Why can’t we have both? It’s obvious, dare I say a given, that most “influencer savvy” leftist viewers already understand that part of any narrative being pushed is being financially backed by someone else or a bigger message from “the higher ups” in their party.

Is the DNC looking like a busted up Toyota Prius in an era where many independents don’t give two shites about Al Gore/Obama vernacular? Yes. Is it wrong for tired “BlueAnon Demagacrats” in our little bubbles to also expect a bit more context or comparison as we wade through a fascist frog boil?

Ken found a scoop. What did your comment add to the existing knowledge of literally everyone on Bluesky?

In self reflection, I suppose just more “rabble rabble” while I procrastinate replacing a cracked presta valve on my cycle in the garage.

Also, Ben Shapiro has an organic audience regardless of funding. Olivia Julianna does not. The point is that they're trying to give the impression that there's an enthusiasm for Newsom that doesn't exist outside of paid influencers and Bluesky blue MAGA scolds like you.

I understand your point about there being a highly fertilized grass roots message building around Newsom. I’ve always held the feeling that he follows the barometer of whatever-is-best-for-Gavin. Do I think others who aren’t “blue maga” are expressing the same enthusiasm as liberal bubbles? No.

Maga will have to implode from within before any single candidate of actual substance is able to permeate each of our neighbors’ unique algo-ecosystems. Besides, this entire Newsom project right now is essentially yet another DNC realtime A/B testing program. Am I wrong?
