The language police charge against the left/liberals is yet another one those fraudulent fascist fabrications, like being “too woke,” that serves to maintain dignity degrading systems and practices. It’s cheap and harmful, and I wrote a bit about it. badfaithtimes.com/you-are-with...
Bait and Platonic.
A plan, a sales pitch, and determination is all the right-wing has ever had, and they've been able to successfully sell lies, vulgarity, and oppression, all things that nobody wants. Apply it to democracy and pluralism, and see what happens!
We must all ChatGPT (talk about Global Pedocon Theory).
Politics equals values. We're encouraged to disconnect the two, so that supporting bad, even evil things won't stain our character, whether personal or national. When fash-techs drool over an existence minus politics, they mean one without values, where their money rules all, including you.
Anti-black animus has been the guiding principle of Trump’s entire life, personal and political. While *he’s* hardly made any effort to conceal it, our media and political class have often stepped in on his behalf.
Godless stooges who nonetheless operate as if God is wholly on their side.
The shortcoming of the current era usually centers around the left's proximity to "woke-ism," a particularly nonsensical crutch.

Zuck pivoting to X-Ray glasses.

"You let somebody into office." What an absolutely obnoxious, galling charge to hurl at your voters, all while taking the demoralizing actions of shaking hands with a war criminals and voting for Trump nominees.

If you buy for a second that anything torments Tucker beyond the fact that he's not the king of a Nazi state, you're a fool, or some media ghoul.
Every minute spent trying to put space between yourself and "wokeness" (precisely what Beshear is doing here), is precious time, intellectual capacity, and moral force wasted on total BS, instead of directed against fascism. It's part of a massive fraud: badfaithtimes.com/you-are-with...
A company whose bottom line depends upon the prevailing sentiment of white people, rich and poor alike, to be, “yeah, we are better than THEM.”
You don’t make mistakes, you make gargantuan errors that empower and enrich Elon Musk. You make musktakes.
Hopefully they inspire.
Otherwise non-radicalized people of privilege often make common cause with fascists because maintaining priority access to opportunity, and ease of absolution for wrongdoings, loom large in their decision making.
It is foundational to America's existence as a thriving democracy and its place as a global partner that Trump's rampant criminality is clearly and meticulously expressed in the historical record, and that his punishment is severe enough for the entire world to see.
This is all true, and above and beyond that, Booker and his ilk put these performances toward cheap and easy self-absolution for their past, present and future political mistakes. *They,* the rich and the well-resourced, were failed in their telling. Gross, and pathetic.
Bottoms up to the iAnus.
Only the darkest paths flow from here, and I simply do not see a (much needed and warranted) all-hands on deck action from the Democrats to destroy the reputations of any Republican leader spreading such bile.
Murder on the high seas is a recurring, nearly normalized action of the American state. It's tempting to think that this sort of thing won't seep into our collective morality, but that would be wrong.
Wanting the constant capacity to surveil people and places is a terrible instinct, and the fact that most of us naturally recoil at the prospect gives me hope.

May I suggest that any time a Dem leader has the urge to chastise their voters for using “woke” language or for not being obsequious enough, they instead outline a plan for a national demolition day, when all monuments built in his (dis)honor will be destroyed.
