I would argue that mario kart is as much a work of art as any "art game." I'd also make the same arguement for films. Art of any kind doesn't have to be good, or prestigious, or "arty" to still be art.
Completely agree. But i think he will at least fight and be clear on who is stopping him and why, which will make for good agitprop. Unlike Bernie folding and calling Biden a "good friend", or AOC capitulating to leadership and crying about "committee appointments"
That thread is really something. Like every picture of Ukrainian soldiers has some fascist symbol or other, but they still say there's no Nazis in Ukraine.
he is absolutely one of us
they will fight him harder then, but if he is one of us than he actually stands a chance in that fight unlike Bernie or AOC who fold immediately.
Not being endorsed by Dems is the best possible endorsement any candidate can have. Everyone hates them. They can't read the metaphorical room though, because the only actual rooms they're in are full of rich donors and lanyard freaks
culturally fascist
perfect. This is why people act like Trump "hijacked" the republican party. US libs are too culturally fascist to notice that the republican party was a vehicle for a crypto-fascist movement for over 60 years before MAGA came about
The dems do more than that. They play an important role in normalizing and solidifying the policies put in place by republicans 
She and the dems abandoned any progressive cause to fight for a fascism with less abhorent asthetics.
Neoliberalism is fascism with "reason and logic", technocratic aesthetics
Project 2029: same as Project 2025 but done quietly
that lib was a goldmine
Can't believe no one wanted to vote to protect black men's crypto. 
I keep seeing Harris ads with this line about Americans "not just getting by, but getting ahead."
Ahead of who? 
Ahead of who! 
USians don't even bat an eye at this. Their ideology has created a mass delusion that causes them to believe "everyone can get ahead" in the competition of all against all. But "getting ahead" necessarily neans someone is behind!
Libs will deny this if confronted. They can live with this dissonance because they fundementally do not see the people behind as human beings. People behind have moral failings and therefore could never be ahead - no matter what you try to do for them. The people ahead obviously deserve it and are the only real people anyway so they can't even see how obviously anti-social the entire concept of "getting ahead" is. Deeply psychopathic culture.
We need a STRONG Republican Party 
BUT, if they win this election democracy is OVER!
So maybe we can talk about genocide later kiddo 
Jan 6 was an attempt to end our democracy and Trump will do it again!
No we can't stop him from running. We're not AuThOrItArIaNs sweaty.
Third party runs are HEINOUS in the "land of the free."
RFK sucks but damn Blue MAGA is wild.
Saw a comrade post this as a response in the Mousolini dunk thread, that become a dunk thread on an annoying lib calling us tankies lol.
Thought this was really insightful, and from a different angle than what i usually see as the rascist connotations of "tankie" and of western left anti-communism, and thought it deserved its own thread. Particularly, since the influx of western anti-cummunist takes we've been dealing with recently.
I get your point about overanalyzing things that don't need to be. But i don't think that means that its any less art. All movies are art. I don't think all movies should be analyzed the same way and to the same degree, because they aren't all trying to do the same thing, right? There's differemt genres, different things that the artists involved are trying to achieve. Something Stepbrothers or Anchor Man are trying to do something different than The Godfather, or Citizen Kane, or whatever - but theyre all still movies - they're all still art.
