Children of Men was prophecy.

Bingo

Obviously Biden wants to do this, but he’s signing on this specifically because in exchange he’s getting all the money he wants for Ukraine and Israel.

Different studies for each country (fine print at the bottom of the image)

I’m guessing his part basically has to be a kind of patter song, right?

Claudia de la Cruz seems very based, though.

Yeah idk, something seems off about this data. The UK results are especially weird, I’m not ready to just accept these results. It’s also trying harmonize results from different polls. Might be a broad trend in the US of young women becoming more liberal faster but the idea that young men are more conservative than they were years ago, not sure about that.

This too conveniently falls into reactionary narratives about women.

If Trump is such an existential threat, you would think the Dems would be doing everything in their power to court the votes of the left.

Google “Dusty Deevers”. He is a newly elected state rep in Oklahoma. He recently put forward bills to charge women who get an abortion with murder, criminalize watching porn, abolish no-fault divorce, and a few other batshit ideas.

Unrelated, but I’m a little embarrassed at the fact that I call myself an ML but haven’t read any Lenin yet. Would you suggest starting with State & Revolution, or Imperialism? Or something else?

I think we’re gonna see a lot more articles like this, moreso than in 2020. They’re not directed at us commies - we’re too small in number and they know we’re not voting for Biden no matter what. I don’t think they’re even directed at your typical white DSA-adjacent radlibs - the DNC knows they will fall in line by November.

I do think that the Dems are scared shitless about POC votes - black and Arab-American voters in particular. Recent polls have shown Biden’s support among those groups is dropping precipitously; and not just in terms of general approval/disapproval numbers. The numbers of Dem-leaning POC voters that are considering not voting or voting third party have gone way up since Oct. 7.

Edit: can’t get the link to work, I don’t know how else to get it I just listen to it directly in my podcasting app

The podcast “If Books Could Kill” has a great takedown of him.

capped as low as $3

Weasel words. This is like when a furniture store says they have things marked down “as much as 75% off”; and when you go there barely anything is even discounted.

Wait a sec, I figured everylife dot com was some anti-abortion lobbying site or something. They literally just sell diapers and baby wipes. Not give them away to moms to encourage them to not abort, literally just doing normal ass capitalism. This is an ad campaign to sell diapers.

Edit: holy crap their wipes cost like 2X what wipes cost at Costco.

The only chance Haley or DeSantis have is if Trump dies. DeSantis is already more popular than Haley, and I imagine if Trump dies the overwhelming majority of Trump’s base would swing to DeSantis over her. If the GOP power brokers tried to install her over DeSantis the base would riot, they hate Haley.

It used to be the case you could get a new car and take out a loan with the car company for 0-1%, or buy a used car and get a loan with the bank for 5-6%. I don’t think the car companies are offering those deals now but when they did, for the same monthly payment you could get like a $20k new car or a $13k used car. Given the risk of inheriting someone else’s mechanical problems + you don’t know how well they took care of it, in that specific case new could be the better use of money in the long run.

I’ve helped a couple friends buy a car. I usually say either go with the very low end of new cars, or buy some 15 year old Honda or Toyota that will run reliably for a while longer for like $5k

Oh and she offered to pay bail for an IRA terrorist so … yeah.

I could have sworn we had the emoji of Kirk from the animated Trek series feigning shock.
