    It’s more illustrative of how liberals and progressive consistently suck at messaging and voter outreach because they are always hedging, equivocating or focused on negativity.

    No wonder voters don’t engage with that messaging when it’s pretty apparent that even the most enthusiastic progressive barely gets out of bed to advocate for anything other than the new outrage of the day. And I’m not just pointing fingers here - I am definitely guilty of this myself.









  • Not that this is “ok” but it’s why “buy whatever you can as soon as you can” is good advice. If you’d put whatever you had into a shitty condo four years ago, and kept saving at the same rate, you’d likely be in good position to trade up soon.

    I see a lot of people I know end up in the same position because they’ve been waiting for either the exact right circumstances or for prices to “crash.” All the people i know who started with anything they could afford now have a huge amount of equity in nice homes. The difference is real and primarily about timing more than income or location.
