My problem was with their rhetoric. It’s literally the justification people use to support genocide. My only point was be careful how far you go with that.

I condemned IDF’s genocide and Hamas’ terrorism. Killing babies is bad no matter who pulls the trigger. You’re the one making the justifications.

I absolutely don’t support it. What the IDF has done is horrific.

I’ve seen people justifying Hamas butchering people though, which is worrying.
