Notice how every time Musk is criticized for being a toxic piece of shit, one of his parents or some other authority figure sticks up for him?
Guaranteed that that's the way it's been his entire life, and that's why he's never outgrown being a petulant, reckless, self-absorbed, blameshifting teenage edgelord.
Discworld's fine by me.
And that after that we got a new DNC chair which completely changes the organization?
I'm calling bullshit on that too.
The time for leadership is right now, when the US is facing the greatest threat in modern history and the Democratic party is at the forefront of organizations that can and should step up.
And they very much have NOT. That, all by itself, amply proves that while the names may have changed, the organization hasn't. Even in this extreme hour of need, they've painfully obviously chosen to do fuck-all.
I'm entirely comfortable presuming that the neoliberals have never let go, and they're already astroturfing their counter to the inevitable criticisms that are going to come when they yet again run on a platform of being not the Republicans, and of being just barely to their left. Just as they've done in the past, they're going to blame their inevitable failure on us. Just as in the past, it's not going to be that they're corrupt sacks of shit wholly owned by moneyed interests and willing to lose an election rather than risk reducing the flow of soft money - it's going to be that we didn't go ahead and support them anyway.
I have zero reason to believe that this whole song and dance about a supposedly new and progressive DNC is anything other than just a new spin on the same old con job.
I'm calling bullshit on this.
There's no possible way that Biden or any of his people could let or not let Harris do anything. They had no actual control over her campaign.
The only outsiders who had any control over her campaign were the DNC and the party establishment - the same pieces of shit who torpedoed Sanders in 2016 and 2020,.
I'm 100% certain that this narrative is coming from them, trying to dodge the blame they so richly deserve by pinning it on the senile guy.
Musk never outgrew 8th grade.
He's still in there, day in and day out, doing everything he can think of to try to get the other kids to think he's cool, and still just making himself look like that much more of a creepy, pathetic douchebag.
What he meant is that nobody rich and white died.
Nobody else counts.
Agreed on both counts.
And on another note, I took a gamble there by just referring to "Bob," and it's cool that that worked.
"I can't believe I used to like these guys."
Proactively trying to massage his own place in history, after he and Trump lead the US all the way down into the mass arrests, concentration camps and mass graves stage.
All I get from this is that right-wingers are more likely to be so stupid that they rely on somebody else to tell them what to think.
I'm getting tired of Pelosi's transparent attempts, by offering up insipid advice and critiques to the younger generations of neolibs, to distract from the fact that her main accomplishment in her own career was using inside information to build up her stock portfolio.
You had your chance bitch, and you sold us out for your own privilege. Just go crawl off into a hole somewhere and rot and leave the rest of us the fuck alone - we're busy dealing with the crapsack world you helped build.
