Who are you voting for, anon?

So far, the top candidates are:
Jill Stein (Green)
Cornel West (Independent)
Claudia De la Cruz (Party for Socialism and Liberation)
Joseph Kishore (Socialist Equality Party)
and now "Based Chase" Oliver (Libertarian)

and then there are some unserious candidates nobody likes.

It is far, far too late for that. How well did that work with Bernie? It made the left stupider and self-own, which was the point of the herding operation.

You would put up a party as a matter of procedure, but you aren't going to win a single thing ever or come anywhere close. By now nothing can get through the millions of filters and all of the things politicians do to not be destroyed.

Even the smallest offices are now wholly unusable for any good purpose - but then, that's been the point all along. You're not there to tell people nice things if you're a politician. You're there to play ball and you'd be a fool if you thought it was about anything different. If you think this is about optics or "teaching the controversy" you're part of the problem at a basic level. Again, sure you would put up a party to look like you're an actual organization with a popular base, back when that mattered. It hasn't mattered for nearly 25 years now, and not in a highly abstract way. It hasn't mattered in a very basic way that nearly everyone in the country senses. The two parties are racing to destroy even the pretense that they need public support, both called for the end of the facade in 2020 (because it had effectively been destroyed). If you want to chase after votes in an obviously rigged election and think you can rejig your message for next time, I don't know what to tell you.

Only thing you can do when the process is this farcical is make clear the obvious deformities of the process, that the ruling elite won't let this end without a war, and that we're being lined up for more bullshit to get poor people killed. Pretending those aren't the stakes is a waste of time.

That said, I don't fault anyone for forming a party to try, but every leftist candidate will tell you in no uncertain terms that the process is not salvageable. They're not that stupid, even the nutters who make running for President as perennial candidates their hobby horse.

Nevada Democrats sue secretary of state and Green Party to block Jill Stein from ballot

The Democratic Party is escalating its attacks on third-party candidates in an effort to block any challenge to the two-party monopoly. On June 11, the campaign of Green Party candidate for US president, Dr. Jill Stein, reported that the Nevada State Democratic Party has sued the Nevada secretary of state and the Nevada Green Party, in an autocratic bid to keep Stein off the ballot.

In order to advance socialism, we must advance democracy and democratic reforms.

If some find me too “liberal” let us consult our wise teacher, the venerable Vladimir Lenin. From his 1905 treatise Two Tactics of Social-Democracy in the Democratic Revolution, chapter II; What Can We Learn From the Resolution of the Third Congress of the R.S.D.L.P. on a Provisional Revolutionary Government?

“In answer to the anarchist objections that we are putting off the socialist revolution, we say: we are not putting it off, but we are taking the first step towards it in the only possible way, along the only correct road, namely, the road of a democratic republic. Whoever wants to reach Socialism by a different road, other than that of political democracy, will inevitably arrive at conclusions that are absurd and reactionary both in the economic and the political sense. If any workers ask us at the given moment why we should not go ahead and carry out our maximum program, we shall answer by pointing out how far the masses of the democratically-minded people still are from Socialism, how undeveloped class antagonisms still are, how unorganized the proletarians still are. Organize hundreds of thousands of workers all over Russia; enlist the sympathy of millions for our program! Try to do this without confining yourselves to high-sounding but hollow anarchist phrases—and you will see at once that in order to achieve this organization, in order to spread this socialist enlightenment, we must achieve the fullest possible measure of democratic reforms.”

I have discovered that Lenin becomes more relevant every year, not less, to the current conditions of the United States. Lenin said socialism is about people’s power. How can you have a working class state, where the workers are in charge, without the workers being properly organized, politically, economically, and socially, to even reach a point where that is possible or gaining the knowledge of their own true power and the experience of making their own decisions? A worker cannot run the state if they do not even understand or participate in basic democratic elections and civic affairs. Ultra leftists have attempted to turn Lenin into a mascot of their immature fanaticism while ignoring the brilliant Marxist and enlightened small-d democrat he actually was. This is something we must correct. Only by defeating fascism and preserving our democratic republic will we press ahead on the road to socialism. It is our party’s detractors who do the most harm to advancing communism, by allowing liberals to lead political struggles, rather than communists. If you cannot organize voter turnouts, then forget about your revolution.

Ironically, our enemies see this clearly. “Famous Chinese leaders like Mao Zedong and Mikhail Gorbachev loved democracy because democracy is a step toward socialism, which is a step towards communism,” said Loren Culp, failed GOP candidate for governor of Washington state. At the Conservative Political Action Conference (*****AC),during a panel moderated by Steve Bannon, fascist Jack Posobiec told a crowd “Welcome to the end of democracy. We are here to overthrow it completely. We didn’t get all the way there on Jan 6, but we will endeavor to get rid of it’.” And let us not forget that GOP congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene swore at a 2022 event hosted by the NY ***** Republicans, that if she had organized the Jan 6th coup, along with Steven Bannon, that the insurrection would have won and would have been “armed.” At this same event, the President of the NY ***** Republican Club, Political operative Gavin Wax, told the crowd, that “we want total war.” Echoing the language of Nazi propaganda minister Joseph Gobbels, who asked assembled Nazis in 1943, as the tide of war turned against Germany, if they desired totalen krieg, total war. Wax said “We must be prepared to do battle in every arena.” “In the media, in the courtroom, at the ballot box. And in the streets.”. As communists, we must be prepared to answer in kind, on each and every front.

President Biden, has rightfully earned the epithet Genocide Joe, for his appalling and indefensible support for Israel’s ongoing military campaign. He cannot be entrusted to defeat the fascist danger on his own, because he himself aids in the erosion of U.S. democracy too, by bypassing congress for weapon sales to Israel and authorizing airstrikes in Yemen. Congress has shown an inability or an unwillingness to legislate while we have seen an increased use of executive orders to circumvent our dysfunctional and gridlocked political system. The trend of centralized decision making around one man, as the answer to a country’s domestic problems, characterizes a world wide political phenomenon. Biden’s democracy vs autocracy thesis holds more weight than he may realize, yet he himself also contributes to the problem.

In order to successfully defeat Trump, and protect democracy, we must mobilize, organize, and rally the great masses of the working class majority in this country, which the Democratic Party often fails to do themselves. After all, the 2020 Democratic victory in Georgia, was accredited to non-partisan grassroots community organizers, instead of the Democratic National Committee political machine. Our Co-Chair Joe Sims said that “defeating Biden’s support for the Israeli government’s genocide in Gaza is the path to defeating fascism in November.” The massive show of force in the key swing state of Michigan, where over 101,000 people voted ‘uncommitted’ rather than for Joe Biden in the Democratic primary, shows how high the stakes are for the fight for a ceasefire. Make no mistake, the fate of Palestine and U.S. democracy are now intertwined. Failure to reach a ceasefire could very well mean a defeat for Biden in Michigan and even in the entire general election. While Biden will have no one to blame but himself for his defeat, the results would be catastrophic. Ironically, Biden’s love for Israel might end up with the U.S. becoming a Janus-faced Israel; a fascist country led by a corrupt authoritarian, at the helm of a far right wing party, in command of a cruel and hateful security apparatus. We must do everything in our power to ensure this does not happen.

