    Well, my “feeds” aren’t any better. Worse, even.

    Everyone gloating.

    And…it’s Joe Fucking Biden we’re gloating about.

    I mean….

    =============
    Really? Geez, we have totally different feeds. I only have a twitter feed, i dont do facebook. But my feed is all about “Guillotining Biden” and such. Then again, I have made it a point to follow Stalinists, Maoists, Leninists, Anarchists, etc.

    They hate Biden more than Trump. If i try to argue Trump is worse, I’m labeled a “Liberal.”

    Tough crowd.

    Not a tough crowd. An ignorant crowd. As AOC said as she worked hard for Biden he is the ONLY choice in this election. So what do the ignorants say to her? I give her a lot of credit to all her energy and courage to support Joe Biden. She is smart-not ignorant. Same with Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-MA), Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), and Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI). They stood for Biden when it counts. I give them not only credit but also courage for their support. Progressives are the future. The above know this. The others you mentioned don’t care about the future -they care about making a statement no matter the cost.

    ==================
    I think you are taking the ‘guillotine’ statement too literally. Yes AOC and Ilhan and others worked to defeat Trump. But they didnt work ‘for Biden.’ They worked ‘against Trump.’ Same with the leftists here.

    You know these swings states really are incredibly close. My Lord. With just a little luck Trump could have had a Landslide victory.

    Btw, in West,byGod, Virginia, Biden got 29 percent. Reddest State in the Nation other than Wyoming, in which Biden got 26 percent.

    Howie got 2 percent for the Greens.

    In a couple of swing states, the Libertarian might just have cost Trump the victories. They were that close.

    Trump is like a super-villain. He’s amazing. What a hellscape this country is.

    Trump would have won without the pandemic. The crashing economy had to have cost him a percentage point or two. What a year. 2020.

    ferrets:https://portside.org/2020-11-06/nasal-spray-prevents-covid-infection-ferrets-study-finds
    A nasal spray that blocks the absorption of the SARS-CoV-2 virus has completely protected ferrets it was tested on, according to a small study released on Thursday by an international team of scientists. The study, which was limited to animals and has not yet been peer-reviewed, was assessed by several health experts at the request of The New York Times.

    If the spray, which the scientists described as nontoxic and stable, is proved to work in humans, it could provide a new way of fighting the pandemic. A daily spritz up the nose would act like a vaccine.

    “Having something new that works against the coronavirus is exciting,” said Dr. Arturo Casadevall, the chairman of immunology at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, who was not involved in the study. “I could imagine this being part of the arsenal.”…

    The last few days I’ve been live-streaming ABC News, NBC News and PBS News to follow the election. I wanted to stream Fox but i guess they didnt have a live-stream.

    Anyway, this is the first time Ive actually watched the Corporate-Network-Pundits in many many years. I had forgotten what they are like. It…is…APPALLING how they ALLLLLLLLLLLL sound like David Gergin. He’s the smooth, soothing, civil, moderate-republican from PBS. I mean they ALLLLLLLLLLL push moderate-republican/Dem-Centrist strategies. ALLL of them.

    I had to turn it off. It was physically painful to listen to it.

    My god in heaven. I had forgotten what a propaganda-wasteland TV ‘news’ is.

    There’s a reason we have another Biden in office now.

    He’ll be Obama/Clinton, I assume. He will be a mass-murderer as all modern Dem-Presidents have been. He will use drones to murder countless people-of-color abroad.

    He will raise tensions with nuclear-power-Russia.

    He will do whatever the CIA/NSA tells him to do. So, he will get effusive praise from all the ex-cia-celebrity-pundits on Dem-Corporate-media.

    He will funnel money to the rich as all corporate-Dems have done. The poor will continue to be arrested often, and live under great stress, and die sooner than the comfortable-wealthy liberals.

    He will continue to allow fracking to poison children all over my area of Appalachia. They will die much sooner than the wealthy-dem-donor-Biden-neolibs.

    He has to be better on the environment than Trump, though I dont know how ‘much’ better.

    He has to be better on Covid than Trump, but i dont know how ‘much’ better.

    He’ll tinker a bit with police reform but it will be all show and no substance. He will leave it to cities to figure out their own ‘reforms’.

    He will be Clinton. Ya know. A moderate Republican. He will listen to moderate-republican-centrists and the corporotocracy will go back to the dem-version.

    A lot of progressives think “we could have had Bernie”. We will never know.
    Leftists often think the country is more left than it really is. Imho.

    The only way change will ever happen in this hellscape is for progressives to run for office downticket and upticket and Win. From schoolboards to The House and Senate. Nothing will change unless that happens. Right now the scoreboard is still 99-1. More or less, everywhere.

    I have to say, the last two days have been two of my favorite days,
    in my entire life. I am loving it. Just loving it.

    The Trump Nightmare is almost over. The Biden Nightmare is about to begin.

    But for today, I am thrilled.

    I am gonna watch Fox News ALL DAY.

    link:https://reason.com/2020/11/04/jo-jorgensen-heading-toward-second-best-result-in-libertarian-party-history/

    “…With votes still being tallied and nails still being bitten in several battleground states, Jorgensen’s vote total currently exceeds the margin between President Donald Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden in three states: Michigan (+0.87 percentage points, with 90 percent of ballots counted), Wisconsin (+0.51, with 97 percent counted), and Nevada (+0.27, with 87 percent).

    Though 1.14 percent marks a steep drop-off from Gary Johnson’s 3.28 percent in 2016….
    ….The Libertarian is quintupling Green Party nominee Howie Hawkins’ current total of 0.23 percent.”

    Well, they are on a pace, for what?, 10-6 ?

    Thats kinda what they look like. A solid, good, team. But not a top-three-type-team. But they do have the potential to beat anyone, if all cylinders are firing.

    Injuries and Covid are wildcards for every team. Its a surreal-pandemic-season.

    They have a lot of tough NFC West games coming up. They need the Left Tackle to stay healthy.
