Totally winning the war.

/s

More stuff to think about as Donald and friends insist that they’ve already won the war.

Totally man.

Looking at observable facts and using that as a basis for one’s opinion = Copium.

No, they’re not. In fact, they’ve largely abandoned the gerrymandering push because it worked against them in Texas. (Not out of ethics or altruism, of course, but because it was working against them.)

If anything, they’re bending over and taking it, though some are grift-maxxing before the clock runs out. This president and his cronies have managed to make themselves so historically unpopular that they can’t even project where they will have strength with enough accuracy to leverage all the different state majorities that they possess. They are getting legitimate Socialists elected. They have lost almost every election in 2025 and 2026, and most of those occurred in districts where Donald won by double digits in 2024. Going by the numbers he is even less popular than Jimmy Carter, and that takes effort because Carter is synonymous with ‘shitty president’.

They thought they had a mandate to reboot the Gestapo, when in fact, they were elected on affordability and decided to turbo-charge price gouging and inflation.

2026 is going to be a political bloodbath for the red team. The major downer here is that the blue team isn’t going to do anything meaningful to stop them or create positive change either.

I don’t know enough about this topic to have a useful opinion on it, but I love the thought the the US Military has limits and may not be able to make war indefinitely in the way that Donald intends to do in Iran.

That’s what regulation is.

Making things inconvenient over and over again so worse things don’t happen, or take significantly longer and require more concerted effort to happen. It’s a good thing. We should make it harder for bad actors to do shitty things.

Pretending something is pointless because it may not be 100% effective is absurd.

But, but… hear me out… does Donald feel like a big boy today?

Yeah?

Then worth it.

True.

Also predicted in September 2024 that she would fail and they’d blame the Greens. And I was right.

Because they didn’t take five seconds and look at my profile.

Minutely is the correct word.

When we elect Democrats, the major difference is that the regressive movements progress more strongly at the state level, and the Dems we elected claim to be powerless to stop it. (Which we know is untrue because we’ve seen Donald wield near unilateral executive power.)

At the end of the day there is such little material difference between Democrats and Republicans that a growing segment of the population sees no use in missing a day’s pay to vote.

This is why I think it’s a tad incorrect to say “you get what you vote for”. Because we really don’t.

That is factually untrue in most respects.

Ours is not a representative democracy, if you look past a surface level analysis of American politics and read up on just how strong the correlation between public opinion and our governance actually is in reality.

Of course.

Goddamnit, Donald.

Here’s hoping the bull had a little fun getting this motherfucker back for all of his fallen comrades.

I wasn’t aware of that. Thank you for sharing.

Didn’t expect a Chinese Karen on my timeline this morning.

Right.

Because there totally won’t be another POS trophy hunter lined up to get his rocks off, and it’s pretty clear from the photos of the douchebag’s trophy room that he loved making himself feel like a big boy by shooting living things.

I understand that hunting (when tightly regulated and done ethically) is an essential part of conservation in this day and age as a necessity because of the historical excesses of the Epstein Class and its effects all over the globe, but I’m still going to enjoy reading about the very rare instances when nature wins one back.

Be that as it may, there is a need for such things, since our species has wiped out so many natural predators.

Also, just as an aside, but the Daily Mail needs to stop letting ChatGPT write its articles. This crap is replete with grammar errors.

Team Orca, Team Lion, Team Elephant

I like to think they were hooting: "Welcome to Africa, bitch!’ in Elephantese.

And nothing of value was lost in this exchange. I just hope none of the elephants have sore feet or anything.

Drops in pollution are always temporary. The Epstein Class is insulated from the effects of their industrializing.

Side effect of having, basically, a wholly capitalist planet.
