The left needs to mind nuance and reason and context less, and start slinging facts in soundbytes the way the right is always slinging dogwhistles and lies.

Keep your messaging simple:

“Trump fired everyone in charge of airplane safety, and a week later planes started crashing into each other.”

That’s it. That’s the messaging. Don’t get bogged down disputing Trump’s false claims. Just blame him, in short and repeatable sentences.

NEW SERENE ART JUST DROPPED, @ smokeydraws ON FA IS TO THANK FOR THIS WONDERFUL ART OF HER THAT I COMMISSIONED

[wcatradio]

In this episode of Author to Author, Dr. Cynthia Toolin-Wilson interviews Dr. Ronda Chervin on her book 77 Soundbytes of Love (June 7, 2023) This book is an anthology of soundbytes — 77 to be exact — drawn from almost one hundred philosophical works of Ronda Chervin written over the past half century. Why 77? It’s a number signifying the triumph of the spirit over matter and the personal freedom to pursue things of interest. That’s the goal for our readers – to set their souls free to partake in a spiritual journey to a more authentic self. Readers will engage a soundbyte a day, journaling as they go, trying to live by the spiritual truth expressed over the course of their time with it before advancing to the next soundbyte. For the interactive blog, see 77 Soundbytes of Love | En Route Books and Media

The left needs to mind nuance and reason and context less, and start slinging facts in soundbytes the way the right is always slinging dogwhistles and lies. Kinda like this paragraph

Gonna start responding to every conservative that's shitting on Kendrick's halftime show with "oh so you're pro-groomer, you're with the groomers now, yeah?"

I know it's bad faith, but they've acted in bad faith the past 15 years and they've gotten the presidency, both chambers of Congress, and a stacked scotus. The left needs to be more petty.

Since I stopped being a fan of Taylor, I have noticed just how many legends of music just don't believe in her artistry the way some people would have you believe. Stevie Nicks and Paul McCartney are the two that have actually given her something that could be considered praise, but that's standard for them with most modern artists.

i've been going through the alola anime for the past few weeks and i got to this part i can only really describe as "fnaf jumpscare" that suddenly plays halfway through this episode that took me by such surprise i nearly pissed myself laughing

I like to say that the problem is issues have context and nuance but people like propaganda because it comes in digestible soundbytes

(Well, I say "I like to say", but this is the first time I've managed to phrase it this succintly)

(Like a soundbyte)

OP's got a great point with their name an enemy thing and the problem with that is that the genuine enemies, the ones Bernie and AOC and Liz are naming instead of the scapegoat enemies Donald and Elon are naming, are people the Democratic leadership are as beholden to as the Republican leadership are

Honestly? I think this is apart of the appeal of Bernie and AOC outside the Democratic base (which despite what people want to say is not the left, but centrist liberal capitalists, the left is a minority even within the Democratic party)

Bernie and AOC is willing to name an enemy, to look at people and tell them, "I know you are hurting, I see it, and it's that guy's fault," except instead of demonizing trans people, poc, and immigrants, it's (imo rightfully) pointing to billionaires, shareholder capitalism, and bigots as what is causing all of us harm.

its really weird to have original and remastered versions of songs from Everything Is A Lot in my liked songs. coz sometimes i'll hear, like, Chemical Overreaction and i miss the fear and loathing quote! and there's another song (it might also be Chemical Overreaction) with the iasip clip.

also i miss the Liar, Liar byte from Thermodynamic Lawyer
