  • Primaries are for getting the candidates you want. General elections are for picking the candidate who is closest to your values. If you

    The 2026 primaries were over the last few months, progressives made some gains, the DNC turned all their guns on the progressives, their media telling boomers “Yeah, we want <progressive policy that helps everybody> and you want <progressive policy that helps everybody>, but imagine a conservative suburban woman who hates good policy. You should vote for who the Bailys would vote for in the general.”

    Since then the incumbents who didn’t get primary’d have been either passing ghoulish policy that will decrease their chances in the general election now that they’re safe from the left, or complaining about a twitch streamer.

    It was visibly false with Monster cables, do you know anyone with a 1080p+4K monitor setup you can look at? The difference is really obvious with multi-monitor setups. Hell just try reading small text, it has to be way bigger on the 1080 before your eyes are straining to read it.

    Also again, emulation, look really closely at a pixel on a CRT. Trying to copy the depth effects with 9 or fewer LCD pixels just isn’t possible.

    This should tell you there is a flaw somewhere.

    Maybe the perception of brownness comes from things that aren’t supposed to be brown and grey; nobody looks at a basketball court or a sun-bathed road and says “This is abnormally brown”. If Gears of War, CoD, FO3, Doom 3, GTA4 aren’t coming up, you haven’t calculated the thing they’re talking about.

    You know what causes progressives to not vote? Telling them to fuck off and supporting a genocide.

    There is no equivalent for liberals; liberals aren’t going to not vote because ICE isn’t hauling off enough of their neighbors or they don’t have to fill out enough forms and pay enough money to prove they deserve healthcare or that trans people don’t need to jump through enough hoops to get their medications.






  • Westwing poisoned a generation of liberals brains, many of whom ended up Obama staffers thinking that politics actually works that way.

    I still shutter having someone explain that Obama giving Republicans half the discretionionary budget instead of doing what the people who voted for him wanted was some kind of political masterstroke; either republicans would get on board and they’d work together to do what’s best for the american people, or voters would see how nice and civil the dems were and vote for them.
