Of course it is - the median voter seems to have all the brains of an ox - half of them still have Trump as their gender identity. People would like to think they’re better than that, but the outcomes beg to differ.

Trump’s only asset has been his vibes. He (and the GOP broadly) are an utter failure on anything of substance - their contempt for voters is clear in their policy. Problem is that his vibes are collapsing at an exponential rate.

Dems undeniably have the substance (only relatively speaking), but their contempt for voters fucks their vibes. The GOP is now so obviously unhinged they’ve seen an opportunity, and un-fucked their vibes.

Getting the job is mostly the vibes, doing the job is mostly the substance - and the current winner on both fronts is pretty fucking straightforward. It’ll still be a toss-up, sadly.

Yeah - fair. As I said though, it all speaks to the kind of scumbag the guy is.

There was also the fact that Hogan ratted out the wrestlers attempts to unionise, leading directly to the terrible working conditions that persist to this day… All because he liked being paid the most.

There’s a lot more to it, but these examples should begin to paint a picture of the kind of guy he is.

Yeah - that was a pretty clear change post-coma (unless the coma cost him the ability to hide it).

Given his hypocrisy, dishonesty, and the agenda he was pushing, I just can’t find any sympathy for him whatsoever.

Sus Fing.

It’s honestly sad that he still has a following - the Russian coma he was put into to get over his crippling benzo addiction while he was telling people to clean their room before worrying about external issues clearly cooked his brain.

Yikes - that’s news to me. I can’t say I’m shocked - especially knowing the way they were barring journalists from entry, and they obviously want to control the narrative about their genocide.

There’s 2 reasons for that:

• They’re attacking one of the most densely populated areas in the world

• They’re committing a genocide - when they want to wipe out the entire population, journalists are going to get killed in their indiscriminate attacks.

They’re far-right too, so they’re a half-step from flat out executing dissenting journalists (and how are journalists in Palestine likely to be aligned?).

I can call out 5 times in 7 months, or I can come in and cause 5 other people to call in five times in 7 months.

Unrelated question - what’s this sick leave for, exactly?

You didn’t consider the crust ratio, did you?

The crust tends to be a consistent width, so it represents a greater portion of a smaller pizza, shrinking the bit most people are there for.

…but hey, if you love the crust just as much, more power to ya!

Do you think that’s a good-faith read of the meme?

What a spectacularly stupid take.

Both sides being bad isn’t both sides being the same, and I’ve got to wonder what your media diet is if you think this - you a big Tim Pool fan?

He’s far too thin skinned and snivelling for anyone to confuse him for a hero with a shell.

It’s a little too… European for a Texan regressive.

What else have I expressed concern about, champ?

Have I not made it crystal clear that I don’t give a fuck, so long as you vote to keep the fascists out on election day, and then work to improve things at any other moment in the election cycle?

The fact that you keep coming back to disagree with me and call me a lib when you’re doing exactly what I’m advocating for is unhinged.

I’m uninterested in the rest of your nonsense (particularly given your deeply weird behavior), and there’s no value in dismantling it.

I recognise the problems. The issue that that your solution to those problems is to make them all worse, burn democracy to the ground and cause a bunch of genocides because that’ll somehow magically make it better.

I think I might have overestimated you when I called you an accelerationist - between the incoherent pseudo-leftist nonsense, American diabolist leanings, “fixing” things by electing fascists, performative third-party nonsense, and calling everyone a lib… Are you a Jimmy Dore fan?

The fascists are the enemy - you’re just their useful idiot… and what an idiot you are.

Joke’s on you, Ben - we’ve been attacking you for years with the gay agenda, CRT, letting kids know that gay and trans people exist, fighting for abortion rights, Antifa, BLM, women’s suffrage, contraception, emancipation…

Ah - you’re an accelerationist - there’s not a party that perfectly represents you, so you’ll vote in a way that’ll give power to the fascists so they make everything worse, end democracy, ramp up support for the foreign genocide, and commit a bunch domestically so the survivors get fed up enough to hopefully revolt and dismantle that government entirely, rebuild from scratch, and hopefully build something better. Because getting a bunch of workers killed while making life worse for everyone is the strategic, pro-worker thing to do.

You don’t need to burn everything to the ground and get a bunch of workers killed to organise. You deserve to be first against the wall when the fascists win.

So you see one party that’s actively burning things to the ground, and is likely to swap elections with a series of genocides, and another party that’s not undoing the bad things the fascists did, and you say they’re the same, and then vote defend voting in a way that empowers the fascists. You think you’re being coerced because a terrible option exists that you should avoid? Wait till they’re in power.

You understand why I think this is moronic, right? Childish fucking virtue signalling that risks democracy. As I said, work to make the Democrats better literally every other day of the election cycle, then vote like a goddamned adult - like lives are on the line.
