Honestly more likely to break through than most messaging

One of the problems I've always had with the left (I'm a queer-ass lefty) is they talk like a cover letter written by AI. They're treading carefully, trying to appeal to everyone, and sound like the soulless middle managers they are. The most iconic thing Kamela said, to me, is when she called the republicans weird.
I hope things like this become more common. I want to hear what people really think so I don't feel like I'm going crazy alone. Be more like Bernie. Hell. I would love it if Bernie dropped some fuck yous and bitch asses.
- The most iconic thing Kamela said, to me, is when she called the republicans weird.
  And that wasn't Kamala. That was Tim Walz. I mean, yes, she said it, but she got that messaging from Walz.
  
  ...and then Kamala got advice from Nancy Pelosi and centrists to "tone down the 'weird' rhetoric" and focus on courting moderate Republicans, and her campaign fucking tanked. Couple that with the DNC not allowing a single Palestinian supporter to speak during the convention, and it was ruined for all of us. She had all the momentum of a bulldozer, initially, and swindled it by putting faith in crotchety, old, dinosaurs who refuse to entertain progressive ideas as they usher in a new tRump era of misery that may never end.
- I just wouldnt call those ghouls "left". They are center right as far as the rest of the world is concerned. Their job is to maintain the status quo and make sure rich people stay rich and poor people stay poor.
  
  The US democrats are 100% center right and saying center is maybe already a stretch
- 100%. We need people like Mick Lynch
- People should really learn to understand that there is a lot more nuance to be had around politics. Having criticism on somebody doesn’t mean you sight up to “the other side”.
  Thank you for sharing your criticism

Elon Musk is EVIL. He is dumb, arrogant, a dick, and a bad parent, but a lot of people are those things. What sets him apart is he is EVIL. Evil has no place on MY planet. That's what you need to be telling yourself.
- What does that even mean? Evil is a silly adjective tied to a bunch of mumbo jumbo religious rhetoric.
  Use adult words: he's a narcissist and void of empathy. He is dangerous and a threat to America.
  
  evil is putting your desires before other people's needs or wellbeing. it's an important distinction and needs to be used regardless of religious context.
  
  The concept of evil does not emanate solely from religion. While religious traditions often frame evil in relation to divine will, morality, or supernatural forces (e.g., Satan in Christianity), secular and philosophical perspectives also address evil independently of religious contexts. Secular moral frameworks define evil as extreme wrongdoing or harm, often tied to human actions or systemic issues, without invoking supernatural elements. Philosophers like Immanuel Kant have proposed purely secular theories of evil, focusing on moral failures rather than divine aspects. So in ithe euros it’s not dilly but religious, but is a useful multifaceted concept that’s widely understood .land thus useful for discussions (without having to resort to cause or impossible-to-diagnose from afar personality disorders
- What sets him apart is he is EVIL.
  He's an absolute piece of shit. But if you think he stands above Donald Rumsfeld or Steve Bannon or George Shultz or William J. Casey or Samuel Alito on the Evilness Spectrum, you're suffering from profound recency bias.
  The history of evil shits running this country goes back a long, long way. Elon's just the latest to claim the mantel. And its safe to say he won't be the last.
  What sets him apart is the recklessness and the fecklessness of his actions. He's jamming code updates into a 60 year old system without bothering to bug check them first. Very real possibility he bricks a significant portion of the Treasury software suite before he's done. Prior administrations had an eye towards continuation of careers and legacy of their terms. This administration is treating the term as a Smash-and-Grab, with an eye towards fully expropriating the functions of the federal government to the private sector.
  
  He's a special category.
  Lots of people are evil because they want to have more than anybody else.
  Elon already has more than anybody else in the history of the planet, and he's getting more evil.
  
  Well, if we're talking about "this country", he may be the last.

Is this real??? (Ohpleaseohpleaseohplease let it be real…)
- It is, here's the exchange on his own Bluesky account

  Seperately he also posted this before that exchange
  Marjorie Taylor Greene literally showed a dick pic last year in our Oversight hearing, so I thought I'd show one as well: a picture of President Elon Musk.

  Thank you for your excellent work. Much appreciated.
  
  How did CNN let them say "dick" on the air??

  Thank you!!!

  That’s unfortunate to hear overall, and thank you for calling it out, but all things considered, this still feels like a breath of fresh air (or at least not-so-fetid air).

Truth is a rare event in politics. Lets cherish this gem!

Calling someone a dick doesn't fix any problems but is an effective way to get on camera, so mission accomplished. And some people will think saying that is pro-Musk but it's not, it's pro "maybe actually DO something instead of just saying shit to get your face on the news!"
- When in the legislative minority, getting attention on camera is one of the tools you do have. Make the media focus on what you want it to focus on and create the larger pushback to republicans
  Dem US House reps like Garcia have much fewer procedural tools to slow down Republicans compared to US Senators. Without republican support, the amount dems in the house can do is rather limited.
  Where house dems will have the most influence is with the budget since Republicans have historically been unable to get themselves to all agree and relied on dem votes. On that front Garcia is fairly clear that he's not going to give into what Republicans are demanding right now
  I plan to give Republicans ZERO votes for any of their budget proposals. They are raiding the social safety net and folks want to work with them? ABSOLUTELY NOT.

  Since almost everything is happening through executive orders, I'd say congressional Democrats actually have no procedural tools available right now.
  The shrewd move by Republicans would be to just avoid advancing any legislation (since the Dems could try to block it) and just let Trump accomplish all of their goals by fiat until the courts stop him.

I believe this is what kids these days call "Based as fuck"

Believe it or not, off to Guantanamo.

He's not wrong, but I don't know what it's going to accomplish when the GOP and their supporters have no shame
- Did you think the same thing when Tim Walz called Trump "weird"?
  
  It annoyed them a bit but it didn't really dissuade people from supporting Trump and Vance, and I think they'd mind the label "dick" even less than that, so again I don't really know what it's going to accomplish. People were told they're fascists, told they're weird, they didn't care then, they won't care now.

PLEASE tell me this is real!!
