      Literally just pro China propaganda, they are doing exactly what they did in Minnesota and California, they are funneling your tax dollars to foreign anti-American bad actors.

      And the data center thing wether you agree or not is still bad for America AI competitiveness making it good for China.

      No such thing as a free lunch literally they can call it whatever they want but it is actually for advancing China Interests.

        Unironically, yes, they can’t govern and are sick of it, they have much more fun and get much higher ratings when they’re in opposition and not in control.

    Fox tells them it’s bad, they’re brainwashed into thinking everything fox tells them is truth. A normal functioning brain would see how those policies would benefit society…

    (Fox needs to have a disclaimer on all their bullshit that says they are legally required to say this is opinion and not news, as well as quoting their lawyer when he said something like “no one actually believes any of this”)

    Conservative voters have been trained to dislike things that are good for them. That’s why many Republican controlled areas of this country are almost indistinguishable from 3rd world countries.

      The really sinister part is seeing that even some “liberal” Americans have the seeds of conservatism planted in their viewpoints. These are the centrists that tend to say one thing but act out a different way. The brainwashing is deep.

        The Conservative Propaganda Machine has been able to control the political messaging in this country for decades, and some of their messages have become standard belief, like the concept that everything the government does is ALWAYS incompetent and wasteful, and that simply isn’t true. MOST of what the government does is very effective.

        The government is an enormous bureaucracy, and if you root around enough, you’ll find issues, but overall, it does a pretty amazing job, when responsible people are managing it.

        We need to challenge these standard beliefs that have become dogma, like Dem are bad for the economy (when ALL studies prove that it’s MAGA), Socialism is terrible (when many of the best things in America are Socialist, and it still offers better outcomes than whatever we are doing now), etc., and start moving in the direction that we have been so carefully directed away from.

        That said, US politics is so bad that this platform is legitimately further left than like 95% of electeds. If this candidate is a Democrat it’s likely that her own party will favor a candidate to her right in primary and if she beats them, possibly still not throw their weight behind her in the general.

        Remember that the leader of the Democratic party is basically a domestic spokesperson for Israel and refuses to acknowledge support the most popular politician in his own party.

          Fortunately* you don’t live in Wisconsin.

          Born and raised there; a DSA governor is a fucking fantastic step in the right direction. I’ll mention her to my family but…

          Wisconsin is the south of the north. I regularly drove past a Confederate flag. Milwaukee is the most segregated city in the US (or was, havent checked recently) and the GOP leans into that with a lot of ugly rhetoric.

          This article is getting a little long in the tooth but is a quality deep dive into some of the very thinly veiled (or outright) systemic racism in Wisconsin.

          Also; rural Grindr made me sad for queer men raised in that environment, including myself.

            I just wanted to know that your last statement brought me a bit of comfort today, thank you. I’ve been feeling a bit isolated here, since, well, ever, but was never able to make it out yet :/ I’m not that rural, but anywhere outside of Milwaukee or Madison is pretty bleak.