Just an FYI as someone who worked with Greens on the ground, they are not a "left wing party". They have a habit of running left-wing presidential candidates, partly becuase they are the only party with national coverage willing to let left-wingers run a ticket. But the "left-wingedness" of the Greens is driven by social media. At the local level, Greens are mostly just Republicans and Democrats with solar panels. They've also held multiple mayoral positions and don't appear to be transformational at the national level.

There isn't any left-wing party in the United States. Even less reason to form one nowadays that a right-wing president would be emboledned by SCOTUS to just say "nah I don't think I'll let you", if a lefty actually won a super important election here.

They are a Christian Party - as in, Christian Supremacists. They run on abortion because that tugs at the strings of those who are very, very devoted to the issue to the point of obsession, as a lead in to what they really offer, and because with Roe gone, the hardliners on abortion are wondering why there's no ban on abortion with any teeth that really speaks of why it continues. Their solution - which was inherent to the party's purpose - was that Christianity needs a greater role in civic life. They have to deny that they're the "Christian Nationalist Party" for a variety of reasons, but that's really what they're for. The Constitution is in so many ways a dead letter. The Bill of Rights have all been abrogated, as have many of the amendments. The functions of basic government have eroded by the wishes of the prevailing participants, and if you actually looked at the thing, it is not something you could bring back in the form that is invoked, nor was that the intent. Funny thing about the Constitution is that the framers believed - all of them believed, though they disagreed on how it would happen - that the document would be revised in total periodically, and that such an assembly could occur without devolving into mayhem, because it would be stupid to think the law is static from an imagined starting point. The starting point of the Constitution was that it was rammed down the country's throats and a lot of the men passing it hated the thing and knew it was a bad deal. But, it was there, and the alternatives to reform it were "slavery" or "rejoin the British Empire". Both of these were stoked by the same forces, which eventually got what they wanted and began the long process of dismantling the country outright.

I honestly don't care about "left vs. right." Tbh my personal ideal would be that the Greens, Libertarians, West, PSL, etc. just join forces for one election to fix our foreign policy and then work out the kinks afterwards. It's unlikely to happen, but it would probably be the best electoral outcome. We're headed into an era of empire desperately trying to protect itself from collapse with increasingly brutal repression, and also an era of an overstretched empire at a vulnerable point where it can be hijacked by Odoacer types. What I'd like is to alter the course, and I don't care if others who disagree with me on a lot of things are involved in that - I find right-libertarian economics very dumb, but I'd still love to have them on board for a coalition if it meant the country that I live in doesn't get trampled by the Iron Heel or instigate WWIII.

My thoughts:
1. He needs to get the ***** out of the presidency already. He's not right in the head. Whether or not she ends up being the DNC nominee, Harris, purely for successional reasons, should be president right now.
2. She has a better chance than he does - Biden 2024 would absolutely have been doomed. I think Harris 2024 probably still is, but it's a somewhat more subtle kind of doomed. Harris has the stink of the Biden administration on her - she's not senile, sure, but she's among the DNC sycophants who covered up the president's mental state and supported the genocidal party line. She has one definitive advantage over Biden, and that's the 'not senile' part.
3. My previous belief was that the Dems are trying to lose on purpose. I still believe it, but I think it's possible that they're just trying to be less obvious about it now. The same interests still largely control both the DNC and GOP. If Biden had stayed in to election day, it would have been an absolutely certain no doubt loss for the Dems without any risk of victory. Maybe they figured they can still lose with Kamala. If Biden stays in the presidency 'til November and Harris doesn't change course hard to reject Biden's foreign policy, then she'll have a higher risk of not being able to escape association with Biden's worst policies.

Oh, they're giving up the election outright. Democrats could win this with literally anything simply by offering something anyone would want to vote for instead of going out of their way to be as disgusting as possible, but the script didn't call for that. So, nothing they choose would be about "winning" at this point. This is about getting the country ready for what comes next.

This was going to happen, and it happened around the time it would - with Donald Trump confirmed as the Republican nominee and no primary on the Democrat side. It was a question of how they'd go about doing it, but they were never going to run Biden 2024 with what had built up, and this was likely agreed to when Biden won in 2020. It was necessary to abrogate the primary process and ram something the people really don't want down their throats.
Had Biden been able to stand up and withstand what was coming for him, they probably play out the script with him, but no one survives that. Guy was a sitting duck for attacks from all angles, and no one really liked him.

I still don't know who they will pick for certain, but I'm guessing Harris is agreeable enough and would stay the course we're on most effectively. Since she's not there to win, they aren't thinking about whether she'd be a good President. She does, believe it or not, have a base that's into her and what she brings to the wrestling ring. She's also a complete trainwreck of a person, but that's part of the "game", I imagine.

I can tell you right now - the people who still vote already know what they're voting for, and there isn't any wiggle room to change their minds. This is all about getting through as much pain as they can during the succession. The only thing that would really change the outcome of the election would be someone coming up who states bluntly the country is about to end, and it is better to end it in a way that favors certain interests rather than let the Trump plan go ahead. We all know what that becomes.

Sham elections require the ruling power to keep raising the stakes, or else no one has any reason to believe this is real. If the elections are purely for form, why spend the money on them? They don't convince anyone of anything, and it's harder to stay in power while maintaining this much of a facade with all of the interests to pay off.

What is paid now for the show is exorbitant - not that they are lacking for money, but among the things paid out are the dribble-down effect to placate the army of influencers, to feed the fags.

They do not need elections to convince people to let them rule. That was locked in a long time ago. They use elections to break people psychologically into accepting any depravity, to say "this is what you are".

There's no more need to break the slaves in. You had the dominant factions of the country calling for cancellation of the elections. The only people who don't want it to change are the people who are cast out, who know that once the mask drops, they're dead and they won't have allies. This is what has been built up since the 1990s. You assholes selling these myths made it worse for all of us, but fags will always be fags.

The independent presidential candidate is currently on the ballot in 16 states—including the critical swing states of Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Georgia. Last week, West was thrown off the ballot in the key swing state of Michigan after the Democratic Party successfully got him disqualified over West’s campaign’s alleged failure to properly notarize election forms.

West’s campaign will challenge the Michigan disqualification in court on Friday, August 22nd.

The Democratic Party pressure campaign to get West to bow out of the race comes amidst reports that RFK Jr. will end his presidential campaign by the end of this week. RFK Jr’s vice presidential running mate, Nicole Shanahan, suggested in a recent interview that if RFK Jr. dropped out, he would throw his support being Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump.

Dems are trying really hard to destroy democracy.

abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/judge-4-independent-party-candidates-off-georgia-presidential-113164604

ATLANTA – A judge ruled Monday that four independent and third-party candidates are ineligible to appear on Georgia's presidential ballot, although the final decision will be up to Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger.

The rulings by Michael Malihi, an administrative law judge, would block the qualifications of independents Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Cornel West, as well as the Green Party's Jill Stein and the Party for Socialism and Liberation's Claudia De la Cruz.

Kennedy on Friday had said he would seek to withdraw his name in Georgia and some other closely contested states as he endorsed Republican Donald Trump.

