Growing up I used to think the theologically conservative Christians were more correct than the liberal ones and that was why Christianity and Religion was bad
But then I learned more about the bible from an academic perspective and think the theological conservatives are the weaker ones

"Why don't Americans-" The ruling class of America has intentionally disempowered its citizens spread across 3,000+ miles of land and then funded the police force as an occupying army that happily murders anyone who opposes them and imprisons whoever is left as slave laborers. So phone calls it is

I don't think Kamala Harris would've threatened to commit genocide in Iran on a random Tuesday morning a month after starting an unwinnable war with them for no reason
in persian culture, telling someone "we're going to kill you all" is considered deeply offensive
:/
Miss me with that "right wing capture" of the supreme court when it rules 8-1 to kill trans kids
Had to check the source
1. If you exploit the labor of others in your enterprise youre a capitalist
2. Many small business owners aspire to become big business owners
Please actually read Marx
Added a new batch of accounts to this list

1. When I learned that if gender is self-identified, and not based on ones genitals or assigned sex at birth,
2. Until that point the only thing that defined me as a boy *was* my penis
3. So, by definition, I am not a boy
I wouldn't have thought about it since if society would let me.
(1/2) I can't speak for everyone else but for me, my gender identity being non-binary is actually quite simple:
Technically if we brought all airports into public ownership then it wouldn't be privatising airport security 😉
Rules for thee but not for me is a core tenet of fascism. This is not a "gotcha"
If you get pushback from admin saying they're too controversial then you can use that to get them to cancel the right winger. Now instead of looking like a member of a leftist cult, you've forced the university into looking like the censorous ones.
I've been thinking about what I'd do if I was still in uni and my school invited a right wing speaker, and how instead of trying to get them shut down I'd try and get socialist speakers invited to speak.
This is a better rhetorical strategy for the left to take because:
Left unity shouldn't mean we all pretend to agree on everything until after the revolution, it should mean that we don't attack each other the way we attack liberals or right wingers.

The Secretary of Defense keeps going out there and saying the United States is waging a Christian holy war and it is somehow not registering as a career- and administration-ending scandal
The Pentagon is seeking $200 billion in additional funds for the Iran war, a sizable amount that is certain to be met with questions from Congress, which would need to approve any new money.

Sanae Takaichi is basically Japanese Margaret Thatcher, btw, so dont think she's cool just cause of this
NEW: Denver's Mayor announces the city will remove Cesar Chavez's name from a park and an annual celebration. Denver will instead mark March 31 as Si Se Puede Day, a nod to UFW co‑founder Dolores Huerta's famous phrase.
Has anyone ever considered that it doesn't matter if God is real, if He actually believes all the things in the Bible or Quran?
If I show up to heaven and they're like, "about all that premarital sex and rock music" I'll just be like, "Okay, about all the kids you gave cancer."
Screenshot of a Vox article header in the Policy section. The headline reads in bold, "The fight over transgender rights in America has entered a new phase." Below it, the subheadline says, "The policy fight is moving well beyond sports and youth medicine. The political response hasn't caught up." The article is by Rachel Cohen Booth and dated March 17, 2026, 6:00 AM EDT.
I am going to become the joker.
We've been screaming from the rooftops that this was never about sports or trans youth healthcare. Instead, we were ignored and browbeaten by a bunch of idiot centrists who took the concerns of people who want us eliminated in good faith.

"It's just green for St. Patrick's Day," I assure the horrified lab worker drawing my blood.
"But he refused to take a clear stance on unification so actually he's bad"
Meanwhile half the voters who watch this will be hearing some of this for the first time in their lives.
I feel like I'd heard another director had wanted to adapt others?

NYT on Feb. 13, 2026: The visit also demonstrated the relative foreign policy inexperience of Ms. Ocasio-Cortez, who has made a few overseas trips since taking office but does not sit on any House committees devoted primarily to world affairs. She struggled at times to formulate succinct answers at a nighttime panel session, during which she was asked probing and specific questions about how to respond to international crises. Questioned about whether the United States should send troops to defend Taiwan if China invaded the island, she stalled for roughly 20 seconds before offering a substantive response. “I think that, uh, this is such a, a — you know, I think that — this is a, um — this is of course, a, uh, a very longstanding, um, policy of the United States,” Ms. Ocasio-Cortez said, before saying that the country should try to avoid reaching that point with China in the first place.
NYT on March 16, 2026: On Monday, Mr. Trump claimed that “numerous countries have told me they’re on the way,” noting that President Emmanuel Macron of France would most likely help in the Strait of Hormuz and was an eight out of 10. “Not perfect, but it’s France,” he said. Others are not demonstrating sufficient enthusiasm for his demands, he said.
Last month the NYT said AOC "struggled" to give an answer on Taiwan and quoted her with "uhs" and "ums" to make her look stupid
Yesterday talking about Hormuz Trump claimed he's heard from "numerous countries" and said "uh" four times. The NYT deleted the "uhs" and paraphrased him to look smarter:
