I don't follow the AI bubble trend at all

I was responding to you finally noticing how pervasive it is getting.

It was relevant to your noticing how prevalent it is getting.

A little Critical Thinking will tell you that this is either technically impossible, unbelievably expensive, or both. Probably both.

However, I encourage Sociopathic Oligarchs to dump as much of their money into it as possible.

I just saw a TV commercial for a special series the local news is doing on traffic issues, and they used several quick background graphics, and at least one quick film clip that were obviously AI-generated.

You can argue over the appropriateness of AI, but most people would agree that it doesn't belong anywhere near a news broadcast. If you don't have footage, it is highly unethical to create footage to juice up your news reports.

I'm not saying that people don't vote split tickets. Of course they do. I'm an Unaffiliated Independent, I voted split tickets for years, until the Republican Party decided to officially become the party of Treason & Corruption.

I'm not talking about that. I'm talking about voting a straight Democratic ticket, with TRUMP at the top. Not some random Republican for dogcatcher - Trump. The idea that strong Democrats could vote an entire straight ticket, but still vote for Trump is ludicrous.

You claim to be a split ticket voter for governor, but were you a split ticket voter for Trump? Do you know anybody up there in split-ticket land that were? Have you even HEARD of such a person?

I'm sure there are few, but they are as rare as white squirrels. There certainly weren't millions of them, and the real problem is that BOTH parties leaped on the "fair & square" bullshit almost as soon as the polls closed. There were no studies, no investigations, etc. into what was certainly the crookedest election in America history. They didn't even demand it, only to be turned down by the controlling MAGAs. They just decided to cooperate with the psychopathic MAGAs and pretend it didn't happen. The Democrats themselves, the injured party, seemed to jump to that conclusion faster and harder than even the Republicans. The Dems were clearly too cowardly to take on that fight, so they just surrendered the American people to the treasonous Nazis pedophiles.

It is because of things like this that the American people have lost ALL confidence in the Democratic party. The MAGAs are excited by that, and in their limited lack & white view of the world, they think it means that the American people love MAGA instead. They are too intellectually limited to understand that it is possible for the American people to despise BOTH parties for their betrayals.

What we want is a hard reset, and a new try at a new government, one that is truly "Of the People, For the People, and By the People," and NOT the Sociopathic Oligarchs. They caused this mess, and they're going to pay for it.

You don't have to flip a lot of votes to steal an election, just the right number, in the right places. That's how you end up with Trump at the top of an otherwise straight Democratic ticket. Both Dems and Republicans claim there were millions of them, and they were all concentrated in the swing states, for some unexplained reason.

And yet, I've never met one of those split ticket voters, nor have I ever seen one on TV. Have you?

Split tickets in the Swing States. That's according to both parties, who agree that the one election that was necessary to keep Trump out of prison was the only thing in his entire life that he DIDN'T cheat on, and the election was "Fair & Square."

That's a good idea, you get right on that, Wheels.

For the next year, Progressives are dealing from a position of strength, and the Democrats, and especially the MAGAs, are in the defensive position.

The Establishment Dems will pretend they are all for it, but we know the real truth, and they will be doing everything they can to foil any Progressive gains.

MAGA has a choice - either ease up and get in step with where the CITIZENS of this country are going, or crack down hard on this budding Resistance.

They are as fucking stupid as stupid gets, so they will definitely choose #2. For the next year, expect them to be more oppressive than ever, and try to engineer some excuse to declare Martial Law, and suspend the Midterm elections.

No election has ever been cancelled in American history, not even during the Civil War. If he tries that, his administration becomes officially illegitimate, and every person who occupies a leadership position in the MAGA government should be declared a national security threat, and sent to the new 30,000 bed facility they are building there.

Oh, you don't know about that? Oh, yeah, construction is underway at Guantanamo Bay on the biggest detention facility in America, about 20 times larger than the average maximum security prison, and far from the prying eyes of the courts or the media. They clearly intend to lock up a lot of people, and since it isn't scheduled to be finished around 2029, I suspect they intend to use it to house all the citizens who will protest his third term, which he will win with 98% of the vote.

And the Establishment Dems will declare the election "Fair & Square," even as their own voters are all locked up on a hostile foreign island.

Oh, they most definitely are terrified. They were endorsing Cuomo over Mamdani, despite Cuomo being poison, AND the fact that the voters were always extremely clear in their preference for Mamdani. They don't fucking care what we want, they want us to do as we're told.

These weakling motherfuckers better get on board, or they're going to get run over. America is about to get a massive overhaul, and if the Establishment Dems don't get their shit together, they will be considered as destructive as MAGAs, and will get kicked the political balls right along with them.

First of all, it was a 3 way race, against far better known candidates. He was running an untested Socialist campaign, against ferocious propaganda from BOTH sides. The voters had to remain courageous, ignore ALL that, and tell the "experts" that they didn't care, something that they historically don't tend to do. By all standard political theory, he should have been crushed by 50 points.

In America, many races are within a few points. It's not at all unusual to have a race decided by only a point, or even less. In any race, an 8 point lead is significant. For an unknown Socialist, coming out of nowhere, against the most incredible bi-partisan smear campaign I've ever seen, to win by 8 points, is an enormous victory.

Both MAGA and established Democrats are terrified today. The Progressive Left just fired the first shots of the New Civil War, and hit every target.

Competence is so rare in modern politics, that just doing what you're supposed to do is seen as extraordinary.
