It’s changing back. Trump is quietly re-aligning the US with Russia.

I met my wife on OK cupid. 8 years ago though.

If you want to kill a whole lot of people, your police will suffer and eventually quit if you just have the execute people en mass. This happened to the Nazis and it’s the prime reason the gas chambers were constructed.

The police need to feel like they are doing the right thing.

The realistic hope I think is that Cuomo had support from extremely wealthy backers. New York Real Estate and Wall Street, Bloomberg, all backed Cuomo.

The people said no. The money didn’t swing it for Cuomo. The name recognition and the money didn’t swing it for Cuomo. The dynasties didn’t swing it for Cuomo.

Mamdani came in and offered real improvements to people’s lives and they gave him their votes.

They fought like the fight Trump. Sternly worded letters. Op eds. Speeches. Press conferences. Maybe a procedural vote or 2.

You must be really inspired by that energy.

Dems did the same thing to trump. This could go really well.

Anyone could have run vrs Biden. That asswipe from Michigan did. I looked into his politics and decided I would rather have Biden.

Small in number. Bernie came close both times, but 40% of the primary voters is like 2% of the population.

I would remind you that Clinton was legit popular with dem primary voters. She nearly won vrs Barak Obama, historically charismatic candidate.

The rules for primaries are clear. Anyone can run in them if they get the signatures.

If you don’t like the candidates that’s fine but Democrats individually decided not to run against Biden.

The party can’t stop them.

Middle age progressives have been pissed off since 2009 or so, when Congress scraped the public option from the ACA. We won a few victories (yay marriage equality) but the ghouls can lie, like they lied about keeping roe. So they will keep winning until they are met with honest people willing to change the system.

Socialism or lose.

You have been playing too much rainbow six. There are no good guys in the halls of power looking after us.

There are only the rich fucks over here and the rich fucks over there pulling the levers of power.

It’s the only rational course of action we have left for them. They would be insane not to try. I don’t know if they will succeed. Mosad seems all powerful, but they will certainly try.

The Democrats are a conservative party. They want to get back to the days when the parties had no ideological differences and were just clubs that voters picked personalities they liked most.

That ended during the progressive era, when some politicians (in both parties) got ideas about making the country better for working class people. The Republicans had more friends that were rich as fuck so they started propaganda campaigns among Republican voters and the progressive Republicans were primaried out of office.

Now the Democrats are stuck with the leftist label they don’t really want. Some of their voters do, but only some. American voters want leftist policies to be enacted but are allergic to leftist politicians and organizing.

Madman? He knew exactly what he was doing. He’s a maga murderer.

The church is large and complex and run by many different people. It has been a force for good and evil all along.

If they spent half as much time monitoring wmright wing murderers as they do peaceful left wing movements, the country would be a lot safer.

What do you think they should do? Go to Minnesota and wack two Republicans to balance the legislature back out?

If he wants to be an occupying army he shouldn’t be surprised when he gets treated like one.

I would hang out with me. I would play boardgames and learn about obscure subjects that I am interested in.

I would have trouble coordinating schedules with myself.

It’s terrifying in many ways.
