Very good @brianbeutler.bsky.social take on how Dems let GOP and "New Right" dominate political-cultural information spaces simply through craven disengagement: www.offmessage.net/p/the-only-g...
It's actually good, I swear.
Well you guys did tell Dems to ignore the culture war BS and focus on the issues. Why is everyone shocked they listened?
Yeah, I admit that's partially my fault. I thought people were smarter and better than they are. Lessons were learned by me, quite painfully.
But then what would they all write about?
Fascism is an issue. They aren't focused on that. Etc etc etc etc etc.
You've got a point, as long you don't think about observable reality. It's a punchline that's really really true, until you stop to think for half a second.
