  • Neoliberalism (what Regean spearheaded) crushes the common man and its widespread embrace has deprived people of the ability to hope for stuff like a house or the ability to afford a family. People are struggling and want change - centrists are failing to deliver that.

    One thing to observe is that in areas where true left wing governments hold sway (like Spain) they’re thriving. But yeah, disappointing centrists marauding as liberals (like Starmer) underdeliver and then get extremist right wingers elected.










  • Trump appointed a family member as the GOP chair and it looks like Baron is being setup to get another nepotism appointment. That fucking rot goes deep.

    I don’t disagree that most GOP politicians want him gone - I don’t think he’s ever been popular with senators or house reps… but everyone still in an elected position is either a true believer or someone who knows to keep their mouth shut - the fucking voting base is insane. As a parallel I’d point to our unfortunate BC provincial politics where a party attached the conservative label to themselves and jumped from 0 to like 40% of the expected vote share overnight.

    Conservatives are fucking crazy and do not give a shit who their actual reps are - they’re entirely identity based voters.
