I feel like we’ve been deserted .. because we have! Where the hell is everybody? Dems leaders need to learn how to fight, resist, & support the right people - seriously doubt I’ll remain a Dem
You'd better be quick chartering another political party that will break our Duopolistic template. Rules of the game have been set. Any new parties will have to prove they've been built for Pay2Play Self-Serve. Private Interest is now the constituency as it has always been the currency for campaigning with the Oligarchs and Plutocrats. Days of community roots and Public Interest admin\governance running on big base of small contributors seems so quaint in rear-view mirror...(if it was ever true at all...I may be letting early Depression Era Hollywood director\screenwriters like Preston Sturges movies confuse my historical senses on U.S. Political E-CON 101).
Here: Give a listen to the voices that are needed to bring down this warping of those elegantly simple phrases that wound up stitching US all together in our formative union...
And who's going to send him?!? We elected/pulled him off the golf course and into the white house. He didn't force his way there. We're stuck with him. Fact
The effects of AI are wildly misunderstood. Yes, there have been and continue to be amazing advancements. But if you are aware of how the world works at all, it is not true that highly intelligent people have the most power wealth or influence. If intelligent humans don't have the most power and influence already, what makes people think that intelligent computers will fix our problems either?
We live in a world where someone with a Trump level IQ wins the presidency of the most powerful nation on earth, and yet all these tech people are trying to talk up superintelligence. If anything the modern world has shown us that intelligence and insight is not an antidote to bullies and propagandists. If we want the world to be a nice place we have to be proactive about people with power and hold them accountable. Intelligence is not a magic cure, or even the most influential thing the way people make it out to be.
Check Krystal's Wiki page and Kyle's own Wiki dossier. She already tried running in her home state of Virginia. She's gotta scare the bejesus outta big money national DNC Elites who never allowed real reformer Elizabeth Warren to seriously challenge the career patsy in Biden during each DEM-o primary Warren threw in her hat to run.
Listen to their podcasts (it takes a span of attention, but like Noam Chomsky talking politics and media crit, no specialized higher ed is required to learn much and draw you into the world of policymaking IN THE PUBLIC INTEREST NOT THE PRIVATE PARTY BACKER INTERESTS).
Hope these 2 don't fall into the TV demagoguery racket and keep trying to work within the political system, even knowing full well that national DNC Elite will try to cut em down in primaries for even offices down at the Dog Catcher level......

As Bernie Sanders says, "There should be NO billionaires!" Their very existence undermines our democracy. ---- First step: Tax ALL wealth at 100% over $500 million, and all income at 90% over $10 million per year.
One more thing. I'm a "boomer" old enough to remember when "Reagan was a fascist" in 1984. Back then it was pushed by old leftists, now it was pushed by the Democratic Party leaders themselves. I didn't buy it then, don't buy it now.
Trump or whomever might be a "fascist" in their own minds, but the conditions for an actual fascist dictatorship don't exist in the USA. But maybe they will after Trump is done with it! Perhaps "that's the plan"!
The Dems will never adopt the "Jail the Billionaire Oligarchs" populist line. That's their donors!
BTW I am for the death penalty for Billionaire Oligarchs who are convicted of high crimes. They need to have the Fear of God put into them, full stop.
Great to see the collaboration here… Mike Figueredo is now on my go to list for me in my recent youtube consumption and, of course, Secular Talk/Krystal Kyle and Friends/Breaking Points. I was happy to see that he’s connected with you guys. I also listen to David Doel’s channel. Who else from New Media puts out content the same moral compass as these guys?
Does anyone know if the SCOTUS ruling saying that Trump can do anything as long as its an "official act," can be reversed? Otherwise - we're screwed as a country. Not just with Trump, but any future Presidents can go unchecked.
I just found Secular Talk and subscribed and shared. I was very impressed with Kyle and particularly appreciated the episode on voter suppression. However now I've discovered you endorsed Jill Stein in 2024. How can you put yourselves out there as anti-Trump when Stein's candidacy seduced some voters into the delusional thinking that voting for her would be a stand against this fascism? Why are we now facing fascism? The answer is voter suppression AND foolish people who did not vote at all or who actually believed that either Klein or Trump would be good for us. So disappointed in you!

It's time for Trump to go golfing and leave us alone.
And who's going to send him?!? We elected/pulled him off the golf course and into the white house. He didn't force his way there. We're stuck with him. Fact

Kyle and/or Krystal (again) should consider running for office

Ironic plot twist. It turns out democracy dies in broad daylight…with flashing signs…and parades with everyone watching. Darkness my ass.

Maybe the Democrats WANT the 2004 election to look like a "FDR landslide", despite the facts.
