    100%. My job is to cover city government and that is the easiest way to get a foot in the door to cause change.

    The Kansas city council I cover was fairly right wing and they fucked things up. Some lib/left people with no government experience, but a good message, were able to use that and now can be a voice for others. A councilmember is now part of the Kansas legislature. As others have said, it takes small steps, but it makes all the difference.

    This was the conversation we had with our kids (age 8) this morning and it helped me feel better.

    They woke up asking if Kamala won and we told them no, Trump won, but reassured them that our family wasn't under direct threat and there are a lot of other things we can and will do together as a family, and with other like-minded families in the community, to help bring the world closer to our vision for it.

    like when I get off work I have got to find the clip of a guy saying he was gonna vote Kamala then she didn’t do Rogan. you can try to convince me that guy is an outlier but I don’t buy it. Again this didn’t cause her the election but it certainly did not help

    The reach that the wwe has is insane and the age demographic isn't far off from a majority of these stats we're seeing.

    Not doing populism and sticking to the norms of tradition doom the Democratic Party.

    I think Democrats have a better chance now in 2028 with a fresh candidate than a 2nd Kamala term.

    this nine inch nails concept record about a facist/religious govt seizing control of the US, seems eerily accurate right now, lyrics are kind of scary true

    Trumps appearance on Theo Von and Andrew Schulz had huge implications and those two deserve to be buried under The Hague

    Yep. If Trump does even a little of what he says he’s going to do he’s going to be super unpopular too and people will want a party change
