Earlier this year, I met a Croatian journalist who was in the US doing a piece on America’s politics and I asked her what surprised her. And she said, β€œWhat you all call the far left is just being normal.”

even when far rightwingers are having an extremely positive experience on all fronts they’re still able to hallucinate a situation where they’re the victim

It’s called hyper-normalization. It’s a dissociative reaction meant to shield you as a safety mechanism, but ultimately helps whatever is attacking you. Think closing your eyes as a train comes rather than jumping out of the way. Fascism will succeed if we continue to hyper normalize its presence.

One thing we have learned is that homelessness in America was 100% a choice.

If we can stand up housing for detainees all over America in a matter of months, we could have done so for the homeless.

We demanded far far too little from our Democratic leaders. We should have demanded they do more.

The Soviet Union figured out how to eliminate homelessness in the 1930s. It’s been 100 years and capitalism hasn’t solved it and liberal thinkers treat it like a mystery.

That probably means something about the actual solution but I can’t use my brain lest I accidentally escape capitalist realism

The disparity btwn what’s actually happening in Los Angeles and the way it’s being mischaracterized is one of the biggest stress tests of modern media in recent memory. Botted socials, AI, old clips, declining literacyβ€”it’s like seeing a broken emergency response system hit by a storm.

A warden says to a member of the press "since drag brunch is so popular, we've started doing it for our death row inmates' last meals." A drag stands awkwardly next to a sullen death rown inmate. She sits against the wall and smokes a cig as hig head lowers. He says "please hold me. I'm so scared." She says "the warden specifically told me I can't do that."
