Something liberals don’t understand. Billboards with text like, “if you can vote for this post on reddit, you can vote in nov” dont work. If your candidate is weak and all the energy around them is centered around voting out the other guy, it’s not gonna go well for you. You can’t finger wag your way into popular support.

    positive visions are for extremists. If you are for anything in this world, you are a naive idealist.
    The only pragmatic way forward is a negative vision of being against that which is bad. No, we're not even trying to be good. No, we don't want to really change anything, we're just here to stake our claim of being less bad. That has worked out just fine before

    Modern Liberalism is just congratulating yourself for not being a chud, and the smug sense of superiority you get from being "better" than other people.

    They just clearly don't care at all about anything beyond that. They don't want to win, really.

    It's like watching a sports team that congratulates itself for having fewer fouls.

    They don't care about you voting. They care about feeling self-righteous.
