So let me get this straight - your Mayday PAC, which started May 1st and decided to raise money from leftists in the month of May, has nothing to do with May Day and is instead all about a ship in distress? If that's the case, wouldn't this fundraising effort have been better suited to April for the Titanic?

Yes, appeal to the notoriously centrist community in DnD

Can we talk more about how hilariously dumb this proposal is? Because everything about it is dumb. You have to believe that public financing prevents corruption, that the superPAC run by one of the elites will actually work toward that goal, that neoliberal messages are more palatable when they appeal to leftist imagery, etc.

I suppose the only saving grace for Mr. Boyko is that he read enough about Goons to know which forum to post in.

lmao he took the phone list and left the party

Since I’ve started working with the Democratic Party, I see so many people working hard to raise money, from the top down. Raising money is important to winning, I get that. But honestly, it is better in the long term to lose individual races if it means winning the war on systemic corruption.

tell me, how many wars do you win when you let every one of your troops die

I was scrolling through his extensive reddit post history, and I'm positive I saw him mention Sweden and Denmark as potential relocation targets as well. He's pretty much hit every cliche for disaffected white males dreaming of moving to another country where they "get it" (with the exception of Japan (mai waifu)).

Everyone's bashing this idea but I don't see what they've got that's any better. Some have even said that "taking money out of politics" doesn't do enough, but that seems like precisely the solution.

Literally burning the money would be more of a solution, how can they possibly spend 5 million dollars in a way that reduces the influence of money in politics, it is a tautology
