draconian policies are very popular, evidently. but moreover, Biden is not trying to win staunch Republicans, he's trying to cement his appeal among the sliver of constituents that put him over the top last cycle (normal, suburban whites). making the GOP take seditious positions on immigration is probably a fine strategic move; and, while the redditor-lib affect --one of earnest, sycophantic defense of Biden-- is really lame, i wouldn't conclude that immoral positions are identical with strategic mistakes. if moral clarity and rectitude were sufficient to win, the Left should be, i'd like to think, undefeated.
huh? if the GOP rejects the deal, Biden gets a feather in his cap, if the GOP rejects the deal, they look extreme and silly to the small sliver of marginal, contestable voters.
obviously there's nothing Biden can do to win MAGA chuds; they'll pick the real fascism every time. but he doesn't need to -- he only needs to cement the 3pct or whatever of normal suburban whites who used to be moderate Republicans (the same constituents that he took in 2020). and those people probably don't like the "vibe" of American being overrun by foreigners, and also probably think that seceding from the Union is unserious and dangerous.
also, I'd think: the material interests just won't produce a progressive, humane policy; the people that would most materially benefit are the prospective immigrants who are definitionally non-voters. the Atlantic readers with No Human is Illegal yard signs aren't abandoning Biden for this; the Left, such that is, has already been brought to heel (and those who plan to withhold votes or support are already jumping ship over Biden's genocide; in for a penny, in for a pound, the Dem advisors must think).
isn't the problem with golf the amount of urban space and absurd amount of water it requires? (and, like, country-clubs have a history of de jure racial exclusivity.) like, class resentment is very understandable, but this sounds like someone who hasn't carved fresh powder, ya know?
i don't think all white people should die.

Yes. All Biden needs to secure is that small margin of normal, suburban whites. Trump will be on parade and on trial for months (as the media is on him and off Biden, the polls will correct themselves), the Republicans will have to defend their routinely rejected abortion policies, the Fed will turn the money tap back on and the economy vibes will be good. Biden has already whipped every threat from the left into shape, he just needs to pursue a policy of cruelty to outsiders and he's got a comfortable W.
Just rulin' the waves from the settee, innit?
yeah okay but now i have salty coffee.
the bloomer side of the news megathread this whole time - AKA, my side - then you'll basically see all your opinions being said right back at you, which is quite nice.
Love this for you/may you never be wrong
