Loathe thy neighbor: Elon Musk and the Christian right are waging war on empathy Trump’s actions are irreconcilable with Christian compassion. But an unholy alliance seeks to cast empathy as a parasitic plague

I tried to write about empathy and ended up writing about fascism again

BlueSky isn't perfect, but over on Twitter, my deleted account is being overrun by blue-check climate denier bots who can't do better than act like 3rd-grade bullies. So, yeah, life is better here -- at least the climate deniers are actual people.

White, Jesus-Loving Christians Need to Defeat Christian Nationalism I didn’t want to be doing this.

Christian nationalism isn’t a Black problem.
It isn’t a Muslin problem.
It’s not an Atheist problem,
not a Jewish problem,
or an immigrant problem.
Christian nationalism is a White-Christians-living-in-America-who-care-about-the-teachings-of-Jesus, problem.

Thanks to Elon Musk and Donald Trump, Republicans cut $190 million for pediatric cancer research from the funding bill.

Congrats to DOGE on their first victory.

This is sadly what the voters chose, and now we all have to experience the pain of that decision.

A lot of folks are giving up in advance. Capitulating before a single skirmish.

Well, not this old warrior. I’ve seen much worse from the U.S. government in my day. I’m concerned for our country, but not a bit scared of these miscreants. I’m ready to do my part.

Who’s with me?
