Brianna Wu was on the show before and warned the Dems. They obviously didn't listen.
It's funny interesting how more and more people on the left are realizing all this idpol stuff is damaging.

If you don't recognize him from pictures, first of all, shame on you, second of all, he's the whitest, least flaming and least law breaking rightoid, George Santos.
And since Trump is openly hiring r-slurs only, what is your dream job in Trump's commune cabinet?

I find Gen Z are the closest to boomers in terms of their inability to detect misinformation and inability to critically think. They are also very boomerish in their lack of empathy, and the got mine frick you attitude even though almost none of them actually have anything precisely because of the right wing policies that they grew up with.
Unlike wise and decent human beans redditors
Yeah... I interact with some Gen z at work thinking that I'd be the out of touchh, conservative leaning GenX dude..
Boy was I wrong, GenZ are edgelords saying borderline offensive racist shit to get the lulz. It's like 4chan IRL.
Based zoomies
Millennials are the only generation that seems to be adjusted at all. I'm not going to go as far as saying "well adjusted" but we've grown with the tech.
We know the difference between 4chan level trolling, and actual discussions. We know how to double and triple check sources on the internet. We know how to put the screens down and interact with the world.
Boomers have proven that they don't know shit from frick on the internet. Gen X is slowly sliding into the same pitfalls of the Boomers, only with insufferable sarcasm.
I actually struggle with wanting kids, because I know the environment they'll be born into is straight messed up.
So well adjusted that you spend your entire time whining on reddit
I'm a millennial and I thought my gen z workmate was kind of fun, but politics of any sort hadn't come up. Then he said he watches Ben Shapiro and that the Barbie movie was woke garbage. I just sighed internally. I wouldn't call him that edgy, but he's very switched on and it just disappoints me how easy it seems for males of that generation to fall down right wing rabbit holes - even the smarter ones. Now he's telling me about various Jordan Peterson mantras I've heard a hundred times and can dismiss easily. Next week he'll probably be saying Ukraine started the war against Russia.
I don't know where to start explaining why Shapiro and co are toxic. Well I do… but it's a big job and I'm so tired. We're Australian and not American btw.
Shapiro isn't even that edgy, there are much worse r-slurs the kid could idolize
The oldest people of Gen Alpha will start voting in 4 years too, and with them being right behind the youngest members of Gen Z, theyll probably follow Gen Z's lead and lean Republican too
Turns out, after everyone kept blaming them for everything well into their thirties, it's the millennials that actually get shit done in this country.

I already know Thanksgiving is gonna suck because it's an election year and there's awkward family drama.
My mom is a left-leaning redditor so if she starts talking political, I want to deflect and pick an easier target with a shorter discussion path. Pretty much dismissing everything with "yeah hopefully now Reddit can go back to normal"
While people can argue for weeks about whether or not reddit is astroturfed, I'm focusing on simpsonsshitposting. It was a moderate-sized sub where people combine elements of two old Simpsons scenes for comedic purposes.
Your average "top" post would get a couple thousand upvotes. Now with election season, any low effort "Bort sampson says Trump Bad" gets 40,000 upvotes in 3 hours.
The subreddit growth is sus. Sure, a popular post may hit the front page and you'll get an influx of subscribers. But this is a bit too much.
11-3, two days before the election, over 1700 new subscribers and posts are reaching numbers never before seen.
11-4? Twenty two.
Which brings me to my question -- what event happened on July 10th that either had a record number of organic subscribers, or record number of bots go online? Biden dropped out less than two weeks later but it was *after* the subscriber jump.

Regardless of who you supported most people would agree that Kamala did well in the debate. Can you remember a single thing she said?
They're eating the dogs. The people that came in. They're eating the cats. They're eating the pets of the people that live there.
Everyone remembers this line. It's like a five year old's spergout. It's like a doctor Seuss rhyme for r-slurs. But that's why its so good. You just can't fake this level of r-slurredness, and because you can't fake it, it's come off as genuine. Haitians bad. Whether you agree or not, you know what Trump is getting at and what he is trying to say.
Can you say the same about Kamala? Kamala is a midwit, but even a midwit knows how to hide her intentions. When she tells you that she is now for the border wall, do you believe her? A midwit is capable of saying that to your face because she thinks it'll court the centrist vote. It's simple 2D chess.
When Trump lies, he lies bigly. There aren't any subtilties whatsoever, the lies are often so dumb that you just have to sit back in awe of how dumb it is. So even though he lies it doesn't come off as capable of manipulation. The media in turn spergs out about all the dumb shit Trump says. It's good for the ratings, but also they are midwits themselves. But to the average American they don't feel the threat because they just tune out all the dumb nonsensical shit Trump says. So then people think that the media is being biased, which they are. Thats why its manipulative. It's 4D chess because its 1D chess.

Replacing income tax with tarries will create hyperinflation. Trying to get rid of the Federal Reserve is dumb, the gold standard is dead.
School prayer is stupid.
Handing environmental policy to oil companies just screams that rivers might catch on fire.
The Chinese must be celebrating.
Lolbertarian MAGA morons will implode the USA. At least I can watch the shitshow from Canada.

Evidence Suggesting Voter Fraud in Wisconsin Senate Race
— Shylock Holmes (@shylockh) November 11, 2024
In Milwaukee, a huge and improbable Dem vote dump flipped the race
In Dane and Winnebago, updates implausibly all improved Dem vote share relative to prior votes. Updates got more extreme after GOP pulled ahead.
