“People will suffer for this.” How a @rooster_ohio blog post exposed Ohio House “HR”leading to tantrums and threats. But @Russo4Ohio was complicit in the “silence, or else” culture.
The left is dominated by clout-chasing losers who have a lifelong need to be part of the cool kids club because they were never in school as children. For most of their lives, the left was "cool," - Obama, Occupy, Pride, Black Lives Matter, etc. MAGA momentarily captured the culture in 2024, and it ultimately broke them, so now they're hedging their bets by playing all sides culturally.
“I’ve had toxic boyfriends. That’s part of the human experience”
That so many so-called liberals are selling their soul to make excuses for Platner is astonishing and deeply depressing.
Do you remember the tidal wave of vicious misogyny after the re-election of Donald Trump? Men were going around the internet trolling women by saying, "Your body; my choice." Leaders--and the malfeasance we accept from them--do have an effect on their followers.
I’m gonna to piggy back on this.
2 of the most prepared, experienced, candidates ever were Kamala and Hilary, who had plans for every damn thing.
They lost to a man with concepts of a plan.
But he did have IDENTITY.
That’s what got him into office.
Same with Fetterman,
Now that @XavierBecerra is advancing to November with strong Latino support, I'd like to point out that @ettingermentum mocked the most basic statement of politics. Maybe you don't need to listen to fake edgelords who are wrong on politics more often than not.
@RealTalkBarker@neeratanden@XavierBecerra@ettingermentum White people vote on identity politics all the time.
What is platner’s draw?
He’s a regular, let’s go have a beer white man.
Fetterman?
Regular, wears hoodies and shorts white man.
Neither of these men have any policies to speak of, just their identity.
Please stop talking sir.
Just a reminder that Janet Mills is still in the Maine Senate primary race and has a pretty decent shot at winning. And objects are smaller in real life than they appear on social media.

@RealProfSnark@neeratanden@ryangrim Apologies are not about the recipient’s ego, they’re about righting a wrong and doing better. You dudes can’t do it bc your own egos get in the way.
Graham Platner is not working class, he did not grow up working class, he is not working class now as an adult either. His story is not one of a working class person. He and his team should try presenting him as his true, authentic self and ditch the faux working man nonsense.
The Bernie Bro narrative was not at all made up, much as they whined and cried about it. Supporters of Hillary Clinton (female supporters in particular) were faced with endless harassment, merely bc they prefer to candidate other than Bernie Sanders.
Platner might survive his scandals, but it's notable that progressives who called themselves "feminists" and talk a big game about uplifting the marginalized, are rallying around a middle-aged straight white guy with abuse allegations simply out of tribalism.
The far left has been deeply misogynistic from the jump. Really exposing themselves on this Platner stuff…but it is no surprise to those of us who were targeted and harassed by the Bernie bros since 2016 for the crime of supporting Hillary, the most qualified candidate ever.
So let me get this straight.
Jake Tapper is focused on attacking my Mom.
Jared and Ivanka are building a private island paradise on Albanian protected land.
Don Jr married the daughter of Epstein’s banker, and a startup his fund backs just got a record $620M Pentagon loan.
Eric is taking an Israeli drone company public for $1.5B in the middle of a war with Iran that nobody wanted.
And I know: “But what about your paintings, Hunter?”
Please.
Meiselas: Katie Miller has been posting about you. I want to give you the opportunity right now to respond. What do you want to say to her?
Paulina Mangubat, Content and Creative Director for @TheDemocrats: I want Katie Miller to know that her husband is an ugly fuck.
