2026 American Mid-Terms

RE: 2026 American Mid-Terms
I think people's contributions to the politics of a civic state should be appreciated, regardless of whether that's voting in elections, or simply advocating for change by criticizing the status quo.

If you don't vote, then you don't get to complain about the outcome.

I said I was self-debating on the choice. As for complaining, I did my bit in 2024 and got rewarded with a daily hellscape that I only avoid thanks to heavy self-censorship and curated algorithms.

I will very likely vote for how little it will mean.

Remember in The Lion King how Scar told the hyenas that he would make their lives better if they helped him and when their lives didn’t get better he blamed them for it and then they killed and ate him?

Do with this story what you will.

Wow, Republicans even lost Texas tonight.
Oh well, I guess it's time for those forced sex change operations on the massive scale, hopefully inside abortion clinics.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Looking at Twitter, it seems the, "fuck your feelings" crowd is having a lot of feelings right now.

Just realised this is a Thump thread.

He would have loved tonight's results!

Just hung the flag back up.

Waiting now for Trump to blow an artery or to simply quit.

There’s some thinking that he may resign once your new Congress is sworn in and have Vance pardon him, à la Nixon/Ford.

I’m pretty skeptical about that - Trump doesn’t have it in him to simply walk away.
