I’m not a political journalist, so was gladly surprised at the community I found here last night. To Americans anxious about the upcoming elections, a key thing we learned in Brazil that might help you: DO NOT engage with the far-right online. Don’t share rage bait. Amplify your people. Ignore them.

Not to mention that Bolsonaro also requested the voting extension. Not to mention that Benjamin thinks that fraud is when more people are given time to vote. Not to mention that BJ should be parking cars at a Hard Rock casino rather than influencing public opinion.

This is fine... 🔥🔥🔥 'The UK is watering down rules introduced after the financial crisis designed to hold City bosses accountable for wrongdoing. The plans include a reduction in reporting for "lower-level misconduct" freeing 140,000 managers from extra checks.' www.theguardian.com/business/202...
decided to traumatise myself by checking r/conservative to see what they were saying about the amy acton ad... I had to do a search to find anything and there were two people spouting the Trump talking points but they were roundly being told to shut up and the chastisers getting upvoted for doing so

for the last few days I've had the same sick feeling in my stomach that I had after the cats and dogs comment he made on the debate stage in 2024... this stuff works because apparently there's still a contingent of people who believe it would be taken down if it wasn't true... naive people
apparently the fact that they will keep airing it and it's quite late in the midterm cycle some people will only see the ad and just believe it must be true or it would never have been made... because there are people who believe that... the kind of rubes that believe everything Donald Trump says

I was just looking up the local events at home in Ireland for Halloween this year and I found 'Halloween Hatchet Throwing' and I decided immediately that I'm not even gonna look it up and instead imagine the entire thing as a black and white @misterabk.bsky.social extravaganza inside my head

While talking about some golfer's Dick won/ didn't actively lose him votes in 2024 so I mean
Trump: "I'm studying his body. I've never studied the body of a man before. It's not my thing. Nothing wrong with it, of course. But it's never been my thing. But I looked at his ass. I said, 'His ass, shit, it's like a pile of muscle.' Then I looked at his legs and I said, 'Man, his feet are big.'"

What God are they talking about? Because it certainly has nothing to do with the teachings of Jesus Christ
It‘s kind of incredible that there’s vast amounts of replicable quantitative data that says being Evangelical makes you evil and despite its massive impact on politics we just… don’t talk about it all that much.
what the fuck is wrong with the white Catholics... mind you it explains why JD vance wanted to join up with them
This is a major, major talking point on the right. Elon Musk rails against "suicidal empathy" and the term has caught on among millions. They believe that society is collapsing because we are tolerating too much and not punishing enough.
