Okay, this place has been absolutely rancid for the past few days and doesn't really seem like it's on a path to improve any time soon. I'm gonna take a break, maybe come back later, maybe not. IDK.

So basically "We cannot afford to have any more big public fuckups" Which uh, true? But also like, there were several big public good performances in the days immediately after the debate so, shrug on all of that? NYT gotta NYT, I guess?

Negative press coverage bad for Biden? I'm sorry but that has been happening since 2020! They went on like a 1-2 week long crusade against his DOGS in 2021. If negative press was gonna sink us, it would've happened in 2022 or in any of the gorbillion special elections Ds *mysteriously* won.

And all the doomsaying here? Fucking bullshit. Pisses me off. It isn't the spineless cowardness of it. It's how all this screeching started last week and suddenly what Gaza? What's a Gaza? Never heard of it. Biden's old and has to be replaced, that's the new hotness! I don't fucking buy it.

We have seen for like 2 months now that trump rallies are anemic. Normal people hated him when they saw him on the debate. Biden being old is a known factor and at some point headline fatigue sets in on your avg person.

I'm gonna inject some hope. I think we're still fucking favored. We have seen very, VERY consistently that trump's floor and ceiling are both identical and not enough. We have several election-defining issues that favor the Ds. Warchest, GotV, Ads, every non-poll thing favors us.

Didn't the last poll say Trump was winning women and like having a once-in-a-generation shift on <29 y/o minorities? That doesn't pass a basic smell test.

After one of the infinite shitstorms here over the past 2~ weeks, I uninstalled bsky from my mobile devices. If I want to expose myself to this place, it is at my desktop. Nowhere else. Has done absolute wonders to not see people screaming into the void while in bed/relaxing/etc.

Apparently had a good post-debate speech and a good rally the next day, so it seems to be the case? But shrug, it's likely all this gets lost in the beer and bbq in 4 days time anyways.

That thought process removes trump from the equation. The televised "undecided" voter responses to Trump's performance was, "he's a hateful freak and we do not like him". For bad omens, that one seems worse? IDK. Maybe this is projection on my part from being exhausted with all the doom.

I getcha, I'm just not really sure about the ratios between the two groups online. The high-info online voter freakout is understandable to a point -- though the knowledge that we're a very tiny niche is a potent salve.

Question! How much of this is even remotely genuine? I've seen a lot of the freakouts coming from the same place as "Biden needs to drop out because of... gaza/railroad strikes/student loans/the color purple" How much is just the same song and dance just with a new hat?

I'm content to ignore it. RV poll with an incredibly leading question primed toward one specific candidate? That's just reeks of bullshit to feed on anxious dem clicks. If someone asked the same question in a month, I'd assume it would fall back to near pre-debate levels.

How much does MSM doomsaying matter? They freak out about Biden over everything. We've seen it for 2+ years. At some point it must become background noise. For us online people? Our opinions don't matter! Nor do our associates! We. Are. Not. The. Average. Person. We are the nichiest of the niche!

Really want to underscore that Biden called Trump a dangerous child to his face last night, the minority on the Court is calling out political machinations, and Congressional leaders are equally as vocal. The timid Democrats of my lifetime are very dead. It's past time we voted like it

A developing possibility is that the very small number of undecideds gently trickle towards Biden because theyā€™re totally uncynical while the panic from the most cynical people on earth sparks a ā€œhe needs our helpā€ response from small dollar Dem donors.
