"Buy, Buy, Buy My Darling" by the Pissfits

Ten years ago when I was browsing the bookstore, I certainly remember than instead of replacing the Vonnegut books that my dog ate, I was just indescribably enthusiastic about Chuck Schumer's book.

The Democratic Party is catastrophically bad at politics, and it’s a fucking miracle they ever win elections. Self-sabotage and snatching defeat from the jaws of victory are the main Dem strengths. There’s no reason why a party as shitty as the GOP should ever win anything, except that Dems suck.

I understand how people get so disgusted with guns they just say "ban them all", but that's not a workable policy proposal in the US. if you want regulation then you'd better have people writing those regulations who understand what a firearm is- in a technical and a legal sense.

My 1st job in the late 80s was in human rights. One of the biggest challenges was getting militaries in LatAm to go back to their barracks. One of the legacies of military dictatorships was that if the military could carry out the basic functions of the state, then who needs civilians in govt?

If you’re the side of: - capital interests - wealth as an indicator of virtue/the value of one’s societal contributions - free markets - “The nine most terrifying words in the English language are ‘I’m from the government and I’m here to help’” …you’re fucked. COVID just exposed you entirely.
Walker Bragman (@walkerbragman.bsky.social) reposted reply parent
The COVID-19 pandemic undermined the right in several key ways: 1) It showed us which workers are essential and empowered them. 2) It showed that the markets can’t solve everything. 2) It threatened GOP political prospects in a critical election. 4) Government relief proved popular and effective

The United States was founded on a godless Constitution that derives power from the people, not a deity, where everyone is free to follow any religion—or none at all. Christian nationalists like Beckwith want to rewrite history and impose their beliefs on everyone else.

Remembering today when pro-GOP media erupted with outrage over Kamala Harris' warning that Trump had plans to militarize the national guard and deploy them on the streets of US cities. Indeed, he had such plans. And now he's implementing them.
