I’m sorry, this is more than “a caveat,” it’s actually the whole story.

I am not a political media strategist but nonetheless I feel pretty solid about this

I feel like the trick with Project 2025 is exactly the same as the WGA strike. little snippet screencaps going viral all over normie social media that make some shocking thing you had no idea about instantly digestible to anyone regardless of their information level or background

This!! Start with “they want to end no fault divorce, sell national parks, and ban porn” end with tax structure.

tom nichols—of all people???—just made a good point: you have to talk about P2025 in simple real people terms. not policy wonk terms.

The far right cope machine is already trying to manufacture a narrative about the massive loss the French fascists faced today. They are scared they can sense what’s coming to America and it’s not fascism. Popular fronts win and scare fascists. Keep them on the back foot they are weak and scared.

They’re already doing the birtherism again. Lol

If they do put Kamala Harris on the top of the ticket, I am prepared for a level of misogynoir unwitnessed since Rosa Parks sat down on that bus.

Man i have been saying for a minute that voters everywhere are rejecting fascist shit and it’s only the media that makes us think otherwise, but it’s nice to see that in play right now

A widely predicted victory for the far right in France has instead turned into a victory for the left *because people turned out in record numbers to vote.* Defeat is not inevitable and more progressive elected officials means more progressive policies.

In France, the left coalition comes in first, Macron second, the far-right third. The best way to defeat fascism is not centrism, it’s a strong left.

No one should mistake how unpopular the right wing’s actual policies are.

1) Polls have generally been favorable to Biden since the debate 2) liberals have been outperforming polls consistently, including the US since Dobbs 3) the media desperately wants a right wing theocracy because their ratings/subscriptions jumped the last time Trump was elected

Breaking news: The first projections after polls closed in France’s legislative election put a leftist alliance in the lead, as the populist, anti-immigration far right falls behind and performs far below expectations.

France election live updates: Left-wing bloc leads in results projectionswww.washingtonpost.com The populist, anti-immigration National Rally party had been hoping to install France’s first far-right government since World War II, with 28-year-old Jordan Bardella as prime minister.

Uhhh. I just reported a random racist comment on Facebook and these are now the options they gave me for what I was reporting. Hope someone is writing a dissertation or something about “seems like terrorism” because that is a very weird category and a lot to unpack. Who is that option for?

OK, so this week: - UK Tories wiped out (I know, I know) - Iran votes in a reform PM (I know, I know) - France does this Sometimes, folks, there are glimmers.

JUST IN: Polls closed in France. Exit polls show surprise: —Left coalition (New Popular Front) projected first. (!) —Far-right (RN) has lost its bid to take power. Anti-RN front appears to have worked very well. —No bloc close to majority. Follow this 🧵 for results and more:

Honestly I feel deflated seeing the response to “depiction of white Christian nationalism ascendant” be cracks about inbreeding, or glee at concentrating these people in rural communities so they can eat their own

The biggest issue with Biden coverage is that he’s now The Story, which means that most of the press is focused on The Story and not any of the context or consequences. If we were having a serious discussion about qualifications for presidency, age, and the two main candidates, I’d be fine with it.

If you're too cringe for Threads but not Bluesky what are we even doing as a society

Wow. @nytimes.com has closed their Threads account and left the platform after days of getting just shredded in the replies for their handling of Biden post debate. Now they're getting dog piled on Instagram for running from Threads.

NYT has gone full David Duke archive.is/zDuRR

The New York times literally running the 14 words in a piece on the print edition main page. “actually they just want to reclaim the values of Western civilization as they see it … with larger families and fewer immigrants” is a mainstreamed version of the 14 words. TNYT is back to its Nazi defense

Why is that man not afraid to show his face in public? It’s because his neighbors and the people in his community have let him down. Same feeling I got when I learned about dudes not giving their wife a Get www.weinbergerlawgroup.com/blog/divorce...

A man has been using Facebook to terrorize his ex and their children. He brags about it: “I want her to worry about who’s waiting on the corner.” But police do nothing and nobody seems to take it seriously. Chilling story from Stacy St Clair and Joe Mahr www.chicagotribune.com/2024/07/07/f...

about once a week, i have to explain to someone on the phone that the police have no obligation to do anything for you and, even if their refusal literally leads to your murder, the courts have been clear that there's no case to pursue

One of the most powerful quotes I've seen about how this happens to a country and how this pivotal historical moment in America feels.

I will bang this drum forever: in THEY THOUGHT THEY WERE FREE: THE GERMANS, 1933-45 Milton Mayer interviewed 10 ordinary Germans after WW2 to learn how fascism took hold. There was never a moment when everyone woke up:
