The Democrat machine has not yet come out openly to declare that ‘hate is love,’ but they might as well. Because getting people to hate one another is their goal.
“Joy” is now Democrats’ official campaign strategy. Of course, joy in the true sense resonates with people who are starving for it. But we ought to ask about the deeper purpose of the Harris-Walz presidential campaign adopting “joy” as messaging. Even The New York Times recently offered skepticism, stating “joy is not a political strategy.” No, it’s not.
But I’ll go out on a limb, and say there’s a weird trick going on here. Consider thinking of Vice President Kamala Harris’s “joy schtick” as analogous to the joystick used in aircraft and video games. The joystick is all about imposing control, dictating movements and direction. Likewise, the psychological operation behind the Democrats’ joy schtick is about controlling or “nudging” the direction of an electorate that’s profoundly miserable because of the insane amounts of inflation, crime, and social turmoil cultivated under the Democrats’ watch.
As with all such “joy” campaigns in the history of modern totalitarianism, they end up tacitly stating that “misery is joy.” It’s like being beckoned into a sado-masochistic relationship in which inflicting and receiving pain is supposed to be pleasurable. Enthusiasm becomes mandatory.

Good article. But some trivia. Where are two kinds of aircraft controls. The Deperdussen wheel on a stick type, and the pure stick invented by a man named Joyce. So you have a Joyce stick or a Dep wheel.
And now people think it’s the happy stick.
But good article
"Joy" is more an attempt to put a positive spin on that cackling nervous laugh.
She's filled with joy and wants to spread it around. Yeah, that's the ticket.

Exactly
Someone said JOY stands for Jokes on You.
You may not understand how hate works for haters.
Yes, they are angry people inside. However, violence, destruction, and vengeance bring them joy.
So they may go around hateful, spiteful, and mean (which they generally have to conceal in order to operate in open society), but that doesn’t mean they don’t thoroughly enjoy power. They don’t just have a need for it. It brings them peaks of joy when they can exercise it.
The Dems. are blinded from reality by their own hatred.
The country has a lot of ignorant people, walking around like chickens with their heads cut off.
War = Peace.
Joy = Hate
Yes. Kamala’s maniacal laughter was a big negative personality trait. It hid her panic at being exposed as a dope. Hillary had the same tic. To explain this strange behavior her laugh was described as being joyful. The joy meme took on a life of its own because Democrats were happy to be rid of the Biden carcass at the DNC. In reality Democrats are miserable, greedy, jealous, selfish people.
This administration has imposed misery on the American people with inflation, censorship, stupid wars with massive deaths, out-of-control illegal immigration, lawfare, child mutilation, toxic chemtrails, food supply obstruction, 9 month + abortions, imploding national debt…
We actually have more than one person in this country for whom this is joy and wants more?
If you walk into a meeting of the DNC base and announce that under everyone’s chair is a cookie — the subpar IQ base will clap their little hands and cheer.
This is how you entertain bozos. It has worked since the morons who still think Roosevelt2 saved the US quick listening to anyone who disagrees.
Yep.
