  • I do believe, after seeing how the DNC is learning (or more accurately, absolutely refusing to learn) from this absolute debacle, that the Democratic Party is straight up finished.

    If elections are allowed in 2026, the DNC may subject all of us to one last feeble attempt to move towards the center in the midterms, and if they win it’ll be a dead cat bounce (just because the GOP demonstrably SUCKS at governing, and Democratic candidates can just run on “we’re not those fucking idiots”). They’re obviously completely co-opted by corporations and rich people at this point, and that’s not getting rolled back, despite the fact that that fact is a huge part of why they snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. And the article is more or less expressing that last sentence.



  • Ukraine’s going to follow through on making a crash nuclear weapons program, and I do believe that they can pull it off.

    We’re unfortunately going to do an about-face on supporting them when Trump gets in, and they’re going to have to fend for themselves. Scholz (that cowardly invertebrate) has already reached out to Putin instead of figuring out what to do with France and Poland and the UK in terms of supporting Ukraine.

    Ukraine’s only real option for posing a threat credible enough to Russia that they back the fuck off is nukes.
