Objective reality is dead and we best get used to it. And to be honest, it never really was much of a thing to begin with, we just didn't realize how many otherwise normal seeming people believed utterly insane bullshit until facebook came along. It felt nice thinking "if we could only get these people the facts they would surely change their minds", but logic and reason fail when you're not living in the same universe.

Democrats had a historic turnout for midterms.the senate will not flip red on a dem presidential cycle, and with these thin margins, we may even get a good majority in both the house and senate this time. We need 9 seats in the senate for the supermajority.

2024 is going to be a difficult map to gain any seats in the Senate, even with a presidential election cycle. Democrats are going to have to focus on defense protecting their majority above s else. Best case scenario for the 2024 Senate race is dumping Sinema and hopefully getting a progressive in there. Won’t change the number of seats but at least it’ll be one more progressive voice in there.

I wish I had your optimism but that's not happening. The Democrats will maybe, maybe flip the seat in Texas in addition to defending all the others. A lot of things would need to happen for that to be a possibility though, Cruz would have to become even more unpopular than he already is and the Democrats need to run a good candidate. This means telling the perennial loser Beto O'Rourke to fuck off and stay out of it publicly. I would pick Julian Castro so as to make inroads with the Latino communities there. But given the stupidity of the people in Texas, it's not impossible, but also not likely.
I think the most realisitic scenario is that Republicans win the senate 51-49 with people like Tester barely holding on and Gallego picking up Sinema's seat. Sherrod Brown is likely gone despite his popularity because of how red Ohio is and West Virginia will flip. Best case scenario is 50-50 IMO. Only West Virginia is lost in that scenario.
Regardless, the Democrats had better hope they can send Susan Collins and Thom Thillis packing in 26' and then get Mary Peltola to run for the seat in Alaska at some point.

Denny Hastert got arrested. Trump isn't going to avoid indictment. Whether he's convicted is another question. MTG may have committed a crime but being vocally supportive of an insurrection is not a criminal offense and that's all I know she did for sure.

Being vocally supportive of insurrection is a crime in certain circumstances, when it “intends to incite or produce imminent lawless action, and the speaker's words or conduct must be likely to produce such action. These requirements are known as the Brandenburg test. (Brandenburg v. Ohio, 395 U.S. 444 (1969).”
Also, while not criminal in nature, vocally supporting an insurrection does bar a person from any office of public trust, for life under the 14A, Section 3. The ‘Aid and Comfort’ rule is a very low bar to run afoul of. Even just unsuccessfully attempting to do so has disqualified a person.

The GOP doesn't care how ridiculous, insane, and hypocritical they look. Insanity is the point. They want people to be angry enough that they stop paying attention to the circus. Less political engagement from people means less oversight from politicians.
They're already insulated by a nigh-impenetrable media bubble of propaganda and confirmation bias that prevents their fascist and fascist-adjacent followers from holding them accountable. Now they want to drive down "moderate" voter turnout to help their gerrymandered districts keep them in power. All the drama is grease for the gears, and we're heading full speed toward a permanent authoritarian takeover of the government.

Voter outreach, and giving people reason to believe they can effect a change is going to be crucial. Sure, there are a lot of factors working against us, but defeatism is jut going to turn into complacency.
There are a lot of things people can do: Engaging with their social networks about the importance of these issues and the dangerous trends. Voting. Championing decency, respect, and dignity. But also shaming the violent troglodytes and provocateurs trying to sow discord.

This is the state of the GOP and yet dems continue to barely hold power or lose outright. We act like anyone with a brain should see this problem and yet 40% clearly don't and another 20% are swing voters.
I don't think 60% of america is that dumb. I think the dem party leadership is absolute garbage at marketing and presenting a clear and reasoned argument. The GOP has vilified the idea of liberalism for so long, people will vote for anything over dems in many states without consideration for facts or policy. Dem leadership needs to step up or get out of the damn way.

