politics

Literally anyone under 55 could probably beat Trump.

Yeah it would be really nice if there was a D that folks liked.. I'd love to see a landslide election. But those days are gone I'm afraid.

THO.. has there been a Democrat or Republican in the last.. 50 years that folks really liked?

Maybe Obama... But other than him...idk

FPTP needs to go before we can have earnest conversations about how milquetoast a politician Biden is.

God damn was that refreshing to read! I appreciate your enthusiasm! 🥂

GOPers are seriously unlikeable motherfuckers to start with

I dunno, the racism and simplistic explanations seem to be pretty likeable among a certain crowd

I mean, look at all of the conspiracy theories swirling about now.

Well said!

whoever has the most likes wins

Well, whoever spreads the most hates wins. I don't think even the Trump fans like Trump. They just think that Dems eat babies, want to turn them into femboys, or replace them with blacks and Jews or whatever.

I wouldn’t listen to it

I’m not a Swiftie. My sisters were big fans growing up, but I couldn’t care less about her music.

But when Midnights held all ten of the Billboard top 10 slots, and people were talking about it, I decided to listen to it on a walk with my dog.

The music isn’t amazing or anything, but it isn’t bad, either. It’s pretty standard modern pop, I would assume. But her lyrics are amazing. I’m not exactly sure why, but that album resonated with me, a man in my thirties (who admittedly prides himself on finding things to like about stuff). I listened to it twice that day, and I still listen to some of the songs on it on occasion.

I can understand why people get really into her music.

Anyway, all I’m saying is that if you do buy her album to thank her for saving democracy, it might be worth a listen. There is certainly better music out there, but also MUCH worse.

If you mix some Veritechs into this plotline, I think you have the makings of the next Macross series, and I'd go out and buy that for a dollar.

Same.

Every year, it gets tougher and tougher to take a stand on the coastal states. Literally. And, Florida's gonna be the first to pull an Atlantis. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Actually Latins in Florida are not a block. Young Latin voters tend to vote Democrat- older Republican.

I thought Latinos in general, not just in FL, tend to lean more conservative? For years there was the narrative that Dems would just wipe out Republicans if they got the Latino vote on board, but Latinos tend to be more conservative-leaning in general, are themselves against illegal immigration, probably trend more religious, and really haven't come out to help Democrats.

Democrats in general tend to try to pull in alot of groups that don't turn out to be very reliable voters. Oftentimes I think they're trying to do the right thing for these various marginalized groups, but then those groups just don't have their back when they're really needed. Youth voters might be getting a bit better in recent years, but that hasn't always been the case.

Cool, we'll take it.
