I’m baffled at this site really thinking I/P is some slam dunk loss for Biden among young people. I am not really young anymore, but

I often worry that I'm not doing enough at this moment in history. That I should be donating entire paychecks or throwing my body on the gears or whatever else. I fear that one day when I think back on these times, I will find my actions wanting.

And then I read this poo poo and realize that I am at least handily clearing the lowest of moral bars.

But the praise was not unanimous, with plenty of pro-Palestinian groups unwilling to give the president credit while the war’s horrific toll on Palestinian civilians grows and U.S. weapons and aid continue to flow.

Those dissenting voices might show the growing pains of a still-young and inchoate movement reluctant to acknowledge incremental progress in the face of ongoing bloodshed in Gaza. Or it could show how an uncompromising vanguard can complement the work of a pragmatic advocacy campaign.

Most important election of all time everyone has to vote for Joe this is the most important thing ever!!!

gently caress them kids, gently caress anyone who has any kind of criticism of the Biden administration, gently caress Muslims, gently caress leftists we don't need your votes lol.

If Biden does lose (and I still don't think it's a lock that he will, although it's looking bad for him) I bet it's going to come down to handfuls of various demographics sitting it out or voting third party.

They might not be large groups individually, but considering demographics considered rock-solid for democrats slightly moving toward Trump, as well as the handful of states that decide the election, it's going to be hard for Biden to overcome a cumulative loss of votes from those demographics in those states.

Pointing out that only a slim margin of voters (including younger voters) cares v. much about I/P ignores that people also vote cumulatively on issues. Someone who doesn't want to vote for Genocide Joe might also be voting against him for additional reasons in addition to I/P, iow.

I just don't see how someone like Biden can piss off most Arab-American voters in Michigan, or dismiss 18-34 year olds as "not that important", and expect to win. All that to say: if you're on the knife's edge and you've decided that key demographics like Arab-Americans and young people don't matter, then you're a terrible politician.

If the Democrats were an actual political party spearheading an actual popular coalition, they could afford to ignore groups who make up relatively marginal sections of the electorate. Of course, they're not a real political party. (And if they were, the youth vote probably wouldn't be so marginal)

But what has liberalism really done to replace religion? At least with secular materialism, there is the great Civic Project that all of humanity should dedicate itself to, but liberalism is so devoted to discourse that its only real project is the veneer of total diversity. Cool, everyone gets to participate in the debate sphere. Now what? What have we actually solved?

the absolute worst thing that could happen is Biden winning anyways, that there would be zero consequences for such horrible foreign policy, like it’s gonna get way worse with a mandate of heaven election win.

That's right. I'd hate to see the smugness radiate off of liberals if they thought they could be complicit in genocide and be rewarded for it at the polls. Far worse than Project 2025 or whatever else Trump would do.

The claim that everything you believe is actually the product of this ideology, that is one and the same with your innate human goodness, would have been a bit too kooky for Heinrich Himmler.
Right-wingers do this all the time. Just conflate your ideology with basic aspects of human nature (or virtues), ergo anyone who disagrees with you is stupid and insane.

Like, I once had an interaction with some 90-year-old professor who claimed that you can't disagree with capitalism because even insects and plants engage in capitalism. It became clear that he just conflated capitalism with what I suppose Marx would have called Gattungswesen.

your entire embedding. that's it. just the entire context. thus, if you claim anything escapes liberalism, that's wrong because everything is part of liberalism.


you see we're all like fish in the water

...

and the water is liberalism!







in fact, all our media is liberalism too...just try to imagine explaining the story of Mulan or Pocahontas to someone from a non-liberal context, they couldn't understand it! It would be like trying to explain gay porn to the Ancient Greeks!







but the real goal is basically to fill the gaping hole in liberals' souls with Liberalism as a religion.
