@wjmaggos The problem is that the party has been breaking their own rules to influence primary results in some ways. In other ways, party rules are written to influence the outcome.

@wjmaggos Ranked Choice Voting would help in terms of making it easier for third parties, somewhat compensating for bad choices from the major parties. We also need multirepresentative legislative districts to enable more views to be represented.

NFC player of the week in his first start since winning the 2023 National Championship and now the birth of his son. Has anyone had a more awesome week than JJ McCarthy?https://www.si.com/nfl/vikings/news/j-j-mccarthy-missing-vikings-practice-thursday-attend-birth-of-his-son

Not sure what took so long but Bernie Sanders is the first Senator to say Israel is committing genocide in Gaza. https://aje.io/ftb3pj

Why I think Zuckerberg is even worse than Musk: Yesterday I got a message on Threads that my account is locked and I had to appeal, which consisted of proving I'm me. I was never given the reason for locking my account. After they approved my appeal I found this message on multiple accounts on my timeline: "ππ©πͺπ΄ πΆπ΄π¦π³ πͺπ΄ π΄πΆπ΄π±π¦π€π΅π¦π₯ π°π§ π£π¦πͺπ―π¨ π±π’π³π΅ π°π§ π’ π΅π¦π³π³π°π³πͺπ΄π΅ π°π³π¨π’π―πͺπ»π’π΅πͺπ°π― π€π’πππ¦π₯ ππ―π΅πͺπ§π’. πππ¦π’π΄π¦ π³π¦π±π°π³π΅ π’π―πΊ π΄πΆπ΄π±πͺπ€πͺπ°πΆπ΄ π£π¦π©π’π·πͺπ°π³."

Annual Covid vaccines reduced ER visits by 29%, hospitalizations by 39% & death by 64%. Benefits last up to 6 months. The vaccine is valuable, but deaths and disease could be far lower if both Biden & Trump hadn't opposed a more comprehensive approach. #COVID #vaccines https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/new-study-finds-annual-covid-vaccines-protect-people-against-severe-disease/

It's ridiculous to see so many posts from centrists falsely claiming that leftists are responsible Trump winning. Centrists are responsible for Trump winning in both 2016 & 2024. When centrists did win in 2020 they moved far right & were barely distinguishable from Republicans

Democrats usually lose when they move to the right but they keep doing it. Perhaps it is more about establishment Democrats being conservatives, or about selling out to donors, than it is about looking for a winning strategy. https://prospect.org/politics/centrist-democrats-pivot-right-kamala-harris/

Tomorrow the protest will be No Kings. By the midterms Democratic consultants will have the party moving to the right and their message will be moderated to Not Too Many Kings. If they win in 2028 the message will be Only Democratic Kings as they continue the erosion of democracy.

Israel continues to bomb and they can no longer claim it is about hostages. Israeli genocide was never about the hostages.

The solution to the budget impasse is obvious. Both parties should agree on Medicare for All. Republicans can say they ended Obamacare along with the subsidies & Democrats can take credit for actually giving us healthcare coverage. Unfortunately neither duopoly party will do this.

@wjmaggos Not a complete solution but that would be a big improvement considering that the older people get, the more unaffordable ACA plans are.

Vaccine misinformation from both RFK Jr type anti-vaxxers & Biden Democrats increase vaccine hesitancy and disease. Government must respect science, not distort it to promote personal agendas. Lies to support a Vax-and-Relax strategy are as dangerous as anti-vaxxer lies.#vaccines #antivaxxers

@72mz Biden put out massive misinformation to support his vaccine only policy as he eliminated most other Covid precautions. Plus his misinformation led to greater distrust of vaccines.

Both parties have been supporting endless wars, genocide, authoritarianism & dismantling public health. We will not get out of this mess until more people realize the problem is the duopoly and not just the other political party.

Smelling farts might help protect against Alzheimerβs. If this holds up, I'm imagining how Pharma might try to market this. https://share.google/C34XFE1VM3W1nAxaN

@Herman_Hetherington The article is very weak (and I probably should have noted that in the post) but I was having more fun in thinking of what if the article title was supported and thinking about how it would be commercialized.

DNC decided not to release their report on what went wrong in 2024. Perhaps this means it is an honest report and Democratic leaders would rather lose than make the necessary reforms. More people need to vote for alternatives to the duopoly parties. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/12/18/us/politics/dnc-2024-autopsy-democrats-ken-martin.html?unlocked_article_code=1.9k8.egd0.cnW9XE_wzkQi&smid=nytcore-android-share