Democrats legally challenged whether all four qualify for the ballot, seeking to block candidates who could siphon votes from Democratic nominee and Vice President Kamala Harris after Joe Biden won Georgia by fewer than 12,000 votes in 2020.

Raffensperger must make a decision before Georgia mails out military and overseas ballots starting Sept. 17. Spokesperson Mike Hassinger said Raffensperger's office is reviewing the decisions and will decide each as soon as possible.

If affirmed by Raffensperger, the rulings mean that Georgia voters will choose only among Harris, Trump and Libertarian Chase Oliver in the presidential race.

Georgia is one of several states where Democrats and allied groups have filed challenges to third-party and independent candidates. Republicans in Georgia intervened, seeking to keep all the candidates on the ballot.

In the Kennedy, West and De la Cruz cases, Malihi agreed with arguments made by the state Democratic Party that petitions for independent candidates must be filed in the name of the 16 presidential electors, and not the candidates themselves, citing a change made to Georgia law in 2017.

“In Georgia, independent candidates do not themselves qualify for the office of president and vice president of the United States of America for the ballot,” Malihi wrote. “Rather, individuals seeking the office of presidential elector qualify for the ballot to have their candidate for president or vice president placed on the ballot.”

Lawyers for Kennedy, West and De la Cruz had all argued that was the wrong interpretation of the law, in part because Raffensperger's office had accepted the petition without protest. Counties later concluded that Kennedy, West and De law Cruz had each collected the required 7,500 signatures to qualify. The campaigns say it would be unduly burdensome to collect 7,500 signatures on 16 different petitions, for a total of 120,000 signatures.

Malihi also ruled in a separate challenge backed by Clear Choice Action, a Democratic-aligned political action committee, that Kennedy must be disqualified because the New York address he used on Georgia ballot access petitions is a “sham.” The Georgia decision is based on a decision by a New York court earlier this month finding Kennedy doesn’t live at the address he has listed in the New York City suburbs.

“The facts presented to the court concerning the respondent's domicile overwhelmingly indicate that the Katonah address is not, and never was, the respondent's bona fide residence.”

The Green Party has hoped to use a new Georgia law awarding a ballot place to candidates of a party that qualifies in at least 20 other states to put Jill Stein's name before Georgia voters. But Malihi ruled it was impossible for the party to prove it has qualified in at least 20 other states before Georgia's deadline to print ballots, saying the party doesn't qualify.

Supporters of the other candidates have accused the Democrats of undermining voter choice with technical arguments.

The lives of thousands were lost on that day, and millions more in the wars to come. Twenty-three years later, I am the first millennial candidate for president. I am the first who has lived their entire adult life in the post-9/11 world.

My generation may barely remember a time before the TSA, before warrantless wiretaps, before the wars and drones, a time when peace was the goal. Moving forward, we must recognize the failures and no longer be led by fear into the removal of liberty.

May we honor the memory of those who died on 9/11/2001, never forgetting them, and may God bless those who lost loved ones with peace until they reunite in the life everlasting."

No democracy in history was never "imposed". It was always given, in some way, from the ruling power to a selected demos, often without asking the demos whether they actually wanted this or understood what the devil a "democracy" was. The democratic conditions were possible because there were men with something useful who could be requisitioned, whether this was armed men for conscription or the capital of a nascent class. But, no group chose, by some unknown force, to impose democracy for vague and unspecified reason. There was a purpose for all such projects that is understood to the initiates once it begins, and it then falls on them to continue this, as members of the democratic society fill offices and must perpetuate this. From the outset, there are those among the demos who are above the ordinary, and those men often were the ones who established the democracy for their own purposes, going so far as subjecting themselves to the same laws and customs applied to any other member. In practice, the superiors are not equally treated, and the relative influence and value of the members is never equal. The superiors are never fixed by any hereditary law, and so superiors can rise and fall, new men can rise from nothing in theory. Democratic societies do not value any conceit of a stable class hierarchy in that sense or a "ruling class", since in principle, the demos exists because the men are requisitioned for the same sort of functions, which are comparable to each other for political purposes. For example, fighting men need an economic life that allows them to afford the weapons they are expected to provision themselves, producers require security and the means to produce those things, and these two functions would have been understood to the other as necessary for the project to work, without any dickering over which was valued above the other or was placed in any natural hierarchy, where fighting men were naturally there to lord over producers, who were lorded over by priests. The tripartate ordering of society remained, and so religious offices and superstitions were always going to be at the apex of spiritual authority and held a regulatory check on the society, but distinct prescribed classes as such were wholly unnecessary and contrary. The democratic subjects really did not belong to any of the three orders of the tripartate division, but to something which was, for the tripartate order, beneath all. To the tripartate order, all who were not subsumed into its institutions were declared slaves, and democracy was declared a logical and natural impossibility. But, that order required men in some way, and none of the three orders in purified form provided anything. The demos itself, which properly belonged to the fourth order of the laborers, didn't actually hold anything either. It was the fifth and lowest orders - those who were consigned to suffer and be rejected - who had the real substance and did all of the actual toil and work. Labor was always a thief - perhaps a thief with pretensions that its theft was just and right, taking from the unworthy and giving to the righteous based on need rather than ability or utility. Usually the easiest way for the demos to find wealth was to take it back from the rich whose theft was more rank and obvious, having served no purpose and being the chief cause of social fbi.gov. The trick, in the end, was to turn all such pressure downward - to codify the ritual sacrifice that was at the core of the human race, and make it life's prime want.

Being way too generous wrt Harris. And Trump, too, tbh. They're both only appealing on the grounds of culture war brainrot, they represent essentially the same interests - the best argument for Trump is that he might scale
back US support for Ukraine, but there's no evidence in his track record to support the idea that he'll do that, so it comes off like Nixon promising to get out of Vietnam.
Harris seems, to me, a lot worse than liberals make her out to be. The fact that she is still currently Biden's VP is illustrative of that - she's willing to be second banana to, and run cover for, a president who struggles to stay coherent for 10 minutes. Putting political concerns ahead of concerns about this man's mental fitness and the message it sends to people around the world demonstrates a deep, aggressive level of incompetence comparable to Trump's.

Your analysis about Stein and Chase is fine, though. And De la Cruz is still on many ballots and represents a socialist choice. Stein and Chase are both opposed to US support for the genocide, and I'll vote for whichever of those two is doing better come November… although I'd prefer Stein, of the two.

A lawyer for Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger told justices during arguments Tuesday that it was too late to change ballots, but if the court ruled against the candidates, Raffensperger’s office would place notices at polling places and within absentee ballot envelopes that votes for either candidate will not be counted. With this decision, Georgians will choose between Republican Donald Trump, Democrat Kamala Harris, Libertarian Chase Oliver and Green Party candidate Jill Stein on Nov. 5.

De la Cruz said her campaign is “weighing its future legal options” and called the arguments in favor of the decision “outlandish,” arguing that if independent candidates were to follow the rules as proscribed by the justices, they would have to collect more than 120,000 signatures to qualify for Georgia ballots, an overburdensome number.

“Democratic Party lawyers and the Republican-majority Supreme Court worked together to suppress democracy,” she said in a statement. “This unjust ruling is a reminder of why it is so urgent to build an alternative outside the two-party system. We have a socialist program that speaks to the needs of working people — clearly this is something that scares the Democrats and Republicans, and the Wall Street billionaires who control both parties. Regardless of this ruling, we will not stop organizing in this state and we will continue to spread our socialist message far and wide.”