The dual-party political system in America is only put in place to divide the people. Look for yourself, think for yourself; most issues don’t need to be classified as either republican nor democratic, they just don’t need to have a label. The reason racism is still perpetuated is as a means of division of the people.
The reason we have narration in certain media as to what religion we should hate this week, is to keep the people divided.
The more and more we feed into these systems, the more wins the capitalists gain, and these politicians are just capitalists and puppets of capitalists.
The problem is, we are way too stupid as a nation to see past these glaringly obvious systems used to keep us in control and to even in some extreme cases incite violence on one another.
Stop being sheep, stop listening to your shitty idiot parents and friends and regurgitating bullshit.
Take a simple sociology class, and at least be tuned into what systems exist within our nation as a means of divide.
Stop being a fucking ignoramus and inciting anger and violence towards people who you don’t agree with.
Start being neutral to people’s beliefs, and try to persuade them under the guise of what is right or wrong, not what is more conservative or liberal.
Fuck dude, we are so stupid.

not to be conceited as if this is my own original thought, but you’re right. people do need to have this point of view, as a majority, for the problems we have with this nation to come to a stop.
i would strongly suggest a neutral open conversation with any friends/family/intellectuals, who would be willing to sit down and appreciate different perspectives.
over time, if enough neutral and non-judgmental, civil conversations occur, people will change their views.
Over time, if enough people change their views and wake up to the systems at play keeping us at lower levels of consciousness and action, then we will have gained a major victory for our posterity.
appreciate the positive feedback, glad to know some people are able to see past the noise. we just need more on this side of perspective.

A lot of things would need to happen for that to be a possibility though, Cruz would have to become even more unpopular than he already is and the Democrats need to run a good candidate. This means telling the perennial loser Beto O'Rourke to fuck off and stay out of it publicly. I would pick Julian Castro so as to make inroads with the Latino communities there. But given the stupidity of the people in Texas, it's not impossible, but also not likely. \nI think the most realisitic scenario is that Republicans win the senate 51-49 with people like Tester barely holding on and Gallego picking up Sinema's seat. Sherrod Brown is likely gone despite his popularity because of how red Ohio is and West Virginia will flip. Best case scenario is 50-50 IMO. Only West Virginia is lost in that scenario.\nRegardless, the Democrats had better hope they can send Susan Collins and Thom Thillis packing in 26' and then get Mary Peltola to run for the seat in Alaska at some point.",

These requirements are known as the Brandenburg test. (Brandenburg v.

Her critics, however, expressed the opposite sentiment, summed up with one comment: “We’re in hell.”
I think this is the wrong reaction, conservatives will only delight in this statement. The better approach would be to remain critically neutral and continue to reproach their shameless behavior.

Conservatives are a lost cause. I mean that. Once someone crosses into the territory of possibly committing treason you have to understand that they are not to be pandered to or worried about in terms of how you conduct yourself. There is no unifying the united states anymore. Many had the same thoughts before the the civil war, but there was no way to get what was morally necessary without war.

Conservatives are a lost cause. I mean that.
Yup. They are in burn it all down mode. Their sole purpose is to prevent any and all progress done by Democrats, The Enemy. They do not want compromise. They do not want to improve the daily lives of people living in America. They are not there to govern. We are past a difference of political opinion. The Republicans have none.
“The solution is that people don’t have to come to work to try to operate trains after they’ve had heart attacks and broken legs. But right now, where we are is caught between shutting down the economy and getting enough Republicans to join us in making sure that people have access to sick leave.”

The Democrats should do everything they can to get Marge up there, give her as much exposure as she's willing to take but refrain from critiquing her.
Just let her fail organically, when the Democrats attack her her base protects her, if the Democrats just ignore her all she'll have to show is all failure and no culture war

She's not failing because they want her to outrage the Democrats, and she does... So goal accomplished.

The "Jewish space laser" jokes are all really funny until you pull back and look at the context. She was literally blaming evil Jews for the 2018 California wildfires that killed over 100 people.
This is who Republicans are. They would rather scapegoat a minority and blame them for mass death, than face up to the fact that climate change is real.
As climate disasters like the California wildfires start to become more common, it will also be more and more common to start scapegoating poor people and minorities and easy targets like Jews instead of addressing the real issue. This is going to get vicious and it's going to get dangerous. "Space lasers cause wildfires" is the first step down an incredibly ugly road.

