In Defense of the MAGA Communism Strategy. By: Edward Liger Smith As a wrestling coach and athlete living in the Midwest I have plenty of interaction with MAGA supporters. My current wrestling coach, one of the greatest American Wrestlers of all-time, is a Trump...

Cover of "Too Loud a Solitude" by Bohumil Hrabal

Quite a beautiful little book

This from the senator who hopped to a standing ovation at Trump's war saber rattling in regard to Iran in his state of the union. There should be no rest for her. Enemy of the people to her bones.

Map showing snow water equivalent percent of the 1991-2020 median for the Western United States on April 10, 2026.

This is a frightening map, especially given the fact that this is normally near the peak in snowpack across the West. There are many far-reaching consequences from this historic snow drought, ranging from increasing risk of summer wildfires to major water concerns.

Greta Thunberg is right.

Democrat neoliberals behaving exactly like Republican neoliberals. It's almost like there's something repugnant in neoliberalism.

This is why I never, ever accept lectures about morality from the "blue no matter who" crowd. Absolutely disgusting, and this is only the first I saw of so many more.

"And, to conclude as one must at the end of a decades-long self-deception: All of you who, in November 1989—even for entirely understandable reasons—celebrated the fall of the Berlin Wall: this is what you were celebrating." ✊

Me too. I'm also 50. Triple whammy. Oof. Sucks to suck as the kids say.

Free us from feeling fascist. Free us from antifascism.

Yeah I share this guy a lot. He's got good stuff.

World war starting with Iran or world war starting with Russia, which is worse? How is this argument relevant? World war is the outcome. The pros and cons of where the conflagration starts is a philistine argument.

These people will extend more courtesy to a fucking piece of software than they will to an actual person who has different politics than them.

The bill has been approved. Israeli prisons will turn into guillotines for Palestinians. Hundreds will be executed in the next few weeks. 9300 hostages now in Israeli custody. Dark day for humanity. Unforgettable memory in the Palestinian cause history.

Israel’s holocaust of Palestinians reached a horrific new low today. No different than trains heading to gas chambers. Shame on everyone silent about this.

Israel has committed genocide in the Gaza Strip, UN Commission finds GENEVA – Israel has committed genocide against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, the UN Independent International Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory, including East Jerusalem, a...

beyond that, using their point of view of the primacy of the UN, the UN has declared the activity in Gaza a genocide, which makes Palestinian resistance definitively not terrorism end removes any legs from an argument of "Israeli right to defense" www.ohchr.org/en/press-rel...

I truly cannot believe that we are still having to argue against "Trump is a Putin puppet" statements in 2026

To respond to this sign: No the US constitution is not antifascist. If anything, it is protofascist.

No kings rallies make me so tired. Every single sign is a terribly ill informed and/or ignorant take. The amount of education needed in this country coupled with the militant anti-intellectualism to be overcome is daunting.

‘The theory of revisionism can therefore be defined in the following way. It is a theory of standing still in the socialist movement built, with the aid of vulgar economy, on a theory of capitalist standstill.’
—Rosa Luxemburg, “Reform or Revolution” (1907)

‘But the whole program, for all its democratic clang, is tainted through and through by the Lassallean sect's servile belief in the state, or, what is no better, by a democratic belief in miracles; or rather it is a compromise between these two kinds of belief in miracles, both equally remote from socialism.’ —Karl Marx, “Critique of the Gotha Programme”

"hadn't thought that far yet"... you don't say

Yeah these bitches all over the place down here. Smug in their "wokeness", brainless in their politics, and no awareness of their own putrid bigotry. South Carolina sucks (imho)
