This is the one appointment I’m hopeful for because if he can mismanage the armed forces into being even more incompetent than usual, I see that as a win.

This is the sensible compromise between killing all cats and killing no cats.
First the Huckabees, then this woman.
While Harris was going broke paying movie stars and pop singers, Trump got more campaign leverage out of three hours on Joe Rogan and thirty minutes at McDonald’s.
Once again the Democrats run their campaign like it’s thirty years ago.

Don’t count on someone learning something if their paycheck requires them not to.
Yeah no she ran on crypto for black men as a major policy platform for minority empowerment. She was explicitly campaigning towards the top 20% of minorities, income-wise.
How dare those ideological leftists put the genocide of Palestinians over the emancipatory policy of protecting black men’s crypto investments?
The dust bowl was just a hoax invented by Big Arbor
First off, please refrain from using the phrase “Let that sink in” in the future. It’s cliched with heavy duty vibes.
Second, while I do think there’s a problem of willful ignorance affecting our political economy, I don’t think youth education and illiteracy are the fundamental issues. Younger generations are, relatively speaking, more likely to have college degrees or college experience. And the only youth who’ve swung right are young white men (plus youth in general are less likely to vote so it’s a murky demo to analyze). The anti-intellectual demonizing of higher education is slop for the boomers.
Likewise, illiterate people aren’t the right wing base; they’re largely non-voters and as illiteracy goes hand in hand with poverty, it’s more likely they see neither party as in their interests than siding with the right.
I think the bigger issue is that our educational system produces too many useful idiots. They can pass the standardized tests but lack the training in critical thinking to see anything past the surface level. Perfect example is the majority of Americans not understanding how marginal tax brackets work. Or just look at all the responses to the results of the election that reveal a completely inability to parse the data.
That’s the funny thing about proper leftist economy theory, it’s not especially esoteric. Most of it is common sense, you just need to think about how things work deeper that the immediate, morality play version of the analysis.
The conservative donor class is cutting out the middle man
