We say that things are so dire right now and we say that like this is really as bad as it can get is so existential.

And then the truth is that if a bunch of us moved to other places and started like having hard conversations, I think we have the winning argument.

I think good people who want a better future that is not controlled by a handful of billionaires actually have the winning argument.

And a lot of working people who don't vote the way we think maybe they should agree with us.

Yeah.

Yep.

If it's so existential, a bunch of us are going to have to move to places like Ohio and get to work, and we're not doing that.

And so that's okay, but we're going to have to eventually do something about the cognitive dissonance of the statement that things are existentially dire and we have to take drastic measures.

And then also nobody wants to move to West Virginia.

I really want, and this was almost an I don't think so honey for me, but it's not.

What I really want is for Democrats to start being who Republicans say they are.

Republicans keep saying that Democrats are these transgender leftist radicals who want to destroy the billionaire class.

And then you cut to Chuck Schumer and it's like, he's not on estrogen, he's not sucking dick, he's not doing anything for working people.

There's just nothing.

And then their whole pitch, Gavin Newsom's whole pitch is like, hey, I'm not so different from the Republicans.

And it's like, well, bitch, can you be?

Can somebody be?

Does anyone have any interest in being different than these fucking cretins?

It makes me feel fucking crazy because you look at a place like Missouri where Trump wins by 14, 15, 20 points, whatever, and then abortion, they pass the strictest abortion ban in the country and then they put it up for a referendum and the people vote it down by three points.

So that's a 20 plus point swing between Trump winning and a very contentious progressive issue winning with the same voters.
