So wait if the DNC/DCCC are functionally useless and we should all be screaming at our phone contacts to vote for a party that has no message, then why should we support that party or those groups financially if their entire purpose is null anyway?

Hint: you should not be encouraging anyone to vote for democrats, if you have political energy to spare you should be organizing with the popular protest movements of the day, preferably with socialists. Electoral politics is not the horse, it is the cart. It's like what Howard Zinn said, it's not who is sitting in the White House, it's who is sitting in that counts.

All the good things that have ever happened in this nation politically have never been because the people voted for the right piece of poo poo democrat, it's always been won through struggle, and anyone who ever tells you otherwise is trying to sell you neoliberal fantasy

Their purpose is not null: having a party that stands for Nothing is the ultimate manifestation of Radical Centrism. Long live the new flesh.

PLEASE ASK ABOUT MY 80,000 WORD WALLACE AND GROMIT SLASH FICTION. PLEASE.

I can't get over that loving guy's name. Every time I hear it it's like "and now, here's Coyote Stormfront with today's top stories!" I mean America needs to be destroyed for many reasons, but for me chief among them is the fact there's old white dudes tooling around with names that sound like what pornstar names would be if the nazis had won the war.

I dunno, Wolf IS dumb as a sack of wet dirt, but he's the more...normal kinda dumb. Like he's just constantly happily surprised to be in the middle of all these fancy conversations and poo poo. Joy's brand of stupid is mean and spiteful, like saying that Yugoslavia was 'soviet' while trying to imply loving someone from there was a sign of being a deep cover KGB agent. That's just a mean, stupid, way to view the world and that and her leftist bashing makes me think she's one of those dumb people that can only be happy making others feel just as dumb as her. Wolf would 100% be just as happily surprised finding out Trump is a KGB agent as he'd be finding out unicorns are real, there's a reason :wow: exists and all.

Future movie review right there. This book is pretty much Matt Christman's disconnected male gamer theory in celluloid, based on a book where said lifestyle has a massive payoff and wins the day.

It's only tangentially about that, it's more about just mindless pop culture reference with no thought behind it beyond performative nerd knowledge

Yeah, I'd say it's accidentally about that. Totally unintentional and not at all an examination of it.
