If you're not specifically researching Nazis and hate movements, you really need to stop posting on X.

In particular, no D politician or progressive group should be on X now. Get the hell off. You endanger the people who come to see your posts there AND you expose yourself to Nazi propaganda.

As the laid off Middle East News Editor, I concur. Management eliminated the positions of every single staff correspondent and bureau chief in the Middle East.

Calling AI "slop" has been one of the most effective instances of the public rebranding a product and it pisses them off.

This is bar for bar the same messaging Nazi Germany used to demonize trans people. The Institute of Sexology was sacked and burned because of this narrative: that sexually perverted Jews were brainwashing good Germans into becoming queer/trans in order to weaken German culture.

Scene from Andor, Imperial propagandists talking about manufacturing public support for a genocide: edited on the last word. The propagandist says, with a smirk, "Hasn't there always been something slightly arrogant about the trans?"

I said it when we passed 600K deaths: America is built on absorbing the human costs of its actions in order to grow capital. As long as the money continues to flow, so will the blood.

The only time I've seen Europe take an even slightly defensive posture is when Trump's economic policy was tanking their markets. I can't shake the sense that, so long as the money keeps flowing, so will the blood.

I'm a billion percent sure that fascism would go away if Nazis just realized they can jerk off without feeling shame about it. Sometimes you stumble into a porn server on Discord that isn't run by queer people and realize how much of that ideology is just sexual repression leaking out in other ways.

This isn't even a poly thing but I'm so glad to be in a loving poly relationship where sex positivity and healthy communication are the norm.

When you really do the work to rid yourself of puritanical thinking (it's a foundational part of American culture; we all have it by default), relationships and sex get so much better.

Yeah, they're a bit concerned about their ability to get HRT there, which is not a problem here. @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social please chat with some of the people who worked on CO's trans sanctuary laws because NYC has the largest trans population in the country per cap and they need these guarantees!

Maybe if Iran does turn out to have a nuke and uses it on a major population center? Like what if Berlin or London gets flattened? Is that anything?

What would it actually take for the rest of the world to stand up to the US in a significant way? I'm genuinely asking because it kind of seems like there's no red line.

Not that I've been tracking everything he does but I have been a little disappointed that his governance is a lot more business-as-usual than his campaign. I'm planning to move back next year with my trans partner, but here in CO is still better for trans people legally speaking than NYC so...

I often wonder what their plan is if a society shattering cataclysm actually happens. Is your private army going to follow your orders once the dollar tanks and their checks no longer clear?

A weird number of them took it further and have decided it means that *anything* that gets called antisemitic must actually be anti-Zionism

It must be nice to be a sociopath, because all the new products are for you. The smart glasses will give you that woman’s address, the betting apps will finally let you make bank on war crimes.

Not in my experience. And in the edge cases where it works you're usually trading speed because you're on a less efficient server.

I don't hate Marathon enough to cancel my preorder, nor do I love it enough to main it. I think it'll probably get a few hours of play per week. Hopefully once the launch is over and any day one issues are ironed out, there will be a renewed development effort on Destiny 2 (and 3, fingers crossed).

Proton has been a mixed bag for me. Mail and Pass are great, but the latter fails to appear on at least half of password fields on Android. The VPN is a bit disappointing, since the static IP range it uses has allowed a large number of sites to block connections on that range, forcing me to unmask.

I've been saying that social media has turned a lot of people into peasants with indoor plumbing and Wi-Fi. We're bringing back blood libel and medical superstition, and I'd be shocked if bloodletting and leeches weren't far behind.

A lot of people heard, "Anti-Zionism is not antisemitism," and took it to mean that no expression of anti-Zionism can ever be antisemitic.

Y’know, until now I’ve been saying that as a Jew, I don’t think he’s actually a Nazi, I just think he’s an edgelord asshole who thought it’d be β€œedgy” to β€œp0wn the libs” by sporting an SS Totenkopf.

But I’m starting to think that maybe, just maybe…
