Only if you're the fool who's listening to what's actually being said. If you understand that politics is about projecting confidence and steadfastness to your positions, no matter how contradictory they seem, then that's what success looks like, and a lot of people will just accept that.

Really though, the interview highlighted serious flaws in Harris' campaign, interview was 100% correct to call her out for using "a new path forward" as her campaign slogan while fully toeing the line when it comes to Biden's administration so far.

One of the interesting things to come out of Bob Altimeyer's research on authoritarians (rather, the people who support authoritarian regime) is that they typically support creating an out-group, even when they would be a part of that group

Everybody gets to do one genocide, that's how it works, right?

The border "crisis" is the perfect example of this: biden's policy on the Mexican border would make w blush.

It's only "not unquestioning support" in the literal sense, i.e. we're willing, rhetorically, to make vague gesters about red lines, but unwilling to put any of that rhetoric into action.

Alright, that's what I'm looking for, thanks!

Sure, but what's the quid?

Genuinely, they don't really seem to have much in common beyond being ideologically fascist, and if that's what it is, that's what should be discussed

Has musk even paid anything?

There was that time he said he'd donate to a pac, and then didn't.

Is this just because he owns Twitter and has a bunch of the same followers as trump? If so, does trump really think people would pick musk over him?

Genuinely this dynamic is really confusing to me.

I guess the only explanation I can think of is that Trump was always a stooge for the billionaires, and Elon has appointed himself their representative

This is way too coherent

There are 8.2 Conans O'Brien in the world right now

Probably one of those old arcade games, allegedly some were not designed to be possible to beat

Jokes aside, I'm talking about this monstrous stunt from DeSantis from a few years ago:

Apparently it wasn't a bus, my bad.

I see nothing in the bill about that second part

I hear sometimes there's buses to Martha's vineyard

That's the intended effect here.

Die or leave, either way they can pretend the problem's been solved

What did the camel do to deserve this?

Japan would like a word, but otherwise, fair enough

What? Like the World Series of Baseball?

I've been following Vaush for the past month or so, and have watched a few of his debates as well.

Overall, I find that I largely agree with him on issues like market socialism and on general liberalism (i.e. stuff like "the one good idea liberals have is individual rights").

I feel he maybe overuses accusations of fascism, but I can't really point to any particular case and stay no, it was wrong to identify this as fascist. I just might not be as willing as he is to accept that fascism is the second most widely held political ideology.

I also like that he's willing to go back to first principles and defend his ideology while accepting that it's a bit arbitrary, and he genuinely doesn't come across to me as patronizing about it.
