It is September 15. Biden has declined to do 15 pushups for NYT. They are endorsing the abstract concept of Youth for President. Trump, just out of frame, is listing NYT columnists he intends to have Seal Team 6 assassinate

It's honestly absurd to me to think that Elissa Slotkin being 2-4 points ahead of the Republican at this point in the Michigan Senate race coexists with Biden supposedly being doomed in Michigan. That's some real malarkey!

Yeah. The US has seen a fairly substantial (for this country and in worldwide context both, I think) public health effort to discourage smoking, almost all indoor spaces ban it now... and it took decades for habitual smoking rates to drop to 10% or so. Long tail, arguably generational change.

I think a lot of antiwar people (in the US especiallly) are desperate enough for allies across the political spectrum to not draw the line between conservative "antiwar" attitudes talking about "nationbuilding" as the problem with Iraq and Afghanistan and their frequent admiration for Israel.

Another way to put it is that there's a segment of the American right-wing which recognizes that the American framing of our international political hegemony as alliances and international organizations imposes reciprocality on us and they don't like that we have obligations to allies.

The takeaway I have from this piece is that Republican "anti-interventionists" aren't opposed to militarism, they're opposed to what they see as the use of American power on behalf of people they consider to be unworthy. The one guy's personal conversion narrative is instructive there.

There should probably be some kind of project to track these minuscule accounts and how frequently they change their livery/display names and presented ideology. I think you could draw some interesting conclusions from that.

There have been a lot of "leftists" I've seen posting but they're all tiny accounts that seem transparently trolling or wreckers at absolute best. The real-world has been all committed centrists. Strange, that.

The people posting that the polls are fake are extremely unlikely to be making decisions about campaigning, so unless you have a deeply paranoid fantasy that all posting in support of Democratic candidates is controlled by Democratic campaign operatives...

Without scolding in Parker Molloy's mentions: this line of thinking assumes that online posters are actually Democratic campaign policymakers, because "is the a plan really to just go 'shut up, the polls are wrong'?" is a deranged fucking question to ask.
