Millions of people sat out the election because they couldn’t be bothered to vote for a corporate apologist. There’s nothing criminal about being stupid, but I think you’ll find I’m not. There’s absolutely nothing magical about splitting one in a two party system and ending up with three parties, it is in fact the most basic math. Whoever the Republicans run will be Trump, by the way, and I actually think that if it’s made clear to the DNC establishment ASAP that the rabble is sick of the normal playbook there wouldn’t be any need to take this strategy past the primaries. But go on with your unsupported knee jerk ad hominem. I have faith in democracy, let’s wait a bit and see what the people think.

Absolutely, and to be extra clear I wasn’t talking about the actual indigenous tribal areas that do exist there but the predominantly white mostly rural evangelical communities that are to my view analogous to the tribal areas in Afghanistan and Pakistan in the way that Neal Stephenson describes in the excellent book Fall: or, Dodge in Hell when he talks about Ameristan. No harm no foul, I’m glad there’s someone paying attention to the feed and vigilant against bad faith or racist commentary.

Also don’t forget to enfranchise Puerto Rico along with DC.

Absolutely. 2028 is counterintuitively not for “anyone but Trump” but for someone more radical than Bernie to split the votes away from whatever milquetoast garbage candidate the DNC dreams up and give them a wake-up call, possibly even ushering in a multiparty system along the way.

Not sure I said anything about race. But my intention was to highlight both the irony of the US asking for investment (ridiculous), and the fact that if investment was made it would be best deployed in the areas Trump considers his core base areas (which he has actually threatened to remove, in terms of defunding health care and education). The fact is that the US has systemically failed to invest in low income areas and particularly in public goods that benefit people of color and disenfranchised Appalachian communities in the Southeast. A call for investment at Davos is basically a call for bribes, and wildly disingenuous against the backdrop of pulling funding from WHO. If that’s not the kind of commentary you’re interested in I’ll be happy to take my attention elsewhere, and if I whooshed you with my quick wit earlier and somehow implied something racist, sorry, and I still don’t understand, feel free to clarify.

My money is on oil company assassin, FBI assassin, and Sirhan Sirhan being the legit killer respectively.

It would solidify my hunches that’s for sure.

Uh. What? “This is brand new” 😂🤡. Time to MAGA the democratic party hard left.

I mean to be fair the entire finance sector relies heavily on cocaine.

To be fair it is on it’s way to being a developing country so. We do need investment. Especially for education and modern medical care in the religious fundamentalist tribal areas in the south east.

You can get them from the county. Less than $30. Just go do it. All you need is the passport, cash, and an unsigned but filled out application.

If you don’t have this part done then maybe research it a bit more:

The real answer is to get so active in radical state level politics that we can flip the states rights narrative right back around and get what we want without firing a shot. The beautiful part of that strategy is that the MAGA freaks are already putting 110% of their momentum in that direction.
