God and thinking about it even a little bit:

Of course deplatforming works, you fuckface! Why did Elon buy twitter if not to secure a platform? It is surprising you managed to write anything at all, you stupid goblin.

$1T-worth

Ahhh yes. After putting all my money into blockchain I’d forgotten how to count that low

Liberals: vote for us, we are diet fascism, we are the lesser evil! We reduce harm!

It’s been the siren call for the last 400 years.

My radicalisation just continues and deepens.

What deplatforming actually happened that this writer is referring to? “We didn’t deplatform anyone. Therefore deplatforming bad” ???

Makes sense. Same slop, different slophead

This is like 30-90% of why I’m a mars hater. Not only should we rehabilitate earth first, the fact is we are dehabilitating it instead and are not making any meaningful effort in the other direction.

Does this influence your analysis at all?

Apologies for the screed:

Quick recap:

2016-2020: executive orders every day, non-elected positions being captured by conservatives, dems just hand-wringing and tweeting. but Dems get lucky with a pandemic and trump loses

2021-2024: weekend at biden’s.

Where was the election reform? The dismantling or reform of the electoral colleges? The extra seats on the SC? Bribing the public with stimulus packages to boost the economy?

Remember when we pushed Biden left? Remember when the dems preserved abortion rights, prevented the invasion of ukraine, and stopped bankrolling Israel’s genocide?

“exercise your democratic rights and voice by voting for our candidate that wasn’t democratically chosen as our candidate”. “vote blue and do not voice any critical thought”. “any vote that isn’t for the party that didn’t meaningfully reverse or prevent conservative actions is a vote for trump”.

In sum: the bad guys didn’t do anything new.

The closest we got to a trump loss was some republican spook who went to a trump rally with a gun because it was closer than the harris rally.

My hope is that either more progressive third party options become more viable OR the dems finally understand that being essentially republican is a bad strategy and actually become progressive. I know the reality is that the dems will learn nothing from this as they have clearly learned nothing from 2016.
