May the great heat death kill us all without prejudice. I'm just done.

It's really short, I read the entire thing last night, but it probes into the right-wing online space deeper than any other scholarly resource I've read.

Yeahhh her weird pivot to the middle at the tail end of her campaign is going to go down as one of the biggest political blunders of the modern age

There was never really that much risk of Dems losing voters to the Repubs (at least as long as Trump was the R candidate). The real damage came from Dems losing enthusiasm.

Ozma, aren't your fingers getting sore pressing ctrl+c, ctrl+v all day?

Keep on keeping on. You're by far my favorite poster

Not enough time. Even before Harris was the candidate, she was pretty much treated like the de facto nominee immediately after Biden left. It would've just muddied the waters even more to go from Biden to Harris but then to another candidate after a quick primary.

It doesn't hurt the fact that she got a massive boost in polling right after Biden dropped out and endorsed her. There wasn't much reason to think that anyone else would poll better than her.

I have never understood the phrase "mountain out of a molehill" more than I did reading OP's past few posts.

Anyone who hasn't read Kill all Normies by Angela Nagle, buy a copy (and ignore the name, it's anti-Trump). It's written about the first Trump election but seems more relevant now than in 2017.

The Right was able to weaponize online spaces far better than the Left, against all conventional wisdom that the Dems were the party of the young people and the Repubs for the older ones.

Class is the only thing that matters. The rest are just divisionist terms made up to keep the poor whites from seeing that their struggle is the same as the poor blacks.

Those postings are put up by recrutiers for jobs that don't exist to pad their rolodex in case they happen to get a overqualified candidate. There aren't actually any $20/hr entry level remote jobs on the market.
