It's too late. This is just a small monster finally grown scared of the big monster he helped create. He'll be shot in the street by the very people his ideologically driven program made, and he will die with a Pikachu face like the rest forced to face the abomination they've unleashed.

One thing has always been true of fascist states every time they've manifested. They eat their own. In their final form, they are without center. And when the society under its thrall finally comes-to, as if from a fever dream, they're surrounded by the remains of all that was lost. And then, finally, they lament.

I would read what he wrote, but I already canceled my subscription. Alas.

Oh cmon now. Don't be dramatic. Rich white guys will be OK. Like always.

Try learning about an event by reading more than just one source. See if you can do it all by yourself without someone feeding it to you. I'm rooting for you. Just think, you could have already learned this yourself using Google and it would have taken less time and words than you spent asking for it in your comment.

"Leave the door open"? It's literally their spoken and strategized plan for the election. How are things the Republicans have been loudly and obviously preparing for and putting in place for literally years "breaking news" days from the election? Democrats are so fucked.

Finally someone else familiar with the most deadly animal in North America.

That wrote "free gaza" on the incendiary devices and drives a Volvo? I mean... maybe, I guess.

👍

The horizon of your possibilities is moving out of the country. You're being judged for the blinkered set of options you gave yourself, whether you think it's "cool" or not.

I hope all that doctor's other patients feel as morally superior as you do.

It wouldn't have put them in a gray area. They would have been arrested for murder. How many more patients did the doctor save that day? That week? That month?

The answer isn't to ask doctors to be jailed for practicing medicine. That only harms everyone else they serve. The answer is not having draconian laws in place that force doctors to choose between serving one patient at the expense of all their other and future patients.

This is exactly the sentiment I'm talking about. The only plan you have is to run away and complain about capitalism. The right is organized to fight from the grassroots up to the executive with back up plans for their back up plans. At this point, with apathy like yours, maybe they deserve to win.

Look around you. Yes, they're OK with being openly racist. It's staggering to me that you're just finding this out.

Overall, a majority of white women support Trump over Harris. People need to grapple with the fact that Trump is quite popular across a surprising number of demographics -- for example, he's more popular with Hispanic voters than any other republican president. He's popular enough that he continues to close the national polling gap (Harris leads by less than 1% now in Silver's poll aggregator; Biden won by over 4% and he still narrowly won the electoral college by only ~80,000 votes), and Nate Silver's projections currently have Trump with a roughly 10% (9.9%) higher chance of winning the electoral college.

And Trump continues to gain as Harris slips, which has been happening slowly but steadily for over a month.

Does it concern anyone else that Republican politicians and voters seem to have dramatic, radical, concrete, and material plans for after they win and after they lose? And it seems like democrats have zero plans if they lose other than to say "it's not possible, I clearly called him a fascist on social media many times"? No one I've spoken with that's a dem or any flavor of left has any concrete plans for if Trump wins. And he's the favorite to win right now. Does that seem bad to anyone else or..? No? OK cool.

👍

Isn't this, like, ideal for him? He gets the publicity, gets the additional registrations for Trump, doesn't have to pay, and gets to blame the government for not paying? If I was Elon I would be enthusiastically cheering for Pennsylvania to win.

Ok, he's a fascist. Let's assume we needed a checklist to confirm this and that it hadn't been already made abundantly clear.

Now what?

I watched the set. Honestly... it was so bad and blatant and distasteful it's almost like a sabotage job. I'm not saying it's true, as Hinchcliffe seems like a shitty person in general. BUT. If he was a different comedian, I could almost see this as a really devious way of undermining and exposing the racism of Trump Republicans. Targeting Hispanics multiple times right before an election that's on a razor's edge? Specifically targeting Puerto Ricans, who have large representation in Pennsylvania?

It seemed weird that he was specifically unwilling to say he'll vote for Trump. He implied it and talked around it, but he didn't say he would. He hid behind the idea that as an entertainer, it would be bad for him. And yet, there's no way it would be bad for him while literally opening a Trump rally, so it seemed like a weird choice that really stuck out to me.

For anyone else watching it, didn't it almost seem like satire? Like he was trying to get them to laugh about awful shit in a way that would make them all look bad? I find it highly unlikely that's what he intended (though it is what he did), but that refusal to actually say he's voting for Trump really stuck out to me.
