On each side people are voting who they believe is the "lesser evil". A third party doesn't really need much popularity to start a landfall

That's a solid point. They are both shit. Proof: they alternate and things keep getting worse for US and outside of it (as result of US policies or direct wars)

My party is slightly less bad than yours is the worst argument you can put. Be honest, they both don't care about us.

I hope this person and trans supportive conservatives start opposing slimy republican politicians.

The difference is that this affects his voters' (the ones with any money) place in the hierarchy. If their retirement accounts zero out, they're no different from the poor people they consider themselves above and made so many choices to separate themselves from. If they introspect a little bit, they might even say "then what have I been working so hard all this time for?"

The dems become the rational alternative. These Trump voters can hold their nose and vote for a little less brutality on the trans folks and a little more DEI lip service as long as they stabilize the market.

Meanwhile ofc the dems are likely to keep 80% of the immigrant deportation policies, tax cuts for the rich, etc.

Gavin Newsom? He does not need republican votes to win in a blue state.

We’ll see in 2028. Until then, they voted for this. They got exactly what was advertised. I’m happy they’re fucked, along with all the centrists and moderates. I hope you all lose every. Single. Penny.

it's so upsetting to me that so many people don't realize how bad things are (even with all the proof in the world) UNTIL they are directly affected. so upsetting

There are several fake text generators so I don't trust any 'screenshots' with only one timestamp, especially one for 1am :/ why are you both up at the same time to exchange messages that fast

I can believe exchanges like this are happening, I'm just also fully aware that people like making up fake Everybody Clapped posts too, and this strongly looks like one of them

There’s a good What Now with Scott Galloway.

I’ve always been enamored of Trevor Noah’s comedy but his daily show didn’t draw me in. This podcast though, mostly, is thoughtful and insightful.

Galloway is great, he’s rich but he’s pretty no bullshit in how he talks about it. And men, in this podcast.

Their discussion offers better perspective and long game insight than this guy.