In an email, a spokesman for West said the campaign continues to encourage supporters to vote for West.

The justices’ decision had to do with the meaning of the word “candidate” in part of state code.

Different anon here.

Yes there is shock-doctrine. A conscious effort that seeks to use or create crisis to attack the interests of the population. It's been somewhat effective, however it is not universal, it cannot exploit every crisis.

A example of it backfiring is the neocon attempt to hit Russia with a double whammy of a proxy-war plus a economic war. The Russian economy actually grew and they improved their diplomatic position in most of the world.

The counter-tendency begins in the peripheral regions, but it won't stay there.

If the neo-libs try to use the hurricane crisis against the affected population, by denying public aid and by canceling insurance that likely will have the effect of destroying trust in insurance. If people are abandoned, that will de-valuate a huge chunk of real-estate that is within climate-disaster territory, once people try to pre-emptively get out. And it also will change climate politics once people begin suffering consequences. When climate disasters begin having systemic effects it will cause a large increase in the demand for labor power.

She literally has been campaigning extremely effectively. She has better ballot access than La Riva had in 2020 afaik, and the Dems had to use really dirty tricks to kick her off of the ballot in my state even after she got on. Even without the states she was kicked off of, her ballot access numbers are higher than in 2020.
I think she's a fine debater, but she just doesn't prioritize it. I don't blame her… I've got nothing against the Free & Equal debates, it's good that this exists, but it's also more-or-less a political ghetto with limited reach.

I'm afraid I have to. Out of all forms of campaigning, debates have by a wide margin the greatest impact in getting your message out there. In fact it's exactly why the Democrats and Republicans formed a private cartel to exclude all other candidates from presidential debates, they took the lesson to heart when Ross Perot shot up in popularity after a single debate in 1992. Ducking out of debates when you're not actually being barred from them is an incredibly stupid campaign move.

And yet she has more ballot access than La Riva. The PSL's tactic of being at the forefront of the anti-genocide protest movement has worked incredibly well. FWIW, it's also been a successful tactic for the Greens this year, but they had a larger base to draw from to begin with. They've also been expanding community outreach as well:

Yeah, but the thing is they largely succeeded, and I alluded to that in the post you're replying to. More folks should watch Free & Equal, sure, but as is the typical viewers are freaks who are super interested in politics. If it had the viewership of the MSM debates, I'd agree with you, but right now it doesn't. More people tuned in to the kooky clown debates about Haitians eating dogs and the importance of Israeli expansion than saw this.

Of course not, but it's a silly comparison because sortition is democratic whereas elections are oligarchic. As far as the best social choice methods go (whether electing people in an oligarchy or making popular choices in a democracy), rating-based voting methods such as approval voting, score voting, and STAR voting are at the top of the pack. It's the same reason that anytime you fill out a psychological survey it asks you to rate how you feel about something on some kind of scale, rather than some contrived preference ranking. Ratings provide information that is more expressive, less biased, and in the case of decision-making less tactical.

If you're obsessing over the right forms to call it "a democracy", you're not doing democracy, you numbnuts. Technocratic conceits are taken for granted so much that you believe that sortition will naturally work because "merit doesn't matter" due to office-holding be a superfluous legacy feature and the system regulating itself. That's what fascism does, and what a fascist would advance to mock democracy.

The Athenians did it that way not because it was "more democratic" but because the idea of elevating a chosen "best" turns democracy into a rubberstamp of the aristocracy, and so the idea that the process of elections meant anything was not automatic. We wouldn't presume that because 50%+1 people voted for one guy (and often not even that) that this somehow grants that one guy greater legitimacy to hold office, knowing all of the intrigues inherent to politics and associations. In Athens, there was no "system" as such, and effective control was hashed out in the backroom, which is how politics really works so far as the club has any say in what goes down. Today, men in suits have these vast, overbearing institutions looming over us. It's insane to speak of democracy in such a society. It's actually amazing that any pretension of democracy survived the 1930s, but what they're doing now is not in any way shape or form "a democracy" in its decisions. The only democratic features were that people still had some of the stuff they accumulated during the republic's rampant plundering of the world.

In reality Athens was dominated by strong orators able to convince the adult free male citizens to select their policies, and to a lesser extent the elected generals and state treasurer (the only elected offices in Athens). Though whenever these elected officials got on the bad side of the people they often saw extreme retaliation for their mistakes in Greek democracies. There are numerous instances of Athenian and Argive demos retaliating against generals that had been seen to have failed them in warfare. The power of backroom dealing to affect government decision-making was much more limited, due to an inability to predict exactly who's going to hold power with sortition offices.

As far as your strangely hostile assessment of sortiiton, you haven't produced an actual argument as to why it can't be implemented today. Our ability to reliably sample people randomly has been honed down to a razor's edge today, with modern computer science and well over a hundred years of development behind statistics and probability theory.

its looking like trump won going by the early votes and poll momentum. Im still not sure which outcome is more useful for the non-reformist left.

Trump himself is fully in the establishment. I trust him to not even do a minimal radical change. On the rogan podcast yesterday he admitted that he didn't lock hillary up because "it would look bad for our country". So on one hand trump winning might radicalize his voter base when they see that even a second time he doesn't make any fundamental change or help them.

On the other hand, if trump wins it might make democratic voters continue to feel tied to the party and "vote blue no matter who". Since they could continue to claim that all that has to happen is a return to normalcy. Trump overturning Roe v Wade has made almost all women leashed to the dems.

And then from the geopollitical view, trump winning might accelerate the downfall of US hegemoney as other countries see us as too politically unstable and start to move away. That alone might be more impactful on domestic politics, via a large crash in the dollars value, than either outcome. Making trumps victory the better option.

I think that there is a strengthening understanding in the US right now that Biden/Harris's genocidal policies and general failure on a number of their base's issues is what's actually losing them the election.

The Dems had opportunities to codify Roe… but they didn't. In fact, while overturning it was part of the Trump agenda, it was not actually overturned until 2022. Trans rights, a medical issue which has been turned into an idiotic political football, are worse now than they were 15 years ago, another thing which happened under Biden which Dems have done ***** all to stop. Biden pulled out of Afghanistan (a famous bungle in its execution, but there was no way not to bungle it - it was either going to be bungled then or 20 years later, there was no realistic way to beat the Taliban), but resumed bombing Iraq & Syria, as well as Yemen. Walz even came out in support of reforming/abolishing the Electoral College (the reason why Clinton lost the election in 2016 but got about 3 million more actual votes), a popular proposal, and the Harris campaign told him to stop.

Some people might still do the dumb "VOTE HARDER!!!" thing, but I think most ***** folks are going to understand that when the Dems ***** up and betray their supposed base this hard, "blue no matter who" isn't going to save them.

The best path forward is for people to prepare for Trump term 2 by arming, organizing, gathering essential supplies, and networking. Even those who still don't think Harris will lose should get ready; and if libs realize that Harris is also extremely evil, then you'll be just as prepared for that as you would if Trump wins. Either way, you're prepared if you prepare. We're headed for another recession very soon, and it's going to be a disaster, and Trump will most likely be president.

