“This applies to both sides” How very brave of you to call out the people who drive around with Harris trucks to Harris parties decked out in their Harris jackets and hats, trading AI generated pictures of sexy Harris.
You know, those things that are real and really happen.
Look dingbat, calling Trump and his ilk “weird” is not idolizing their opponents, it’s simply calling a spade a spade. If you’re too cowardly to stand up for what you believe in, don’t think trying to slip in a picture of a kitchen magnet is going to make it any better.
You could take this from the point of view that if people feel they are being attacked on their views they become defensive which makes a change in beliefs impossible.
Do you just want to smear shit on these people, or do you want to affect change?
How very brave of you to call out the people who drive around with Harris trucks to Harris parties decked out in their Harris jackets and hats, trading AI generated pictures of sexy Harris.
KHive really did this shit back in 2020, though.
Also, consider the case of Eric Adams, a man who was constantly self-promoting and a serial liar and grifter, who is now indicted on a litany of charges all stemming from his Style-Over-Substance administrative practice.

Kamala is also a Weird Politician. She talks weird. She believes weird things. She supports weird policies in order to appease a conflicting morass of regional interests. She’s awkward and insincere and frighteningly nationalistic. Because that’s what running for high office requires.
Practically everyone running for high office is. You have to be weird to think you should be President. It’s a weird thing to think. Delusional and megalomaniacal, given the powers of the office and the history of its occupants.
If you’re too cowardly to stand up for what you believe in
If people say what they sincerely believe, they risk saying things that are unpopular. You can’t run in a district of tens of millions of people (as a California AG or Ohio Senator must) and sound remotely unpopular. Your opposition will eat you alive.
So you end up with this phony caricature of a personality, making blith naive statements that only sound good superficially.
You come across as fake and weird because authentic and normal people won’t be popular enough to win an election.
I’m not sure if this is a “both sides” spiel or a “I hate politics because I’m really pretty conservative but know my actual positions are too unpopular to actually advocate in liberal America” take.
This is a strategy employed by politicians to juice participation in their cohort. Turning the campaign into a consumer brand is not unique to the Republican Party. It’s also not historically very successful.
my actual positions are too unpopular
Candidate One: “If you like ice cream, you can eat it! I’m not here to tell you what to do.”
Candidate Two: “Fresh vegetables are an important part of a diet. We need to make sure everyone has access to good nutrition, which is why the government should spend money to give people broccoli.”
Who has the better policy? Who has the more popular opinion?

I buy all my Harris nfts with my Soros bucks they put on my vaxxine microchip every month.
So easy to pay bills.
