There's not really any good case for the Trump 2020 voter to go for Kamala, while there's plenty of quite-compelling cases for the Biden 2020 voter to flip to Trump. I'm rather certain the crossover vote is going to be a very one-way affair this year.

Something I’ve found interesting: despite Georgia’s early vote pool being whiter than in 2020 (there are 353k predominantly white 2020 eday voters who voted early this year) the gender split is basically identical to the one four years ago.

@ettingermentum pretty funny for you to ask this question and then almost immediately retweet this:

The new Echelon Insights National Poll has Harris ahead of Trump on the economy, this is the first poll I'm aware of where that's happened echeloninsights.com/in-the-news/se…

Not only is this insane but it’s just another attempt at fighting a losing battle. Why are you still trying to defend Bidenomics? It’s nearly October!

The Harris campaign just released an 82-page economic policy document. It includes a chart touting US record oil production. kamalaharris.com/wp-content/upl…

it would be funny for politicos to note that one of trump's pardons is already back in jail: jesse benton

@JosephPolitano The underlying assumption that Musk and others are making is that they didn't hire enough white guys, and some vague underqualified "diversity hire" must have fucked it up because a white guy would never.
The goal is to stigmatize hiring women/minorities in senior roles.

Amazing the extent to which whenever any organization does anything bad it is now blamed on "Woke".
How is Crowdstrike pushing out a massive bug tied to liberal social views? Don't bother waiting to find out what actually happened, just blame the people you already disliked

@eigenrobot On one hand, not great that they're trying this. But on the other, it's really funny that they've pumped a quarter-billion dollars into the US with nothing to show for it.

"chinese security forces are operating the west, kidnapping people, and menacing western citizens" isnt even a conspiracy theory its just a matter of public record

incidentally what ever happened to all of the chinese police stations in western countries that everyone knew about they still running or did we quietly ask them to leave, politely

@eigenrobot the one thing that might prevent it would be the potential backlash from Asian Americans and that potential to impact the bottom line. Movie studios are run by executives who want to make money, and it was the globalization of the industry killed off nation-specific bad guys.

@eigenrobot In 2011, MGM tried releasing an updated Red Dawn with China as the antagonist, and China leaned on them so hard they were forced to change the bad guy to North Korea.

every generation of american culture has historically produced a stereotyped model of tyranny for americans to detest in contrast to their own values
what is novel about our current media complex is that no one has the balls to make china that tyrannical exemplar

you ever notice that imperial governors SEEM english coded because they speak in exactly the way english governors of the american colonies spoke in their missives to the crown while they sat isolated at sea after having been driven off the mainland by their erstwhile subjects

@kkkkeafsaaaaf @OzKaterji Ah, thanks for the context. I guess you take the wins you can get. I'm hoping that we can all get through this shit together and emerge stronger. Good luck!

@bariweiss Hey! I liked your article, but you made an error. According to the chart you cited, 25% of millennial MEN think that asking someone for a drink is harassment. No idea what's up with that. cdn.static-economist.com/sites/default/…

@DPJHodges Not a fair comparison. AL switched from D to R b/c of Southern white racial realignment. Shifting demographics and an awful R candidate made a bi-racial coalition viable this year. Presidential approval rating isn't dependent variable. AL voted R in '08 even after W low approval.

@Sudi_Green hiding behind DHS guys to get away from confused Muslims playing it straight. Make their Islamophobia look cartoonishly weak.

@TheRickWilson Why shut it down? The Russians have every incentive to keep it up to further destabilize our democracy.

@Tmpd2 At least, that's the argument. You're free to disagree, but to a certain degree, the protesters are legally protected.
