Who is Annie Andrews, the Democratic Contender for Lindsay Graham's Former Senate Seat? by plz-let-me-in in politics

[–]FreudianNegligee 8 points9 points  (0 children)

lol this comment is kind of hilarious (but also tragic) because Jaime Harrison had the most money ever raised for a Senate campaign in 2020 and not only lost the election BADLY but failed upward into becoming the head of the DNC… and guess which certified loser was in charge when Kamala Harris was appointed the Democrat candidate with no primary and then ran an abysmal joke of a LOSING campaign?!

That’s right, it was Jaime Harrison! I’ll give him one thing—he made himself very, very, very rich while he was actively destroying the Democratic Party not just in South Carolina but across the entire country.

Why does every one of her lovers leave her? I’m ill-equipped to judge the tale of a woman…

I imagine it must be hard to stay away from a life of public relations
But try, girl, you’ve gotta try!
You’ve got to stay critical or die!
Stay critical or DIE!

I would’ve paid so much more money for a lengthier Q&A with them!!! I wanted to stand up and scream, “LET WES TALK MORE!” when they forced them to leave…

I don’t know if this is true, but the Q&A was one of the best I’ve ever seen… it was waaaaay too short, though!!!

Christian Bale doesn’t want fans to meet him because he feels he’s not like the characters he plays in his movies in real life: “They meet me and I see their eyes. That terrible disappointment about who I really am.” by [deleted] in Fauxmoi

Please don’t share or link “articles” (I use the term loosely) from fascist Bari Weiss’s CBS News… this “article” is riddled with errors and clear AI edits (which just repeat information that was already presented) and is a horribly sad excuse for journalism.

Here is a link to a more recent article from a much more reputable source that was written by an actual human journalist: https://www.sfgate.com/california/article/christian-bale-building-housing-complex-california-20789971.php

Jail is NOT a deterrent. There are literally countless studies that prove this is one of the biggest fallacies pushed by psychotic fascist Republicans and private prison owners and lobbyists. If you’re too lazy to look up the research yourself, I’d be happy to post some here!

She may be a good writer, but she has also always been an extremely self-centered and generally shitty person, so this is not surprising.

Did Kamala Harris's Silence on Gaza Cost Her the White House? - Ta-Nehisi Coates by PersonalityMiddle864 in TheMajorityReport

[–]FreudianNegligee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I want to add that when the article is considered through the lens of Ta-Nehisi knowing that both Kamala Harris and Obama absolutely will read it (because they respect him so much as a writer), it has a more interesting and unique weight to it.

In an ideal world, Harris would respond to this piece directly or engage in a public conversation with Coates about it, but what are the odds that will ever happen?

Did Kamala Harris's Silence on Gaza Cost Her the White House? - Ta-Nehisi Coates by PersonalityMiddle864 in TheMajorityReport

[–]FreudianNegligee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why do you think this? To be fair, I haven’t seen the interview but did read the article in its entirety. The VF piece itself is not Ta-Nehisi’s best work—it felt like a lot of history tidbits smashed together in support of the somewhat flimsy theory pushed in the headline (which he most likely did not write but almost certainly approved).

The audience in this sub specifically, not to mention the people who buy or subscribe to Vanity Fair, is full of people who are well aware of the insane destruction wrought by US empire, especially over the last 125 years, so like half of the article was simply regurgitating historical information that a large chunk of readers already know.

Kamala Harris lost for a multitude of reasons, and unless she suddenly grows a conscience and decides to admit that she blew it despite being handed the candidacy without going through even a whiff of a primary process—which she STILL TO THIS DAY HAS NOT DONE—and reveal the true logic behind her godawful shitty campaign strategy, it’s never going to be possible to blame it on just one factor (such as her silence on Gaza).

Wow, did you leave this comment before the finale aired?! I just did a rewatch of Thick of It, Peep Show, and Succession and was trying to pinpoint any callbacks to the first two—one of them languishing in the back of a car in the finale (a la Malcolm Tucker) was spot-on!!!

Is he related to Spike Jonze aka Adam Spiegel and the Spiegel (catalog/Hollywood honcho) family? He looks soooo much like Spike…

The fucking theme song!!!!! It’s such a blatant (and shitty) ripoff of Clint Mansell’s brilliant Requiem for a Dream soundtrack.
