regardless of the election’s results it’s obvious this country has gotten way more rightwing especially amongst men and i think a lot of that is what is fed to us online, we have to figure out a way to stop every dude under 35 from turning into crypto hitler

This is a huge blow for any Marxian theory of political economy btw
intense anti-incumbency backlash to inflation has been a global story for all the 2024 elections but you can't really see big electoral dividends from US outperformance on GDP/ investment/ employment/ wages

It's also like, easily one of the most common stories around the world right now
The overall story, so far: Nothing here looks like a story of various campaign decisions or a VP choice or big set piece speeches. It's an electorate mad at the incumbent WH's record and expressing it pretty uniformly everywhere, blue and red states alike.

This is worse than 2016 because people have lived through this shit for a decade and decided fuck it, Arby's being $5 is all that matters. This is an evil fucking country man and it doesn't even deserve the small cushion a Dem house might provide

Trump’s first win felt like an aberration, like America was just in a petulant mood. This feels a lot darker. I don’t know if we come back from this one

The issue of a red mirage is, the finished counties are still showing rightward shifts.

in 125,000 simulations of the election, my statistical model foresaw a narrow Harris win with 54.9% probability however, the model also grouped a number of midwest & sunbelt into a new entity, known as “MEGA ARKANSAS” - an ominous prophecy which i am terrified may come to pass

Israeli troops have besieged the last three functional hospitals in north Gaza, a new chapter in a conflict that has targeted hospitals with an intensity and overtness rarely seen in modern warfare. The AP spent months collecting their stories. apnews.com/world-news/still-…

Apologies to Iowans, whose days of always being politically front-and-center seemed to be over. I didn’t realize how far you were willing to go to win the nation’s attention back

Canada just dropped all charges against the Zionist woman who pulled my aunt's hijab at a rally in May because it ruled the "victim's [Free Palestine] chant could 'reasonably be inferred' as a call for genocide of the Jewish people". cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa/hi…

Israeli senior officer Lt. Col Eyal Shalit Sanir, a battalion commander in the Gaza Division “…Gazans will be concentrated in a very defined area and live as refugees their whole lives without water or electricity until they decide, of their own accord, to emigrate” Full Post “I hope that Jewish settlement will begin in most of the Gush Katif region and the former city of Gaza, that the Gazans will be concentrated in a very defined area and live as refugees their whole lives without water or electricity until they decide, of their own accord, to emigrate—preferably to Europe or Canada—and that in another 10 years, there will be a new 7/10 there”

Biden's advisors keep insisting he can help in the Blue Wall states. These Harris-friendly group of polls finds him between 15 and 21 points underwater in his approval ratings in these states s3.documentcloud.org/documen…

I'm really glad how under every vital post, instead of funny people riffing, every top reply is some blue check painfully not getting the joke.
