  • The double standard for Harris and Trump has reached a breaking point | One candidate can rant about gibberish while the other has to be perfect.

    Jump

  • I hate to be a downer, but "it's not fair" doesn't really matter at this point. Trump continues to gain, and he's babbling incoherently most days and being quite clear that he plans to be a fascist from day one. Whether it's fair or not, there's is a huge double standard. If Harris does anything wrong she loses support. Trump daily explains gleefully how he's going to take away civil rights, begin mass deportations, purge the federal government and fill it with loyalists, and on, and on, and on, and on, and he's been slowly but steadily gaining support for a month.

    Is there a huge, glaring double standard? Yes, absolutely. Does it matter for the blunt reality of the upcoming election? No, not at all.

  • What if it already exists, but you, like many others, don't read it and instead continue to passively consume the very media you're complaining about? Making better journalism doesn't mean multiple generations of people hooked on social-media-feed dopamine hits will read it.

  • What, you don't "vigorously spank" your 15-year-old daughter while calling her "a bad little girl"? Typical snowflake libtard.

    It felt gross even writing that.

  • Why Fascism Doesn’t Stick to Trump

    Jump

  • I'm not talking about proper application here, and I'm not talking about when people label Trump a fascist, which is clearly and obviously warranted as I noted, but I'm not going to sit here and bicker with you about it. It's very obvious that almost anyone and anything will be labeled "fascist" by some people on the left -- and people on the right, frankly. It's overused. It's used by some as a blanket insult for someone or something they disagree with.

    And I'm pretty sure you know that, and are just defending those that you feel use it appropriately, and I'm here for that.

  • Why Fascism Doesn’t Stick to Trump

    Jump

  • It does, in fact, stick to him. It just doesn't matter. I think the hard thing for people on the left to understand is that for roughly half the country, fascism isn't a bad thing. People scream "fascism" like it's the ultimate insult.

    First of all, it's so overused by hyperventilating gaming-chair leftists that it's lost its rhetorical effect, and second of all, accusing someone who wants an authoritarian leader to take power and enact violent vengeance on half the country is, literally, a fascist. They want fascism. You're just calling them by their name.

    And since there appears to be, at best, as many of them as us -- both in the general population and in the political establishment -- it doesn't really do anything. The fact is, fascism is here, it's not going anywhere in the near future, and, to paraphrase the famous quote, one third of this county wants to kill a different third of this country, and the final third is content to watch.

    It's like calling a white supremacist a racist and expecting them to get mad or have their feelings hurt.

  • He was saying there's reason to believe they thought this would be a high profile, non-violent action that would get them attention as well as arrested. I.e., that the arrest and attention were the primary motivations moreso than a political one. It was just a standard, blue USPS post box, not a specific county ballot box (those actually have fire suppression for this reason), so it seems reasonable that this person is just an unstable idiot, not a politically motivated unstable idiot.

    He was previously arrested for just showing up to a work site, assumed homeless, and sitting there, and then trying to take an officers gun "because he 'wanted it' and 'because it’s cool.'" He was then restrained with duct tape. Lol

    Who knows, it's dumb and he was arrested though, which is good.

  • Remember: Donald Trump shouldn’t even be eligible for the presidency after Jan. 6

  • The one where major polling aggregators have shown her chances of winning slowly slipping for about a month. Nate Silver's model now shows Trump's probability of winning about 8% higher than Harris. See the blue line slowly going down, crossing beneath the red line? Blue line go down = bad. Which world do you live in?

  • Trump spin-doctors are specifically referencing that democrats are going to release an "AI-generated" piece of media. I'm assuming that means they're worried something might be released soon. That's it, I'm not putting anything in a "hole," I'm just waiting to see what they're trying to get in front of.

  • Perhaps explains his seemingly defeated attitude recently. His canceling of multiple events. His comment at yesterday's rally...

    Trump: I realized our time is coming to an end. In many ways it’s sad. I’ve been doing this for 9 years.

  • They're the party of "PEDOPHILES SHOULD BE KILLED, DEAD PEDOPHILES CAN'T REOFFEND, I HUNT PEDOPHILES, AND IT'S TOTALLY NORMAL AND NOT PROJECTION THAT I'VE MADE THIS MY ENTIRE IDENTITY." Which is effectively the same thing but is slightly different.

  • The fact that the some of the most immoral spin-doctors that aren't directly related to the Trump campaign -- Posobiec and Kirk for starters -- are clearly trying to get out in front of some sort of bad news that, based on their comments, appears to be a video grants more weight to claims than this random article.

    That being said, whether there is actually a video or they're reacting to the same rumored threat is unknown. Even if it were true, I honestly don't know if it would make enough of a difference for Trump's supporters. And, again if true, the longer they hold the video and allow advance spin and damage control to run unopposed, the less effect it will have. The simple fact is that Trump supporters would then be looking for any reason to simple dismiss/ignore it, and they will undoubtedly be given many reasons by affiliates of Trump's campaign.