Harris creating an opportunity for Trump (assuming he's behind this) not only to position himself as the less hawkish candidate again, but also to run against his own shitty policies is insane.

It was on travel from states the United States had recently been engaging in warfare against. It's very telling that it didn't even include extreme Wahabists/Islamists from Saudi Arabia. It's like everyone turned their brains off on day one with that ban to frame it as bigotry when it was actually a cynical representation of American imperial blowback.

In the context of the american electorate as a whole, I'm not so sure. They did vote biden in the primary and general back in 2020 after all. ***** people seem more ready to break away from both parties and the system as a whole, but they are not what matters in the immediate situation. At kamala's town hall there was one woman who asked if she was going to expand the supreme court to counter trump packing it with conservatives and she dodged while obviously meaning "no".

Trump isn't great on foreign policy either. He delayed certifying nordstream 2 for his entire term, which is what allowed biden to get away with blowing it up later. If he really was working for the anti-usa bloc as liberals(and some leftists) seem to believe, he would have let nordstream be integrated into the german economy and made it harder to break them away from russia.

Trump breaking obama's iran deal and killing solemani(likely no oct7 in a world where hillary won) is a lot like the way he broke Roe v Wade. It's only at the edge of unwittingly breaking the established order, but not enough to actually break it. That only makes the rubber banding back to the 'center' more powerful. Time is wasted reversing his impact while the center gets validation for looking like they're actually doing something cleaning up after him.

Then again, if kamala is left holding the bag for everything going to shit regardless of trumps defeats, we would also have to go through this whole anti-establishment electoral candidate arc again. So discrediting trumpism as a strategy could be a necessary step we are in the midst of.

You're either disingenuous or incredibly stupid. The ban in question was proposed as a Muslim ban, and then altered for the sake of plausible deniability. That's it. No one is naive for not buying the weaselly bullshit which was used to sell an unconstitutional travel ban by the campaign's legal team, it was literally just a watered-down political wish-fulfillment of Trump's promise to enact a "a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States until our country's representatives can figure out what the hell is going on."

Our latest and final poll of Muslim voter preferences reveals a virtual tie: 42% for Green Party’s @drjillstein, 41% for VP @kamalaharris. With only 5% not planning to vote and nearly no undecided voters, American Muslims are set to make a substantial impact on #ElectionDay, especially in key swing states.

CAIR’s message is clear: “Our community is engaged. Now is the time to show the strength of American Muslim voices in this crucial election.” Let’s make sure our voices are heard! 🗳️

#GazaGenocide and #HumanRights remain major factors in shaping voter preferences.

If you are genuinely fooled by the arbitrary steps taken to disguise it, that's on you. I've given you the context. People interpreted it as a Muslim ban because Trump said he'd ban Muslims. It's incredibly naive to think that a travel ban on countries like Iraq, after over 20 years of us *****ing with them, was just about us *****ing with them when the bans corresponded specifically to the announcement of a plan to ban Muslims. The rollout was specifically changed in order to appease the state department and reduce challenges on constitutional grounds by adding plausible deniability; IE it was legal weaselry. No serious analyst sees it as anything else, and it was still challenged in court, at which point Iraq was removed and they added in some non-Muslim majority countries to, again, reduce challenges on constitutional grounds. If you think that he announced a ban on Muslims and this was anything other than his attempt to do just that within legal & political constraints, I have a bridge to sell you.

That's it. That's why people call it a Muslim ban. Nobody is going to give Trump credit for saying he'd do something dumb and then being partially stopped at the implementation stage by the state department and the courts. Even if he doesn't fully succeed, he already told us what he was trying to do.

You're essentially getting mad at journalists for being slightly too clever to fall for the political equivalent of a game of peek-a-boo.

, dumbass. Like, I've been into the process, and your "argument" is just based on ignoring that and continuing to repeat the same flawed argument you started with which doesn't take the process or the context into account. I've told you why your "explanations" do not hold water (the bans could have been introduced earlier if they were unrelated to Trump's stated Muslim ban objective, but they were only introduced by the Muslim ban guy after he proposed a Muslim ban; people accordingly treated it as a Muslim ban which was watered down by Trump's legal team to get through the courts, which is what it was. This is not an "appeal to common sense," because I've already explained the reason that the view is commonly held rather than leaving it a mystery, so you're being disingenuous when you characterize it that way. Trying to split hairs over how effective the ban itself was completely misses the point as well; an incomplete manifestation of Trump's proposed Muslim ban is still the same plan in practice. No one, not even the Trump team when he's not in office, is going to stick their heads in the sand and pretend otherwise; and when I point out how uniquely dense you are, please understand that that's not my argument, but rather me insulting you for falling for a ruse which even the rusers no longer care enough to maintain consistently.

Trump three Electoral votes short of threshold

The Republican’s projected victory in Pennsylvania has put him three Electoral votes short of winning the presidency. He could win the White House by capturing Alaska or any remaining swing state.

Trump takes the stage in Florida

The Republican candidate has taken the stage with his family and running mate JD Vance, just moments after the AP projected him as the victor in Pennsylvania.

Trump now has 267 Electoral votes, just three shy of victory.

He is expected to get those Electoral votes from Alaska.

Trump begins speech claiming ‘the greatest political movement of all time’

Trump has thanked his supporters.

“We have thousands of friends in this incredible movement,” he said in West Palm Beach. “This was a movement like nobody’s ever seen before, and frankly, this was, I believe, the greatest political movement of all time.

“We’re going to help our country heal. Help our country heal,” Trump said in a possible nod to a departure from his typically divisive rhetoric.

We “will not rest until we have delivered the strong, safe and prosperous America that our *****ren deserve and that you deserve”, he said. “This will truly be the golden age of America.”

He then hailed winning the popular vote, although the final national vote count will not be known for days.

Trump says Republican control of Senate will help him to enact agenda

Trump has said “America has given us an unprecedented and powerful mandate”.

He hailed Republicans control of the senate. After today’s results, the party controls 51 seats in the 100-seat chamber.

Trump also claimed Republicans were on track to win the House of Representatives, although control of the chamber will likely not be known for days.

Ukraine’s Zelenskyy, EU congratulate Trump

More leaders have congratulated Trump after he declared victory as vote counting continues:

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Trump won an “impressive victory” and expressed hope that his presidency would bring “just peace in Ukraine closer”.
EU Commission chief Ursula von der Leyen “warmly” congratulated Trump. “We are bound by a true partnership between our people, uniting 800 million citizens,” she said on X. “So let’s work together on a strong transatlantic agenda that keeps delivering for them.”
EU Council President Charles Michel said “the EU looks forward to continuing our constructive cooperation” with the US under the Trump administration.

China hopes for ‘win-win cooperation’ with US

China says it hopes for “peaceful coexistence” with the US as Trump neared a decisive victory over Harris in the presidential election.

“We will continue to approach and handle China-US relations based on the principles of mutual respect, peaceful coexistence, and win-win cooperation,” Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning told a regular briefing.

“Our policy toward the United States has been consistent,” she added.

Mao did not comment directly on the possibility of Trump’s re-election but said the “presidential election is an internal affair” of the US.

