Why are all the actual real human jobs like baker and florist and childcare worker barely paying livable wages but the fake jobs like Ai specialist boot licker of Marketing campaign dick sucker making six figures
i think jon ossoff's best strengths came from his lack of interest in attacking his left flank & focusing on trump's corruption & scandals instead. i said he was a dark horse because he's been smart enough to back restrictions on weapons transfers to israel at times regardless of his incredibly conservative voting track record otherwise.
this is part of the reason why many zionist orgs in georgia that masquerade as jewish advocacy orgs have aggressively condemned the jewish senator at times and still dangle their endorsement over mike collins who has literal white nationalists ties.
i just wish people were more truthful about this entire ordeal. the last 48 hr media frenzy is exactly why people don't trust institutions from corporate media to our bought & sold political class. most of these orgs, and plenty in the media will operate like lapdogs for aipac with no care or consideration for nuance, the truth or how the majority feels about anything.
this crisis of credibility for msm has been beneficial for me personally as an independent media personality, but i still naively believe that these institutions are worth preserving and defending at a time when we have no consensus reality.
We have to be completely honest about what’s happening to the younger generation—people 35 and under. They are legitimately being excluded from society. At least half cannot find a boyfriend or girlfriend, not to mention a spouse. Prices make people not want to buy anything. The system in place is not working for them. Many live with parents because no one wants a to barely afford a place that leaves them lonely and depressed. This is bad; there is no pretending anymore.
our food is poison, the surveillance state put a flock/axon camera in every corner, a data center in every backyard, prices are out control, our military depleted its ammo and burned billions in iran for israel
america has always had tremendous potential. we are squandering it.
Corporate rentseeking and public-private partnerships have cost us the ability to rebuild key infrastructure. If terrorism or a climate event causes critical damage, that damage is likely to be permanent.
the middle class wasn’t some natural evolution, it was a temporary bribe to stop people from revolting. Now the bribe is gone and they’re quietly herding us back into serfdom while we argue about avocado toast.
If a progressive outspent a centrist 9-to-1 in the midwest and still lost the conventional wisdom would be that their ideology was electoral deadweight the party needs to cut loose but because the opposite happened it’ll just be that college kids are too radicalized or something.
We should just run handsome brown leftist Muslim men who are earnest (but also somewhat cringey) in races all over the country. I think it’s the only way.
The DNC is broke. Yet again, we see how moderate democrats' lofty pie-in-the-sky ideas are unrealistic. You need to pay for things. Ken Martin should listen to the financially responsible DSA, which balanced NYC's budget and is currently millions richer than the DNC. #finance
the amount of bumbling incompetence exhibited by everyone besides the most left wing candidate really puts a dent in the whole "the wisconsin democratic party is exceptionally competent" thesis
The fact that DC Dems can't uniformly speak out against this is dragging the entire party's brand down into the ditch. It's totally corrupt and obscene. It makes all of the Dem grandstanding about "Democracy!" seem completely hollow.
the socialist mayor of new york is cutting regulation and the republican president wants to nationalize critical businesses
one of my deepest hopes is that in the tempest of weirdness that is 2020s politics, we'll eventually pick our heads up just enough to realize that our "isms" make no sense and actually never did, and in fact we should just judge each policy proposal on its own merit against the evidence of whether it would achieve our collective goals
