We generally underestimate the intelligence of birds and overestimate the intelligence of the right wing.

Toni Morrison Lists the 10 Steps That Lead Countries to Fascism (1995) Note: Toni Morrison's speech begins around the 38:30 mark. The term fascismΒ gets thrown around a great deal these days, not always with high regard to consistency of meaning.

This is a prophetically accurate list. We're at step all of them all at once.

#8. "Criminalize the enemy. Then prepare, budget for and rationalize the building of holding arenas for the enemy-especially its males and absolutely its children."

See if you understand this about ICE.

You still don't get it. If you in any way fund ICE, you're funding Trump's private army of blackshirts and guaranteeing election interference. Have someone with a spine brief you about Italian fascism.

I wouldn't trust statistics on any subject coming from this regime. That's not being conspiratorial, just minimally realistic.

Imagine if ICE went after and brutalized misdemeanor shoplifters in the same way. But it's not a police state because they're hunting immigrants.

From Melville’s Mardi:Think you there is no sensation in being...a world?What are our tokens of animation?That we move, make noise, have organs, pulses,& are compounded of fluids & solids.& all these are in Mardi[the world] as a unit.Its rivers are its veins;when agonized, earthquakes are its throes

Empty rhetoric when you keep voting to support fascism.

At least he's acknowledging he has only 1% of his mind left.

Quick question-- is it worse knowingly to be a venal pathological liar, to be so utterly braindead you actually believe these pathological lies, or not to know the difference?

This assertion is anachronistic. Luther's BB&B coupons would have been digital (and it's unclear whether he believed in redemptions).