This means telling the perennial loser Beto O'Rourke to fuck off and stay out of it publicly. I would pick Julian Castro so as to make inroads with the Latino communities there. But given the stupidity of the people in Texas, it's not impossible, but also not likely. \nI think the most realisitic scenario is that Republicans win the senate 51-49 with people like Tester barely holding on and Gallego picking up Sinema's seat. Sherrod Brown is likely gone despite his popularity because of how red Ohio is and West Virginia will flip. Best case scenario is 50-50 IMO. Only West Virginia is lost in that scenario.\nRegardless, the Democrats had better hope they can send Susan Collins and Thom Thillis packing in 26' and then get Mary Peltola to run for the seat in Alaska at some point.",

I think the dem party leadership is absolute garbage at marketing and presenting a clear and reasoned argument. The GOP has vilified the idea of liberalism for so long, people will vote for anything over dems in many states without consideration for facts or policy. Dem leadership needs to step up or get out of the damn way.",
">\n\nNo , I work with people in retail. They are that dumb",
">\n\nThe dual-party political system in America is only put in place to divide the people. Look for yourself, think for yourself; most issues don’t need to be classified as either republican nor democratic, they just don’t need to have a label. The reason racism is still perpetuated is as a means of division of the people.\nThe reason we have narration in certain media as to what religion we should hate this week, is to keep the people divided.\nThe more and more we feed into these systems, the more wins the capitalists gain, and these politicians are just capitalists and puppets of capitalists.\nThe problem is, we are way too stupid as a nation to see past these glaringly obvious systems used to keep us in control and to even in some extreme cases incite violence on one another.\nStop being sheep, stop listening to your shitty idiot parents and friends and regurgitating bullshit.\nTake a simple sociology class, and at least be tuned into what systems exist within our nation as a means of divide.\nStop being a fucking ignoramus and inciting anger and violence towards people who you don’t agree with.\nStart being neutral to people’s beliefs, and try to persuade them under the guise of what is right or wrong, not what is more conservative or liberal.\nFuck dude, we are so stupid.",
">\n\nFucking nailed it. I wish more people had your perspective. Preach!",
">\n\nnot to be conceited as if this is my own original thought, but you’re right. people do need to have this point of view, as a majority, for the problems we have with this nation to come to a stop.\ni would strongly suggest a neutral open conversation with any friends/family/intellectuals, who would be willing to sit down and appreciate different perspectives.\nover time, if enough neutral and non-judgmental, civil conversations occur, people will change their views.\nOver time, if enough people change their views and wake up to the systems at play keeping us at lower levels of consciousness and action, then we will have gained a major victory for our posterity.\nappreciate the positive feedback, glad to know some people are able to see past the noise. we just need more on this side of perspective.",
">\n\nThis week on ow my balls !",
">\n\nShe perjured herself multiple times in her testimony regarding January 6th.\nBy letting her go without even a slap on the wrist, this is the result. We’re in fucking trouble for not holding these insurrectionists accountable.",
">\n\nShe’s there specifically to get a rise out of people",
">\n\nI think it’s just to slap AOC in the face after her criticism of their “consistency” and hypocrisy",
">\n\nThis disgusting moron can’t even string two misinformation sentences together.",
">\n\nHa, so true!",
">\n\nThis is what happens when a wet blanket like McCarthy gives away the store to get the gavel.",
">\n\nSo anyway we put Timothy McVeigh in charge of this day care",
">\n\nWhat the fuck have we become? Letting a monkey run a crucial part of our government.",
">\n\nI say fantastic\nLet the country see what fucking psychos these people are, I say the more publicity this absolute clownshow gets the better.",
">\n\nThey tried a coupe, it was covered live, it failed, and most of the politicians that supported it got reelected and the President who instigated it is the current GOP front runner for President.\nThe country knows exactly who these people are and 45% of them love it and demand more of it.",
