So it seems this is a right wing site and I’ve only seen this story come up on right wing sites. Her campaign was obviously a dumpster fire but I’m taking this with a grain of salt until I see a better source. Anyone have a source for this that isn’t some reactionary media outlet?

More like buttsky amirite

Also I’m with the DSA which I know causes pain to some individuals but I had to say it 👺 our local is cool that’s the way it is sorry folks

A lot of DSA locals are cool from what I’ve seen and read and I think the DSA serves an important function as an entry point in the leftist pipeline, especially whenever locals set up reading clubs to cover actual theory.

He’s old and out of shape right now, so making it look like “natural causes” would be easy to pull off in a way that even his supporters wouldn’t know any better.

Oh shit this is awful 😣

I didn’t know much about her but thought it was at least kinda good news a trans person was elected to congress. The fact she’s so pro-Israel makes me deeply sad.

I just wonder how many write-in votes Deez Nuts got this time around.

Afaik regarding Sony vs Nintendo thing, one of the major draws of CDs was the relatively low cost to produce vs cartridges, which meant bigger profit margins for PS1 than in N64. This is also I think why a lot of PS1 games were $50 while N64 games could go for upwards of $80. Ease of development and available storage space (much more for CDs at the time) were also pretty important

Shit their pants in anger

Imagine if 2pac was alive to play Fortnite.

I put my nicotine gum in shirt pockets.

“How do you do, fellow incels??”

I’m so sorry that happened to you and I hope you can recover

Also pits really are the best, aren’t they? Here’s a pic of my pit/lab mix:

We Are The Union - Morbid Obsessions

The Cramps - I Was A Teenage Werewolf

The Raveonettes - Attack Of The Ghost Riders

Ministry - Every Day Is Halloween

Echo & The Bunnymen - The Killing Moon

The Monochrome Set - Eine Symphonie Des Grauens

The Specials - Ghost Town

Siouxsie And The Banshees - Spellbound

And if you want some Halloween music that’s a little more spicy…

Diamanda Galas - The Litanies Of Satan

Be gay or get the fuck outta my way

Ah ok. Sorry, I misinterpreted this and wasn’t sure if I missed something or needed to double check what was being said.

I get that, but I don’t get the cringe part.

Maybe I’m missing something, but why is this cringe exactly? Seems like he’s describing the evils of colonialism and why it needs to be destroyed.

We don’t need a majority of marginalized people to go fash. We just need enough and I think the Democrats doing a genocide while most of their base still willing to vote for them is going to go a long way to legitimize fascist policies, especially if that party continues to choose the triangulation strategy.

To be a little more clear, I think this type of liberal fascism absolutely will continue. What I was trying to say is that I don’t think we’ll see an openly fascist government like in Nazi Germany where undesirables are hauled off to death camps, since I just don’t think that really fits with present day US. The sort of thing we’ve already seen and continue to see will still be there, though, and likely will continue on its current trajectory.

This is for the US specifically. Ok so I’ve thought about this A LOT and my best prediction, avoiding both wishful thinking and doomerism, is that I don’t think those who are openly fascist will be able to turn the country into Nazi Germany. The US is just too diverse and that kind of blatant fascism likely will only fly with a minority of white chuds. This is especially true of the younger generations who would need to be co-opted in order to enforce it, since old people are generally not the best when it comes to fighting wars, either internal or external. As it stands now, younger generations are increasingly more diverse and increasingly have shifted left in their views, which would make co-opting them difficult, and an example of this at the present time is the issue the pentagon has been having with military recruitment. They (the fascist right) really don’t have the numbers on their side. Remember when US marshals under Trump tried to subdue Portland? That was a complete and utter failure, and it’s only one city. Imagine if they tried that in every major US city.

So yeah, I could be wrong but I don’t think open fascism is likely. What’s more likely imo is a continuation of the dysfunction we’re already seeing, which means more stuff like mass shootings, terror attacks, etc. by chuds, more quiet “liberal” fascism that pretends the US is a functioning democracy, and potentially more Balkanization. The US is also going to be facing more and more pressure on the world stage as China passes it up economically and militarily. I think all this combined will lead to a worsening situation and increasing destabilization, but again I think open fascism isn’t all that likely to succeed.

For Europe I’m less certain, but some of the same arguments apply I think. The US is the lynchpin holding the current global order together, so once they start to falter, Europe may starting looking to boost ties elsewhere, such as with China and Russia who may have more to offer. Also open fascism in Europe would likely threaten the EU, which it seems would not be the best outcome for the ruling class, so I think they’d likely lean towards EU stability over nationalism in individual EU countries, but that’s just a guess.
