Chris Rufo spent a lot of time extolling colorblind individualism and villifying people who opposed it in rather sweeping and self-righteous terms. It's sad to see how much his comportment changes when his former approach becomes less politically convenient for him in coalitional politics.
@_Almaqah@amyewalter And electoral college. But it’s not enough to have a structural advantage and more big money donors, there is still some chance that the result could be somewhat representative, which is intolerable to the republican mind.
@baseballcrank Seems like the party that controls both houses of congress and the white house might be more to blame.
But, of course, you are a radical partisan, always have been, always will be. Posting embarrassing shit is literally your job.
@JSnakehole87@RandomMHumanoid@bendreyfuss Im not saying there is no one in there 80s. Jfc can you people read? Are you blind? The average age of the protestors, by even the most casual observation, is probably in the 40s range. I imagine you could look only at the protests at like the Villages in fl and be right. 😂
@jawillick@jadler1969 I do not see how anyone could believe a case that was not decided on the merits somehow “green-lit” the FCC’s actions. The facts here are also very different. Quite a stretch. Guess you got your both sides bona fides check for the day.
@BKCrownPlaneGuy@mattyglesias It is going to cost more to fix all the shit they broke than any realized savings. And in the meantime lots of people will die. It was never about saving money, dont be such a sucker.
@mannedhandle@NateSilver538 It’s the weirdest critique ever to point at some mid-tier dork on *both* platforms as a problem when literally every nazi is on this site. He cant really be so stupid (or high?) as to find this persuasive to anyone. Like, what is even going on here? Does he owe someone money?
It’s beautiful to have a country where if you narrowly fail to become the president you eventually end up alone in a room eating salmon and ketchup sandwiches and watching Ted Lasso
Romney clears the phenomenally low bar of being a better person than current GOP pols, so we’re supposed to feel bad he got criticized WHEN RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT.
He courted and flouted the endorsement of one Donald fucking Trump too, so he was hardly a shirking violet himself
@KaraCalavera Republicans were mad at chris christie for like a decade for hugging with obama after hurricane sandy. I bet desantis is trying to avoid that (dumb as it may be)
@KevinTartis@AlecStapp There are other tailwinds as well, including massive spending to expand productive capacity from the CHIPS act and generational transfers that will tick up bigly over the next decade, to name a few. Lots of unknowns though!
@KevinTartis@AlecStapp This has a lot of good data. CC debt, relative to total debt, seems relatively stable and has not increased nearly as much as student loan debt or mortgages.
