If it's wrong to say all media is propaganda, then that must mean at least some media must be the good, correct, fact based media, right? Wonder why they don't just tell us what the good media is then, instead of spilling gallons of ink on how to spot the bad media.

Guess they're too embarrassed to say "anything from an official government source when the Dems are in power, and MSNBC when they aren't"

libs are so dumb they think true = cant be propaganda lmao

Gee I kind of think that children of his top aids are not his children/family, whom Biden vowed not to hire. I don't recall Biden vowing not to hire other people's children.

I don't know who these children are, but if they are children of people competent enough to be Biden's aids, then it is likely that the children have educations and experience that would qualify them for government work.

People here actively state that “electoralism doesn’t work” and they facetiously post poo poo like “Vote!” every time some city council fails to defund police like they promised, or somebody posts an article about Joe Manchin, but I voted locally/state-level in September and in November in 2020, and a bunch of stuff was uncontested.

There’s a lot of lovely 65 year old Dems and 35 year old GOP failsons out there running $500 campaigns for seats that nobody bothers contesting. Hell, even something like public school board means a potentially pivotal vote on a Sex Ed curriculum or trans-inclusive sports program.

I think right now, especially, is a moment for people on the left to really think about not voting (yet), or getting people to the polls, but helping successfully launch as many progressive political careers as possible.

This can have the sort of limited effect you describe, but that doesn't really change the fact that electoralism still doesn't work if your goal is to actually create a decent society and create material change for people.

So it can be a worthwhile thing while also not having any role in actually accomplishing the most meaningful left-wing goals. Which I think is an important distinction, because people have a tendency to view any positive thing as being part of a process towards greater positive things.

How it started

quote:

WOODBRIDGE, Va. — National Democratic groups are spending unprecedented sums in the race for control of Virginia’s state legislature — the first test in a yearlong campaign to maximize the party’s influence in the states before the next round of redistricting begins in 2021.

How its going

quote:

The saga of Virginia's redistricting commission, however, has proved to be the most controversial. National Democrats poured upwards of $10 million into the state in the 2019 elections and painted the capture of the state legislature as crucial to the party's redistricting fate. They took both chambers, securing total control in Richmond under Democratic Gov. Ralph Northam.

Democratic legislative candidates campaigned on a pledge to back an existing amendment that would create a redistricting commission. But when it came time to vote on it, they balked.

The proposed 16-person commission includes eight state lawmakers, four from each party. At least two Republican legislators must approve a map — giving the GOP de facto veto power — and if the commission deadlocks, the Republican-leaning state Supreme Court steps in.

Most Democrats in the House of Delegates voted against placing the amendment on the ballot. But nine defected and voted with Republicans to pass it, and voters overwhelmingly approved it in November.

"We just don't seem to have the guts to just go out and go play politics the way Republicans do," said Ben Tribbett, a Virginia-based Democratic operative.

The (good?) news is that if recent demographic trends and immigration rates hold, then there will be a glut of houses in about 25-30 years. So, if you're waiting for a bargain on a house, then check back around 2045.
About 50% of millennials currently own their own homes. It will probably go up a little bit more as the younger half ages up, but millennials are currently about 20% behind the previous generations in homeownership rates.

After the dem clownshow from 2018-2022 proved that if you are mad enough you can just impeach the president once a week with a simple majority vote the GOP is really eager to get their turn at the wheel. Biden will probably go down as the most impeached president at 3-4 times until Trump loses the house in 2026 and the Dems run up his high score with a few more impeachments.
