Did he also run on a platform supporting the holocaust "because it's in the interest of our country and our ally" despite much of much of his constiuency and nearly the entire rest of the world saying otherwise?

Did his supporters call their fellow party members "stupid, single-issue voters" when they vehemently rejected said platform?

Don't worry they'll learn a lesson from this that they need to go further right yet again in order to beat the right in an election. Don't let the fact that they keep losing distract you from the fact that this is a winning strategy.

So now that the DNC predicably lost by running terrible neoliberal candidates like people were warned about and refused to acknowledge, you think it's now on me to reign in the Republican party? What a joke that people who refused to listen to reason and dug their heals in on failed strategies now want to make the messenger responsible for fixing their mess.

The DNC was our chance to hold them accountable, but they preferred to abandon their base and run on a platform of right-wing ideals and lost their opportunity to do so. We can now either form a new party that represents the left and try to make inroads in 2026 or blast the shit out of all the neoliberals in the DNC for the next two years (and beyond) until they expel these fake leftists from the party and maybe they'll start winning elections again.

I've had numerous back and forths with people about holding the DNC responsible for losing the election since it ended. What are you talking about?

I'm curious how long they can sustain this as it's probably a lot like WWII when the US commandeered a bunch of factories for the wartime effort. This isn't sustainable long term as those factories need to produce regular goods for the country as well plus I don't know how well the Russian people support the war so they may not have the same 'spirit' to win the war as we did here back in the '40s.

I'm pretty sure they recently changed to allow LGBT members along with toying around with integrating both boys and girls into troops since the girl scouts really only exists to sell cookies. I've seen lots of garbage on social media about how "woke" the Boy Scouts are now so they're gunning for the organization.

Wasn't ephedrine the drug used in all those diet pill commercials from the 90s/00s? The ones that caused anal leakage, liver damage and death?

Or ban it from being placed next to actual medicine. Go put it in the candy or soda aisle.

This was so infuriating during covid as it was hard to find children's cold medicine already and half the time you'd see a couple bottles of "Children's cold and flu" on the shelf, buy it, and get home before you notice "homeopathic" written in 3pt font along the bottom of the bottle. Shit's completely useless.
