The best tweet of the day… no, the month. I really didn’t know that the neo-Nazis had these many sympathizers. If you are still wondering how millions of people perished in concentration & death camps, well, it starts with people like this guy. Yes, I’m saying it & meaning it quite literally.

Oh, wow. Truly good and inspiring news.

BREAKING NEWS: Voters turned out in numbers not seen in decades to stop the far-right National Rally from taking power in the French National Assembly. Polls predicted a first-place finish for National Rally, which instead came in third in initial results as polling stations closed.

As an overweight bald white guy in his 40s who is one of the least cool people on the planet, I'm still cooler than that monstrosity.

Am I cooler than the least cool thing imaginable? Yeah, probably.

I only just noticed one of the other guys has a mother fucking ventriloquist dummy with him. It seems almost impossible that would be the second thing you'd notice in a photo.

There is a 7 foot tall guy behind Rishi Sunak who likely ran for office just to be able to hold a printed out L behind him during his concession speech.

"Independence from Britain" is the world's most celebrated holiday.

"you're not American why do you care about the 4th of July" mate I'm Indian, any day someone got the Brits to fuck off back to their country is a national holiday for me

very much the words of a man who has never once worried, not for a moment, that he would be outside the law

More anti-democratic thoughts from 2018 the NYT allowed this writer to exclude from his current piece. Delivered with an air of detached irony, as if he miiight be joking or exaggerating. But is he?

Incremental change looks tiny when judged by all the things that need to be done, but for the people you do house and the kids you protect, the difference is life-changing. That matters. Those people matter.

If you are going to be protesting anywhere near the Republican National Convention, write the NLG number on your stomach in Sharpie (not your arm: cops use that as "evidence of premeditation"). They are fucking superheroes. Give them money to keep being superheroes: www.nlg.org/donate/

I know this is a boring point to make but it fucking kills me that one side is saying "we'll bring back 12 hour days, child labor, and Jim Crow" and the other side is saying "you can continue to grill on Sundays with your neighbors, who might look different to you" and it's a 50/50 split

This is your enemy. His pinned post is unhinged racist trash, but he is serious about the agenda

He's right, and he's not downplaying the risk, the danger, or the stakes. He's just correctly stating that the only thing for it is to show up and figure it out, whatever that looks like for you and yours.

Things are pretty fucked up and the future is uncertain — probably the worst in my lifetime (perhaps excepting 1969 before I can remember). When it’s like that, I like to think about my grandparents and what they faced and got through with the Great Depression and WWII. /1

idk it just seems to me that laws, like tech, should be created with the question "what would the worst person i know be able to do with this power" in mind and it's truly incredible how much this opinion fails at that basic task

John Roberts must be the most neurotypical person in existence because the immunity ruling reads like someone who has never had a single “but what if…???” anxiety spiral in his life

“I voted blue but things still suck” is a reason to do more than just vote, not a reason to vote for something demonstrably worse (or sit out the chance to keep Demonstrably Worse out of office)

I don’t know what you expect the presidential election to accomplish exactly but it’s not a miracle drug to fix all problems. It’s just oxygen to keep breathing while the real work happens on the ground. That work is a heck of a lot harder to do without air.

Keeping Trump out of the White House isn’t the only thing that needs doing and it isn’t enough to solve all problems facing the country & world but if it isn’t done then all those problems get exponentially worse in ways I don’t even know how to express and it scares me when people pretend otherwise

Yep. One of the biggest blind spots people have is assuming that underneath, others share the same basic values as them. They have trouble imagining an ideology that is completely misaligned with theirs.

For the first time in decades, the RNC won't allow cameras/media into its platform meeting. Further evolution of the Trump-era RNC's aversion to the press - they see only downsides for transparency, though this hasn't prevented damaging stories when reporters dig in www.semafor.com/article/07/0...

In a shift, the RNC will decide its platform behind closed doorswww.semafor.com The decision to skip the usual cameras comes as the party is in a difficult debate over abortion.

They changed the system by using votes. They voted for school board, they voted for stupid house elections, they voted for state AG's. Then those AG's, those board members, those people threatened to do massive changes, and only got a little change, then another, then another. We let them.

There's this weird thing happening when someone says "I'm voting for Biden because I want us to still have elections long after he's dead" and people equate that with "Biden is awesome and I agree with his actions regarding Gaza"

ok but seriously nut up. nobody here loves biden. I’d rather vote for a sentient captcha machine that electrocutes my eyeballs every time I tag all the bicycles and it thinks I missed a fuckin train wheel. but that’s what we got and if you want to live in a fantasy I have no time for your ass

Gavin Newsom would drown his mother to be president so the fact that he’s not open to any ballot-overhaul schemes should tell you a lot about whether that has a ghost of a chance of making him president

That “Black jobs” seems to be the main thing from the debate to go actually viral on social media should give certain columnists some pause about their pulse on the campaign.
