A bloodbath of a report that not a single conservative in the U.S. will ever read.
Meaning all they have to do is find some wedge issue, like some shit going on clear on the other side of the planet, to convince liberals and independents to stay home or vote for ridiculous 3rd party candidates that literally can’t win. Meanwhile, literally every conservative will show up and find the ® and color in the box next to it and we descend further into fascism.
P.S. This is not a call to give up. This is me trying to point out that we can’t let some distraction prevent us from voting in massive numbers. No more getting sad and staying home or getting mad and voting for a 3rd party with no path to victory to “show the Dems”. REMOVE POWER FROM THE FASCISTS.

You’re crazy if you don’t think armies of financial analysts aren’t pouring over these figures and still showing up to pull the Red Lever come election day.

That’s just been them screaming “Trannies in the WNBA!” for the last two months. Transgender athletes, furries, Muslims, women with purple hair, immigrant caravans, the perfidious Chinese - it’s been GOP Greatest Hits all year long. Hasn’t done them any favors, because all this shit is played out. If anything, its fueling a backlash as groups like DSA tie rising prices and psycho police back to reactionary Islamophobia and Xenophobia and their attendant policies.
That’s not to say the centrist politicians aren’t trying to throw cold water on a Big Blue Wave. Schumer’s come out and said he thinks it would be fine to lose the Michigan and Maine Senate races. Hakeem Jefferies and Tim Walz have done dick-all to stand up for the police harassment of Ilhan Omar. Being professionally mad at Mayor Zohran Mamdani is now a full time job for a lot of right-wing journalists. Folks like Krysten Sinema and John Fetterman are outright campaigning for Republicans.
But since all these people are already seen as repellant (at least in this election cycle) its not doing them any favors.

Sure, sure, inflation and whatnot, but did you know TRANS PEOPLE EXIST??? Vote for us!
