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:

if you’re waiting for everyone around you to wake up, you’ll wait forever. this is how the people grinding our bones to make their bread WANT you to be. paralyzed, alienated & purposeless

oh wow, that’s so crazy dude. quick question, who are literally any of the people you’re talking about

"What did you do today?" "Well, I applied for 5 jobs and I'm now in the middle of a 4 hour YouTube clip of cocky boxers getting their comeuppance. Not a bad day, so far."

I'm only getting more profane with responses to spam texts. I plan on continuing the escalation.

I know being a grammar and spelling pedant is classist and shitty but I still want to beg the denizens of Facebook gardening groups (and possibly autocorrect in all its forms) to understand that “perennial” and “perineal” are two very different words.

HOUSTON (AP) — Judge orders liquidation of Alex Jones' personal assets to pay Sandy Hook debt, but throws out his company's bankruptcy.

A distraught Alex Jones declares himself a martyr b4 eating his gun on video. A new version of InfoWars declares it an AI hoax. Alex's family sues new InfoWars, wins huge judgment, collects damages, and is then forced to hand the money over to Sandy Hook families. Loop closed.

“Jones' influential Infowars show and website could be shut down by the end of the day, and his personal belongings — from his gun collection to his jewelry — could soon be auctioned to the highest bidder in something of a fire sale.” www.npr.org/2024/06/14/n...

Alex Jones faces day of reckoning over what he owes Sandy Hook familieswww.npr.org A judge is expected to tell Jones to sell off assets. But the families are likely to get only a tiny fraction of the nearly $1.5 billion in damages Jones owes for lies about the 2012 school shooting.

Agenda setting takes time. These pricks have plenty of runway.

Don't worry kids, it's just an awkward coincidence that major news outlets like @washingtonpost.com and @thedailybeast.bsky.social are replacing their top editors with right-wing propagandists before the most fraught election in American history.

Note also the sentence after the first highlighted section. Great replacement theory isn't a fringe belief limited to the pages of Stormfront anymore. Now it's orthodoxy throughout the right.

The Heritage Foundation is already declaring the 2024 election rigged beyond repair

Watched one—ONE—YouTube clip of John Waters on Bill Maher and now I'm getting Ben Shapiro, Jordan Peterson, and Lex Friedman suggestions. Algorithms can be very blunt tools.
