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.

Why, NO, renegade pseudo-Dems, I don’t want your reality TV fako primary. We have a perfectly good candidate and a strong 25th amendment. Stop fucking around, poseur-Dems.
Hey you guys wanna see the dumbest plan to replace Biden possible? www.semafor.com/article/07/0...

Being a good citizen, being a good neighbor, being a helpful and attentive student, being a good community member, even what was once considered being a good Christian - all of these things are antithetical to the right wing movement

sure dude — just like Netanyahu had nothing to do with this think tank or it’s plan for the “complete ethnic cleansing of Gaza”
even trump’s campaign staff (i assume he didn’t write this) knows that the reactionary, authoritarian agenda that’s project 2025 is going to be unpopular with the average voter.

Just finished Chwe’s “Jane Austen, Game Theorist) (h/t @scientificdiscovery.dev) which I very much enjoyed. The book explains how Austen essentially teaches game theory in her novels.>

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:

Women in Idaho protest the strict abortion bans during the 4th of July parade in Sandpoint, Idaho. Shame on Idaho for treating women with such low regard. Vote for Democrats if you would like to see our government work for ALL of us.

It's not as if things are "broken," no matter what CNN says. It's that right wing people are deliberately making it this way all over because they hate humanity and everything good about humans, and they don't love anything.

The last few years have shown just how utterly dysfunctional society is and how that’s reflected in our politics. Now, in the past week, that has been emphasized by an inability to have anything approaching actual conversations about power and the myriad crises we face.

I used to tell my children it was rude to point and laugh. Then Cybertrucks started showing up

just saw our first cybertruck in public & my kid audibly yelled "Oh my God it's so ugly!" then we walked around it exclaiming about how terrible it is... then we noticed the driver was sitting in the front 😂

As a side note, this is John McEntee, Trump's Director of White House Personnel and the primary architect of Project 2025. On Tik Tok he said he gives counterfeit bills to homeless people so they will be arrested when they go to spend them.

"exposing how $77 million in federal welfare funds went to athletes, cronies and pet projects, she and her editor... Sued for defamation by the state’s former governor"
Mississippi is the poorest state in the US. Even though the state gets federal welfare funds, it is difficult to get welfare. The money was all getting stolen, and they got away with it. Now the journalists who exposed the story are facing a lawsuit and jail. www.nbcnews.com/investigatio...

Rakesfall by @vajra.me : dizzying, phantasmagoric. Wonderfully written, so intelligent. Wit and heartbreak and a long meditation on oppression and the ending of same. To be devoured, but to be savored more; the prose is superb. Rakesfall should be a finalist for every award there is.