“We respect the choice of the American people. After the US election results are released and officially announced, we will handle related matters in accordance with usual practice,” she added when asked if Chinese President Xi Jinping would call Trump to congratulate him.

Israel’s far right celebrates as Trump claims victory

Israel’s far-right government ministers have welcomed the US election results.

“Yesssss, God bless Trump,” National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, who heads one of two hardline, pro-settler parties in Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s coalition, said on X.

Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, who heads the other pro-settler party, said: “God bless Israel, God bless America.”

The Biden administration has imposed sanctions and asset freezes on settler groups and individuals involved in violence against Palestinians in the Israeli-occupied West Bank.

“We expect to have an ally standing unconditionally beside us as we fight the battles that are a war on the entire West,” said Israel Ganz, chairman of the main Yesha settler council.

Russia to judge Trump presidency on ‘concrete steps’

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov says Russia will judge Donald Trump, who has claimed victory in the US presidential election, on his actions.

“We will draw conclusions based on concrete steps and concrete words,” Peskov told journalists, adding he’s “not aware of the president’s plans to congratulate Trump on the election” since the US is an “unfriendly country”.

The FBI has attributed several hoax bomb threats that disrupted Election Day voting to Russian email domains. The Russian embassy in Washington said insinuations about Russian interference were “malicious slander”.

What impact is the war on Gaza having on Michigan’s result?
Teresa Bo
Reporting from Detroit, Michigan

Even though Arab-American voters represent only one percent of the registered voters in the US, many of them are located in this key swing state of Michigan.

They have played a crucial role in this election. Traditionally the Muslim Arab-American community here has voted for the Democratic Party but that has clearly changed in this election. Everyone we spoke to today was extremely angry with what’s going on in the Middle East right now, the war on Gaza, the war in Lebanon.

People are concerned about their relatives living there, their relatives being killed there. There’s lots of anger, lots of frustration with the Democratic party and certainly that played a role in the results that we’re seeing here today.

The Arab-American community say that from now on politicians shouldn’t take their votes for granted. They want their community to be able to influence the US’s foreign policy and they hope that this election will send a strong message to US politicians.

Iran plays down importance of US election

In an initial reaction from Iran, government spokesperson Fatemeh Mohajerani says Iranian livelihoods will not be affected by the US vote.

“The US elections are not really our business. Our policies are steady and don’t change based on individuals. We made the necessary predictions before, and there will not be change in people’s livelihoods,” Mohajerani said, according to the semiofficial Tasnim news agency.

Iran’s currency fell to an all-time low as Trump edged closer to clinching the US presidency again. The rial traded at 703,000 rials to the dollar, traders in Tehran said. The rate could still change throughout the day.

Trump unilaterally withdrew the US from Iran’s nuclear deal in 2018, sparking years of tensions between the countries that persist today. Iran’s economy has struggled for years under crippling international sanctions over its rapidly advancing nuclear programme, which now enriches uranium at near weapons-grade levels.

Iran has also threatened to retaliate against Israel, where US troops now man a missile defence battery, after Israel struck Iran on October 26 in response to two Iranian ballistic missile attacks.

How will Trump’s transition work?

Trump has 75 days before his presidential inauguration to assemble a new administration. That includes filling some 4,000 government positions – from major Cabinet roles to part-time commission members.

Around 1,200 of those presidential appointments require Senate confirmation, which should be easier with the Senate shifting to Republican control. Names Trump has floated for key positions include tech billionaire Elon Musk and vaccine sceptic Robert Kennedy Jr.

Trump’s transition is being led primarily by his friends and family, including his adult sons, Donald Trump Jr and Eric Trump, and his running mate, JD Vance.

Transition co-chairs are billionaire businessman Howard Lutnick and former wrestling executive Linda McMahon, who previously led the Small Business Administration during Trump’s first term.

Lutnick said this year’s operation is “about as different as possible” from the effort in 2016, after Trump won his first term.

Amazon’s Bezos congratulates Trump on ‘extraordinary political comeback’

American billionaire Jeff Bezos has congratulated Trump on his win.

“Big congratulations to our 45th and now 47th President on an extraordinary political comeback and decisive victory,” Bezos wrote on X. “No nation has bigger opportunities. Wishing @realDonaldTrump all success in leading and uniting the America we all love.”

Bezos, the founder of Amazon and owner of The Washington Post, faced intense criticism after he decided the newspaper would not make an endorsement in the presidential election, which critics saw as a sign he feared alienating Trump, should he be re-elected.

George W Bush congratulates Trump, says republic in good health

The former Republican president also has thanked “President Biden and Vice President Harris for their service to our country”.

Bush, who did not endorse Trump despite belonging to his Republican Party, said in a statement the election’s “strong turnout” shows “the health of our republic and the strength of our democratic institutions”.

“We join our fellow citizens in praying for the success of our new leaders at all levels of government. May God continue to bless our great country,” Bush said.

PA and MI were lost over Gaza and Neocons, the data shows that, but the massive shift of men to the right, the exact same demographics as well that voted for Bernie, is absolutely in large part due to the absolute inane Idpol and smug attitudes of shitlibs and just relentless shitting on white people and men while attacking all forms of masculinity, and the sheer overwhelming scale of LGBT/Tumblr gaslighting, establishment purity testing and pushing insane shit on *****ren and through sports.
The fact .org is doubling down on "In fact we need to be more trans" really just shows how narcissistic troonies literally hijack and take over movements and make it all about themselves, literally no attempt at self reflection, somehow, men and 52% of women literally telling the left to go ***** itself and moving to the right, kicking down every even milquetoast left proposition across the country, means they actually want more LGBT purity testing and trans *****.
LGBT is just narcissism wrecking the movement at this point. They won all the major battles and keep slippery sloping because it's used by the Liberal elite to keep class politics out of the discussion and keep the left unpopular.
Like holy *****, literally agreeing with policies of the USSR or China or Cuba, will literally get you banned off .Org and all your posts deleted if it goes against the troonie agenda, yet being a *****ing Democrat cocksucking liberal is perfectly fine. It shows how much of the Western Left is purely just shitlibs.

Most people literally do not care about transness.
I agree that it's not an asset that .org are neurotic about it, but that's because they're wasting time splitting the working class movement by being uptight about it. Also, .org is just run like dogshit in general… and more than anything, this is the left's problem, and it's the (working) right's problem, too; prioritizing culture war bullshit over anything else is ineffective. I agree on the principle that people should be allowed to live, including having prejudiced opinions, in a common workers' movement which focuses on shared class interest rather than prioritizing who you ***** or what you think about who others *****.

The cardinal sin here is that the liberals (and current "left" sites like .org) agree to hash out the culture war on its own bullshit terms; meaning that they (mis)understand it as being the place of the left to eternally engage in the re-litigation of the medical & political status of some 0.01% of the population. Trans people, gay people, etc. are something I'm very familiar with; I've known people who fit these descriptions since I was *****. I don't find it scary or intimidating or any grosser than anything else. I also don't see it as a total impasse if someone does find it scary or intimidating or gross; I think a lot of those people would probably rather not be asked their opinion on it, and yet, for the last 15-or-so-years, our media has been going around asking absolutely everyone what they think about something they didn't care at all about 20 years ago, making sure that the few people who were living under a rock when Jerry Springer aired in the '90s are asked what they think about men getting their balls lobbed off on purpose and taking estrogen to grow tits. It's not a question they need to be asked, and I think it's basically a media op to make people fight over something which doesn't actually affect them much; it's a moral panic for the right, and a "new civil rights movement" for the left to feel good about even though most trans rights had been won by the '90s.

