@L3ftyOwl2 Right wing dude is winning

You: My candidate just needs to go further left

[Kierkegaarden Cop @joshsteich]

@L3ftyOwl2 That’s what’s winning

[Kierkegaarden Cop @joshsteich]

@L3ftyOwl2 The “populist” rhetoric on immigration, transgender rights and Gaza is all about hating them

By “better,” you mean “worse for them”?

[Nathan Ruser @Nrg8000]

I think the rest of the world just has to realise the US we thought we all knew probably just doesn't exist and hasn't for a while. We need to shift our assumptions and look at the US in the same way we look at India.

@OnlyAWorldAway @GumballTj3 @DiRico_Rants We don’t have evidence the opposite fails—the current evidence supports Trump, which is the opposite of that

[Kierkegaarden Cop @joshsteich]

@L3ftyOwl2 @DiRico_Rants Where is the evidence for this

[Kierkegaarden Cop @joshsteich]

@OnlyAWorldAway @GumballTj3 @DiRico_Rants Where is the actual evidence that this works?

@pseudonimjz @whstancil People keep saying their personal situation is good but the economy is bad

[Will Stancil @whstancil]

Yes: economic dissatisfaction ultimately reflects the domination of the information environment by the right wing (and antisocial sentiment more generally), rather than real economic conditions, which are better than most voters have ever lived through.

@AndreDeToth @YR195 @ArmandDoma Nah, misogyny

[Armand Domalewski @ArmandDoma]

if you genuinely believe the American people voted for Trump because they think Kamala Harris is too right wing on foreign policy you have lost your goddam mind

[Kierkegaarden Cop @joshsteich]

@96fps @constans @Christo77309767 It was real, but it was global and not something related to much US policy

[Kierkegaarden Cop @joshsteich]

Maybe America just hates women?

[Kierkegaarden Cop @joshsteich]

@ShaiRinku Bc America has a 40% floor for fascism

[Kierkegaarden Cop @joshsteich]

@96fps @constans @Christo77309767 It wasn’t that it wasn’t real, it was that it was largely tied to supply chain disruption and fuel costs

But facts can’t beat feelings I guess

[Tom Cecil @scopgieb]

Wow. This could be big. Early turnout suggests Jill Stein is winning a massive share of voters who have set up GoFundMes to escape toxic roommate situations

@JeremiahDJohns spoken like a real 51/49

American democracy has never been more representative than it is today

["Online Rent-a-Sage" Bret Devereaux @BretDevereaux]

Every time s*** like this happens, we should send another hundred Bradleys and a hundred thousand 155mm to Ukraine.

@constans Counterpoint: My mom is retiring now after ~20 years of being a "lecturer" (what her U calls adjuncts, basically) & has a decent pension & healthcare bc they were unionized & willing to strike

Even if she never got the respect & position she deserved, it wasn't a bad career
