    Seriously what is up with these articles? No one has turned on shit. MAGA is a bought-and-paid-for sunken cost for these people. They’re all-in. They aren’t turning on anyone!

    Go ahead and check Raw Story’s “journalistic” history. It’s mostly just hopium/copium slop.

    “MAGA melts down after…” “Trump furious because…” “Judge SLAMS MAGA over….”

    Meanwhile, not a fucking thing is changing, progressing, being fixed, undone, or halted in any meaningful way.

    We’re being sold on action that isn’t happening. It’s an insulting pacifier that ok many people have no problem sucking on every single fucking day- several times a day.

      They don’t want you to take action for yourself. “Don’t worry - someone else will take action. You don’t have to. They’ll deal with it. Don’t think about who. Shhh. No action. Only consume…”

      Seriously what is up with these articles?

      This is our manufactured society now, as we read this bullshit, the right is reading their own versions that show Pam Bondi heroically fighting back against mean, mean Democrats, carefully edited and clipped to make her look like a Valhalla-worthy warrior.

      We let too many people into positions of representation without giving a shit who they were or what they represented, and did nothing to interrupt them as they took donations from companies that want to manufacture our entire world so that they can decide what kind of shoppers they want us to be, and who we’re going to be mad at (each other, they want us to hate each other so we don’t hate the oligarchs and donor-class.)

      If anyone wants to know why so much money is being poured into AI, it’s because that’s the tech that will let them micro-manufacture manipulation campaigns for every individual, on an individual level.

      We are utterly and totally cooked unless people rise up and stop spending money on useless crap and start focusing on their communities and local leadership.

      There are a few MAGA at least questioning if this is what “great” is.

      Not enough to meaningfully dent his base, but it is enough of a start to get Gallup to stop reporting approval numbers.
