And you're currently desperately flailing about for a scenario where defacing a statue of a Jewish genocide victim isn't antisemitic.

"What if I invent an extremely unlikely scenario where it would be debatably not-antisemitic, and then assume that's what happened? Occam? Never heard of him."

PSA for those who may not know - That's "Conservative" with a capital 'C', as in the Jewish rabbinical movement, which is in general pretty politically liberal. Not the small 'c' conservative political party, which would be ... very out of character for the Rabbi.

Only if it's a cause of death that people don't generally associate with old age. If he dies an old-person-death, it retroactively vindicates the "he's too old" narrative. If he gets hit by a falling safe, it short circuits that narrative, and potentially creates a rally-around-the-flag effect.

Great. So then what am I missing? Because if we agree that the press will let Trump get away with murder and jump on Biden's smallest gaffe, then why do we disagree on whether Biden merely needs to be better than Trump?

We can argue about the specific standard to which the media holds Biden, but we have to acknowledge that it's a fundamentally different standard than the one to which they hold Trump.

Counterpoint: He _has_ been better than Trump, pretty consistently, but that hasn't been good enough for the media.

Same for the "I have Nazi friends and they're perfectly nice people" bullshit. Either they're not a Nazi or they're not your fucking friend. The idea that calling for genocide is fine if you say "please" and "thank you" is absolutely fucking deranged.

Unsolicited advice time! Try surrounding your grilling area with marigolds, lavender, English mint, and sage. Spiders (and many other pests) apparently hate the scents and will stay away.

One of my favorite instances of this is Uncharted 4. Drake has someone at gunpoint, and the villain says something like "Relax, Drake's not a killer, he won't do it". Flashback 5 minutes to Gameplay Drake playfully quipping "THAT's your neck!" as he snaps a man's neck.

I wasn't even raised kosher, but my dad had weird emotional hangups about pork, and passed those on to me. What's fun is that they're super context-dependent. E.g., Bacon is a hard-no, but prosciutto is amazing.

This is like asking "why bother sweeping the floor today if it'll get dusty again tomorrow?" You make sure it stays at 6-3 today because it's a shorter path back to winning 5-4 tomorrow.

Honestly, I think the optimal scenario is that Biden dies an unnatural death, possibly even an assassination. It defuses the age arguments and creates a Rally Around The Flag moment for Harris. Yeah it's bleak but we're already in the realm of fantasy, so let's get wild with it.

Genuinely, I think the only way Biden could be replaced without tanking the election is if it's because he died of non-natural causes. Anything else vindicates the "He's too old" narrative.

Most Democrats in power are counting on #5 as the only real option. It is certainly one that could happen! But elected Democrats should be pushed to articulate their position in order to slowly build consensus for action (if we should be so lucky over the next few years).

Reminder that there are five ways to address the current SCOTUS problem. 1. Impeach some justices 2. Impose term limits 3. Expand the courts 4. Pass legislation limiting court prerogatives 5. Keep winning the presidency for the next 16 years or so while periodically also holding the senate.

Two things can be true. You're right, and also it's indescribably frustrating that you're right. Four years ago it was "Biden 2020 is the first step to Warren 2024", and now four years later it's "Biden 2024 is the first step to Someone Better 2028". This treadmill fucking sucks.

If Biden spends from now until November streaming half an hour of Balatro twice a day, five days a week, he wins in the biggest landslide any of us have ever seen. Call the segments "Morning Joe" and "Brandon After Dark".

I can't find the source, but I'm 90% sure that the FBI tried to infiltrate leftist and anarchist spaces during the Trump years, and found to their disappointment that most of what leftists and anarchists actually _did_ was endlessly re-litigate ancient beefs.
