Classic wayne post:

1. Factually incorrect (gender gap is like 10 points and pretty stable)

2. Folksy “just sayin” implication that an extremely fringe hyper fascist position is “ordinary” or the kind of thing normal people think about

3. The dumbest thing you’ll ever read

i cannot think of a more perfectly distilled example of why so many survivors of sexual assault don’t come forward

[Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen]

Democrats have provided reflexive & unconditional support to Netanyahu & Israeli governments, even as they undermined the values we claimed to stand for.

It's time to end taxpayer-funded support & condition arms sales to end the occupation & salvage a 2-state solution.

Mamdani is proof that leftist are perfectly capable of understanding the value of incrementalism when it's rapped in a package they find aesthetically pleasing.

@dailydishwater @arash_tehran Why?

The political analysis of Andor usually doesn’t consider that the rebels would have lost if they didn’t have the support of 1) a space wizard prince with magical powers bestowed by his genetics and 2) the defense contractor who built his spaceship

what’s everyone’s lowkey controversial sw take??

From my perspective, leftists seem to hate AOC because she is one of the only genuinely left-wing politicians who is electorally and politically competent and able to attract at least a portion of the mainstream. There is nothing they are more allergic to than winning.

@hecubian_devil They do, it’s one reason Burning Man has so much big art

@tico_tonito @Bostopianews @BostonGlobe Can you articulate exactly which critiques you mean? Where do you live?

[Frank @aethelwer]

@tico_tonito @Bostopianews @BostonGlobe "Some remember in 2022 when Walsh ... appeared in Chinese state media propaganda videos, delivering polished critiques of then-House speaker Nancy Pelosi’s decision to lead a delegation to Taiwan."

@Bostopianews @BostonGlobe Evan - I know there is some alignment of values, but I think Calla has kinda come untethered from reality. Not really a good figurehead.

[Brandon Bradford @BrandonLBradfor]

The destruction of the VRA, just like the destruction of Roe v Wade, was generations of work by the Right. Incrementalism is what makes big swings more likely, and longer lasting. If you don't get this, you will always lose what's important in the long run. Elections matter.

We’ve essentially watched as the slave states, and children of the confederacy, have slowly and surely dismantled the union, civil rights and the constitution.

Nothing better than hearing that “door open” sound and seeing your crush online. These were the days. Truly.

[Hunter📈🌈📊 @StatisticUrban]

The left treats the Indigenous as some sort of mythical forest elves who cannot do wrong.

Whale hunting is bad. It was necessary for some people in ages past. But it is not anymore. I don't care that it's "cultural." Many terrible things are cultural. They should knock it off.

@PatrickHeizer I’d take the money and invest. What if I suddenly lose an arm?
