They're all using the same talking points for how to appeal to "normal" people from DC insiders who haven't spoken to a normal person outside a focus group in decades.

This is like a live-action Kelly cartoon, particularly the "Fire from God" labeling.

AOC is easily the best communicator in the party and maybe of her generation. The entire right wing media apparatus has tried and failed to paint her as an airhead.

This app is made up almost exclusively of 38 year old introverts who have said "social isolation? I've been preparing for that my whole life huh huh huh" at least ten times

Bernie, AOC, Mamdani et al all speak to the supposed concerns of democrats about affordability and healthcare much much better than any establishment dem because they palpably care about it, and haven't gotten all their talking points from third way ghouls who mostly just hate trans people

You won't appreciate the subtlety of this three hour movie with a billion superheroes in it without reviewing this other three hour movie with a billion superheroes in it

[After watching college students get beaten by cops for protesting a genocide supported by a democratic president] it's important you guys vote to stop fascism

In light of China's new android that can outrun humans, and no other reasons whatsoever, I will not be participating in the NYC marathon ever

Establishment media are trying to draw continuity between obvious truisms (machines are better than humans at lots of things) with what they insist is inevitable (machines will take over all white collar work)

I wonder what apparently negligible part of Harris' platform the senator with the most AIPAC money is referring to

At least half of reactionary conservativism comes from not being able to separate cultural artifacts from your youth - most of which are bad, outdated, or at the very least not worth defending once you graduate high school - from a time in your life when you had relatively few responsibilities.

I'm a femto-influencer, defined as someone who doesn't even follow themselves, and I've still managed to make an honest living promoting nonexistent mindfulness apps

Establishment dems still haven't forgiven Michigan for having a large Arabic community that they are convinced lost them the state despite no evidence

The protestant majority within the Christian right only likes Catholicism inasmuch as it can be used for antichoice initiatives

Good to see the guy from The OC finding common ground with the guy from I Think You Should Leave

Who would have thought someone whose entire claim to fame is complaining about a better athlete taking her fifth place spot would be this sad

Any time Riley Gaines is not yelling about trans people stealing her fifth place trophy she is less than useless to them

And they're not even close to being a leftist party either, they're center to center right. See guys, you can be ideologically lame if you're willing to actually fight for it!

I don't think never Trumpers are completely useless - their recent proximity to MAGA gives them a clearer-eyed focus on how bad things are than a lot of establishment dems - but they are less than useless when it comes to saying what the party should do outside a few ossified leaders.

You once were Orban
Now you will be-gone

Intel Incels

yo dawg I heard you like blockades so I added a blockade to your blockade

We're living in Stupid 2003, we need stupid 2003 memes

You once were Or-ban
Soon you will be-gone

It is also a perfect melding of gen AI's well known flattering tendencies with American evangelicalism's insistence that Jesus is their best friend

A focus on corruption might find a fruitful pathway in impeaching the president, who some say is corrupt

At least his in-universe name Fleaslapp Basso wasn't distracting

If democrats hold an impeachment vote they'll be taking time away from all the other things they're not doing

The Christian right has always prioritized local elections, school boards in particular, for at least as long as they've been politically organized. They thrive with a lack of attention. When other people actually run and bring it to light, they tend to lose.

Probably the best criticism of Space Jam came from Chuck Jones, who hated the movie with all his might and hated it specifically because Bugs would not recruit others to fight his battles
