I mean seriously, it's like complaining about stepping on rakes while continuing to sprint through a field of rakes.

In an ironic twist, the defining characteristic of socialists in America, is also one of the defining characteristics of being American: "Butbutbut ... MY socialism is bigger than YOUR socialism."

Give it a rest people ... ORGANIZE!

For a more nuanced discussion of this topic, please see my friend Bjarne Knausgarde's blog "Notes From Disgraceland." There, he discusses:

The political subject of late fascism is an updated version of the old one. The industrial worker- citizen, the authorized emblem of post-utopian depoliticized post-war modernity, now appears in the guise of the forgotten men, the non-synchronous people of the political present[10]. He encapsulates the virtues of petro-masculinity: A patriarchal, weapon-carrying and 2 amendment-worshipping male, defined by manufacturing, motoring, his tie to fossil fuel presents a particularly uncomfortable configuration in the light of climate change and urgency for reducing or eliminating dependency on conventional energy sources, which creates an urgency to imagine a new barricaded lebensraum for the heteronormative family protected from the deviant other, which bundles together economic, geopolitical, religious, racial, and genital into a comprehensive crisis of order and allows fascism to emerge as a candidate for its restoration.

And now, in the most (mo)ironic twist ever, they are saying hurricane Helene was intentionally created to lower republican turnout in the election. No, seriously.

  1. Polls are unreliable and the press will always make it “horse race” because not to do so means foregoing revenue.
  2. Nearly all the major media outlets are owned by people who have said they’ll vote Trump.

In other words … follow the money.
