Elon has the ear of the president-elect now (for the time being anyway, until he gets Scaramucci'd). Of course they're going to try to make him happy.

Corporations are sociopaths. They don't care about what's right, they car about what creates the most value for the stockholders.

How many Scaramuccis do you think she'll last?

If the Democrats were communists, instead of milquetoast centrist corporatists, you might have a point.

I don't blame FEMA workers for not wanting to help people who are literally trying to kill them, frankly.

No one criticizes men for choosing celibacy or choosing to remain single.

I agree with a lot of what you are saying, but I have to take issue with this. Men do get criticized for choosing not to have sex, or choosing not to marry. A man who chooses not to have sex constantly has his manhood questioned. And any single man who has not been asked when he's gonna find a nice girl and settle down is a man without family.

I think the specter of RBG is still looming large.

LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOO

Trump has been running since 2016, so yeah, pretty close.

And frankly, even in 2012, her campaign has never been shy about taking help from the Republicans to spoil elections for the Democrats. Even if Stein isn't an active collaborator with them, she is at best a useful idiot.

She flat out told people to vote straight ticket Democrat in this very speech.

This article is just an attempt at ratfucking because she didn't explicitly say she was specifically endorsing Harris.

I voted a week ago. Apparently that was a smart move, because my friends who voted this week have been saying the lines are looooooooooong. Which is a good problem to have, IMHO. Love that people are voting early.

I have an interest in driving out the fascists from the public sphere. The best way to do that is to marginalize them as much as possible.

They control the Republican party, so the Republican party must end. And the best way to do that right now is to boost their most viable challenger.

Indeed.

When the fascists have been driven out of the public sphere, we're going to have to do something about that.

That's the problem with the first-past-the-post voting system. It necessarily limits you to two choices, which frequently means you're merely picking the one you dislike least.

Rare "fuck the police" and "fuck climate change" intersection.

You named two issues. Granted, they are big issues, but they aren't as big as Trump openly promising to turn America into a fascist state.

I mean, Trump is openly promising to wreck American democracy and use the military against protestors on American soil at this point. There's a lot of problems with Harris, sure, but to say they're the same is to admit your own ignorance.

I mean, that's kind of what they did. The Post was absolutely flooded with opinion columns calling out the paper and Bezos for their cowardice, and most of their editorial board has resigned at this point.

Perhaps, but Trump is outright promising it. He is flat out saying he'll deploy the National Guard and the military against the "enemy from within".

Please look up the Kent State Massacre.

It didn't just end with arrests.

I don't mind saying on this account that I'm from Wichita. Which is a great town, except for the fact that it's in Kansas.
