Also guys holy shit, the redditors which @Cyberduck linked to yesterday have been all night over Jon Stewart having dared to go against orthodoxy and ask if the Emperor is naked!!!

He tries to Two sides it as usually but it's very short but the sneed is good. Some are at the acceptance stage already.

quote from the show

Authoritarianism and Donald Trump aren't the only threats our democracy faces; an arthritic status quo—unable or unwilling to respond in any way to the concerns of voters who just received new and urgent information about their candidate—also erodes confidence and faith in the system of government.

Do you have any idea how thirsty Americans are for any hint of inspiration or leadership and a release from this choice of a megalomaniac and a suffocating gerontocracy? It is crushing our fricking spirits.

Goddam this is cathartic. Felt like I needed that ever since the goodest interview. Obligatory Jon should run for president comment, because he said — funnier and more articulate — every argument I've had on /r/politics for the past week.

Stewart is right

The only part that I kinda disagree on is (sort of) the pass he gives the media for not calling out Trump. Just because we're used to Trump being a criminal, an election denier, and a wannabe dictator, doesn't mean that we shouldn't expect that to be the biggest story.

It frustrates me to no end that we're even treating Trump like a legitimate choice. We all saw him and heard him; we all know he wanted to do a coup.

He hit the nail on the head and is a thousand percent right about the "get on board or shut the frick up ain't exactly pro democracy"

Doesn't matter anymore Biden look like a desperate man trying to keep a job he is to old to do. We had concerns about his age before the primaries but he basically ran unopposed and did not have to campaign at all. In 2020 we had Covid and Biden did not do much campaigning, but we saw videos of him riding a bike and exercising, which gave the sense he was in good shape. Being President is a hard job and can tire even a young man out. Unfortunately, both parties settle on the candidate way before the primaries even begin, thus giving us the choice between two bad choices. If it is Biden on the ticket i will vote for him, because Harris is VP, but anything is better than Trump. My advice is to vote against every Republican running, because there is no good Republican running anymore just Fascist.

I just want to know when they are going to talk about the r*pe case. Why is it not on the news?

MUH WHAT ABOUTISM

gotta get back to work. Enjoy this post
