      Idk how much of this actually matters to real people

      Media overfocuses on tankie or Obamna mustard incident or above but does anyone actually care that much outside of civility lib/right-wing TV ghoul optics media circles? It’s funny I guess

      It’s mostly manufactured imo, people think tankie is cringe cuz the media/electioneering people said it was cringe but is it actually any more nationalistic or military-death-cult-pilled or “trying too hard” in substance than what any other president/president candidate does? freedom-and-democracy

      Examining actual material factors like circumstances of class rule and how the capitalist class decides which guy gets to represent them is out of the question, so at best we get OBJECTIVE REASONABLE POLICY DISCUSSION jagoff or at worst completely vibes based politics like Gerald Ford lost Texas cuz he ate a tamale the wrong way :) (these not necessarily mutually exclusive ofc) to justify what happens after the fact while obscuring the class power behind it
