This is why it is an important political project to force lawyers, bankers and tech bros to work fewer hours. They *will* make a lot of money, and then use that money to influence politics, and influence it for the worse because, having never had the time to read a book, they are stupid and evil

There is a strong strain of this in the Indian left and it’s part of the reason we can’t fight fascism effectively at home.

The current regime took a week to abolish USAID, which is three times as old and was not in the news every day for brutalizing children

This is an appropriate model for Buzzweed listicles and TikTok vids. Not for a "reputable" news media source.

If you wait for the news to come to you, you'll get it last.
If you have no mission, there can be no objective.
If all you're chasing is engagement, all you'll make is bait.

They’re trying to run the Kilmar Abrego Garcia playbook with a five year old boy in a bunny hat because nobody can find peace if they embarrass the Trump administration publicly. Normal people didn’t like it with Garcia and they really aren’t going to like it for Liam.

American evangelicals fed on LEFT BEHIND are unable to recognize Trump as the Antichrist because he's not named John Rockies.

Briahna Joy Gray @briebriejoy Bbq isn’t time or labor intensive: chicken quarters, cover with lawry’s season salt and pepper. Put on grill and cover. Don’t move or poke. Flip half way. Three ingredients. Perfect chicken.

In to days discruse. BBQ dosent take time or labour.

Too fucked up for the land of Le Pedophile Raciste

I get that Occupy Wall Street was a formational experience for some people but it was a total and comprehensive failure, we’re now at peak oligarchy!

“Your plan of winning voters to your side pales in comparison to my strategy of living in a tent and complaining about liberals”

CBP shot this woman and then defamed her using every means at their disposal. In a just world they would have to turn their whole yearly budget over to her for punitive damages

utopia meme

society where the Liberals are the right wing of the Canadian spectrum and the NDP are the left:

Even the Gen Z protests in the Global South have been shaped by the fact that there is no ecology of leadership, to steal a phrase from Nunes

look, I'm a pretty easygoing person

but my response to "I don't *want* to live next to a multiplex!" is "no problem, we'll demolish your house and build a multiplex on top of it too"

DHS said that the woman CBP shot in the chest in Portland was “involved” in a gang shooting.

Her ~involvement~ was that suspected gang members sexually assaulted and robbed her.

Beware of ‘anti-woke’ liberals: they attacked the left and helped Trump win | Jan-Werner Müller So-called ‘reactionary centrist’ pundits proclaimed that there was a global ‘vibe shift’ in favor of the right. They were wrong

"The other iron law of reactionary centrism...is that only the left and liberals really have agency. The right just reacts – everything is always backlash, never a self-generated political project." www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

But a lot of people who have spent many years in other kinds of activism - activism that is generally far less effective than our networks have been - seem horrified that Minnesota moms and college students stumbled on a new model. They are rushing to assert themselves as the “true” organizers.

Two skeets that read: sorry maybe this is an unnecessary level of stating the obvious, but sometimes when someone says they don’t think puerto ricans are “american,” it isn’t an opportunity to do a little civics gotcha & tell them about the insular cases. they just mean they think real americans are white. i’m queasy at the self satisfied pronouncements of “actually puerto ricans ARE americans!” as if their status as colonial subjects is something they wanted or that benefits them or shields them from racism and the particular xenophobic violence of this moment. i don’t care who is “american,” anyway.

*raises hand timidly* Um...hi. I'm Puerto Rican, and I care? So do my Puerto Rican parents and sister? It's trivially easy to dismiss that sort of thing when "being American" isn't something they're trying to take away from you, with profound consequences.

And, we do *want* our citizenship.

The point of taxing billionaires—even more than revenue generation—is limiting the control that billionaires exert on the rest of the body politic. Frustrating founders' ability to control shit is a feature.

The thing that bothers me the most about the election doomering is that people are really overindexed on the the heavy boot stuff like “troops at polling places” that I’m not sure would actually suppress turnout and underindexed on the GOP just refusing to seat everyone.

Tom Hanks kicks ass as a financial crimes guy in Catch Me If You Can, it would make a great show

Reps 'being primaried from the left' and 'desperately trying to distinguish himself in a clowncar field' have stumbled upon something very good

the arrest of journalists in minneapolis, including don lemon, is more evidence that the only move the administration knows how to make is to use force, and does not know how to respond when that force is met with defiance and indifference.

Activating the anti-Wobbly, anti-Scandinavian socialist discourse from the 1910s Red Scare era in the Pacific Northwest. Rufo has clearly been mainlining some seriously high-grade, well-aged, artisanal American fascism from the deepest recesses of his historical cellar.

Habla la madre de Liam Conejo Ramos: "Yo presencié la escena desde la ventana, tenía miedo de que también me detuvieran" "Mi hijo Liam me decía: 'Mami, ábreme la puerta', estaba aterrorizada. Mi esposo me gritaba 'no abras la puerta' y no lo hice por miedo a que mí también me arrestaran y dejara solo a mi otro hijo. Al ...

The administration story is that Liam Ramos mother refused to take her son.

In actuality she was inside with another child. If she opened the door they would all be detained. She literally had to make Sofie’s choice.

I can’t.

This screenshot is going to end up in a history textbook someday as a defining image from this depraved, authoritarian government-by-poster.

He had to sell most of his possessions to pay the women he slandered. That has left him with one yellow leisure suit he acquired in 1972.

The NFL knows it's going to be around after this administration, and that when you're as massive as the league is, all that's really going to happen when you don't do what they want is a bunch of empty talk and tantrums on podcasts

Lot of other institutions should have figured that out

Judicial warrants are already required

ICE has just decided among themselves that they arent required to follow the law

another journalist arrested
