Oh it definitely has the possibility, and it has in special runoff elections already. Tomorrow we will find out if this ballsy strategy paid off or blew up in their faces.

My prediction is that there will be instances where it does blow up but there will be more on average where it worked.

But maybe tomorrow I sound stupid.

It's not bad faith to publicly shame actual bad faith actors, in fact it's what they need.

Though I do wish I had a magic wand to wave so we could all get back to being semi-reasonable with each other. At least then we can make progress even if we disagree on the way to do it.

I'd love for the Republicans to put up a strong and just candidate because then the democratic party is going to have to try hard again.

I feel you, the democratic party is going through a real identity crisis right now. The Republican party has a strong and united front (not that I agree with them but their base has that advantage). Democrats really need to unite around a few key figures and clear action and soon.

It's not going to be Biden, because I and 90% of people who voted for him only did so because his last name didn't didn't begin with T.

The democratic party is really lackluster at the moment and all they need to do to be better imo is not radicalize your conspiracy riddled uncle.

Amen.

Look to where the MIC is trying to get us involved in the next forever war by comparing what fox and cnn says. When they begin to say the same thing then you know the powers that be have lined up the talking points.

I'm pro aiding Ukraine, but if both networks begin to use rhetoric to encourage Americans to get physically involved then you know bad things are coming.

I think the issue is that for years conservatives pushed hateful rhetoric and the left attempted to debate it in good faith; thus giving many unacceptable positions an air of legitimacy.

The emerging thinking on the left is that the time of going high when they go low is over. It's reckless to entertain politicians who say things like kitty litter in schools or the only chip going on me is a Dorito. There is no need to be tolerant of a person so clearly pushing conspiracy, hate and lies.

Oh it's true, the other day I was at my weekly illuminati meeting and we were discussing the best way to disarm the conservatives so we can usher in our NWO.

It was decided that using force was too risky, so the plan is to use chemicals and marketing to make firearms appear to be homosexual so that the conservatives disarm themselves.

Finally those pious defenders of American liberty will not be able to impede our plans of world domination any longer.
