I’m ambivalent about Biden being the general election candidate, but how is certifying primary results “aim to push”?

Breaking News: The DNC aims to push President Biden toward the nomination next week, even as Democrats remain split over his candidacy.

D.N.C. Aims to Push Biden Toward Nomination Next Week, Despite Doubtswww.nytimes.com Leaders of the Democratic National Committee are aiming for a process that would formalize the nomination by the end of July, even as Democrats remain fiercely split over his candidacy.

I read this book about how labeling certain groups as non-humans lead to genocide and this is exactly the kind of stuff in the book.

“We will hold investigations to identify the neo-cultural Marxists in seats of power all across Washington,” Posobiec said. “We don’t negotiate with un-humans. Because that’s the stakes of this battle: humanity versus un-humanity.” inthesetimes.com/article/nati...

Onward, Christian Soldiers—To War!inthesetimes.com At this year’s National Conservatism Conference, a right-wing army prepares to rise.

Obama’s biggest failure was failing to recognize that the right wing movement has left the confines of democratic norms. He gravely underestimated the threat posed by the right.

80% of generic business jobs create no value to the society and this proportion gets higher as you go up the position.

What this article leaves out is that if you hand your unlocked phone to a police officer, they can legally search it. Unless companies develop a method that allows you to show officers insurance cards and driver license without unlocking the rest of your phone, don't. www.zdnet.com/article/digi...

This was possible only because non-fascists made the strategic choice to coalesce behind the most viable candidate in each district, often dropping out to increase the odds of defeating fascists. Voters also made tactical choice to vote for the most viable non-fascist/ in their districts.

Keeping Trump out of the White House isn’t the only thing that needs doing and it isn’t enough to solve all problems facing the country & world but if it isn’t done then all those problems get exponentially worse in ways I don’t even know how to express and it scares me when people pretend otherwise

“If they really want to stop authoritarianism, why don’t they pass a law that prevents authoritarianism?”

Ross Douthat is out there arguing dems should replace Biden with Joe Manchin. You have to admire his ability to always come up with the worst takes.

There’s like 6 opinion articles about Biden just published today.

If you are undecided between two people who have held the office they’re running for in the past 7 years, you shouldn’t be allowed to make any decisions.

This is a salient point. I don’t think there’s a situation where Biden drops out and Harris is not the nominee.
