AOC speaks

It would be uncomfortable to normally eyeroll everything a particularly ridiculous, non serious, pandering populist says, but then find them resonating perfectly with you on one very specific issue. Might even make you think twice.

The Majority Report… LOL They might need to change that name.

This could be an opportunity to moderate, work on things that can build consensus. Nope, let’s carry on.
You know, I think a fair number of the regressive are actually looking forward to this. They love LARPing. They LARP as women pretending to be men and vice versa. They LARP as Animated Animals. They LARP that they are Palestinians living under the cruel weight of Jewry. Now they get to LARP as the French Resistance living under Nazi rule… They’ll love it.

Yes that aspect is always there. TDS pieces shrieking about the death of our Democracy and various fascistic scenarios are genre fiction, and hit the same spot in a media diet as true crime does. Role playing makes it feel more real and exciting, and there will be plenty of that.

The Majority Report is my mainstay for progressive punditry. They take themselves so seriously, and they produce such non serious content. It’s compelling in its way, and it’s always interesting to listen to people with self righteous cultural programming, running that programming.
