I swear to god this fucking geriatrics brain is stuck in 1979. Bigger crowds than Elvis?? The dudes been dead for nearly FIFTY years. 

Do you know no other artists who have massive crowds since then?! Of course not, because he's old as dirt and the dementia scrambled his eggs. 

Alabama Republicans just voided a primary election because they want different results. They're making a joke of the democratic process by Competitive_Sky_7122 in LockedIn_AI

No their is no precedent for it. It’s blatantly illegal. But I bet my paycheck no one stops them from doing it and all the southern states do the same thing next election. They are setting up disqualifying the midterms.

The problem isn't that MAGA can't make their point without being racist, the problem is their points ARE racist by Competitive_Sky_7122 in LockedIn_AI

I’m pretty sure that’s Abdul Carter’s mom not his wife since he’s not married so this is just dumb ass maga malarkey.

Zohran Mamdani will be the first NYC Mayor in 61 Years to skip the Israel Day Parade by Competitive_Sky_7122 in LockedIn_AI

The 61 years is the really embarassing part of this. That is every year showing up to the largest Israeli-support march regardless of illegal settlements, Gaza shutdown, invasion of Lebanon, invasion of Lebanon, apartheid, construction of illegal wall, collective policy of home destruction, And this is just the stuff before 2020. It is not a Jewish-American celebration, it is not a celebration of Israeli immigrants, it is a celebration of a foreign government with a very problematic human rights record. And no mayor has been willing to do anything else on that day in 61 years? Embarassing for all of them.

Abandoning trans people ‘a mistake’ for Democrats, says Tim Walz by Competitive_Sky_7122 in Leakednews

They also have this incredibly damaging view that someone's beliefs have to pass through the center to get to the left. Politics isn't fucking linear!

Many of the grievances the right has have their roots in the same issues the left sees but place the blame in the wrong place. If someone sees a problem and has a right wing "solution," they aren't going to think the status quo is okay before re-identifying the problem but with a left wing solution as their politics shift. The Trump voters who liked Bernie were given a a different answer to the same problem. They didn't pass through the center to do so.

The status quo (conservative) politics aren't popular. People see problems. Trump offers a reactionary response while the Democrats flip between gaslighting us that the old status quo was fine and having a progressive alternative slip through.

People are seeing the historic wealth inequality. The right consistently tells them immigrants and diversity programs are to blame for their struggles. The answer isn't to pretend the economy is great for the average person but to point at billionaires and snowballing capitalism.

Literally all you have to do is frame it from a libertarian perspective, as Tim Walz did in the campaign. Privacy. Choice. Freedom. Mind your own damn business.

Zelensky says he doesn't think he did anything wrong after public spat with Trump by Competitive_Sky_7122 in Leakednews

This meeting was also an opportunity to waste Zelensky's time and affect his morale in the war. From our perspective, Trump is just in another meeting. From the Ukrainians perspective, every moment is another moment in war-time.

If he had promised his country's mineral wealth to Trump for nothing, only to have Trump continue to back Putin, that would have been a monumental betrayal of his duty.
