The fact that Mamdani just seems like a cheerful normal guy who's policies are things like "we're going to tax second homes to fund pothole repairs" or whatever and yet this generates panicked responses like "This is basically Stalin's great purge turned up to eleven" is... telling. It tells things.
Incredible sequel. Edge of my seat!

I love it when Republicans accidentally say something socialist
We can argue about what these protests accomplish until the heat death of the universe but to me it boils down to a belief that there is inherent value in making the right realize that everyone hates them and that their whole movement is made up of cranks who wonât leave their houses.
Bluesky post by mattie lubchansky @mattielubchansky.com⏠"i think sometimes cis people truly have a hard time understanding that jk rowling is a living person actively using her wealth to fund the international assault on trans lives. sheâs not some Complicated Author we can have a spirited debate about separating from the art with!!!!!"
Harry Potter money directly harms trans people.
JK Rowling openly uses her profits to fund anti-trans groups. These groups are so successful in stripping trans people's rights largely due to being so well funded.
There is a direct line from money spent on Harry Potter to trans people being harmed.
BUT. WE. MUST. BE. RESPECTFUL. TOWARDS. CHARLIE. FUCKING. KIRK!!!!!!!!!
The latest episode of Philosophy Tube is about conversion therapy, why itâs still legal in the UK, and the ways the British government is implicated in it making it NHS policy.
Proud to expose this stuff â

This is true, however I think Putin has also done bad things, so let's not praise him uncritically
It is *fascinating* to me how quickly some people have gone completely from âwe all must work in the office! human collaboration is vital and only happens in person!â to âI can replace all these pesky people with chatbots!â Definitely some commentary there about our society and who gets to choose.
the last few times iran has accepted a ceasefire, the US and israel have taken the opportunity to restock their weapons and then surprise attack iran again. "there's zero point in engaging in diplomacy with us any more" is what that strategy teaches
OCASIO-CORTEZ STATEMENT ON TRUMP'S COMBAT OPERATIONS IN IRAN "The American people are once again dragged into a war they did not want by a president who does not care about the long-term consequences of his actions. This war is unlawful. It is unnecessary. And it will be catastrophic. "Just this week, Iran and the United States were negotiating key measures that could have staved off war. The President walked away from these discussions and chose war instead.President Trump flippantly acknowledged the possibility of American casualties, stating "that often happens in war.' "Mr. President: this was not an inevitability. This is a deliberate choice of aggression when diplomacy and security were within reach. Stop lying to the American people. "Violence begets violence. We learned this lesson in Iraq. We learned this lesson in Afghanistan. And we are about to learn it again in Iran. Bombs have yet to create enduring democracies in the region and this will be no different. "In moments of war, our Constitution is unambiguous: Congress authorizes war. The President does not. I will do my part to uphold our Constitution by voting YES on Representatives Ro Khanna and Thomas Massie's War Powers Resolution. Every member of Congress must join us in rejecting this aimless war.
My statement on President Trumpâs combat operations in IranâŹď¸
anyone choosing this moment to be all "here's what you get with republicans: bombs in the middle east" needs to grow up rapidly, considering what the last dem admin did in gaza & their current support for trump's actions right now. this is what you get with (wholly bipartisan) american imperialism

One reason I keep saying that Trump's departure won't end our fascism problem is that every Republican presidential aspirant (even those who 10 years ago were "normal") are talking like twitter nazis now

You may never have heard C-3PO rap in an official Star Wars video, so it's time to remedy that. đľ

It remains to be seen how the Venezuelan people will respond to a more overt CIA presence in the country post-Maduro. For years, Maduro cast the CIA as a convenient boogey man, repeatedly accusing the agency â without evidence â of attempting to topple his regime as he clung to power despite US opposition. Now, the CIA has helped supplant Maduro and is poised to help actively manage the Trump administrationâs dealings with Venezuelaâs new leadership.
Absolutely incredible sequence from CNN.
"Maduro was a paranoid lunatic always lying about the CIA trying to overthrow him. Anyways, now that the CIA has overthrown him..."
I have spent my entire adult life being lectured by Republican politicians and conservative legal movement types about how important it is to preserve the sacred constitutional right to self-defense of *specifically this person* and then secret police murdered him in the street
Definitely. There is nothing that could ever make ICE trustworthy in any capacity. Abolishment and prosecution of these murderers and the genocidal government that supports and protects them is the only way forward. A second Nuremberg is not enough.
This time there's just no plausible deniability. I mean, there wasn't with Renee Good either. But they had an excuse they made up then. What are they gonna say now? "He resisted"? Yeah sure but there were like ten people holding him down and he was still shot.
Abolish ICE. Down with the fascists.
