I mean either she's antisemitic or too dumb to understand that the whole Rothschild thing was an antisemitic trope. Either way, garbage journalist.

"The fight is lost." Dawg if you think the fight against Nazism is lost I would suggest you STFU and let the adults handle things. Pathetic "thought leadership" like you're displaying here is a big part of why we're in this mess.

Also it would really be nice if white liberals in this country would tell the truth to their European brethren bout WHY this country has no safety nets especially considering that they wont cut off their families members who keep voting away those safety nets for….well reasons.

Its like they really dont get it. Stop romanticizing countries that are over 80% WHITE when discussing human rights. YOU CAN MIGRATE THERE WITH VERY LITTLE DISRUPTION TO YOUR LIFE WE CANNOT.

I think because the U.S. basically spent the entirety of the movie/radio/TV era portraying every villain as a buffoonish Brit, and the big British modern cultural contribution, James Bond, is firmly planted in a post-hegemonic Cold War world.

FML.

There appears to be an issue with scam calls to the families of people kidnapped by ICE. The callers claim to be immigration lawyers, say that they’re going to help, and demand an up-front payment over WhatsApp or similar.

Real lawyers don’t do that!

as we are on the eve of trump lauching a war with iran for absolutely no reason, with no justification and no support, you can miss me with whatever this guy has to say on any topic whatsoever. thanks

This is just Pascal's Wager with guns except everyone else has to live with the consequences.

The Population Bomb - Wikipedia

The MAHA types are the ideological successors to a strain of environmentalism that came to prominence in the 60s and regards humans as a form of dangerous pollution.

There's an undercurrent of eugenicist racism in there, too. But the big idea is wanting less humans and smaller economies.

husband: do you know where the remote is?

me: THE DOW IS AT 50,000 and you care about THE REMOTE?!

Holy shit.

A lot of people have suggested this, but I don’t think Lieu would make the allegation unless he had seen some evidence.

BREAKING: The Department of Education has ended its directive that attempted to restrict diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts in schools nationwide.

This is a victory for academic freedom and education equity.

journalists think they "learn more" on X because it is durably shifting users' views on policy and current events towards conservative positions -- which assuredly nets them more positive attention and engagement on the platform

This person asked you an objective question and you responded with a subjective, meaningless answer. But it's people here not engaging with the substance of your posts that are the problem?

Honestly, I think it's also projection because the crowd pushing that messaging are almost entirely the same ones who kept telling people not to vote because they decided trans lives didn't matter as much as teaching Dems a lesson did

this has nothing to do with foreign policy and everything to do with throwing elbows at “the left”

And on this site, and Threads and Twitter also, who has been working overtime to promote the idea that they might?

They only read theory and that theory is from like 100 years ago and therefore they truly believe that liberals are worse than fascists.

eternally doomed to be the only person in the world who remembers trumps first term

Dawg, we are very much second class citizens right now. So are women in general. So are Black and Brown people. The only progress we've seen away from any of that since the Great Depression has been under Democrats. What the fuck are you arguing for here?

That's literally how it works. And the candidate that wins won't be Newsom. However, y'all will just move goalposts and say the DNC rigged the primary when the candidate you do want doesn't win.

Dunno if you consider yourself a socialist or what, but FYI "First World," etc., was coined by Churchill and is the language of colonialism. Anytime someone compares the US to a "Third World" country and whatnot it just means too many Black and Brown people.

But maybe I'm just tired of stories about white dudes shooting at each other.

The point of One Battle After Another might be that we can't shoot our way out of our problems but ultimately I think the interpretation of the story is one of Eternal Struggle which is a fascist and brutalist socialist narrative. 2/

I find the society depicted in One Battle After Another - one that has devolved into a cycle of violent insurgencies - to be extremely pessimistic and one that feeds into accelerationist narratives that electoral systems and civic participation cannot save us. 1/

They love One Battle After Another because it furthers their brocialist fantasies of imminent societal collapse leading to a world where the only way to get things done involves left-wing white dudes shooting people and women aren't allowed to have brunch.

He’s the most prominent dem out there now and still polling 3rd generally speaking among Dems.

It ain’t happening.

Missing from all this Bluesky Newsom discourse is any description of how he plausibly wins the primary. I don't see how he's not a Super Tuesday flameout at the absolute best.
