average democrat senator btw
This is why no one trusts Democrats. The constant triangulation leaves them in this space where you can never tell which side of their mouth is the one saying what they really believe. So whenever they say anything, it always feels like they’re hiding something.
They’re also just as susceptible to the arguments Republicans make, so long as Democrats make them
“Oh border security” is an argument they used to viciously mock
Suddenly, it’s an ‘issue’? Is it really, or did the political party you lie down with decide they were going to stop fighting it?
yes they implemented Romneycare instead of universal Healthcare/medicaid for all but that’s only because it was the best they could do in a short period of time
Or from the dnc, we will have the most lethal military ever!
What the hell is triangulation I have never seen that word so many times in my life
triangulation
It has other meanings, but In politics, it’s when a politician adopts some aspects of the opposing party’s stance on an issue in an attempt to shield themselves from political attacks on that issue.
The entire “triangulation” political strategy is credited to Clinton’s presidency and specifically refers to Dems trying to appear above the fray as enlightened centrists by kicking the left and accepting the right’s framing on issues to “get things done” and prevent rhetorical attacks from the right. That’s how we ended up with the Dems passing huge right wing legislation like NATFA, the crime bill, gutting welfare, right wing private insurance reform, etc. It’s a stupid tactic because the GOP will call them demonic commies even if they sponsor GOP bills themselves.
That’s what the Dems became after the DLC party reforms in the 90s and they’ve spent more than two decades capitulating and pre-negotiating with themselves. Dem leadership is all from that era which is why you get people like Pelosi et al saying they want a strong GOP or whatever.
The third sentence is the most relevant
So it’s not left or right, but some new third way
Centre party (fascist)
Liberal Socialism Party (Hitlerite)
Christian Democrat (Strasserite/Pan-Arabic)
IIRC I think one of the Chapos said that the Biden/Harris admin embracing “tough on immigration” policies looked to a casual observer like the Dems got caught doing what the Republicans are accusing them of (bringing in illegals to steal jobs and vote for the Dems) and are trying to backtrack in a panic. Why else would they be crying about Orange Hitler’s policies in 2020 and then rushing to “close down the Southern Border if the Dem immigration bill is passed” in 2023?!
They were betting on voters not having any memory beyond like 2 weeks ago, maybe 2 months at best. If they think everyone only cares about the current news cycle than consistency doesn’t matter at all, its all about the appearance of caring about [insert random current issue here] while doing zero to actualy address it in the long term.
In general it is successful as political strategy most of the time as they can control the media in the first place etc…
Foxes and wolves, as Malcolm X used to say.
‘The border was a mess’
HOW ARE YOU THIS BIG OF A STUPID FUCKING ASSHOLE
Hi Mr. Brian, I am the wallet inspector from the FWI and I will need the information for all the credit cards (number, CVV, billing address) in you wallet immediately.
Yeah the border was a mess because, instead of just letting people through, you insisted on shooting each other and yourselves in the head and feet. Some of you even drowned while trying to drown other people.
I’m actually 100% serious. The people sent to guard the border weren’t the best and there were multiple firearm accidents involving US troops shooting each other or themselves. One guy was spinning a pistol in his hand wild west style when he accidentally set it off.

This is the kind of shit that happens when you think you’re too cool for a manual safety

They will do it again.

i absolutely love Adam Johnson and I would suck his dick as a thank you for his service right now if I could

heaven forbid a girl kill two birds with one stone
I mean hey suck away, I ain’t judging
You’d have to get through Computer Scare first
Don’t forget Red Scare and Backup Scare. Also possibly the Bitcoin Wallet Inspector and A Very Throwable Brick
what about AI scare?
There’s no backup scare anymore
because of woke 😔
Sexually objectifying a stranger because you like their tweets, what the fuck.
What’s wild is how this is very upvoted, but let’s say it was a woman who made a tweet and someone commented that they would go down on her for her service. That would get removed and certainly no one would just fucking let it pass. Gross as hell.
CW: Sex topics and gender norms i guess?
My uneducated opinion is that when men do that to women online there is an unstated threat of force. Especially taking into account the mainstream (misogynist) narrative that sex is something men do TO women and not WITH women. So to me it seems like flipping the genders is not strictly an actual parallel between the two situations.
All that said, i honestly also believe that thirst comments should be stricken down by the volcel police. On the other hand, I do feel somewhat obligated to support womens rights and wrongs, including weird internet comments that are not made in good taste
The VOLCEL POLICE are on the scene! PLEASE KEEP YOUR VITAL ESSENCES TO YOURSELVES AT ALL TIMES.

Oh thank Lenin you’re here officers.
However this fails to address any type of intersectionality. Because white women sexually objectify men of colour as a historical weapon of oppression. Able-bodied people sexually objectify disabled men as a historical weapon of oppression. To say that sexually objectifying strangers is okay as long as they meet x-y-z criteria is absolutely ridiculous. Just poor taste misogyny masquerading as “feminism” because it’s being done to men now. The same nonsense as girlboss feminism or whatever.
ALSO completely ignores that men can be (and are) victims of sexual harassment and assault, and you are potentially sexually objectifying someone who has survived such experiences. This also fuels the attitude that men are always perpetrators and thus cannot be victims, which makes a really toxic environment that alienates men who have been survivors who feel they are not taken seriously because they, as men, are inherently unable to be objectified and aggressed upon. Really icky behaviour to excuse with jokes
EDIT: and don’t get me started on how inappropriate it would be to say shit like this about an asexual person who is sex averse
STOP OBJECTIFYING PEOPLE, it’s chud behaviour no matter the reason or direction
ok, i stand corrected. thank you for taking the time to comment
He’s also co-host of

Adam belongs in the Poster Hall of Fame. The man has been taking apart these ghouls and dipshits with a scalpel since the earliest days of the Gawker comment section and before. The original Kinja Ninja.
Remember the „kids in cages“? Yeah resistance dems forgot about them the minute biden was president. Or
eattax the rich? Orabolishdefundhiring freeze the police?Biden said he will undo Trump’s policies like the tax cuts, lmao
“wrong jack, i said i would up do them. like do them better and more”
The thing they say about cutting taxes is… Like my Aunt Gertie used to say… Man… My Aunt Gertie was the best back-scratcher in the world… I’m sorry I shouldn’t have said that.
This fucker thinks doubling Steven Miller’s Gestapo would fix any problems at the border.
I’ve been saying for years: Democrats’ problem with the Holocaust wasn’t because it was the fucking Holocaust. Their problem was the SS didn’t get sensitivity training seminars.
Fuck these guys and their “Are you sure this is a good use of your time?
” responses. Both extremely condescending and yet extremely childish at the same time, like they’re a 6 year old trying to emulate a teacher giving a lecture.
“Should you reeealy be asking a representative about their voting history?” from the party that claims to be the last bastion of democracy.
“Listen sweaty, if you hold the democrats accountable for their actions, then the republicans win!”
“Let’s not bicker and argue about who killed who”
Adam is so good at posting
Do you think this is a good use of your platform right now?
YES!
Adam Johnson one of the only people making good use of X.
Brian really Schatz the bed

what do you expect from a white guy representing Hawaii?
Holy shit. He’s from Hawaii and he gives any fucks about the border? That affects absolutely zero Hawaiians and he should be exclusively about sending more money to Hawaii.
he’s literally a colonizer crying about “border security”. i mean every cracker in america that’s on this shit is, but added that he’s representing hawaii. damn
Adam in the go off king arc rules
It’s fucking hard to be right all the time
