Now we're getting somewhere. Look up the term "manufactured consent"

Macroeconomic measures are woefully inadequate. When the average person in the US reads articles like this while they're on the struggle bus it feels like gaslighting. There's a reason economics is 2, arguably 3 of the top 4 issues for voters this election. Is it because they're too dumb...

Yes, but also I don't buy that if she's elected she's suddenly going to go left or something. That doesn't happen. If she's going to get painted as an extremist either way, her campaign should lean into her and Tim Walz's progressive record (very popular things if messaged correctly). This...

This is crazy. How can we vote for things that aren't on the ballot?

I do blame the democrats. That's what I'm saying. But it's not because they dumped Biden (good!) but because they assumed it was only because he was old. I don't think Kamala sucks because she has bad vibes and says dumb ****. I think she sucks because her and her campaign have dodged a bold...

PJF posting political memes in this thread is hilarious. Do you even know where tf you are?

No. This is patently false. She's disappointingly moderate in every conceivable way. Just goes to show everybody that once again, it doesn't ****ing matter how fast a Democrat runs to the center, they'll always be painted as extreme. You don't need to accept the narrative though.

Great post, The thing of it is. Even if we get a Kamala-Walz presidency for 4-8 years, with their milquetoast policy agenda that improves very little of our daily lives and just serves to maintain the status quo, there's going to be a referendum against the ineffectivity of half-measure...

I couldn't give less of a **** about his vibes. He could be a much worse person than he is, and if he came out tomorrow with an aggressively progressive policy agenda (in a believable manner!!), I'd vote for him in a second. I could go down the line on what I think he's going to do in...

I agree that the Harris campaign needed to articulate a different vision from the Biden administration. It was a huge issue. They were reticent to uncouple themselves, which was terrible, IMO. I think this was by design. The people at the top of the Democratic Party are full of unimaginative...

Legacy media decline has been in progress for more than a decade. I don't know where we end up landing. I'll say one thing. Coverage for the ongoing genocide in Gaza has been very suspect up until recently. Our media has always had a pro-business, pro-status quo, and Pro-US State Dept bias...

This is unhinged. Calm your damn ****

Question for all, If Harris loses to Trump, whose fault is it? Who do we think gets blamed? My take: Harris and her handlers have run a terrible campaign post DNC. There were opportunities to capitalize on and none were taken advantage of. Instead, they've only further exacerbated issues...

I'm wrong btw, we got five medals in Paris:

The most embarrassing thing is that even with all of these guns lying about, we can't seem to medal in any of the shooting competitions at the Olympics. Like, what are we even doing?

How do you even get that? LMAO

@LogGrad98 over here just trying to get paid.

I'm a hog now. I love windows and I love trump, the only pro-window candidate in this race.

I ended up choosing that because the question is framed so terribly. A more accurate response is that an expert, on average, will be right more often than an uneducated person. However, a lot of the time, established "wisdom" often holds us back from moving forward. We need experts, yes. But...

I didn't identify any questions that offered a Marxist response. The entire spectrum is well within a capitalist framework. I don't think you can say how many steps away from Marxism those ending up on the left side are.
