POG Politics Thread Version 3
Come on in! Since Dustin is taking his ball and going home, it's time to start a new politics thread.
polymarket people are betting on cuomo to beat mamdani
nothing human makes it out of the near future.
-nick land
only position is no sliwa and some adams yes that i fat fingered while trying to get some no
i think mamdani will win but cuomo far from drawing dead - which is how it's currently priced so i'm staying out of it until we get closer to landing
How you say, "bloodbath?"
The president says ... that his own name not being on the ballot was "the biggest factor".
Rename the Republican Party the "Trump" Party. Problem solved!
What was it Neitzsche said? Man is a rope stretched across an Abyss?
The near fixed point of the Abyss has crumbled. It is time to reach for the Other Side.
feels like both sides have crumbled to me :(
I'm still reaching, but there's nothing there
I wish I could just like outback and fascism.... like some people itt
Title of my next book, Outback and Fascism: How a Bloomin' Onion Leads to a Bloody Holocaust
Book after that is all Holocaust humor, tentatively titled At My Auschwitz End
I was pleased with how Mamdani in his vicotry speech was trying to unite the other side with a bunch of Nazi salutes.
They should give Mamdami a special out-of-band Nobel Peace Prize just for The Meltdown it will cause
have elections mattered much in USA? or in the world?
was Hitler elected? or did he just take power? I think he was elected, and that's a pretty clear example of an election that mattered.
I can't really think of one in USA. maybe 2000 because it might have prevented decades of war BUT bush lost that election! lmao... so I don't think you can count that one. lol at democracy in usa
but like Obama or Romney was meaningless. Clinton or Bush meaningless... Maybe Carter or Reagan in 1980. but I doubt it. Carter was a war criminal.
idk maybe im mostly wrong. the people who can't eat today cuz of trump's shutdown might say Kamala/trump was a big election that mattered. but otoh the people starving in Palestine would be starving either way. musk might have 400 billion instead of 600 billion or whatever. our climate might collapse in 2060 instead of 2070
Brexit
My favorite part in that interview is her response "I did a jean ad"
sounds like I missed something living under my rock. oh well
aren't we all enemies of the state? I mean except for our Nazi friend :p
If Trump is Hitler, then who is Mussolini? Churchill? Stalin? FDR?
