I ORDER MY COFFEE BLACK. NO SUGAR. NO MILK. NO WATER. NO CUP. THEY HAND ME THE BEANS. I EAT THEM IN THE PARKING LOT LIKE A HORSE. THE BARISTAS HAVE STOPPED CHARGING ME. I HAVE NOT SLEPT SINCE TUESDAY. I CAN HEAR THE WIFI MAGNUS BEEFCASTLE (@magnusbeefcastle.bsky.social)

This is a paranoid fantasy that the media encourages but it’s actually not true. The US produces a very educated populace. It’s just that the sheer scale of our R&D requires drawing on the finest talents of a far larger population base via immigration.

If a Mamdani can win the primary (aka an AOC) then you will get a Mamdani. If not, you won’t. “The Dems” don’t do shit; it’s the will of millions of primary voters who you need to convince. And remember that your “I love this politician” candidate is someone else’s “hold my nose” candidate

a lot of the “dems: give us x” posts are basically the “mods, do y” posts with a few words switched around
