I think being on the internet has given a lot of leftists a drastically skewed view of how popular our beliefs are.

Most politicians support Israel because most Americans support Israel - only 8% of the population thinks the US should publicly criticize Israel.

Bernie didn't lose the primaries because the Democrats were just too scared of having a real progressive in office so they rigged the election, he lost because socialists are the least-electable people in America and because fewer people voted for him. That's how elections work. ( In b4 'but everyone else dropped out in a coordinated effort to concentrate votes behind biden!' - yeah, if your candidate can only win when the vote is split eight ways that's not a viable candidate. And I voted for Bernie!)

As of 2021 only about 15% of Americans support defunding the police, 47% would like to see increased police funding, and the number of people who think violent crime is a "very big" problem jumped 20 percentage points up to 61% in one year.

And it's just really frustrating to see internet leftists being super condescending as though everybody should already know everything and be on board with this stuff or else they're a Bad Person, driving people away from leftist ideology or making people too afraid to ask questions lest they be branded as a Centrist or worse, a Liberal, or refusing to engage in politics until they're being specifically catered to even though that would be political suicide (and would therefore not accomplish anything anyway.)

And like. It's fine to think that people who support Israel or more police funding are bad people, frankly I think a lot of them are. But I think even more are just misinformed or not really informed about alternatives at all. And not everyone is in the headspace to do education or outreach, but when you're only 10% of the population I think you need to make a choice about whether you want to feel good about being right on the internet or whether you want to be effective. It's frustrating to have to walk someone step-by-step through why genocide is bad, but it's a lot more likely to change minds than shouting at someone that they're obviously just a genocide-loving racist is.

#feel free to call me a neoliberal bootlicker if it'll make you feel better #i just think that effective action and harm reduction are more important than Being Right On The Internet #and I also don't think the Grand Revolution is going to happen. I think we need to work with what we have. sorry. #also i was having trouble finding recent stats about the i-p conflict #in general sympathy for palestine was hovering around 30% earlier this year #but i don't know if that actually translates to supporting palestine in the conflict or how that might have changed after the Oct. 7 attack #that npr poll was the most recent but it was less than a week after the attack when misinformation and sympathy for israel was at a height #so hopefully that number is higher now #us politics

Adventures with van Helsing

What would they do without Mina

The only nightmare worse for Jonathan than he himself going back to that castle, is for his wife to go there

Gun: Procured

These two are too sweet

They're coming for you, Dracula

Bonus: sleepy Jonathan in the steamboat

And, too, it made me think of the wonderful power of money!

lol Mina is so earnest about this. "Gee golly it sure is nice that we're rich!" She's right, it is damn handy that Our Heroes aren't impeded by any material wants, but I couldn't see myself uncomplicatedly praise money in the same tone one might talk about aloe vera

thinking about jonathan listing "the Vampire's lips upon your throat" when describing the horrors he experienced at castle dracula

i like to think that while the others may not have put it together, at some point while studying the records jonathan saw the similarities between his final night in the castle and lucy and mina's symptoms

Orson Welles explaining to reporters that his radio dramatization of H.G. Wells' "War of the Worlds" was fiction. CBS made public the transcript of the dramatization, which was aired the night of October 30, 1938, and caused thousands of listeners to panic because of the realistic broadcast of an imaginative invasion of men and machines from Mars.

The hysteria was nowhere near as great as the media claimed.

"This was corroborated by his landlord, who had received by messenger the key of the house together with the rent due, in English money. This had been between ten and eleven o'clock last night."

Me, reading this the first time: okay

Me, rereading and being struck with horror: ...did Dracula pay Skinsky's rent so no one would go looking for him?

Me: Did he go and pay the rent and return the key himself???

#dracula daily #dd oct 30 #was this landlord briefly face-to-face with Dracula?????
