When he says “left” he is referring to the neoliberal establishment.

He understands that these are not the same thing. But his base doesn’t

Lawful Woke

and/or

“And/or” is grammatically incorrect. It should be “or” because “or” does not preclude the possibility of both being present

Yeah my point is that voters did show up. Dems did historically well in 2022 for an incumbent party

Its just that the structure of our electoral politics favors rural areas and gerrymandered districts. Which currently means the red team benefits. Which isn’t the fault of recent voters

You’re blaming an individual for the actions of a group that they are not a part of and did not participate in. That’s collective guilt

In what way was it more progressive than Medicare and Medicaid?

Lyndon Johnson and the Great Society is the high-water mark of progressive domestic legislation. Nothing in the 60 years since then is remotely close - quite the opposite, actually

Biden did historically well in the midterms tbh. If it wasn’t for gerrymandering and a population capped House, Dems would still have complete control of Congress

What evidence is there that Kamal will even try to pass an agenda that is similar to what Walz did in Minnesota?

I think Walz is the most progressive governor in the country and would love to see his policies implemented on a national level. What evidence is there that Kamala’s administration will even attempt to enact those policies? She has been light on policy, with the exception of supporting Israel and building the wall via the bipartisan immigration bill that the Dems are now running on.

I’m assuming Tester wins in Montana and dems have a blue house and 50/50 senate. But even with that, idk why we would presume she would be as progressive as Walz

Why are you utilizing collective guilt in your argument?

she intends to vote for harris. I’m doing everything I can to stop her.

It’s not like voting will do any harm. Instead, wouldn’t it be more productive to do everything you can to get her to organize her workplace?

name the show after the unfunniest member of the trio.

That was the joke. The problem is that the show hasn’t done much since that initial joke.

Although some of the interviews are pretty good, especially the Chris Cuomo one, surprisingly. Also their skits were consistently great; haven’t gotten one of those in awhile though

Wristwatches don’t have the negative psychologically addictive and anxiety-producing effects of smartphones

Most people under 50 probably barely have any analog clocks around.

Every home/apt of every under 40 year old person I have ever been in has had at least one analog clock. And most have had several.

Also, grandfather clocks are a thing. And they’re gorgeous.

Extremely anti-social to act like digital clocks are better - similar to acting like social media and Facetime calls are in any way superior to irl face-to-face interaction - as our current loneliness epidemic demonstrates

Do you have any particular episodes of that podcast that you would recommend?

Do you have any recommendations on how to effectively do this now that you’ve gone through it?

consistent with a trend that is quite obvious

What trend?

sealioning

Using terms like this makes one sound socially maladjusted. Which makes sense given the site we’re on. Which reinforces my point that a random comment has no representative value - people on here are STEM-brained weirdos or are bots. Either way, not exactly representative of the median adult US voter

So if the above person was familiar with Whitmer then I should presume that most people also are?

Your points aren’t making sense. Anecdotal evidence gathered from a non-American child’s comments on a random post on a fringe STEM-lord website is not representative of anything.

I am serious that anecdotal evidence is not statistically significant and that, therefore, one random child is not representative of anything

The child above me and their lack of knowledge has no relation to prudent political decision making, and their opinions are not reflective or representative of anything

A random ignoramus on the internet does not determine anything, much less what is wise for the country or the Democratic Party.

don’t know enough about Whitmer

Then you aren’t informed enough to even be talking about this
