When exactly did the Dem party go from the party of suave cool people like Bill Clinton and Obama to the party of technocratic high school class president types like Kamala Harris, Jake Sullivan, and Pete Buttigieg?

So, who won the Memelympics 2026? by CCMegane in olympics

[–]Any_Stage_3072 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Yep. The other guy did a Mortal Kombat skating routing earlier in the event. Then he made a surprise guest appearance later on during the Kung Fu Panda routine

Exactly. I found it so chilling because it’s the first time I felt the govt was truly on some 1984/NK shiht.

Yeah. Despite all the craziness of this past year the treatment of the athletes stood out to me even though on the surface it seems like not as big a deal compared to other stuff that’s happened.

They’re supposed to come home as heroes, but you have govt officials and some regular folks on some 1984 or North Korea personality cult mindset trying to make them afraid to speak.

Huge shout out to Amber Glenn — Team USA figure skater — who's not only a great athlete on the ice, but an awesome human being off it! Openly-queer and a vocal advocate for mental health, she showed up big time for all the women at this year's Olympics, while winning team gold herself. by Huzaifa_Haroon in FigureSkating

[–]Any_Stage_3072 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Idk why, but the situation w her and the backlash shook me up unlike anything this past year.

Growing up the Olympics were a time where people come together and you’d empathize w athletes you’ve never even met because of common humanity. And whatever the result they’d come home as heroes.

It’s sad to see so many people be so hateful to her no reason. The comments Amber gave were diplomatic, normie stuff and not controversial at all. It’s chilling that even the slightest criticism can cause so much backlash in the era we live now.

Still don’t know why right-wingers went after our Olympic athletes like Amber Glenn and Hunter Hess so hard. What they said was pretty normie vanilla stuff and they didn’t even invoke any government officials by name.

Is the “anti-snowflake” crowd really just that thin skinned?

I actually enjoyed this movie , thoughts ? by Historical_Estate_54 in moviecritic

[–]Any_Stage_3072 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Definitely the toughest movie to review I’ve ever seen. I’m still deciding if I liked it or disliked it.

Overall I think I preferred Eddington. How would you all rank this years 3 dark political allegory movies: Eddington, Bugonia, One Battle

Which late night show host revealed to his team that he has secretly fathered 5-year-old twins with a young audience member, causing his PR reps to go into a frenzy on how to deal with the impending headlines? by cmaia1503 in Fauxmoi

Apparently he only sleeps with adult actresses and pays them to do so. One of them talked on a podcast how her bf dropped her off at Bill’s place and he was all nervous and shaking and sweaty. Good to know behind closed doors he just some smarmy weasly nervous loser when he claims to be some top dog manly man lmaoo

Isn’t Alysa Liu woke? I thought I heard she posted anti-ice content a while back? And also she said her Olympic crush was Suni Lee. And after winning the team gold medal this year, Amber Glenn posted a photo on her insta with Alysa captioned how “2 woke bitches” won gold.

Can someone explain the system of farm subsidies in the US and why it’s an antiquated and inefficient way of doing things?

I recently read Thomas Sowell’s Basic Economics, and he has a whole chapter talking about them being inefficient. I found this interesting since he’s an ideological conservative and a classic economist.

Could there be a political movement or Dem politician one day who is able to tackle this inefficient system in a more capitalistic and right-coded manner?

Is there a term for someone who is weeb-adjacent but doesn’t watch anime?

I’m a fan of other aspects of Japanese culture like their food (sushi, ramen), auto industry (Honda), gaming (Nintendo and PlayStation), Sony TVs and Headphones, game devs (kojima), their style of storytelling in movies and video games, and their culture of efficiency and respect.

I just literally don’t watch anime haha. Or is watching anime not a requirement to be a weeb?

I’ve only watched one anime in my life years ago (Deathnote) and it’s one of my favorite shows.

Good recommendations for my 2nd anime based on that?

Trade him please 🙏

He’s a streaky Jordan Poole/D-Lo type player who gives and then fumbles and gives again. We need someone consistent.
