Today is a good day to remind everyone that we wouldn’t be here if the DNC didn’t get directly involved in their own primary to stop Bernie from being the democratic nominee even if it meant losing the election

The only reason I can think of for this news not being absolutely everywhere is that large media orgs don’t want to be seen as putting their thumbs on the scales a week before election day. And that’s cowardly as shit.

I’ve never said stuff like this but the DSA ‘left’ seriously needs to fuck so far off. The only way the DSA survives atp is if the DSA ‘right’ wins more representation on the NPC next convention

my comment on the national DSA trying to torpedo nithya at the last minute: fuck off, be a serious political organization, what the hell are you doing this choice is not close

50501 strongly condemns the transphobic policy positions espoused in Josh Turek’s campaign ad. We’re calling on @joshturek4iowa.bsky.social to stand with the trans community & attack the real threat to the safety of women & girls: the Trump administration’s cover-up of the Epstein trafficking ring.

based on ballot return data it seems like democrats have taken this to heart and republicans have not, which opens up the possibility of something very funny happening

The “something” in question was the workers themselves deciding by 1966 that they no longer wanted New Dealer welfare capitalism if it meant black Americans would benefit from it while anti-war protesters were free to burn the flag

the biggest presidential scandal in history but the political media largely acts as if it's not happening. hasan piker has received more mainstream political media coverage over the last 6 months than trump's connections with epstein has

These people really need to make up their mind whether conflating Israel and Jews is antisemitic or not because they sure love doing it to defend Israel

Incredibly telling he says this after Brazil and Serbia’s anti-authoritarian victories and not when right-wing candidates have won around the world. The best proof yet that his “worldview” is just being reflexively against and annoyed by whatever people on social media like.

Elizabeth Holmes is not the face of motherhood for incarcerated women. Jazmin Valentine wailed in agony for 6 hours in labor while staff and nurses LAUGHED at her. She had to resort to sliding her amniotic sac under her cell door to prove she was in labor.

Great, we live in Hell but at least the worst companies ever will still make money

Something is terribly wrong if you can say this days before an election and get away with it.

Brazil has a sports gambling problem that is just as bad, if not worse, than the United States. Lula won after banning the sports gambling platforms in between the first and second round of the election. Pretty amazing.

Lula now also to blame for Bolsonaro's corruption @nytpitchbot.bsky.social couldn't make this one up www.nytimes.com/2026/10/25/w...

This is an incredibly important point

Congrats to Lula on overcoming Mark Zuckerberg and Donald Trump to defeat Hospital Pervert Jr., even as his opposition literally blocked off roads and turned off bus service during election day. Fascists are scary but they are always, 100% of the time, ultimately gigantic fucking losers.

as other people have said, they wouldn’t work so hard to kneecap democracy if it weren’t a powerful weapon against them

@gabrielzucman.bsky.social: So let met get that straight: paying a wealth tax is impossible (“billionaires have no liquidity”, “it would be taxing unrealized gains”, “their wealth is virtual”) but one man paying half a billion to influence elections is possible. Did I understand well?

Amazing how after years of whining of how banning fascists would be "undemocratic", bans suddenly become an option when it's the left.

We tried "everyone is entitled to an opinion" for three straight decades and all we have to show for it is four thousand cases of measles and a death cult running the government. It's time for people who don't know what they're talking about to shut the fuck up.

People like Matt Yglesias treat the militarized border as an unchangeable reality and an automatic political loser when in reality it is an incredibly recent lurch to the right whose consequences are now in full view of the citizenry.

Again, it’s important to understand that the transgender terror did not arise organically from the public. It was imposed from above, by the world’s most hateful and poisonous media class.

Ah, the auto influencers have explained that this carbon fiber-wrapped ball, which sits right behind the driver's head, holds about 100kg of nitrogen pressurized to about 10,000 psi. Let me just go review the tolerances people found in their Cyber Trucks

The New York Times wrote articles that were like "the impossible-to-characterize elusive politics of Elon Musk / he's lost interest in politics" right before he became *literally the largest GOP donor in history* the next election cycle. Twice. Two times!

Every year transphobes say the wave of detransitions will begin any day now, and every year the number of detransitioners who will work with them, worldwide, remains in the low to mid countable-on-one-hand

I'm not some campist who's going to say we should all accept what's coming to us but we are at war with them and the way we still treat it as surprising that means they're at war with us is a little silly

It's shocking to me (it shouldn’t be tbh) that it’s possible for a human to say “protesting human rights violations is bad because it could hurt polling!” And take themselves seriously

people are acting like this is about AI bots hacking into people's bank accounts but it's actually about people who have given their AI agents access to their computer on purpose

republicans’ closing message could not be clearer: they are the party of pedophile rapists

Really feels like the larger issue here is that our politicians are still taking their cues from discourse on "x," a website largely built around the interests of racists and csam enthusiasts, and from which all normal people have long since fled.

Ramaswamy has produced an attack ad weaponizing the rape of his opponent, Amy Acton, when she was 12 years old. It features Acton’s mother, who abandoned Acton after she was raped by her step-father, fleeing the state with her husband. Here is the corporate money helping fund that ad.

Professional Republicans are creeps who want to inspect your kids’ genitals. Never, ever vote for a Republican.

no amnesty

Literally good. It’s better these people sit out than continue voting Republican
