SocraticGadfly: Calling out other stupid Blue Anon hot takes over the election

Calling out other stupid Blue Anon hot takes over the election

Sounding like Ryan Grim, even though he's no longer there, per my previous post about Krystal Ball and Kyle Kulinski, The Intercept talked last Thursday about Rep. Rashida Tlaib and how she "bucked her leadership" and stood with her Dearborn constituents. First, on the presidential race in Dearborn, actually, fake dove Trump was first. Harris was third.

Jill Stein was second in Dearborn. Had Tlaib openly announced she was voting Green, THAT would have bucked her leadership. Unfortunately, Stein still finished third, but even the Intercept admits she got 15 percent there.

The reason I said this sounds like Grim even though he's no longer at The Intercept? Ryan himself is sometimes pretty good on investigative journalism, but he's a duopolist on electoral politics and slurps too much on AOC and the Squad Fraud, even in a book. He also slurped on Marianne Williamson a year ago.

That stupidity, though, is far short of the stupidity that says Sonia Sotomayor should resign and that Biden should pull an Amy Comey Barrett and ram somebody else in. First, even less likely to be able to pull it off. Nominal Dems Yachtsman Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema would revolt from the start.

That said, there's also stupidity within stupidity. I present this:

With my quote tweet.

First, Yachtsman Joe Manchin and Silly Sinema wouldn't support this, even if the GOP didn't otherwise obstruct it.

Second, "institutionalist" Joe Bidn would never propose it.

Oh, here's a goodie! The shitheads at NBC, lead by top non-Madcow shithead Alex Seitz-Wald, claim that Trump won so bigly that it's actually proof Kamala and the DNC didn't fuck up but that Trump's win was inevitable.

And, Seitz-Wald IS a shithead of long standing.

I'm still planning an actual post-mortem, but I'm going to have to wait until the #BlueAnon stupidity dies down on Shitter and elsewhere.
