horseshoe theory is real. leftists almost got kat abughazaleh elected into congress and now it comes out that her boyfriend owns infowars…
I think the American social contract includes, or should include, emotional divestment from old country border disputes
Find out how you can participate in the nationwide day of economic disruption on May 1 and learn more about the strategy behind economic noncooperation at the upcoming May Day training call.
I know it's a lost cause to try and correct people but whenever someone says "they were out there protesting Israel on Oct 8th before they even responded to Oct 7th" you need to remember that Israel actually already bombing Gaza within 5 hours of the initial incursions beyond the border fence.
This is just so cool. A Roman-era mummy recently excavated in Egypt contained a fragment of papyrus with a section of the Iliad.
Abdul el Sayed winning is the obvious ideal scenario but so long as Stevens loses and loses badly to either of the alternatives I'm very happy
A thing that I think a lot of people don't appreciate is that the reason we urgently need court reform isn't that the Court is doing too MUCH, it's that it's doing too LITTLE
It is incapable of performing its essential function. That function is going undone, and this is destroying us as a nation
I dunno about 100% but I am at least 70% on 'the FSB did the apartment bombings in 1999'
oh my god they put a cope cage around the US embassy radar dome
Timothy Snyder and Tooze are alike in that they both wrote very good books about central and Eastern Europe surrounding WWII and have basically good politics today but have become cranks around the edges due to an obsession with abandoning the US in very particular ways
the thing is that it's not true but the problem is that the dumbest leftists are constantly saying it is. just a shared substrate between morons on both sides.

People have somehow memory-holed *just* NRSC/SLF spent about $3m to defend Hyde Smith in 2018.
I am extremely skeptical Hyde Smith comes close to losing and even more skeptical “Mississippi is on the way to be a battleground” but very likely yea National R’s may have to spend which is good
I have negative patience for "it's not fair" what is fair about the nearly impenetrable supermajorities republicans built in the NC or WI state legislatures and their current president thinks it is illegal for him to lose elections
fuck outta here
unless and until republicans agree to a ceasefire in the form of strict anti-gerrymandering provisions: fuck them to hell, squeeze every last drop of blood from the stone, lock them out of every seat you can
Nazi tattoo and all Graham Platner is a better candidate than Seth Moulton.
Were I a Dem super PAC, I would be very quietly putting 5ish million behind targeted persuasion and deep mobilization canvassing.
if i recognise that, very clearly, a large percentage of the UK population has gone absolutely bumshitting insane, what am i supposed to say? "i understand your bumshitting insanity"?
two problems with the USSR should have stayed intact claims, is you can make the same argument for any other empire in history, but the question is how do you keep large swathes of people together who have no interest in it?
Seeing Democrats giving victory speeches in Mississippi the way you saw Viet Cong just out for a stroll around Saigon in 1968
Graham Platner is the ultimate and final byproduct of the Democratic establishment’s complete failures on fascism and Israel.
He does not exist without them. And they are too clueless to realize this.
I’m sorry but if you don’t think Graham Platner would win against a 78-year-old in any other statewide primary right now, you are completely out of touch with how angry and fed up the average Democrat is with not only Trump, but their own party
I’m going to expand on this:
Susan Collins was favored to win handily in 2002, 2008, and 2014. she did, with 58.4%, 61.3%, and 68.4% of the vote.
in 2020, polling aggregators either rated her race Tossup or Lean/Tilt D. she won. with 51% of the vote in round 1.
Counterpoint: we should fuck over rural Virginia because it is hitlerite and deserves it
Anyone who does this should lose their medical license and be imprisoned not less than one year #cdnpoli
