Annexing another country?? You know who annexed neighbors? Nazi Germany. They annexed Austria first followed by the Sudetenland (part of Czechoslovakia) then Bohemia and Moravia.

When will the Senate and House of Representatives stop this? How many people will die from a completely needless war?

The 2020 election: Just over half of the Current GOP (51%) believes that the 2020 U.S. presidential election was fraudulent, while 41% say that view is probably or definitely false. Among New Entrant Republicans, support for this belief rises to 60%. Vaccines and autism: One in three in the Current GOP (33%) believe that childhood vaccines cause autism. This view is more common among college graduates (42%) than non-graduates (29%), and among New Entrant Republicans (47%). 9/11 conspiracies: Four in ten in the Current GOP (41%) believe that the 9/11 attacks were likely orchestrated or permitted by U.S. government actors. Belief is highest among men (48%), college graduates (51%), Republicans under 50 (53%, compared with 34% of those over 50), and New Entrant Republicans (53%). Among black GOP voters the figure is 58%, and among Hispanic GOP voters, 56%. Holocaust denial or minimization: Nearly four in ten in the Current GOP (37%) believe the Holocaust was greatly exaggerated or did not happen as historians describe. Younger men are especially likely to hold this view (54% of men under 50 vs. 39% of women under 50). Among men over 50, 41% agree, compared with 18% of women over 50. Racial divides are particularly striking: 77% of Hispanic GOP voters 30% of white GOP voters 66% of black GOP voters

what’s your favorite instance of haptic nostalgia—the poignant memory of the physicality of an obsolete thing—like dialing a rotary phone, shifting gears in a manual transmission, opening a soda can with a pull ring?

While we’re banning books…

Finland is teaching children in school how to recognize fake news and propaganda as part of critical thinking and civic responsibility. Some of this will seem very familiar.

Be. Like. Finland.

Here is my response to Donald Trump’s latest malicious lies:

🖤❤️☕️Good morning!

We don't live in a zero-sum world. We may all enjoy success; if we help one another, the success is so much sweeter.

Revealed: the Operators Behind Four Major Neo-Nazi X Accounts Anonymity has long been a tactic used by extremists to spread their ideology while avoiding social consequences, from Klansmen hoods to online pseudonyms.

Anonymity has long been a tactic used by extremists to spread their ideology while avoiding social consequences, from Klansmen hoods to online pseudonyms. But anonymity has its limits.

Discussing blanket pardons draws us off of the real issue, the concern that Trump will pervert the criminal justice system & use DOJ as a political tool, which is forcing the Biden administration into these considerations. Don't forget why we're here.

I just had to......🤣🤣🤣🤣

An insider from Donald Trump's first administration says Kash Patel is a “delusional liar”

It never stops being weird watching homophobes dance to YMCA, the most popular gay anthem of all time.

I will never understand how he was even allowed to run... the greatest failure of checks and balances in the American history...

Vindman is now a duly elected member of congress being threatened by an unelected oligarch who owns the incoming president. Does anyone see the problem here??
