The "press" is complicit, and so is our party's language [View all]

The Returdlicans are absolutely great at "branding".

Take the "Alligator Alcatraz" bullshit. They repeat that moniker over, and over, and over again. Everyone from the Dipshit in the White House, to the Kindergarten Returdlicans repeat it...IN LOCKSTEP.

Pretty soon, EVERY NEWS REPORT about it uses the term "Alligator Alcatraz". What's even worse is, Democratic politicians begin to use that term when discussing the "Auschwitz of Florida".

That's not "fighting for the moment"! That's talking about an unbelievably fascist turn in America on the fascists terms!

Take the "Big Beautiful Bill" for example. The Democratic Party began relabeling it eventually, but by then, the linguistic terms for branding that disastrous piece of legislation had already been set. I actually wretched everytime I heard a Dem use the term "Big Beautiful Bill". Can't blame the media for labeling, if we are doing it ourselves.

If we want to win, I would suggest we STOP LETTING THEM DEFINE THE TERMS OF DEBATE.

Some smart political "strategist" better understand that, in this Tic-Toc. X, Facebook world, if you wait ONE FUCKING SECOND to begin setting your terms, IT'S TOO LATE!

The Retrumplican Party...EVERY LAST ONE OF THEM...won't even acknowledge and use the correct name of the Democrat - IC Party. NOT FUCKING ONE OF THEM.

Are we concerned our "language" will harm "decorum"?

How about this?

Let's worry about decorum after we have stomped this MAGAt Nazi party out of existence.

It is about 60 years too fucking late to start fighting fire with fire.

This shit started when these asspickles assassinated the Kennedys and MLK...and no matter what they may say in public, they privately celebrate those assassinations.

These are the fucking monsters that have seized our country. Can we please STOP using their fucking terms of debate?
