It is sort of hilarious how the left keeps thinking it is HOW they say something vs their complete lack of success and WHAT they are advocating for that people reject.
"If instead of trans women which is othering, we just call everyone who identifies a woman or remove the term woman and call them breeders or people with a uterus then the problem will be solved."
No it won't.
Kamala Harris had just stepped in as the Democratic Partyās nominee for president in the waning days of Brat summer. She went on the popular podcast āCall Her Daddy.ā Tim Walzās outdoorsy drip led to a Chappell Roan-inspired camo trucker hat. The memes were flowing, and the partyās mood was high.
Actually as has been documented, all of this was fake. The podcast set was fully recreated. The endorsements were basically paid by just handing over millions to satisfy appearance riders vs just "paying" them and so on.
It was never real momentum. It was fake marketing.
As liberals try to get their groove back, some party insiders say Democratic politicians have been encouraged to embrace a new form of combative rhetoric aimed at winning back voters who have responded to President Trumpās no-holds-barred version of politics.
Itās an attempt to step outside the bounds of the political correctness that Republicans have accused Democrats of establishing. And it requires being crass but discerning, rude but only to a point.
Online, it has a name: āDark woke.ā
āRepublicans have essentially put Democrats in a respectability prison,ā said Bhavik Lathia, a communications consultant and former digital director for the Wisconsin Democratic Party. āThere is an extreme imbalance in strategy that allows Republicans to say stuff that really grabs votersā attention, where weāre stuck saying boring pablum. I see this as a strategic shift within Democratic messaging ā Iām a big fan of ādark woke.āā
Yes because calling someone a rapist, felon, Nazi fascist who will end the entire Western world and democracy is being locked in a "respectability prison". The issue is Democrats are unchallenged by the media and by their party and when they family get challenged by the public it becomes embarassing for them. On top of that they're fake. Fake laughs, fake support, fake photo ops, fake gestures because they are fake people.
During a meeting of the House Oversight Committee last May, Representative Jasmine Crockett, Democrat of Texas, found herself in a spat with Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene, Republican of Georgia, after Ms. Greene made a jibe about āfake eyelashesā that the chair, Representative James Comer, Republican of Kentucky, declined to prosecute under the committeeās rules on decorum.
āMr. Chair, a point of order,ā Ms. Crockett said. āIām just curious, just to better understand your ruling. If someone on this committee then starts talking about somebodyās bleach blonde bad built butch body, that would not be engaging in personalities, correct?ā
This is what Jasime Crockett sounds like before trying to get her "dark woke" attention.
Now of course she sounds quite different and we can argue about what that difference signifies but the reality is that it isn't authentic. Like "Mamala" Harris who has no children of her own trying to be our national Mom, it isn't about the messaging but the fake people with a fake message.
The Democrats need no help "clapping back" because if they even raise an eyebrow or have a talking point they'll have Daily Show, SNL and others trying to do their crude work for them.
The problem is comedy requires truth and to challenge and Democrats are fake and accept no dissent on any matters.
She was mocked for her "we done picking cotton" nonsense. It was supposedly dark woke but mostly it was just dumb. Someone using prior slavery to advocate for a permanent underclass doesn't work no matter what dialect, infliction or whatever else you adopt.
Dark Woke, worry more about Does it WORK? Worry more about WHAT IS OUR SOLUTION vs TRUMP BAD.
Or double down and lose more. That still works for me.
