The simpsons got it right decades ago with Dems: We're incompetent and can't govern Reps: We're evil! But Seriously, the biggest problem the Dems have in 2025 is that they're ANCHORED in establishment. Those in the lead now are not there because they're capable, intelligent, or popular, but because they waited their turn. It's a commitment to fairness and rules to the point of self sabotage. Tell Schumer and Pelosi to take a hike, put AOC, Booker, anyone else who has a plan and is committed to actually FUCKING DOING SOMETHING in charge, rather than telling them to play nice with the party and wait their turn behind the wheel when current leadership dies.
Given that Win10 is getting deprecated this year and Win11 has specific hardware requirements, I think 2025 could be the year of the linux PC. I'll be curious to see how massive corporations for which this would mean millions or billions in hardware upgrades to stick with Win will square that circle.
Cool! Hopefully it'll actually reach the public before I have kids so they won't have to get a vasectomy like I did. Wait...
Then maybe it's worth bringing up their recent behavior as a patent troll. Regardless of what you think of palworld, nintendo is suing them based on patents that were filed AFTER palworld was announced, or even released in some cases, and has gone on to follow the patent troll playbook beat for beat. Recently they've started putting in more baffling patents as ammo against companies seen as threats, such as patenting squeenix's "HD2D" art style, or, in an extreme, but recent example, patenting "a character standing on top of a vehicle and moving with that vehicle"
Because to do so, you must recognize them as a coup: bro is illegally using force to stop government function. This is, by definition, a coup.
