I’m pissed that I’m forced to know who Charli XCX is

You don't have to judge Columbus by the standards of today. His tenure as governor of Hispaniola was so horrific that he was dragged back to Spain in chains to answer for his many crimes.

Plus he never set foot on any land that would ever be a part of the United States of America.

This sounds hella fun

Besides the obvious critique, this guy is so corny

I am having a hard time swallowing this new chorus of “I can’t believe they got this far” - girl, what? They spent the first term testing/destroying as many guardrails as they could, then they didn’t get in trouble for it, nothing got reinforced or fixed, a lot of the protofascism was maintained…

Everyone has yelled at the left for years for living in various echo chambers but NO ONE is more utterly shut off inside their absolutely insane bubble than the far-right crackpots running the country.

the president of the united states wants to use the american military to kill american citizens on american soil. that's the whole story!

TFW people who couldn't organize a lunch for three people in a mall food court scream into the listserv about what everybody else should be doing.

Only an administration intent on committing war crimes in the present and future would stoop to calling Wounded Knee a "battle" rather than what it truly was: a massacre of over 250 Lakotas, mainly women, children, and the elderly. 1/

BREAKING NEWS: National security advisors are looking into the feasibility of outlawing escalators nationwide.

Folks, I hate to break it to you but for national security reasons all the escalators will be removed. The moving walkways in airports will be allowed until an investigation can be completed

My god

Shit, wait until you see 10 thousand lightning bugs hug a guy

What a guy

When they say "unity," but they mean "capitulate."

incredibly rude

How are all of you this lame?! Like you’ve tried extra extra hard to be fucking losers. I don’t get it.

Disney/ABC have a responsibility to refuse to participate in corruption.

Kimmel must be reinstated. If Disney/ABC agree to this extortion then perhaps creatives + workers should consider collective action to push back. Same w/buying park + cruise tickets if they bow.

People have power. Ask Target

Hey, you’re a major disappointment

Weaponized unreality is about to crush people under its fully authoritarian weight

In the 2010s, this country's elites were thrown onto social platforms with everyone else and could finally read what we all think about them and it caused them so much psychic damage that they decided to destroy both the internet and democracy to make sure nothing like it ever happened again.

Repubs: Go away

Dems: Let’s do this in a bipartisan way.

Repubs: Go away AND die.

Dems: Ok, we can work with that

Dems to voters: Some of you may die.

This is precisely the problem, the refusal by centrist elites to differentiate between challenging ideas and debunked lies. It's not "challenging" to hear that black people are stupid or gay people are degenerates, it's just wrong.

It is genuinely humiliating as an America to have this sour, cowardly, narcissistic lout represent us and to know that so many Americans applaud conduct like this. Just deeply embarrassing.

When the government is deleting its own data that supports that the party in power is more dangerous and more violent than their opposition you should know that it’s not about truth it’s about narrative and the narrative ends in violence against their perceived enemies.

We are already starting to see the surrogate violence in reality with the apparent lynching of two black men over the last day and of coordinated bomb threat against HBCUs and other locations.

We are witnessing the death spasms of our reality in real time and the next part gets far more brutal

/2 Promoting civic ignorance is an absolutely central component of the project of Trumpism.

I explicitly told everyone to keep their root beer origins to themselves and look what happened
