    Is AOC actually still relevant to libs? Someone thinks so if she’s releasing this statement… But it doesn’t matter who or how many times and ways they say ‘biden is your candidate, deal with it’ to voters who won’t. It makes me wonder who thinks anyone out there gives a shit what she says.

      The campaign also thought a bunch of soft lib influencers were going to fix their youth support problem, nobody making decisions in the Biden camp is competent

        You know how every accusation is a confession? Do you ever feel like the strategy of just getting some talking head to support your candidate used to work on people? Like Johnny Carson probably had some double digit % effect in a swing states. The way they want to ban tiktok means that somebody was probably popping off about Israel 60 years ago and they just took them off the airways.

          That’s the big problem with social media for the establishment - there’s no management acting as a filter like there is in legacy media. It’s easy to keep pro-Palestine voices off the airwaves if they have to apply for the job and get rejected for not being “a good fit” or whatever the made up reason is. Banning pro-Palestine voices on social media backfires in ways that just not hiring pro-Palestine voices never could.
