A veiled endorsement of rape if I ever saw one.

I choose to read that as "neither party speaks to my situation" rather than the indifference being an accident. There are a lot of reasons to care with how politics affect, well, everything, but that doesn't mean parties are involving the masses. No, they're actually doing an excellent job alienating them.

And that's just the non-voters. The only reason people even vote is to make things less shitty, not because they feel particularly moved by either party, which proves how alienation affects even committed voters.

All the money in the world, yet you choose to live in that depressing ass mansion.

Seriously, I've seen trailer park homes that are more uplifting.

I have no patience for IDF sob stories. End the genocide or shut the fuck up.

Conveniently it's always some outside force that causes Democrats to lose, never the Democrats themselves.

If the election depends on people outside your base mincing their words about your candidate maybe your candidate just sucks.

I just think it's funny how in their version of reality "tankies", a group with zero political representation in America, have any kind of sway over moderate voters.

It's truly QAnon levels of delusional.

Are the "tankies" in the room with you right now?

This assumes only Trump voters suffer from lead contamination. It's not any sort of political analysis.

Incoherent cultural views don't equal the political centrism of liberal coastal elites which skews tepid and corporate.

What most people care about is the bottom line i.e. affordability. Centrists just don't have an appealing answer to that since they are so beholden to capital.

This is not to say the far right isn't beholden to capital as well, but they're shameless enough to campaign on affordability anyway and it's a huge reason why Trump won.

Yeah, it requires actually winning and not listening to corporate consultants who insist standing for anything alienates the mythical moderate vote.