The most potent antidote for this would be to focus on broad economic reform in workers' favor, and that would require the American left stop associating with the Democrats at all. The problem to me isn't one or another "side" in these culture war issues, it's that the debate itself is used as a smokescreen to keep liberal economics going.

It's not just LGBT though. For a while now, the shitlib left have been frankly, on the wrong side shittonnes of times. Constantly defending Lumpenprole who are attacking and abusing Proletarians simply because they are minority and god forbid someone from the public or police dares serves justice upon a psycho. They've pushed Gender bullshit onto *****ren with absolutely batshit logic and poor science, as well as the just freaky bullshit of forcing ***** and fetish based politics on *****ren to begin with. On top of this, it's clear that the Western Left have a clear fanatical outgroup bias, and absolutely despise the white working class, and would be more than happy to flood Western countries with thirdies to destroy "White culture", hence why the insane open borders politics, despite the left and organised labor historically being anti-Mass Migration under a Capitalist context.
All this shit reflects terribly on the left among working class people, it makes the left look like a nihilstic self-hating cult that is completely unhinged, filled with outcast weirdos and is obsessed with shitting all over normal peoples culture, heritage and life.

I completely agree, but the issue is that Shitlibs then instantly bring up Trans issues, Idpol shit, demand you condemn a cop for killing a hitman trying to kill people because the hitman was black, open borders and all sorts of Idpol/shitlib purity tests. I've seen this happen tonnes and tonnes of times before, For a recent example Bernie in 2020 was forced to drop a lot of his pro-worker positions for shitlib idpol ones. Any Leftist that tries to focus largely on economic issues and largely just stays out of the Idpol game, is instantly smeared as a "Brown-Red" and Strasserite by the entire Western Shitlib sphere.
This is why my position, for years now, that a true working class left, has to defeat the Democrats and current shitlib left, and then the true fight against the Right begins.
Also lets be real, a working class movement is never, ever going to be outgroup obsessed shitlibs. Baz at the factory is never going to be spouting "trans rights are human rights" and demanding white western culture be eliminated, it just ain't happening. Most likely a Working Class movement will be Socially Moderate (live and let live as long as it doesn't effect others/*****ren) to center-right by modern shitlib standards.

Regardless of Trump, I think we can expect a hard rightward shift in American politics going forward. Absorbing never-Trumper republicans into the Dem party was bad enough, but this electoral disaster might convince the Dems to abandon even the pretense of Leftish positions going forward. They've already been "drifting" rightwards for ages, but as we've seen since Occupy, BLM, the George Floyd riots, and everything in between, every time they opportunistically take up a leftist position they pay a price for it at the polls and end up recanting later. Even now they're squabbling over which are to blame for their defeat, whether it's because they weren't bloodthirsty enough towards Palestinians or that trans*****uals need to be thrown to the wolves.

The more significant transformation we're witnessing might not be Trump retaking the White House, but that Democrats finally decide to stop half assing things and become even more reactionary than the Republicans. We're already seeing the inklings of it out in California. Especially if there's a Left resurgence during Trump's presidency, I think the Dems are going to go full, mask off fascist to "save the country."

The reason they keep loosing is because they don't give a leftist alternative to the right wing populism we have been seeing in the last 10 years. Harris didn't run on a single platform that was leftist and barely ran on one that was even close to centrist.

According to *****ing who?

Look, we can have this conversation about pediatric medicine in general if we're going to have it. I was put on SSRIs when I was 6 to alter my behavior. It had easily as much (probably more) of a negative effect on me as going on anti-androgens at 13 and regretting it later would have, and I had even less of a choice in it than ***** transhumanists do, yet nobody *****ing cares about ***** psychiatry and all the weird deadening meds they pump into *****ren who are much *****er than the few minors who get approved for HRT are. I think it's a conversation which needs to be had; I think we need to ask ourselves just when it is ok to put minors and *****ren on life-altering medications, I think that's an important question to ask, but for some reason nobody gives a ***** about it until it's convenient for picking on transhumanists. Even if you disagree with the current medical consensus (which could be wrong!) on dysphoria, surely you can understand that the current medical consensus on juvenile psychiatric disorders in general is a much broader and more serious concern. If we were serious about all this, it would be a discussion about that and not about how gr0ss transhumanists r liek bad optics 4 the woke left!!!! xDDD

I think there are genuine questions which could be asked reasonably, but instead people just ignore the medicine and go for idpol-induced moral panics about it. And to be clear, it's not just being done from the "right" or whatever, the tendency of trans advocates to try to distance it, as a phenomenon, from dysphoria and "medicalization" is also *****ing stupid. My position is that dysphoria is a mental disorder and as such it should be treated, and, to date, the least unsuccessful form of treatment has been stuff like HRT. Maybe in the future we'll develop a magic ball which cures dysphoria, schizophrenia, etc. without any pills or anything, but we don't have it today, and so it seems to me like the ethical debate about this stuff is most reasonably left up to doctors and patients and not people who just think it's ewwwwwy.

Two wrongs do not make a right, especially when the first wrong directly led to the next. They torture them as *****ren and nerve staple them, then sell "transition" and the death cult as the "cure".

I resisted some of that, but I'm left with an addiction and fear for the rest of my life thanks to their "help". I can only rail against this. I didn't suffer anywhere near the worst, compared to men and women who had lives and were destroyed by this eugenics insanity.

It should be telling that this was advanced in lockstep starting in the mid 1990s and it was very, VERY militant - always the same eugenics stink that I learned from *****hood. But, we don't get to talk about that. We're the crazy ones for wanting a life other than this degeneracy.

No, the least unsuccessful form of treatment is to stop treating it as a problem. The trans shit is entirely borne from trying to enforce gender stereotypes. If you just let people be who they are without trying to transition them into something else then there is no problem to solve.

Instead of "oh my kid isn't acting like a typical kid of their gender, let me give them meds and tell them they are in the wrong body" they should be encouraged to act however they want without trying to force them into a category. And this goes for adults as well, there is no need to take hormones and have surgery just because you don't fit the cultural stereotype of what a man or woman is.

Anyway, this Mengele experiment doesn't end by some faggy "movement". It ends when we stop lying about what this has been, and once the lies in, humanity will see that they cannot coexist. That was destroyed willfully and unnecessarily. You might have salvaged something before 2000, to get off this death train we're on, but humans don't know anything else. They would be directionless. As long as people retreat to excuses to deny the war guilt of the eugenists, there is no progress. When the war guilt is placed at the center of what has happened in the world, the course of action - for an individual alone against the beast, and for any society where this can be different in some association - is very clear, and there is more to be done than all of mankind put together could accomplish any time soon.

