@chercher_ai I don’t have any strong emotions at all, deliberately suppressed or otherwise.

if you finally relaxed the death grip you're holding on your emotions and completely lost your shit right now, which way would you go?

@1butlerianjihad @JustAFamilyMan_ Harris, for instance, tried very hard not to talk about Gaza, because it was a losing issue for her, but some people wouldn’t let it drop, so it was a major issue in her campaign in spite of her best efforts.

@1butlerianjihad @JustAFamilyMan_ “Let”? Who’s letting? The other party and the media have agency too, and can make you talk about things you don’t want to. I also, from behind a computer screen, fantasize about running a campaign against someone who doesn’t fight back, but it’s all a fantasy.

How come Progressives and other Leftists cannot run under their own banner? They have to try to hijack the Democratic Party while also undermining it.

@1butlerianjihad @JustAFamilyMan_ Republicans would find it handy if they could duck out of questions like “do you think taxes on billionaires are too high? Do you think abortion should always be illegal?” But they can’t. That’s how it works.

@1butlerianjihad @JustAFamilyMan_ How about: “Do you think more illegal immigrants should be deported, or fewer” “How do you feel about racial quotas” “Do you favor harsher sentences for repeat offenders” You can try to “move on”, but Republicans will make sure voters know what your position is!

@1butlerianjihad @JustAFamilyMan_ So what are they supposed to say when reporters ask (as they will) “Governor X, what is your position on trans athletes? (or other bullshit)” You can’t just say “Nice try! I’m not talking about that. I’d prefer to talk about billionaires.” You have to say *something*

@ATwinEarth @JustAFamilyMan_ That’s because most Americans view left/right through the lens of identity politics. Bring actual policy and people will not care about transgender sports or whatever other bullshit republicans want to stir up

@1butlerianjihad @JustAFamilyMan_ Is it possible that the independents voted Trump because they already consider us too far left. A big majority of people polled said Kamala was too far left; much bigger than the percentage who said the opposite about Trump

@ATwinEarth @JustAFamilyMan_ Ok so what’s your move? You should be less concerned about the left not voting and more concerned about the independents who voted Trump due to your ineffective corporate centrism. You may get those voters back for 2028 but will lose them again come 2030

@ATwinEarth @JustAFamilyMan_ ...so you're complaining that the left runs Democratic candidates but also simultaneously doesn't vote for Democrats? Did you think about whether this makes sense at all before posting?

@dmesg @StatisticUrban “Things that win votes in Ohio lose votes in Georgia” This is, to a very large extent, not true. States tend to swing all in the same direction. There is some wiggle room, but generally speaking, if you’re more popular here, you’re more popular there

@ATwinEarth @StatisticUrban But voters don't work like that. Things that win votes in Ohio lose votes in Georgia (for example). I think the base problem here is that the "closeness" of a Presidential election is not well-defined, so for anybody's pet definition some metric is best.

The only metric by which you can truly judge the scale/size of a US Presidential election victory is the margin in the tipping point state. This breaks many brains. People desperately want to use the popular vote, or the overall electoral vote. But no, none of this matters.

@Eithin5141951 @JustAFamilyMan_ Well then, go out and vote at random. Take a walk, get some fresh air, maybe have some ice cream afterwards; make a day of it!

@abysssalsss @TrueSlazac When a coin lands Heads-side up, it wasn’t even close to being Tails. In fact, it’s 180 degrees from Tails. That’s about as far as you can get!

@ATwinEarth @TrueSlazac Yea but the election wasn’t close at all, getting a model with close to even odds especially leaning to Harris is indicative of a poor model

@JustAFamilyMan_ The Marxist framing died years ago. A large majority of Americans A) own capital and B) are low-level employees. But they still keep pretending it’s 1932.

The Left struggles with the fact that class struggle is not what motivates most Americans to vote a certain way. This country is way too diverse for that be the biggest motivator. And until they make peace with that fact, the real discussions cannot be held.

49% more likely than what? You can't just write "49% more likely," which is a comparative stat, without explaining what the chatbots' performance is being compared to.

@supremeMilo @constans I mean you certainly are but I don't think even those countries are purposely destroying themselves on the whims of a cult leader with a long list of personality disorders and to impress the dumbest people in the country.
