Fascists don’t have empathy. They’re sociopaths.

Palantir Sues Swiss Magazine For Accurately Reporting That The Swiss Government Didn’t Want Palantir If you run a company whose entire value proposition is the ability to see patterns, predict outcomes, and connect dots that others miss, you’d think someone in the building might have flagged…

Tech Bros think they are ENTITLED to your money and your data.

If you’re a Democrat in Congress who is considering supporting Trump’s illegal war in Iran, please consider self-immolation instead.

Scouting America to reinstate ban on trans children to appease Pentagon Former Boy Scouts cave to Pete Hegseth as he laments move from ‘focus on God as the ruler of the universe’

Fuck you, Scouts.

We need regime change here.

Then what happened?

It Can Now Be Plainly Said: Trump Is Planning a November Coup d’État During the campaign, it was kind of hard to picture the specifics of how Trump might pull such a thing off. Alas, it’s getting less hypothetical by the week.

Remember: laws do not apply to fascists. There will always be a "state of emergency" that they can declare to grab however much power they want.

Stansbury: “The vast majority of co-conspirators that were investigated were the women who assisted in Epstein's crimes—

None of the male perpetrators who committed rape & SA, including potentially the president who’s accused in the files, have been called to testify & to account for what happened”

If America was a country filled with people where the contents of the Epstein files could take down a president we wouldn’t be in this situation to begin with. He was elected AFTER access Hollywood, child separation, covid, being found liable for sexual abuse etc.

The Democratic Party wants you to think there’s nothing they can do as the minority party, something the GOP has proven false over and over and over again.

These Dems are complicit in fascism.

The ever-expanding Ellison empire will help Trump - but also as @972mag.com points out: “A major Republican donor and political ally of Trump, the Oracle co-founder is also a major supporter of Israeli causes.”

Your necessary reminder that conservatives don’t actually have any principles. It’s only about obtaining and wielding power.

MAGA Billionaires Win Battle to Buy CNN and Turn It Trumpy A dramatic bidding war ended suddenly with Netflix giving up on trying to buy CNN’s parent Warner Bros. Discovery.

Fascism is only possible because capitalism demands it.

The United States government is currently covering up evidence the President sexually and physically assaulted a 13 year old girl and is demanding every AI company allow their products to be utilized for mass surveillance of Americans and autonomous weapons systems.

Not great!

News flash: Lying liars lie.

Fuck you, Kansas.

How America Chose Not to Hold the Powerful to Account Our national project of elite impunity

"So you did a few death-squad massacres or wedding bombings? Well, that was what leaders had to do to fight communism and terrorism. You can take a sack of cash from an FBI agent if you’re Tom Homan. But if you overstayed your visa or got an abortion, you deserve to have the book thrown at you."

30 years.

This video should be on every network.

Like Clockwork, the Front-Runner for the Democratic Nomination Just Dropped a Memoir. I Read It. We’re Doomed. If nothing else, the book is good for a game of politician-memoir bingo.

I hereby predict that the @democrats.org will finagle the primaries to ensure that Newsom will be the party's '28 nominee, same as they did to ensure that Sanders wouldn't be the nominee in '16.

Ergo, we are indeed doomed. The Democrats have been fully captured by the oligarchy.

"Purity test" is a right-wing propaganda tactic that (unfortunately) works all too well to undermine concerned citizens with actual ethical and moral standards for their politics.

Conservatives don’t actually care about women or children.

And they never will.

Authoritarianism is rising because our democracy was failing before Trump.

When pro-democracy forces take back power, we can’t just restore the status quo. We need to change a political system that gives oligarchs a veto over working people.

We need a new democracy.

The State of the Union: the president is a corrupt demented sex criminal who tried to overthrow the constitution.

Clarence Thomas Just Created a Dangerous New Threat to Mail Voting The Supreme Court handed down an alarming decision on Tuesday prohibiting Americans from suing the Postal Service for damages.

The USPS has just been given the green light to filter your mail in any way it sees fit, with no avenue for you to to seek restitution. Suddenly, mail-in voting is now an incredibly risky proposition.

Google Says People Are Copying Its AI Without Its Permission, Much Like It Scraped Everybody's Data Without Asking to Create Its AI in the First Place Google accused "commercially motivated" actors of trying to clone its Gemini AI after indiscriminately scraping the web for its models.

The headline is chef's kiss.

Uncle Jeffy Tiedrich says today in his newsletter:

"Here’s one sure way you can tell you’re living in a shithole country: when the following two headlines appear one after another."

The solution for our democracy is more democracy.

It’s not enough to let people vote against one of two uninspiring general election candidates.

All voters should get to vote FOR who those candidates even are in the first place.

iamdanlevey 18h These are the two Republican lawmakers from Tennessee who have proposed a bill that would allow the death penalty for women who have abortions. baba.yaga.bentley 16h Statistically, someone should probably check their hard drives. Posted in r/MurderedByWords
