Difficult to emphasize just how much a generation of kids has been taught that being dishonest, superficial, and narcissistic is the pathway to attention and therefore success

Mockler: The neocon boomers surrounding Trump are mortgaging my generation's future for another very expensive Middle Eastern war. We tried this with Iraq. We tried this with Afghanistan. It left us in trillions and trillions of dollars in debt.

It me.

Lack of accountability ever since Nixon is how we got to fascism. There must be consequences for these fuckers.

Every time a woman runs for president I hear that she’s too emotional and unstable to make wartime decisions, unlike the men in charge who make really reasonable decisions like bombing kids to death, starting water wars, and poisoning the entire planet

Americans aren't facing a democratic collapse. We’re living in its aftermath | Eric Reinhart The US was an oligarchy well before Trump’s first term. Recognizing this reality is essential to building a true democracy

"The US was an oligarchy well before Trump’s first term. Recognizing this reality is essential to building a true democracy."

Finally, a mainstream news article that correctly identifies reality. It really is that hard to break through capitalist propaganda.

Exhibit Infinity proving that this country could easily support universal healthcare, parental leave, more vacation, free public education, public transportation, and so much more. If it only chose to do so. Instead, corporations and billionaires get welfare while avoiding paying taxes.

While Cost of Living Soars and Healthcare Taken Away, Trump Spending $1 Billion Per Day in War of Choice With Iran | Common Dreams "We can't afford to keep our hospitals open, but we can afford a billion dollars a day to bomb Iran?"

Thanks I hate it.

Sorry I'm not more open-minded about LLMs, it's just some fucking maniacs shoveled out a bunch of useless bloatware featuring that technology, did not give me any chance to opt out, reorganized the entire economy around it, zeroed out gains made by green energy, and made it impossible to buy RAM

Spain’s MEP Irene Montero speaking to reporters

Irene Montero: No woman has ever been freed by American bombs or illegal aggression — Not in Syria. Not in Iraq. Not in Afghanistan. It will not happen in Iran either

When they want to sell their oil wars, their wars for profit, their imperial wars — they hide behind women’s rights to justify them

Less traffic, less noise: Green axes cut noise levels in cities The implementation of green axes and the reduction of motorized traffic in cities is effectively consolidating itself as a strategy to significantly lower environmental noise levels. A study conducted...

Hold on there egghead. You're telling me that planting trees is a good thing?!

Fuck capitalism.

A condensed version of the US military's anti-fascism handbook from WWII.

The US owns whatever it wants to own, and takes whatever it wants to take. Fuck your national sovereignty.

America’s enduring appetite for Trump's deportation cruelty Polls show that tens of millions of Americans still support ICE and the president's mass deportations

Research has shown that self-identified conservatives possess what social psychologists describe as the “dark triad” of personality traits—Machiavellianism, narcissism and psychopathy—and to lack empathy. These people must be prevented from wielding power.

Trump sends Supreme Court clear message: I am the law The president views the nation's highest court as a rubber stamp, not a co-equal branch of government

We can bemoan the crumbling of American democracy all we like. But there can be no rebuilding it without a restoration of the rule law and genuine accountability for the lawlessness of even the most powerful people in government and the private sector.

Anyone Else Have Those Weird Dreams Where Sobbing Future Generations Beg You To Change Course? The human subconscious is such an interesting thing. No matter how much you think you’ve got it figured out, it’ll always spit out the most random stuff. Take me, for example. After coming home from a...

I know that things can feel helpless for us average Americans right now.

So just keep doing the things we CAN do.

Speak out. Call your members of Congress. Protest. Get organized. Donate to candidates. Register voters. And vote at every opportunity, primary or general, local or state or federal.

Even reasonably trustworthy sources can be subtly misleading. Everybody needs to level up their media literacy skillset.

I will never understand how the boots of rapist fascists could possibly taste so good.

"We expect casualties with something like this. We have three, but we expect casualties, but in the end it’s going to be a great deal for the world." —Donald Trump, 28 February 2026, regarding American deaths resulting from his illegal war with Iran

"A great deal for the world." Let that sink in.

Capitalism and war have always been boon companions.

It’s either socialism or barbarism. There is no third way.

If the United States is going to go around the world causing regime changes, we should practice here first.

I hate those stupid useless fucks with the heat of a thousand white-hot suns. Fascism-enablers are more dangerous than actual fascists.

Fascists don’t have empathy. They’re sociopaths.
