I'm not an accelerationist but you gotta play the cards in your hand.

Future prospects for those kids aren't great and there are right-wing grifters targeting the disenfranchised youth. Fascism is a tempting ideology for those who are scared about the future and feel they deserve better opportunities in life. Also being an edgy teen is a right of passage. I've also seen that many many gen z kids care about Palestine, and Kamala told them to fuck off so they did. The ones that see a genocide and don't care tend to lean right.

If the democrats could show a plan to fight climate change, reduce wealth inequality, and stop arming genocide, youth support would slam left like a screen door in the wind. With a broad brush, the older members of the caucus don't see that or don't care.

I was pulling from the current court, but yes. It's almost like giving nine unelected geriatrics the ultimate authority on all laws isn't a good idea.

Y'all are seriously downvoting the "maybe we shouldn't spend over $22bn a year on weapons used to genocide" post? That really highlights OP's point.

I completely agree with you. The only way to get them to show us all who they are is to fight for what is right. Every time they fight against the people it becomes harder to ignore their blight. Either things get better or more people see who is making things worse. Win-win.

How could they make a president immune from any checks and balances?

How could they allow states to enforce draconian laws against the homeless?

How could they work towards ending voting rights?

How could they give lower judges the power to overrule experts?

They can. They have. They will again. The states have the constitutional right to select their electors as they choose, but this court has demonstrated complete contempt for justice and fairness.

If you live in a state that hasn't joined the NPVIC push your state legislature to adopt it.

Wasn't the ocean surface temp in the gulf 100F this summer? How can you look at that data daily and not ask yourself what could cause that? Even in 2004 it's disappointing that it could be overlooked.
