3·1 year agoCan’t miss out on that NIMBY vote.
The real pedo bears are the friends you made along the way.
Sure, I’d be interested in an update!
Are you posting updates anywhere I can follow?
It’s due to a large chunk of the people
believingreligiously indoctrinated to believe a text can be infallible.If you start from that assumption, it’s a whole lot easier to understand why the constitution can be so rabidly defended from change and why the fantasy lore of its authors is rarely questioned.
Not directing this to you, specifically, but if you’re in the US and you feel similarly, please please please use this anger at this “slow” part of the political cycle to get involved in your local political scene.
This can look like uplifting people who align with your values in political organizations, volunteering in a specific candidate’s campaign to get them on the primary ballot, or even running for a local office yourself (yes you, even if you don’t think you’re qualified).
The people doing this “unsexy” work between elections are the people who eke out actual change. They always need more support during this time, and by becoming involved, you can see the impacts of your efforts, and get the right kind of people on primary ballots.
When these people win local and state offices, they build momentum (read: fundraising) and gain political experience they can leverage to run for even higher offices.
It’s still a lot of work, and it’s slow, but it’s the realistic, proven path to affecting politics when you’re not a nepobaby, a constitutional law professor, or a D-list celebrity.
All that being said, I very much support other activism for fighting the creeping threat of total fascism in the meantime as well.
Nice to see the thumbnail showing he’s still jacking off ghosts.
The royal “we”
Maybe they’re so big because no one has been made to read the entire thing, and thus, been irritated enough to shorten their own bills.
Fine. You can have it this one time. As a treat.
They wouldn’t regardless. The congressional GOP has his spray-tan dick so far down their throats, they’d rather choke to death than admit the emperor has no clothes.
If we ever had hard proof of insider knowledge, my money is on SCOTUS. Both because it’s easier to buy a branch of government by colluding with five useful idiots, and because there’s a GOAT on the SCOTUS staff who leaks their bullshit to the public.
How about both? I’m always down for access to education.
That’s my first choice, personally, and if she wins the primaries, that’d be awesome.
Otherwise, I could still get pretty hyped about a Walz/AOC ticket, which would pave a more conventional path to a 2032 AOC presidential run.
I saw a video of him sitting down to have an earnest conversation with hardcore Trump farmers and they left liking him a lot. He’s got that “common sense” Midwestern energy on lock and I can see him gaining a lot of ground with the blue collar and rural folks because of it.
If he has pro-hunting gun views like Bernie, he’ll be an amazing pick.
Can’t persecute you for sabotage if it just happens to coincide with proper office protocol.
I highly regard their journalism as well.
Just a reminder that 404 media is owned and run by its own journalists.
I’m tired of news that’s been filtered through a billionaire’s best interests.
Wait, so now they’re pretending to be concerned about journalistic integrity?
You’re right about the need to organize locally, but I don’t think it applies in this context, given local movements can realistically impact state and federal politics at a slow pace at the best of times (which is usually ok–they’re local organizations, after all).
It’s frustrating to find a lack of mechanisms to affect URGENT change to the federal government without the benefit of time, legal consistency, privacy, powerful allies, money and resources, (I could go on for ages).
