    Interesting. I mean, I’m sure Bernie has faults but I don’t really see the point in attacking someone who created and is holding the only tent pole for, frankly, a reasonable middle of the road candidate (if we view him in comparison to the rest of the sane world).

    I get giving shit to Corey Booker. People are gray. I can list a handful of things that Corey has done lately that fit this meme.

    I honestly don’t even know what this meme is referring to maybe I’m out of the loop.
    But I agree with you, attacking Bernie isn’t the way. Reeks of agent provocateur.

    My guess is it’s a fresh wave of propaganda to wedge the progressives. What’s new.

    People don’t have to be perfect for us to join the cause and make it better. Don’t fall for it kids. We only get out of this if we ignore this bullshit and link arms.

    Ps: and look, I get it if Bernie isn’t left enough for some of you. That’s ok to feel that way and it’s probably true for a good lot of you. But attacking him ain’t gonna solve the massive fuckstorm we are collectively going to go through. We either quit bullshit like this or die from factionalization. Like every other movement has in the past 95 years.








  • I’ve got a friend in Quebec that told me that they’d “wish Trump would hurry up already and make Canada the 51st state.” I also know a Canadian trucker that joined the line during that trucker protest over…whatever it was they thought they were protesting.

    I was in Düsseldorf recently and met a UK resident (fluent in German) who was nuts for Musk.

    It’s a problem that has spread to many other countries. In fact, I’d argue that right wing populism is all part of the same swing and it’s only the most cartoonishly evil in America.






  • I noticed the “Psychic.” At first I thought that it was alluding to people like me who are lawyers but have a strategic mind and fairly accurately predict outcome with good data and information.

    But then I immediately realized they’re just extremely dumb and dangerous. Might also have been trying to say psychotic/psychosis.

    If it stays as written, then I would like them try to prove the existence of psychics.

    It’s a troll as you say. But having watched the law for a long time and being in the law, it is highly likely that a group that is more competent will get a hold of this idea, draft a real version, and pump that legislation out to every state legislature.

    We have that being homosexual is a crime still on the books in most places. We are only 40 years old from homosexuality being considered a mental illness. This sort of thing is absolutely on the table.
