Was tempted to call this “Debate 2: Electric Boogaloo” but a) A lot of Lemmy won’t get the OG reference. and 2) “Boogaloo” has been co-opted and carries an unfortunate connotation these days.

Also, while it’s Trump’s 2nd debate of the season, it’s Harris’s first…

It’s being run by ABC News at 9 PM Eastern time, 6 PM Pacific, I see MSNBC starts their coverage TWO HOURS EARLY. That’s a lot of air time to fill, guys. Good luck!

    1. “Boogaloo” has been co-opted and carries an unfortunate connotation these days.

    I’m nowhere near ready to give up the fight on this one. Those bastards can pry “[Anything] 2: Electric Boogaloo” from my cold, dead hands.

      Agreed, and I think the context of saying “Something 2…” makes it entirely clear that it’s nothing to do with their fascist bullshit.

      The meaning of words is always contextual.
