'In America the Struggle was befogged by the fact that the worst Fascists were they who disowned the word "Fascism" and preached enslavement to Capitalism under the style of Constitutional...American Liberty. For they were thieves not only of wages but of honor.'

How many of y'all have read 'It Can't Happen Here'? Cuz I feel like more people should have read this book, and I don't see ANYBODY bringing it up right now...

It's a dangerous week to be on the internet if you are a person who is terrified of anglerfish

AI can barely do easy shit like 'draw ppl without eight fingers and terrifying arms or teeth that aren't inexplicably merging into all the other ppl in the picture like a blob of sentient mimic goo' or 'write a simple essay better than a stoned college student could sans AI' so no I don't think so

I don't have a subscription so I guess I'll just wait until Ryan Murphy does a miniseries about it

I mean, sure, I have moral and ethical reasons for wanting to leave Instagram, of course. But I also kind of just want to leave because of the nail tapping...

Doesn't even matter if trump d*es in office at this point cuz JD and Elon would probably just Weekend at Bernie's him and the entire Republican party would be like "he looks great! They are definitely not holding him up. Libtard propaganda! His eyes are closed because he's praying!!!"

Idk I just can't get behind this mentality. I'm not saying that there aren't people who just went 'meh, at least he's not a WOC' and did not listen when told about P2025 but I TRULY believe that his base wants all the oppression and regression, most of them just won't own up to it when asked.

Patricia would love that but she's overly critical of young children and she will be personal in her critiques, so she will probably scar the children for life.

This is Blaine. Blaine may look serious but actually he's just boring. It looks like he's flying to something important, but actually he's flying away from a blue jay who wanted his spot on the tree. Blaine has a wife but he always forgets her birthday. And her name.
