the prophecy of return had a typo, Q is only human ya know

Dems are just pretending primaries now.

Ignoring the opposition is a tried-and-true political strategy, as any engagement is ripe for media coverage and boosts your opponent’s name recognition.

This isn’t an insidious plot by Democrats to guarantee Joe Biden a fast track to re-nomination nearly so much as it is a consequence of a heavily privatized and censored private sector media landscape. Biden had the same uphill struggle when he ran for President in '88. Clinton went full clown mode in '92 because playing the sax on Arsenio Hall forced people to say his fucking name, whereas Jerry Brown and Paul Tsongas wasted away in obscurity.

RFK Jr running the podcaster circuit is at least as smart a move as anything Ralph Nader or Ron Paul managed under similar circumstances. Free media is worth its weight in votes.

Unless you’re running Green or left-er there is no left in American politics anymore.

There continues to be a real struggle between liberal and conservative political forces in the US. But its a Coke/Pepsi fight over market share more than a material fight over policy.

There’s also a very real economic struggle within the US as a result of its fading international image. Ukraine is an outgrowth of that. Sudan is an outgrowth of that. Our pissing match on the US/Mexico border is, too. Our increasingly contradictory relationship with India and the South Pacific, as well.

Politics is happening everywhere. The Leftist angle is simply the only one you’re seeing, because of where you’re positioned.
