  • The working class voted as expected; no need to talk down to people that don’t vote how you want them to.

    I think it is better to continue to talk with people with diverse ideas different from ours and look at where we may agree.

    That is why it is important to escape self-built echo chambers. Many independent journalists and commentators spoke about the increased support Trump was getting from minorities and the disdain people had for Kamala Harris.

    I am looking forward to how third parties performed and to see if more people become anti-genocide or anti-war.


  • State polling showed they were really close in these ten swing states, so no surprise.

    Our economy, our proxy wars that we are funding, and shifts in political views for some due to all these conflicts might have something to do with this.

    Harris was not that popular in her presidential run in 2020 as well.

    The data will be interesting when it is compared to 2016/2020/2024; I wonder if voter turnout increased or decreased!






  • Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said in a message on X that the attack targeted “solely military and security sites” involved in what he said was the Israeli “genocide in Gaza and Lebanon” and was conducted by Iran in “self-defense under Article 51 of the UN Charter.”

    “Our action is concluded unless the Israeli regime decides to invite further retaliation. In that scenario, our response will be stronger and more powerful,” Araghchi said.

    Hezbollah is both an armed group and political party that controls much of southern Lebanon. It is considered a terrorist organization by the United States, although the European Union has only blacklisted its armed wing.

    As the UN Security Council scheduled an emergency meeting on the Middle East for October 2, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called the attack “a big mistake” and said Tehran “will pay for it.” He added: “Whoever attacks us, we attack them.”

    U.S. President Joe Biden said he would discuss a response with Netanyahu. Asked what the response would be, Biden replied: “That’s in active discussion right now. That remains to be seen.”

    The number of ballistic missiles fired was about twice as many as were launched in an attack on Israel earlier this year, Ryder added in a briefing with journalists. The attack in April was in retaliation for a deadly Israeli air strike on the Iranian consulate in Damascus.

    World leaders urged Iran and Israel to step back from the brink and negotiate a cease-fire.

    EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell also called for an immediate cease-fire and condemned Iran’s attack “in the strongest terms,” while U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said the attack was “totally unacceptable” and should be condemned by the entire world."



  • ITT: Blue MAGA and preaching to the choir.

    Dr. Jill Stein has improved the Green Party; y’all just believe anything the duopoly and owner-class media spit out when it agrees with your thinking.

    Muslim support is at an all-time high for Dr. Jill Stein; that is why AOCPelosi, the new attack dog of Blue MAGA, started up again.

    I suggest getting out of the echo chambers and checking out independent journalists instead of continuing the self-censorship.






  • De la Cruz and West – both of whom submitted more than the required 7,500 signatures to gain ballot access – have said they are prepared to take the case to the Georgia Supreme Court.

    De la Cruz and West – both of whom submitted more than the required 7,500 signatures to gain ballot access – have said they are prepared to take the case to the Georgia Supreme Court.

    The Georgia Democratic Party didn’t let up, making moves to appeal the secretary of state’s order.

    De la Cruz’s running mate, Karina Garcia, slammed the Democrats for trying to strip third-party ballot access: “Unable to defend their pro-corporate and pro-war record, the Democratic Party’s desperate plan is to twist the law to remove any alternatives from the ballot to cement the system of two-party rule. Working people are in crises, and neither party has any real answers.”
