The fact that he doesn't deserve it is what makes it scary. Movies where everyone who dies had it coming is kiddie shit. See: M3GAN, which goes out of its way to show only "bad" people eating it. No thanks.

I remember reading studio coverage that was apoplectic about what Kaufman had done. You’d think he took a shit and wiped himself with the pages.

A lot of folks with "in our home we believe science is real" yard signs doing a whole bunch of magical thinking lately. "The president doesn't need to work after 8 most of the time" and "You're really voting for his staff" isn't gonna fly in swing states. Sorry. I really wish it would but it won't.

EVs will soon become so much cheaper than ICEs that everyone will ditch their gas cars all at once, sending the used car market into a death spiral. The last time this happened, Hollywood spent about a decade demolishing the excess stock via cheap TV car chases—a paradise we could regain!

If you steal $1000, you can be sent to prison. When health insurance companies steal $50,000,000,000, they get tax breaks, subsidies and government contracts, while the people they steal from die or go into debt. But keep blaming immigrants and poor people for rising crime.

Remember how the "retail theft crime wave" disappeared as soon as companies had to do their annual reports? That's because it's illegal to lie to shareholders.

Lawyers in my mentions are the most in denial about what happened at SCOTUS today. They're coming up with all kinds of perfectly logical reasons why Trump's state cases wouldn't be taken up by SCOTUS eventually.

Feels weird to have the Supreme Court essentially declare the country a monarchy and then open your email the next morning and get messages from like Taco Bell and Starbucks announcing their new products and rewards. I didn't expect American dystopia to be so banal.

The guy who's coalition is "strong" is losing in the polls to a comical loser, felon, and sex criminal. Politics have changed. We need to start rethinking what a winning candidate looks like on the left.

The thing I can't stop thinking about is this: I'm 48, and in my adult lifetime there has been one Republican who won the popular vote. But I will probably spend the rest of my life under the authority of a Supreme Court dominated by hard right conservatives. How is that democracy?

Obama was viewed as "cutting in line." Every down-ballot argument was made about him by centrists, couple with the argument - pushed by Clinton people - that America was not ready for a black president. This was obviously false, but served the agenda of folks who say nothing new is possible.

I mean, the first time he ran - when centrists said everything about him that they said about Bernie - the Democrats achieved their best down-ballot electoral results maybe ever? A supermajority? They didn't do great 4 years later but that's normal. No way to go but down from where they were.

I don't think you're being combative. It's cool. I get the reticence, and I'm not seriously suggesting Bernie should be president in the year 2024. But all these things you're saying about Bernie were also said about Obama by center liberals and he did alright.

We'll just have to disagree. Yeah, people like him a lot - me among them - but if he had different policies, his supporters would drop him. If Trump came out for Medicare-4-All tomorrow, all his voters would be right behind him demanding their free government healthcare. That's the difference.

I mean, change doesn't happen until you advocate for it. Advocating for good things is one of the biggest powers the president has. Bernie can't magically create the votes Medicare-4-All, but by making the case for it, you gradually get the public behind you. Change happens slow, then very fast.

It’s not a cult of personality - his supporters want the things he wants. If he stopped advocating for those things, his supporters would leave. See: Fetterman. As far as “government structure” and what it allows, democrats have learned helplessness. Things are impossible until they are possible.

There is a cult of personality around Trump, who doesn't actually believe in anything except making himself wealthy, staying out of prison, and drowning immigrants. Bernie is actually liked by most people and his positions are broadly popular, especially among Democrats.
