“The future ain’t what it used to be.”
-Yogi Berra
I’m actually referring to Democrats and their constant insistence that by getting in a good verbal jab, or some other performative display of resistance, that they’ve “done” anything.
These debate moments and the media reaction to them is a perfect example of what I’m talking about. Performative resistance is all we get from Democrats while they cede materially on all fronts.
We need a term for when you think you’ve gained something or owned someone, through either snark or contempt or sarcasm, but have gained nothing or even lost materially.

lets tax the billionaires out of existence
Yeah “tax”. That’s the word. Sure is the word I’m sure we’ve all been thinking of. Must be.
Meh. A bad dude died. The bad dude’s actions resulted on the order of at least >1 death/ day. If not for their death, we couldn’t be having this broader conversation on what we can do to “solve” the billionaire problem. Even if it involves the sacrifice of one innocent person, its probably all been worth it, and will continue to be if the pattern continues.
losing two peoples < losing many people + starting a broader movement
Its a net gain regardless.

Can I pay to restrict someone elses access?
The next day:
Trump continues to withhold funding in-spite of judges order.
as-in, this is what is actually already happening
There is no points in courts or law if the system charged with administering them is above the law. The supreme court broke our constitution with their interpretation of executive power. Biden should have forced this issue by simply arresting Trump the day after the ruling and then just be like “Sup, Roberts?”
Its a good thing Democrats were consistent in expressing their full throated support for Israel this election cycle.
At March For Israel, Schumer Vows They ‘Won’t Rest’ Until Israel Gets ‘All the Assistance You Need’
Not only did they take the mask off with their support of genocide: they still fucking lost and got absolutely nothing for it
How do I upvote this harder?
I really think SteamOS has the opportunity to break this maladaptive pattern.
Idk. With that camera setup I imagine myself on a black leather sofa with a plain white wall behind it.
