Business press is whining, ohhh China's EVs are too cheap! It's bad for US EV makers!

Isn't this what capitalism is supposed to be? Someone makes a better, cheaper thing, the market rewards them.

Also, Elon has been saying for 20 years he's going to bring an affordable EV to market. What's he done? The goddamn cybertruck.

People want a regular ass car that runs on ⚡ and isn't worse or more expensive than a gas car. If they have to get it from China, that's the US's failing

People don't have the money or the patience for this shit. Just make the electric equivalent of a boring-ass Toyota Corolla and make sure it doesn't cost 55 grand

somehow I never saw that video of Bjork rinsing that photographer. I was NOT expecting it to look like that. She took her apart like a television set

@ray I'm generally against hitting photographers as I have worked as one, but if Bjork kicks your ass, you did something

was watching Stop Making Sense, which I've never seen before, and Jonathan "silence of the lambs" Demme directed it? What??

I just now realized Psychic (in Pokemon) is weak against Ghost, Bug and Dark because those are COMMON FEARS

Radlibs are exhausting

I don't even use the term often, but sometimes you find a textbook example

I try to help them see, but really I should just ask for a list of the fascist movements that were stopped by voting

CNN is consistently one of the most bloodthirsty media outlets, for Israel in particular. All their biggest names are huge zionists, often serving on the boards of pro-israel groups.

But they've been doing some actual honest reporting (albeit some of it was 4 months late, but still). By the incredibly low bar of the US media, they have "turned"

LBJ speedrun continues. The DNC will be "semi online" due to protest fears

Is this a good sign, when your candidate, who is perceived as a weak, absentee leader, actively hides from the people who are supposed to be enthused about him?

I was listening to a thing about the Wahabists who seized the Grand Mosque for about 2 weeks. They had a guy who they thought was the Mahdi, but he denied it, which made them say "ah, only the Mahdi would deny being the Mahdi. This just proves it." The poor guy ended up getting blasted.

It's not a thing exclusive to Islam anyway. Jesus says he's not the Messiah several times. I like it. It's kinda humanizing

"US democracy is going to collapse" don't threaten me with a good time. I can't wait until this shit is over, man

just hand the keys to whatever dead-eyed car salesman or bloodless McKinsey creep is next in line and leave us alone. This shit just grinds endlessly on with or without our input

maybe if we ended the farce of "US democracy," people would stop being distracted by it and we could finally talk about how we could build a world it's actually possible to live comfortably in

how many times have you tried to talk about things that matter to you: wages, healthcare, education, climate, only to be told we can't talk about that right now bc "our candidate" doesn't agree or "can't" do anything about it, so mentioning it is bad for The Election (which is the most important thing, above all other considerations)

this awful machine that mindlessly, brutally, efficiently guarantees we can't even ask for changes that would improve our lives, never mind attain and keep them? You're telling me it's going away? Shit, what will we do?!

"if we don't have democracy, we will descend into mob violence and a police state. Basic functions of government will be no more. Infrastructure will fall apart"

Antony Blinken claims that Hamas is blocking a ceasefire in Gaza, but it is Israel which has vowed to invade Rafah regardless of an agreement and is absolutely unwilling to declare an end to its genocidal operation.

@mondoweiss @palestine @israel you could make this same argument about literally any negotiation, regardless of how lopsided. "Well they're holding it up by not giving us everything we ask for and a bunch of stuff that's not even part of the negotiation"
