Klobuchar might actually hate Pete more than I do. She’s awful for a host of reasons, but for this, and only this, I can give her some credit. 

Dude is truly dedicated to Posting Through It. It’s amazing.

Here massive incompetence is materially indistinguishable from “conspiracy”; they’ve both had the same impact. One thing is for sure, though — fuck that little rat Buttigieg. His current strategy relies on lessening weighting of the overwhelmingly nonwhite satellite caucuses to preserve his SDE lead. What a slimeball.

Impeachment was a massive fucking joke from the outset and ends as an even bigger one. Not that most presidents aren’t literal criminals of some stripe or another, but extra kudos to Dem leadership for conducting this on the narrowest possible grounds, showing the one sin you might ever possibly be held accountable

It’s OK. He still didn’t win, just some standard-issue Dem bullshit here.

Is it really such a wild stretch, given the histories of the involved parties and their various organizational and monetary connections, to think that a combo of incompetence and active malice is at play here?

Seriously, imagine telling a Palestinian woman she can’t boo Hillary fucking Clinton of all people. Just incredible stuff.

Pete’s CIA handlers have literally overthrown governments on pretexts flimsier than what happened in Iowa last night. Fuck that little rat.

No, one of the many 100% legit objections to the caucusing process is it’s exclusion of those very demographics. This year (I think they’re new?) they’ve introduced “alternate caucuses” to represent people who can’t make the primary ones — the first one was held outside a poultry plant earlier today. Still, not a

It’s nice that some people that can afford to take a whole day off

Believe me, I get it. One of the most pernicious aspects of our setup here is the tendency of movements to shrivel once they enter the realm of electoral politics, jettisoning demands, conforming the battlefield to the slimmest conceivable margins, and spinning these profoundly small victories as the sum of what’s

Hah, my great hope is that we get to the point where people actually start looking into the meaning, realize they’ve been fed a bunch of bullshit ruling-class propaganda for most of their lives, and join a 150-year-plus worldwide movement for liberation and equality — but yours wouldn’t be terrible either!

They’ve been attacking Democrats as socialists for the entirety of my adult life, and while I, personally, wish that were in any way reflective of reality, I think fewer and fewer people find it the scare line it used to be. 

Her policies aren’t as good, she doesn’t have a strong history w/anti-war or movement politics, and she’s a vocal capitalist. That’s pretty much it for me, at least. I also think suggesting she has “basically no downsides” is a somewhat...rosy view of things. 

True, but sometimes when I close my eyes I can envision a tiktok of him frying in napalm for the rest of eternity.

Love to feign outrage and tone police an unapologetically outspoken left-leaning woman of color because she dared express anything other than humble reverence toward the living avatar of imperialist white feminism.

Yeah like...how ridiculously credulous would you have to be at this late date to think this could’ve turned out any other way?

Almost as if they never really supported it in the first place and were disingenuously attempting to secure some progressive bona fides, you know? I mean I think Harris walked it back literally the day after she raised her hand.

By what rubric are Booker or Harris progressive? Not being snarky just...not a term I’d associate with either of them given their closeness with the carceral state, finance, school privatization, and foreign policy stances.
