    Gotta love how they managed to create a term to delegitimize popular policy and now basically throw it at anything that wasn't devised by ivy league ghouls

      the OG populists were pretty good for crackers. proto-socialist farmers that started a little bit of shit before marx really got going.

      If trump were president we'd be doing the exact same thing as far as supporting Isreal but every single lib would have the Palestinian flag in their profile as a reflexive action instead of lecturing people about how what Isreal is doing isn't technically a genocide because they're accidently killing 80% civilians.

    I’m not voting for either of these assholes. The message is pretty damn clear, if the dems want to win so badly give people something to vote for. I hate this goddamn country.

      Yup my baseline for voting for somebody is "won't continue to do a genocide"

      If that is an unreasonable expectation that's the dems problem not mine.

    I'm seeing more and more voices who just fucking LOVE genocide and can't WAIT to see how many more genocides Biden does. I'm hearing rumors that he's already got 2 more planned for his next term, so be sure and turn out the vote for GenoBiden

    I'm more of a jank populist. Dems are allergic to doing any popular policy? So are they crank unpopulists?

    Beyond the inherent danger in this strategy, it's also deeply flawed.

    motherfucker writes like chatgpt training data

      It kind of makes sense now, I had the causation backwards. It's not that people write like chatgpt, it's that so much of the web's content was written this way when chatgpt was trained.

    ah, the old "actually not voting is voting" thing this is fun to do this all over again

    This is just unncessarily verbose horseshoe theory because the underlying critcism is that everybody against the status quo is basically the same

    The majority not voting in 2024 aren't going to say shit on social media and continue on with their lives, but the left will get all the blame.

    Literally a meme

    Stancil joined Twitter in June of 2009, an early user. Throughout the 2010s and 2020s, he posted frequently about policy topics. In the fall of 2023, as the vibescession discourse took off, Stancil became involved in an increasingly intricate series of beefs. It started with him espousing the vibecession, amid pushback from leftists who believed that he was endorsing the status quo. The dispute then escalated into high profile confrontations with presidential candidate Marianne Williamson (seen below left) and pundit Nate Silver (seen below right). In particular, Stancil's dispute with Silver attracted attention and headlines, including retweets from figures like New York Times columnist Ross Douthat.

      vibescession

      Is that a word privileged lanyard types use to claim that the economy is actually great, the poors are just dumb and whiny?

        Yes. It's the "Aktuly Big Number Go Up, but Trump is winning because the vibes are literally just off".

        Just doing the standard neoliberal gaslighting while poverty climbs and the wealth disparity grows ever wider.

    I don’t not believe the tweet, Trump being the president made libs be more active and question some stuff, but it’s wrong it the sense that I’m not going to personally vote for Trump, I’ve just accepted that he’s most likely going to be the next president. It’s not my fault, I just asked the Dems to not do genocide.

    It's me, I'm cranking populism out of my girl dick every day. There's always so much semi-crispy populism coating my socks that my mom won't do my laundry anymore since everything clumps up into one big ball

        You're well-cum! It took a lot to birth a 7 foot tall sack of shit out my urethra but it was worth the pain (and pleasure 😏).
