This has to be a troll, right?

"This ridiculous urban garden that produces virtually no food is more valuable to its community than a super market" cannot possibly be a real take. I refuse to believe it
My favorite part of CHAZ was the community gardener who wanted to replace our entire food system with independent subsistence farming because he hung out at a hippy commune for 5 months

Every far-left movement starts with accidentally starving people to death. Doesn't matter if they're ancoms or Marxist-Leninists - causing an unnecessary famine right out of the gate is an absolute necessity if you wish to form a worker's paradise
I will hear no ill words spoken of the People's Garden of Capitol Hill. Watching a meth addict who later murdered his girlfriend and drowned himself in bleach destroy the CHAZ garden with karate was foundational to who I am today

Reddit is a fucking scourge. This chart claims America has more cops per capita than Europe does, which I know for a fact is the opposite of the truth. Dude got 2,700 upvotes spreading literal fake news to gullible, mouth-breathing idiots Image
I found the source and know exactly what they got wrong. They're doing total law enforcement employees for the American numbers but only sworn officers for Europe. The US numbers are wrongly counting administration/dispatchers as police officers

worldpopulationreview.com/state-rankings…
The NYPD has 35,000 sworn officers, but 50,000 total employees. This means they have 4.1 cops per 1000 residents, but if you count non-officer employees, you get 5.9 per 1000.

Even NYC doesn't have 6.5 cops per 1000 residents, much less the entire state

Owning Trump by calling attention to the best thing he ever supported
I don't think there's any way the vaccine as a whole hurts Trump even in a GOP primary. The GOP is so fucked if DeSantis' strategy is "attack Trump for not being anti-abortion enough and creating the vaccine and then try to pivot to the center in the last 6 months of 2024"
LMFAO

"You don't understand, I am now opposed to one of the greatest accomplishments of my own administration"

The GOP is such a fucking dumpster fire. Jesus Christ.

Leftists against welfare queens. The Libertarianization of the American left is at last approaching its final stage
The far-left slowly transforming into anarcho-capitalists with woke branding has been an incredible thing to watch. In 30 years when people are wondering why the DSA supports flat taxes and the elimination of food stamps, I can say I watched it happen in real time
"You see, if you are against basic law enforcement, it soon becomes apparent that no state programs can exist. Consequently, as the far-left became more opposed to policing, they began advocating ancap, boot straps self-sufficiency and started undercutting state capacity"

The GOP will never learn. In the era of the internet and ideological polarization, you are not losing elections because your canvassing efforts aren't efficient enough

People just hate the populists
The GOP won the gubernatorial race in Nevada and the statewide congressional vote and they won every election in Georgia other than Herschel Walker's

But somehow we are supposed to believe the problem is their canvassing operation rather than candidate quality in senate races Image
You are out of your mind if you think the problem with the Georgia Senate race was problems with your canvassing. The GOP won every statewide race by 5% or more: Kemp won by 7.5 and Raffensperger won by 9.

You lost because people voted for every Republican except for Walker

Eric Adams is my favorite political figure. He's constantly trying to fend off criticism from the left by claiming to be a progressive and then 5 minutes later he'll be like "wokeness is costing the Democrats minority votes. We must crush socialism in all its forms"
I feel a deep kinship with Mayor Adams because I too am an incredible weirdo with a grab bag of political beliefs that most people find utterly incomprehensible
A centrist corporate Democrat who supports prayer in school and gave a Memorial Day speech about how America is the greatest place in history and Communism blows

You're completely wrong if you think Eric Adams is typical of center-left Democrats

Holy shit, this dude thinks the GOP can win young voters by being more like JD Vance. Mike DeWine won 18-44 voters in Ohio by 4 and JD Vance lost them by 6 Image
Man, it sure is impressive that JD Vance won Ohio by 6.1%. I mean, it's not like the GOP won Ohio's congressional vote by 13 and the gubernatorial election by 25 ImageImage
I could give you a center-right party that would win tons of young people and dominate the Millennial vote, but it would look absolutely nothing like the modern GOP and American Greatness would hate it
