Will they learn the right lessons from this election?

Voters dont care about facts they care about feelings.

Stop thinking Latinos and white women are a monolith that will always vote liberal. They aren't.

Who thought that? White women have voted mostly Republican for decades, that's nothing new.

That said I don't care :yeshrug: at this point the country is cooked

I just skimmed 'Project 2029' platform and it seems OK. The problem is they are cynically trying to raise money off of it. Also, those proposing it have horrible track records on the points they say they are supporting.

The architects and primary contributors to Project 2029 are mostly from established centrist and technocratic circles.

This is all branding and optics than substantive change.

But remember, Project 2029 is explicitly modeled after the Heritage Foundation’s conservative initiative!!!

Now the next part IS REALLY IMPORTANT!!
I made the below thread, and I mention AI Techno-Feudalism.



Rich Techies are currently trying gain as much power in politics as possible so they secure that spot.
That thread I made is a must read to understand Project 2029!!

Jon cool but he's always going to have this angry spectator vibe. if he aint contributing then you can't really do all this and that about whats being done. Yeah we know dems ain't getting shyt shaking but what solid plans and practices do you have sir. Otherwise maybe put some energy and resources into the people trying

I've been saying some "project XXXX" sounds like the response it is. It's never a first strike, always a counter-punch.

They need to talk that shyt about rich folks and re-redistributing the wealth, punishing cheaters, and making it so we are all on a more even field.

A lot of the leadership doesn't want to do this because it costs them money. Talk about broad issues and smaller issues and make rich folks the villain. There

is no way around it. Rich folks drive us into these ditches and they need to pay not just in taxes but in getting their shyt generationally rocked so we have less

billionaires.

They basically already had something like that.

The establishment refused to support it. People need to understand: The federal government has too many politicians whose interests are DIRECTLY tied to the financial sector. Their personal pensions and investments are directly tied to the performance of the banks who lend money to venture capitalists who fund tech projects and sell financial instruments. They had a chance to take power back in 2008 and they blinked. They could've bought a controlling interest in the banks they bailed out, they could have drafted regulation to prevent officials from trading stock whilst in congress. They could've vastly empowered the IRS and SEC to go after speculators and punish them with jail time, fines tied to percentages of income, or banning them from the industry entirely.

They didn't. Because that would hurt their own personal wealth. When you're old you're focused on protecting what you already have. When you're young, you're focused on creating opportunities to acquire things. This central conflict needs to be resolved within that party before it can be unified and actually be able to give people SERIOUS change. Look how they treated David Hogg who correctly identified this issue and tried to support younger candidates who can run against out of touch elites and get them out of office.

Note how Schumer and Jeffries were slow to endorse Mamdani, especially Jeffries who even refuses to say his name. I'd be mad too if he beat the guy I supported in my own district.

A grass roots movement is needed from the ground up. City by city, state by state, these out of touch politicians need to be unseated and replaced by people who actually want to listen to the electorate. It won't matter if you get a progressive president if congress is still filled with people who refuse to hold the powers who are actually making people miserable to account.

There is a mental illness problem in this country, it's the obsession with money. People who have multiple millions of dollars react like a hoarder when you tell them that those boxes of crumbling news papers need to go. They can't stand the idea of being taxed slightly more so other people have a chance. They cling to their money desperately even though they can never spend all of it. They're sick and need to be treated with therapy so that they can recognize that no amount of money will ever make them feel safe and secure and their problem isn't that they don't have enough money, their problem is that they're paranoid, anxious, resentful, and a bizarre mixture of narcissistic(refusing to mentor the younger generation or step down because they NEED the attention) and masochism(choosing to work with chronic age-related health problems regardless of having enough money to enjoy 3-5 lifetimes of comfortable living).
