https://twitter.com/maggienyt/status/1396932348814450690?s=21 I’m pretty sure all the RWM was touting it as a platform. Anyway, everyone called his blog dumb and it was doing atrocious numbers so if course this wasn’t the real thing, no we can expect that in about two weeks, I’m sure.

Kalit posted:A gun killing 2 people and injuring 8 others vs a knife that injures or kills up to two people since it appeared targeted (from the previously linked article): Friend this conversation was about people banging on about crime crisis 2021 yes someone being injured not killed is preferable this is irrelevant to reactionaries and their enablers as the goal post is inevitably moved. Hence Britain becoming knife crime island and since the conversation was centered on afore mentioned enablers I was assuming the argument was predicated on what would stop that narrative.

The main difference though is that there lacked a real echo chamber of the kind to spread those kinds of beliefs, and concerns over the illegitimacy over the 2016 election divided between two tracks: Systemic concerns like the Electoral College, and specific accountability for Russian interference to what extent Trump and his campaign knew about and benefited from Russian interference. Things that have concrete grounds and weren't expected to result in overturning the election (but were hoped would make Trump politically toxic and otherwise lead to future reforms like HR1). Democrats don't latch onto (political) conspiracy theories the same way the right does because the right being proto-fascists feed on the existence of an "other" that through a careful shifting of the rhetorical focus is overwhelmingly strong and out to get them and pathetically weak to stand victoriously atop over. The closest thing among the left are those who believe the DNC rigged the primaries as that is allowed to live in the online echo chamber of rose twitter and only gains traction as a result of right wing misinformation campaigns and the russians giving more light to those conspiracy theories to try to drive down Dem turnout.

Nessus posted:I am also curious what is the percentage of the electorate we are looking at here? Is this people who are already asked if they would identify themselves as Republicans? My understanding is that that percentage of the electorate is somewhere between 25 to 35% nationally (obviously it varies on region), and yet I have seen a lot of people go from "53% of 35%" (to construct it generously) to "53% of the entire electorate," between less than clear framing and the apparent deep conditioning that only Republican voters are actual Americans. That Venn diagram would be a single circle.

New Yorkers constantly defining arbitrary criteria about what makes someone a 'real New Yorker,' as though that's even a title of value is even more tiring than hearing about Yang's candidacy in the first place. Who the gently caress has a favorite subway stop in the first place? There are plenty of policy reasons to dunk on Yang without making up completely arbitrary ones.
