        Nah. Gig economy. Know anyone who can keep their shit down to one job these days?

        It’s probably not, I think a lot of tankies are true believers (nobody pays for sponsored content in pillow talk. Yet. Yes ive made bad decisions.) but it could be.

      Hey, that’s not fair - many of them are paid by the RNC to turn off left leaning voters.

      No they do it for free. These aren’t paid assets they’re angsty disaffected teens.

        Some are useful idiots, the core is paid shills. I’d be surprised if they’re not also starting to use LLMs.

          If they don’t get talking points directly from a trollfarm, someone influential over there watches a lot of Russian propaganda.

          On the other hand, they do love yelling at libs to stop supporting the Gaza genocide, so I like them until they also start bitching about fighting a fascist invasion.

          Pick your goddamn lane

            They want to amplify the atrocities Israel is committing in Gaza because it increases the probability Trump gets elected, which would be a huge win for the Kremlin.

            I’d guess there’s backroom deal making with Iran as well given the political dynamics there.

              that increases the probability trump gets elected

                That would be the fault of the idiots who’d rather see the literal authoritarian mad man come to power again than vote for Biden.

                The suffering in Gaza has to stop but not voting Biden will have the opposite effect.

                  Could’ve run anyone other than biden. Could have offered us something, anything, that we actually want.

                  Biden could have proven he deserved two hours of my time in the past four years. Literally all he has to do, and theres still time, is “blockade against Cuba over. Blockade against Israel begin. All humanitarian aid must go through Palestine, Palestinian authorities must approve every shipment at the border, get right to loot at leisure”

                  Hell, they could even offer some of the accelerationist/unserious trump votes an actually good option to fucking engage them and take fascism off the table. They could do that. They don’t.

                  And when they do win with a good candidate, they still roll over and let the fascist have the seat (last time they ran a good candidate was 2000), so even if I did like someone and want to vote for them, if I see a D by their name, I know even if they win, they’ll never take office.

                  If you offer me a trolley problem, and I ask “why the fuck do you keep tying people to the other track, dude? What the fuck!?” And then after the fifth or six time just stop, I just stop signing off on your murders and step off the murder trolley, I’m not the monster here. … Actually, this is literally a description of a scene in ‘the good place’, and it’s a literal demon doing it to a terminally indecisive moral philosophy professor. Because its comically evil. Literally its a comedy and the audience is supposed to laugh at the absurdity of how pointlessly evil it is, and its the perfect metaphor for the democratic party.