">\n\n\nThey tried a coupe\n\nAt least it wasn't a sedan....",
">\n\nCoupe de state",
">\n\nCrazy baboon!",
">\n\nLord! It’s the Gazpacho police!",
">\n\nToday it's horrifying; tomorrow we're used to it as we focus on that day's atrocities.\nThe constant slide never ends until it does, for all of us or for all of them.",
">\n\nIs this the “deal” she made? She gets to bang the gavel like a kid at Career Day while McCarthy runs out to pinch a loaf?",
">\n\nThis is what happens when no punishment is ever given. Sure name me a couple staffers that got convicted, who the fuck cares? The ones that matter never have and never will be held accountable for even crimes like attempting a coup. \"Time to heal and not be so political\".",
">\n\nGreat optics, GOP. Keep up the good work. /s",
">\n\n\nHer critics, however, expressed the opposite sentiment, summed up with one comment: “We’re in hell.” \n\nI think this is the wrong reaction, conservatives will only delight in this statement. The better approach would be to remain critically neutral and continue to reproach their shameless behavior.",
">\n\nConservatives are a lost cause. I mean that. Once someone crosses into the territory of possibly committing treason you have to understand that they are not to be pandered to or worried about in terms of how you conduct yourself. There is no unifying the united states anymore. Many had the same thoughts before the the civil war, but there was no way to get what was morally necessary without war.",
">\n\n\nConservatives are a lost cause. I mean that. \n\nYup. They are in burn it all down mode. Their sole purpose is to prevent any and all progress done by Democrats, The Enemy. They do not want compromise. They do not want to improve the daily lives of people living in America. They are not there to govern. We are past a difference of political opinion. The Republicans have none.\n\n“The solution is that people don’t have to come to work to try to operate trains after they’ve had heart attacks and broken legs. But right now, where we are is caught between shutting down the economy and getting enough Republicans to join us in making sure that people have access to sick leave.”",
">\n\nShe just seems like the kind of person that would enjoy being the commandant of a concentration camp.",
">\n\nThe Democrats should do everything they can to get Marge up there, give her as much exposure as she's willing to take but refrain from critiquing her. \nJust let her fail organically, when the Democrats attack her her base protects her, if the Democrats just ignore her all she'll have to show is all failure and no culture war",
">\n\nShes not failing with their base, shes their hero",
">\n\nShe's not failing because they want her to outrage the Democrats, and she does... So goal accomplished.\nIf the Democrats just ignored her and quietly pushed her into high visibility failures of her own making the chrome would start to peel pretty quickly",
">\n\nTHANKS Garland! You spineless fuck.",
">\n\nWelp. America's jumped the shark.",
">\n\nWas this part of Kevin’s deal to win speaker?",
">\n\nThe lunatics running the asylum",
">\n\nLike, for real this is honestly terrifying.",
">\n\nThe \"Jewish space laser\" jokes are all really funny until you pull back and look at the context. She was literally blaming evil Jews for the 2018 California wildfires that killed over 100 people.\nThis is who Republicans are. They would rather scapegoat a minority and blame them for mass death, than face up to the fact that climate change is real.\nAs climate disasters like the California wildfires start to become more common, it will also be more and more common to start scapegoating poor people and minorities and easy targets like Jews instead of addressing the real issue. This is going to get vicious and it's going to get dangerous. \"Space lasers cause wildfires\" is the first step down an incredibly ugly road.",
">\n\nCan you imagine her sole priority? Funneling all resources into investigating Jewish space lasers?",
">\n\nI’d drag her down from that podium by her “hair”",
">\n\nIs she wearing a horcrux? She’s wearing a horcrux isn’t she…..",
">\n\nWe most certainly are.",
">\n\nConvince me she's not fucking McConnell",
">\n\nAfter seeing this and so many other instances like it, I no longer feel bad for applying for jobs I am woefully under qualified for.",
">\n\nSo call we finally fucking acknowledge that the Republican party is the party of racists now?",
">\n\nshe has cold dead narcissist eyes",
">\n\nWe’ll finally address those pesky Jewish space lasers!"
