there is a rich vein of "if we perform enough of a caricature of masculinity that's gotta make republicans stop calling us pussies" anxiety in Democratic politics that started with Truman and has not stopped for even a single election cycle since

yyyep. to stop the Republicans from calling Democrats commies, we are just gonna have to keep escalating the Korean War up until we realize Douglas Macarthur is actively masturbating to the thought of nuking Beijing

It says a lot that the guy who famously tanked Dukakis is not only still has the ear of the party but has only grown in influence.

The whole party was dickmatized by Reagan and has never recovered.

It's funny that an actor who spent the war shooting movies and wore makeup all the time became this avatar for Republican masculinity.

And all the while the republican party is like 85% rapists and Dems never use this against them 🙄

Even though (with two exceptions explained by unusual circumstances) the only Dems who have been elected president since Truman are just regular guys who can communicate and explain things clearly, i.e., Kennedy, Clinton, Obama, and Biden (before he got doddering). You'd think they'd learn.

no, he’s throwing trans girls under the bus to try to win over pedos

Which is why it's so fucking ironic that they killed Harris' campaign.

Although the establishment Dems weren’t eager to parade around Platner as an example, because although he may appeal to the fabled ‘centrists’ and ‘politically homeless,’ he angered all the Zionist power players.

a lot of these dudes (and most of them are dudes) would have been far better served to just get in the gym as a way to deal with their weird psychosexual pathologies instead of living vicariously through Platner's biography and performance of gender.

Real Americans are "heartland" wealthy car dealership owners, gangs of corrupt $500,000 a year police officers, white farm millionaires with 80k luxury "pickup trucks" (but not actual indigenous "farmers") Working class service worker Democrats are out of touch "elite" (but not actual billionaires)

Tragically if there's one thing we know for sure it's that hitting the gym does not solve people's psychosexual pathologies

Why are you blaming this on "Democratic politics"? Platner is a leftist, he's YOUR guy. Traditional Democratic politics is to immediately oust politicians for the slightest whiff of creepiness, like Al Franken. The entire reason y'all liked Platner was because he wasn't a traditional Democrat!

like that nice Joe Biden character. and that Ralph Northam character. and that Bill Clinton character. sorry, friend. if it makes you feel better, the reason he did so well against the traditional Legally Not Dead Yet democrat was he ripped off the Buttigeig/Spanberger "da fightin' troop" routine.

I'm a leftist and I never trusted Platner. But traditional dems don't oust their own until blows up in their face. People knew about Swalwell for years before he faced any consequences.

Leftist begins at pro-democracy (anti-capitalist). Just because someone is slightly to the left of outright fascists doesn't make them a leftist.

It's why politicians like Spanberger say stupid shit like "laser focused" over and over again. And go hard on photos of themselves at the gun range.

Maybe if they’d try doing something beyond wearing a flannel shirt, people would stop thinking they’re pussies. The only actual tough guys in congress that come to mind actually have pussies, so they just get called deranged and hysterical

Is that kinda of why newsom started his right-wing podcast? I blame all those $$$ DNC consultant uncles too.

Bryce Youngquist

the newsom right wing podcast is a distinct but related issue, that being "the eternal liberal wet dream is of the day they find the One True Minority they can throw under the bus that makes the conservatives stop fighting them for power" fetishizing an imagined maturity, as opposed to masculinity

Yeah well, they need to get over it. Nothing makes you look like weak like trying to impress the worst people.
