What's next? Dems lining up to support the war? The Senate voting 77-23 for the AUMF? Fuck this bullshit man we're in a time loop

let's be real Joe McCarthy would busy gooning his brains out on tiktok to care abt anticommunism

If Trump gets away with this then the freedom to protest is essentially dead in America

not beating the 4th term Bush allegations

this is beginning to feel like the beginning of the Ukrainian revolution in late 2013

Its a fine space race I just didn't think it'd be Chinese

Dementia Don

the girls are fightinggg

at least Xi is self-aware enough to let his prime minister mop up the economic mess after all the measures he pulled during Covid

welcome back 闭关锁国

you know what the craziest part of all this is? The only guy who took Trump's tariff plans seriously is Xi Jinping

hey look on the bright side we're going to get SO MANY social-democratic voters when this is over

Xi Jinping spends 20 trillion on nuclear power, achieves the Chinese century

he gave up a senate seat he could've kept for life to be cucked daily for 18 months. truly a masterful gambit

dime store Nixon

Dems should unironically run on hanging this bastard in 2028

American capital is woke and has consistently proven to be woke since the passage of the Civil Rights Act

DSA speed dating but for middle aged left-liberal academics

Season Five of Babylon Berlin is gonna be the Zeitgeist of the 2nd Trump administration. You heard it here first folks

and A Small Village in the Age of Extremes, also by @adamtooze.bsky.social. Love the guy

Babylon Berlin hits different after you've read The Wages of Destruction

Panik im Mittelstand part II

break the farm lobby, break the fossil fuel cartel (through production and price controls via Defence Production Act if necessary), break the car dealer monopoly, and break the AMA. Dems can gain and keep an eternal majority if they manage to do this

once democratic power has been surrendered to an autocratic force, either through fanaticism or exhaustion, who the individual think are 'the good ones' that should be exempt from repression no longer mattered. Popular sovereignty can only be surrendered once

Listened to a Donna Haraway lecture and God I forgot how woke academia was. I'm glad I was able actually listen to what she had to say and while I don't really care for the Plantationocene and multispecies justice it was morally coherent to a surprising degree

Xi would've been much happier if he was the last (Conserva)Dem governor of a small rural state like Iowa or Arkansas. He'd be great at taking ag subsidies and kissing babies at state fairs and getting picked as the director of the president's task force for small businesses by the Biden admin

They bring up Sun Tzu constantly cuz they haven't read the shit Xi reads (Goethe, Alexis De Tocqueville)

bring back East German punk as compensation for this madness

God I wish conservadems still existed. Save me Blanche Lincoln
