This post is a deep fake.
punctuation is word-salad dressing.
“i mean, if you’re AMAB and you vote for Democrats, doesn’t that make you trans by definition?”
i keep trying to create a fake fake, but it always comes out real.
"freedom is when i get what i want."
i react badly to this emoji: 🚨
should Harris run on Bidenomics?

imagine a world in which JD Vance could appropriate the couch meme, make his own knowing, good natured, self mocking references to couches.
everyone knows the allegation is fabricated, that Vance in fact has nothing on this score to be ashamed of. one thing Harris + Wolz on a stage together demonstrate is how thirsty we all our for human beings just having a little fun, expressing a little joy.
@realcaseyrollins@social.teci.world @realcaseyrollins@noauthority.social I think Walz is the right choice from an electoral perspective because he is great. It’s not about ticking boxes, balance, who’s running as a progressive. I think he has strong values that he has real talent at communicating, and that those values are in fact widely shared, much as people like to slice and dice the electorate into little categories.
Screenshot of tweet by Dante Atkins: So many people out there saying "Walz helps with this demo or doesn't help with that demo" and no it's not about any of that. Walz forms a sharp contrast of culture, values, morals and biography with the GOP ticket, and knows how to speak about it. That's it. It's all narrative.
“At one point in his interview, Mr. Walz volunteered that he had never previously used a teleprompter” https://www.nytimes.com/2024/08/06/us/politics/harris-tim-walz-vp-pick.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare&sgrp=c-cb
i can’t remember whether i read the movie or watched the book.

@realcaseyrollins Walz is not an identitarian activist or associated with the unpopular excesses of “wokeness”. The kind of (mild) economic populism he’s helped shepherd in Minnesota are broadly popular, across party lines. So much that Trump and Vance sometimes pretend to embrace them. If you are getting your information about Walz from MAGAists portraying him as “hard left” or whatever, you are only deceiving yourself in ways that the broader electorate is unlikely to be deceived.
Harris and Walz together make a good new America foundation.
A Kamala/Walz ticket is one I can get fully behind, not just as a bulwark against fascism but as a vehicle for social-democratic change.
(I was already very Kamala-amped, but the Walz choice helped ease my fears that she might be too close to Obama-esque, neolib-lite "moderates".)
