Mustard greens and kale.

I believe it was Martin O’mally who tried to get “Carnival Barker” to stick as an insult to Trump. It didn’t work. It made him look weak, foolish. Someone maladroit at using insults. Someone not actually willing to draw blood or do damage in a fight. This kind of petty, high browed insulation of an insult. Its for New York Magazine readers. Its for Third Way neoliberals who still want you to value their Ivy League education, even though its cost you any chance at a middle class life.

If Ossof wants to land a body blow, call Trump a child rapist; say into a microphone that Donald J. Trump rapes children and that his supporters support a pedophile. You can’t soft roll a fight. If you are going to go this way in tactics, you go fully. You can’t halfway do it. And it has to be in a way that shocks and embarrasses Trumps supporters. Not your own.

Like having the dumbest person you know tell you they aren’t going to call any more.

No. Shut the fuck up. Please don’t fucking run any fucking campaigns.

We’re actually turning the tide right now and its absolutely in no thanks to the kind of imbecilic, infantilizing fucking approach you are advocating for. We’re turning the tide because campaigns have largely rejected the kinds of politics you are advocating for because it keeps fucking losing. Its a fucking loser’s approach to campaigning.

The tide is turning because, like what should have happened in 2016, by focusing on policy; by focusing on making a material difference in peoples lives, we can actually motivate them to show up. If we go backwards to what you advocate for, we fucking continue to lose. Please stop advocating that we fucking lose.

Yeah and its a stupid fucking point. Its point which results in less understanding of how things work, not more.

A point which which should be thrown into the trash and disregarded in 2016, and instead, we’re still dealing with the world the manufacturers of that point have decided to create.

I mean are you making that as an argument to support this kind of campaigning? Like I seriously want to know because at face value, it seems like what you are saying.

And it doesn’t fucking work. What works to get Democratic voters to vote for a Democratic candidate is a different set of things than what works to get Republican voters to vote for a Republican candidate.

And not understanding the above, its why the Democratic party, in its “mainstream Democrat”, in its core identity: Its a party of fucking losers. Its a party of people who lose elections because they don’t actually want to have Democratic voters as voters. They wish they had Republicans for voters. They WORK to make their own voting base as vapid and stupid, and accepting of platitudes as Republican voters. Its why they campaign with the like of Liz-FUCKING-Cheney.

So yeah. I mean your response has some meaning, to be sure, but probably not what you intended.

This was the Hillary/ Pence approach in 2016. I’ve heard others being impressed with Ossoff. Can’t say I really get it. Gonna put it out there though that this approach didn’t work for neither Hillary or Pence.

Fun little article, but in my head I saw the “What year is it!?!” meme, because its just like. The number of people still living in gaslit rooms of their own design around the role of Democrats and the DNC and their role in ushering in fascism.

Its like, you can’t really blame fascists for being fascists? Or like, a leopard wont change its spots, Or rather, your only option to deal with fascists is to eliminate them. And you can’t do that with Democrats when they’re always going to try and play ball with them; when they see fascists as better partners to their agenda than working people.

The problem isn’t the fascists is the point. Fascists are very easily beatable. But not when you have liberals willing to defend them and the structures and institutions fascists depend on.

The corpse is basically in a permanent “present” vote, or even less then that? Because it can delay quorum?

Its still Kentucky.

I can’t tell you anything about the bears, but I took a shit in the woods.

Its important to see that candidates are winning by offering something to the voters. They aren’t running in orange man bad. They can feel that way, but it’s not why they are running

There are like a bajillion studies relating voter psychology and political preferences. If you want conservatives to vote you run on anger, holding onto what you have, fear of the other. You want the other side to vote, you have to present a vision of what’s possible.

This means Democratic Socialist Jason Liang: https://www.jasonforhnl.com/ has a real shot to make it into the general.

I need to use this gif more often

Whoa! What the hell are you doing? Are you trying to get your self out on a list?

Wild. I genuinely would trust Iran more than Saudi Arabia or Israel at this point.
