Remember they made the Democratic Party primaries less democratic after Carter was elected because he was too left wing. And they’ve only been able to nominate neoliberals since.
It's amazing that a naval officer/peanut entrepreneur/devout Christian was "too left wing", especially since he got beat by a Hollywood union boss from California.
Mind you, we just had an anti-elite rebellion led by a thrice-divorced billionaire failson of a New York City real estate magnate.
No less than The Economist uses the BMI ("Big Mac Index") to compare economies.
I was going to say, this is how we get "I am Legend".
It was. But there's a social contract being violated, here.
Also, the guys in the photo above? their rights to own guns were tramped out by that notorious liberal pinko commie Ronald Reagan, because as it turns out, they aren't for the freedom to bear arms, just the freedom for people they like and feel are on their side to bear arms.
If the Panthers started up again, you can bet all the second-amendment types would be begging for gun control in five minutes.
The correct response is "If I'm going to jail because abortion is murder, I may as well kill my rapist"
Cellebrite isn't American.
Ugh. That episode hits hard this week
Having seen Poillievre, I don't think he will do this.
If he just shuts up about "the woke" and just talks about the price of milk, he'd have this in the bag, but he can't shut up about "the woke" because the kind of people who vote in CPC conventions talk about "woke" all the goddamn time, and he knows that if doesn't go on about "the woke" some opportunistic usurper will shiv him.
I sorely wish the CPC party members had voted for Chong or kept O'Toole. I'd be annoyed about austerity spending, but not worried about fascism.
Considering he's in power purely as a result of catering to the whackjob right that thought O'Toole was too sane, I would not put faith in his ability to keep the whackjobs under control.
It's the old "What's the problem with riding a tiger? You can't get off without getting eaten." problem that comes from courting populism.
Ohio just voted for a convicted rapist and felon who ran the worst campaign in modern history.
I don't have any faith in America at all and the US "heartland" specifically. If Trump told them to cut their own genitals off, they'd do it.
Please do.
Especially American liberals. Please move to, eg, Alberta and Ontario specifically and knock the UCP and OCP off their perches.
