I’m heaving with laughter because remember how the Biden and later Harris campaigns used this exact same word, “messaging”, when they thought stupid voters were stupidly misunderstanding how amazing the economy was:

It’s not happy heaving, mind you. It’s mostly cynical with a smattering of sardonic.

Yes, it’s messaging that’s the problem. Right-oh. If only somebody could explain a bit better why this is an amazing economy.

I think we shouldn’t vote any more because honestly.

    Aha! If we just talk at the problem enough, I can buy a house! All along, the problem wasn’t money, it was absorbing too many negative messages!

    Every morning, I will get up and repeat 100 times: We can buy a house.

    That’ll make everything better.

      I have very bad, rageful thoughts towards people who seriously use the word “messaging”. Manipulative bastards.

        It’s right up there with “impactful” and “manifesting” (used as a transitive verb), on my list of words that will make me discount you as a person.

        Ungenerous, probably. But it is a waste of my life to interact with such people.

    Did you read that they straight up refused to release the october jobs report? At least the biden administration had the decency to cook up the stats. These people don’t even want to make that effort.

    Yeah, they need to message harder that everything’s fine and only if you didn’t have avocado toast three times a day you’d be able to afford a house.

      The only thing the “left” has left these days is class warfare.

        If the economy stays as it is, class warfare is what will decide every future election.