Really though, this only really "goes away" long in the future, if humanity finds something in the world. It would have to be basically divine intervention at this point, and when that happens, it will be very different people living in very different conditions. Humanity's present condition is forsaken. There is nothing to be saved from it. But, we have no good reason to go on like this, and we have some concept of the world where we didn't do this, and don't have to do this any more. It will never be realized through any scheme or working humans today envision. We know easily what we could do differently in our interactions, but there's no way to change it when those interactions are regulated by this insane, Satanic ethos that can always insist on "correcting history". It is our interactions, rather than ourselves or the world generally speaking or any thing in it, that are the problem. We chose to be malicious and vampiric towards each other, because it was too much for humans to get over themselves. They hate us downtrodden "uglies" more than they ever hated their masters. That's what humans are. On a small scale, we change that every day just to be able to tolerate life, but the sadists have for the first time in history engineered a situation where they never, ever lose, and need only push the "win button" given to them by the institutions. That's what has been selected for. That is ALL these institutions could select for. There is no rearrangement of them that would have done much differently. The best that could have happened is that the way out could have more fruitful for the distant time in the future where it really can be different. We're doing the opposite - to ensure humanity will only be a roiling mass of struggle sessions and terror for no purpose other than propping up aristocracy and its smugness.

Personally I don't bother with saving humanity or believing humanity will ever be different. The people who will be different will probably not place any value on "human", and their concept of society and probably their concept of the political would be alien to ours. They probably wouldn't recognize present humans as anything more than animals - not out of a sense of superiority, but because they would be very alien to us. We really could step back and ask ourselves how bizarre humans are here and now, compared to their known history let alone in comparison to most of the universe which had no use for humanity's controlled insanity.

I have to tell you, letting people "be as they are" is contributing to the problem, because the situation they're in is ritual sacrifice. Every time I see "the trans" come up, it's loaded with eugenist insinuation and the same Satanic rot I've seen all of my life. But you try to explain this to people, and you come off as crazy, despite the obvious damage this is doing to the whole society, intended by the malicious to make sure history never changes.

And really, it is absurd we're doing this about someone's gonads or *****ual attraction, but that was never the point. Eugenics and protecting its power of insinuation and taboo was the point, and they have a million other vectors after this one is exhausted. If you ask the people who are "actually trans", none of their thinking is in line with this ritual sacrifice shit that is pushed in media. They do this because they reach an impasse in their lives where this is what they feel they are here to do, and often they're doing this "against the institutions". The institutions are not there to provide spiritual belonging or tell people what they are. That has always been a criminal overreach. In practice, when doctors were relatively sane, they were there to discourage any "transition treatment", because it was not considered a medical matter. Eugenism and the ideological tenets it must defend take center stage in this "debate", more than anything a man does if he feels like he wants to be a girl. The institutions cannot absolve themselves from what they set in motion. But, this is irrelevant because it has been known all along what this really is in all of its aspects. The trans will tell you their life story, but that was not admissible under the eugenic creed and its Satanic cosmology. Many of the trans are assholes who should not be indulged, but those who aren't usually will tell you their specific purposes, and none of them are about upholding some ideology or institutional approval. They're going to do what they want with their body with or without a doctor's approval. More men are self-castrating to rid themselves of something that will never be fulfilled and serves no purpose in the world to come, since it was clear from *****hood they're never going to be allowed to marry or have anything ever again.

A big part of Harris's problem is that she didn't take any stances at all.

> I agree we are going to see a rightward shift, but, not because the dems took up leftwing stances.
That doesn't matter. Any stance to the right of Reagan, however vestigial, gets blamed for their electoral losses in virtually every election. Dem leadership wants the Republican vote, so those assumptions can't be questioned, and neither can the party blame its internal organs which produced this dismal outcome. The only place blame can safely fall is on the left, and right now as the Dems fight over who is responsible for their failure blame is falling on trans people, minorities, immigrants, and Palestinians, in spite of Harris very overtly signaling that the Dems had nothing for them.
>DEms are going to shift right because they are idiots

The issue is the medical and psychological field on this topic is extremely politicized. WPATH leaks have proven that, as well as systematic reviews through European/UK healthcare systems which show much of the research is unfounded/contradictory and all around trash tier.
Also lets be real, little ***** do not *****ing have Gender dysphoria, they have barely even formed a self-identity yet. We don't diagnose Borderline Personality Disorder or Personality Disorders in general really until adulthood because of this reason, yet we are meant to believe that ***** have fully realized sense of gender identity? It's obvious horseshit.
Also I think it's very obvious a huge portion of this (probably 95%+) is Socialized due to it being a social contagion, and is misdiagnosis from Autism and Unstable Borderline Personality traits. It's not a shocker that Autism and BPD were heavily linked to the last "Dysphoria" social panic of the 1990s, anorexia.
The group that is most ignoring reality are the TRAs. Look at the reaction to the Cass Review and see the amount of cope and seething, while US still continues to ignore the most up to date science because it doesn't align with Troonie agendas.
It's not just troonie shit, but the sheer scale of LGBT and ***** propaganda being pushed on people and as part of the general cultural zeitgeist. It's just fact it feels like mass gaslighting at this point, especially as ***** men have far worse life indicators than almost every other group, and are still routinely mocked and ignored and presented as riding on top of the "privilege" ladder.

I dont approveof LGBT being forced on *****, but I dont approve of this paternalistic idea that ***** dont have asense of self-identity.

Little ***** also do know about gender. They know the differemce between man or woman.

Maybe not as nuaced as an adult, but still.

It's also irrelevant because the majority of the cases are not "little *****." Giving little ***** meds for behavioral stuff is way more common than giving them HRT, which usually is started in the *****s and sometimes early puberty. There are very few cases earlier, and those are rightfully controversial, but they are not the typical case.

You're so close yet so far.
This is an extension of the "autism epidemic" because too many parents and ***** saw what that was and began resisting the Nazi-Germanic culture war, and calling for the rooting-out of their agentur. They have to lock down schools and deny *****ren everything to secure the institutions against the damned of the Earth.

Why are you acting like the institutions are at all functional? THEY ARE KILLING YOU OFF, and laughing that you are trained to be afraid of your own shadow. Until you can hate the German, you will never be free from the German. Real freedom, not Germanic "freedom".

Trump appoints Elise Stefanik as ambassador to the UN

https://twitter.com/TrackAIPAC/status/1856040449468698726

WASHINGTON – Rep. Elise Stefanik will be appointed as the next U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, U.S. President-elect Donald Trump confirmed Monday.

Stefanik gained international notoriety for her questioning of university presidents during a House hearing on campus antisemitism, and is widely expected to prioritize the international body's criticism of Israel during her tenure as ambassador.



Stefanik was among the most vocal supporters of Trump inside the Republican Party leadership throughout the Biden administration, including at a time when it seemed the party would potentially shift away toward a new generation of leadership.

She was also among the House Republicans who refused to certify the results of the 2024 election, and has propagated antisemitic conspiracy theories related to population control that have been cited by white supremacists committing significant hate crimes.

While Trump will undoubtedly be highly combative toward the UN during his upcoming administration in a manner similar to his first, Nikki Haley, who was UN ambassador in his first term, will not be invited to join the incoming administration.

Stefanik's appointment is considered a bridge between the hawkish neoconservative wing of the GOP and its ascendant isolationist wing that is working to reject previous Trump appointees from the former category from returning to Trump's cabinet.
