This is why fake bothsiderism is so dangerous and is actually an enabler of what all the bothsiderists claim to abhor.

So anti-trans too?

Sex trafficking investigations stalled and prosecutions declined in the past six months because of staffing shortages, funding cuts and immigration enforcement, according to Reuters interviews with 25 former prosecutors, current agents and victims' advocates.

Given how many neurodivergent people are involved in science & medicine, particularly the research sector, it is far more likely accurate to say autism causes vaccines.

In other Michigan news, the state looks set to elect it's first transgender lawmaker. Joanna Whaley won her Democratic primary and will compete in November for a state house seat, beating a primary opponent who tried and failed to disqualify her for not running under her deadname

No notes.

Yeah. As a nation we really did a number on ourselves allowing Trump to beat Clinton in 2016.

i love this idea that has been perpetuated somehow where Democrats calling a press conference would be like "interrupt all channels! someone is saying something in politics! and it's going to be taken seriously!" and also how in fact these press conferences happen daily & are ignored

Did the 2007 WGA strike bring about the downfall of America by bringing "reality tv" to the fore?

I'm mostly speechless here. Apparently the glorious revolution is more important than people's lives. Or this is all or nothing / perfect is enemy of the good style thinking. Whatever it is, this is why I sometimes find myself punching left when I prefer to always be punching right.

Would love to know what are the many things you believe MAHA is right about?

Mentioned in passing here, Deism is entirely off the list. Yes, the religion of Founding Fathers Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, George Washington, Thomas Paine and Ethan Allen is no longer recognized as a valid religion at all by the Department of Defense.

Does anyone know why Ilhan Omar voted against aid for Ukraine? She was the only Democrat that voted Nay in the House.

Once again for those with fingers in their ears: The parties are not the same.

Whelp, I'm an actual college student surrounded by other college students, not faculty. Maybe they share things more honestly with me than they do you? Also, I'm in STEM classes so maybe a different viewpoint.

I notice you left off the important part, current college student discussing my experiences with Gen Z college students in my classes. I'm sure that was an unintentional oversight though, not intentional, right?

@booksandbows.bsky.social still a chickenshit Nah, I'm telling you my lived experience actually being a college student right now differs with your "go to any college campus" post. Sure, some students at some campuses disagree, and I'm not saying any of us wouldn't boo that guy, but you're wrong.

I've got news for @booksandbows.bsky.social I'm an older adult back in school because I'm changing careers and this idea that college campuses hate AI is very out of touch. Also, posting shit and blocking all replies and quoting is pretty chickenshit.

Stuck somewhere still trying to pretend Platner would make a good Democrat?

In The Odyssey, Odysseus has to choose between navigating close to Scylla (a monster) or Charybdis (a ship-swallowing whirlpool) He doesn't find some secret way to break that dichotomy, he doesn't give up and refuse to make a decision He goes by Scylla because fewer people die

Kamala inspired a Republican to campaign FOR her and that was disqualifying. Platner actually VOTES for a Republican for years and he’s the progressive we’ve been looking for!

Remember when we told y'all the courts were on the ballot in 2016 but y'all didn't like Hillary and gave Trump a chance? Oops. www.aclu.org/press-releas...

This is how you do it⤵️ name the person/ party to blame in the headline and top of the story. “Over 2 million fewer people are receiving federal food assistance since Republicans in Congress cut benefits last year” www.huffpost.com/entry/snap-f...

Just listened to Schumer on Morning Joe. The man is much better than you’d think from all the crap posted here.

I haven't yet seen a reaction from Trump over his defeat at the hands of his own Supreme Court. We must still be in the throwing ketchup phase.

Trump tariffs struck down! So there IS a line the SC won't cross for him.

Republicans cut $187 billion from SNAP, meaning less food assistance available for Americans in need even as jobs disappear. Trump’s biggest legislative achievement is taking food away from hungry Americans and giving the money to the uber wealthy. https://ow.ly/xuLB50Y6smV

If you think "holding elected officials accountable" means attacking Democrats for shit REPUBLICANS AND TRUMP DID, or attacking Democrats for not doing things they legally don't have the power to do, you are as ridiculous and moronic as all the MAGA voters out there.

Right? They always come at us with their "earn" bullshit, but we're supposed to hand this shady af guy the leadership of our party just on their say so. He showed us what he's about in 2024. Nope.
