I love the sentiment, but I always shy away from this particular quote, simply because it is unsubstantiated:

This is a great point. I think overt polarization is a major issue, because it means other bad actors get really far with something as simple as "trump bad".

Sticking with my original statement of "OK":

You were an OK governor. You'll never be president. Real change will never come from a career politician.

I'm literally not suggesting that anyone vote for him.

Yeah. My bar for "OK" is pretty low.

Actively standing against Trump probably gets him more credit than it should, but given the landscape, I'm sticking with it.

Perfection cannot be the enemy of progress.

Papers, Please

It's a fantastic single-player game if you need a distraction while the world is destroyed around you and your friends and family are murdered.

I agree. It may have a few years ago. The level of bullshittery for a nottheonion has inflated wildly.

Oh ffs. I'm so tired of the "I'm just asking questions" bullshit.

Don't have Nazis on your podcast.

You were an OK governor. You'll never be president. Real change will never come from a career politician.

This is part of the strategy.

Keep cranking things slowly up. Keep increasing the heat. Frog in a frying pan.

Note how a literal murder is useful as a fear tactic.

Before Charlie Kirk, there was Horst Wessel.

This administration thrives on the quick dismissal. Once it works, they take real action. It is extremely important that this does not leave public consciousness.

Just like Epstein and a bunch of other shit they have stacked up.

I like to think the number nationwide is sizeable but media control and especially social media algorithms make it hard to see. But you could be right and there are only dozens of us.

At this point he should be impeached again just for wasting everyone's time

(Impeachment is useless, I know. It's a joke)
