Time for me to go. I have actively avoided engaging in any exchanges about politics for a while now. I made the mistake of dipping a toe back into that pool this afternoon and I can literally feel my blood pressure going up. Not doing this.

Time to dance! I'll be back when I'm back...

Weird how they seem to think their candidates never have to earn votes from y'all the way they constantly shriek that Kamala Harris didn't earn theirs. Huh. I'm sure the naked hypocrisy is unintentional and once it's brought to their attention, they'll modify their behavior accordingly.

I'm still me. Ya know, in case anyone was wondering just how far this whole Alysson 2.0 thing was gonna go. I may not do this as much, but when they invade my goddamn mentions with their leftist shit-swizzlery on a post from 15 MOTHERFUCKING MONTHS AGO... the claws are coming out.

I'm all for having a guy who stared at an SS Totenkopf in the mirror every morning while brushing his teeth being threatened with having his life ripped apart for trying to run for a Senate seat as a Democrat.

Like... "NO FUCKING NAZIS" is a bar I'm absolutely fine with. I'm a fucking radical.

Look, a few weeks after I moved to Jacksonville, there was a hurricane in the forecast. I knew we'd lose power. Losing power there meant no water. I went a hotel. I'm not even joking. I went back 3 days later and my niece said, "I should have gone with you." Me: "Told ya."

Oh... so, you're just sealioning idiot with reading comprehension problems. That tracks.

Are you really gonna leave this time? Because this is the third or fourth time you've tried to storm off in a huff, but you can't seem to actually go.

I've heard it ALL before, sparky.

You're in my mentions in the replies on a thread I wrote in January of 2025, ya fragile fuck. I didn't invite you here. I didn't initiate this "conversation" you thought you wanted to have. That was all you, petal. Make better choices.

You didn't get a better understanding, peaches. You got a skewed one. There's a difference. And that's the problem.

The world is literally burning down around you and you're sitting here wanting to talk about shaking the fucking Etch A Sketch of the global economic model—WHICH WOULD RESULT IN LITERAL HOMICIDAL ANARCHY—because you're fucking bored & mad at Democrats because... reasons. I don't take you seriously.

No, I don't wanna have a conversation about it, because it's a bullshit narrative that can't exist this global economic reality. It can't happen, no matter how much you want it to or I want it to or Bernie wants it to or Hillary wants it to... it just ain't gonna. We don't have time for fuckery.

No. I'm not. I've been studying y'all for over a decade. This is what I do. I know what led you to where you are. I know where this conversation will end. That's why I don't do this anymore. It's an absolute waste of fucking time, because you've basically joined a cult.

You've been promised unicorns too long, buddy. You've bought the idea not only that they exist, but that the government owes you one. What's possible is what can be accomplished politically. And what can be accomplished politically is limited by how many of you keep falling for the propaganda.

It doesn't matter how Bernie votes. It matters how he has made an career out of pounding on a lectern telling angry, desperate people they'd all have unicorns, if only the Democrats wanted them to have them. He never has the same level of smoke for Republicans. That's been by design for decades.

We never really did. I've been on this ride with too many of y'all over the past decade. You deny reality because it undermines your chosen narrative. And when that's proven beyond reasonable doubt, the goalposts move. It's an established pattern with so-called "progressives" who hate progress.

The subtext of your position is louder than your text. You should reflect on that.

Know why left & right both hate the Clintons in equal measure? They know what the fuck they're talking about. And they have the resumes to prove it. None of the people you champion have never done fuck all to improve a single American life. They just like to yell & make you mad for attention.

By the way, we'd very likely have something akin to M4A by now, or at least a viable public option, if the people you've chosen to put on a political pedestal hadn't harpooned the Health Security Act back in 1993. Why? Bernie led the charge. Why? It wasn't his bill. And Hillary humiliated him.

You're parroting the populist narrative coming from feckless leftists who would rather see the country burn, rather than see it succeed by employing Democratic economic strategies that have been historically very effective at growing America's economy & GDP.

Again, you're being played.

You're trying to make an argument that economics is nothing but smoke & mirrors used to keep us all confused & stupid... and you're framing it in economic terms, while basically trying to claim economics isn't even a real thing. You have just enough information to have drawn the wrong conclusions.

Everything has to be paid for, somehow. See, the problem here is people have been promised glitter-shitting unicorns by feckless demagogues who have never accomplished a goddamn thing, other than thumping a populist drum and giving angry people someone to "blame" while increasing their net worth.

Yeah, so... ya know how sometimes when you're on a boat all day, you get off the boat and, even though you're on stable ground, it sometimes feels like you're still on that boat?

Turns out that phenomenon applies to vibration boards, too. I should prolly cool it with this thing for a bit. 🤣

That's exactly why I don't mind doing it when I'm feeling lazy. Men don't *have* to stop. They choose to. For all I know, it's the only time that men felt useful those day... before going to home to shrieking wives and shitty kids. And I didn't have to change a flat tire. Everybody wins.

They also literally don't want to know, because that way if something happens, they can just act like there's no way they ever could have known. It's how they preemptively let themselves off the hook for their shitty parenting and the consequences for it, which are absorbed by their kids & society.

Aww... thank you. You're sweet. I'm good. I promise. I wouldn't lie to y'all. I never have. I'm not gonna start now.

And they'd do it over & over again, because their parents were both too stupid to figure out what they were doing & too shitty at being parents to have done what was necessary to modify that problematic behavior that will become a pattern their entire lives. Society will suffer for their failures.

They're all Gavin Newsom and Jake Tapper.
