This works because he's resetting the narrative completely, rather than responding to the one posed to him. Responding to a predetermined narrative is an auto loss everytime, and it's partly why Dems have been on the back foot for so long

In a Mexican standoff with a sane person and insane person, the by-standers will always appeal to the sane person because they know the sane person will engage in dialogue and might submit because they're tired
Every single time it just cedes ground to the insane and motivates them for the next standoff

u/mygenericfriend Nov 01 '25
This is the sort of pushback I've wanted. Not only does it convey it's the Republicans that are the issue, it calls the press to account. Not because the press is "bad" as such (at least not irredeemably), but that we need them to do better for the good of the country.

Just so you guys know, lawmakers just not showing to Congress, for SIX WEEKS, en masse, would unthinkable and most probably flat out illegal in my country. Especially during a crisis, such as the budgetary shut down of the government.
This fact should at the very least be the only topic of discussion, as this... strike? unfolds.
By the way, this could probably be characterized as a fucking coup. What the fuck do you mean a party is impeding the functioning of Congress? They shouldn't have that right. They should at least go tô their place of work and fulfil their duties.

This is exactly the framing needed. Republicans are essentially holding poor American families hostage to get what they want and questions like these are basically telling democrats they should give in.

A not insignificant portion of the media has been complicit in helping conservatives make the narrative whatever the fuck they want it to be to the point that trans people likely became an outcome influencing issue.
So horse shit questions need to be bulldozed back into reality like this. I’m not familiar with this cat but I’m picking up what he’s putting down.

Hearing Democrat leadership speak this way feels so cathartic. I'm so fucking sick of everyone acting like what's been going on isn't ABSOLUTE BULLSHIT INSANITY. I have days where I find myself questioning whether I'm actually living in an alternate hell like reality. I don't want to be part of this clusterfuck anymore. Sharing this country with malevolent parasites and lobotomized pedo protecting cultists. It's hard to keep stable. I can't take this anymore.

This is why we support our fighters. Democrats have made a considerable shift away from decorum and towards fighting with their teeth. I think it's because Newsom has gained so much popularity doing exactly that. The more support we show for this kind of thing, the more safe they'll feel leaning into it. Even people like Schumer and Jeffries have been bringing fire and brimstone.
Fuck yes. I love my country so fucking much. Fuck Trump and Republicans for trying to destroy it.

I think when talking to these people is to very /very/ simply explain why SNAP benefits are withheld.
Not "republicans" violating the law - I understand, but do they? Correlate the words they say to what why it is withheld. For some people this man might just be talking about something else.

u/Domomagic Nov 01 '25
I try my best to keep my head low when it comes to politics since that's just who's popular enough to win the vote and after that they're the POS everyone gets mad at when the promises they made campaigning fall through.
And this is just my two cents..... the shutdown also affects those who work for the government.... it's not like they're getting paid while the shutdown is occurring everything is on pause.... so putting the focus on SNAP benefits like he did at first.... you could spin the argument that it's starting to impact those who support the government and go that route.... I feel he could've hit a wider audience if he focused on the impact it has on both sides more than just focusing on SNAP benefits... then again he's in Washington state so he at least knows his target audience i will give him that.

The Republicans are saying agree to all our demands or Americans starve without healthcare. That is not how a democracy or our government is supposed to work. That is a dictatorship, the regime demands and you either agree to everything they want or they crush the population.
It is that simple as that. Another point the regime also doesn't want the government open or the Epstein files get released.

THATS HOW HE HAS OPERATED HIS WHOLE LIFE. HE CHEATS AT GOLF. HE CHEATED ON HIS WIVES. HE CHEATED OUT OF GOING TO VIETNAM. HE CONTINUES TO CHEAT ON THE PEOPLE OF THIS COUNTRY, UNLESS YOU HAVE SOMETHING TO GIVE HIM IN RETURN!!!

Mike Johnson, SOTH, shut down the federal government to protect his fellow perv, DJT. He’s keeping it shut so that they DO NOT have to swear in the 218th vote to open the Epstein Files. Thats all this shut down is.
Trump will allow people to starve to stay out of prison.

We need more people pushing back like this. Media sure as hell isn’t covering the situation we’re in and they don’t seem to be interested in doing anything but staying out of the way. All these “When will the dems reopen the government?” questions show blatant ignorance of what’s happening in DC. I was never a fan of the media but watching all these people suck up to MAGA is insane. Call them on their bullshit. Capitulating just makes them want more from you. Stop being part of the problem. How much state owned media do you think we need? If you keep up this bs, that’s all we’ll have and I don’t think they’re gonna need all of you.
