Now: Hundreds assembling in the Chicago Loop for a march and rally to demand the National Guard leave town. Folks chanting "Donald Trump you racist clown! You're not welcome in this town!"

The psychological element can't be overstated.

They're all cowards and insecure in their masculinity, as far as I can tell, which makes them aggressive, volatile, and very dangerous, but it also means all that can flip the second they feel they've been overpowered, even if it's only perceived.

My first impulse was Breakthrough News but sadly I don't think he's become a Marxist-Leninist. πŸ˜… But I'm guessing now it's the pro-abudance think tank Breakthrough Institute? Β―\\_(ツ)_/Β―

Nightmares asleep, nightmares awake Israel targeted and destroyed a high-rise tower adjacent to our building but we refuse to leave.

If death must come, it can find us in Gaza City – the place where we were raised and where we took our first breaths and our first steps. #eiGazaDispatches

While not to dissuade, it's worth noting that non-US proprietary tech can be sold to the US at any time. Seek out free/libre apps first if you can (eg Nextcloud et al, like Paris mentions) + always look for non-US servers. If you live in US, a server co-op can be a good option.

At least the bubble may finally be bursting, altho not before devastating plenty of livelihoods, with yet more to come in the wake of all that over-speculated capital evaporating into thin air. πŸ˜“

Thx. I talked to them, it was fine. I go to this church whenever I am in this city. As @prisonculture.bsky.social says we have to be in relationship with each other, so that we have soft places to land when we inevitably have conflict or accidentally hurt each other bsky.app/profile/tuck...

Is it too much to ask for leaders unafraid to stand up for what they believe? The only reason Trump's gunthugs aren't here in NY already is bc he fears backlash from the left in Nov. Whatever Z's shortcomings, Cuomo/Jeffries/Schumer gave up before the fight even got started.

We don't. Like how down-ballot Dems didn't want Biden stumping for them in 24 or won't openly endorse Schumer for leader now. They're politically toxic to voters, only the donors prop them up. If the party doesn't rebuke them, there won't be Dems on any ballot come 2028.

We want his and Chuck's resignation for shitting on working ppl for a combined 68 years, then committing a genocide, then rolling over and playing dead for a fascist coup. It's really not that complicated.

I think I lasted up until the T-rex pushed the jeep went over the wall, then I told my dad I wanted to leave the theater. Shame, I probably could have made thru the rest from that point.

They sent Slick Willie to MI a week before the election to scold Muslim voters about "Judea & Samaria" and tell them how Palestinian lives weren't worth as much Israeli lives. Dem leadership should never be allowed to live that down unless there is fundamental change or the party ceases to exist.

The 6th US party system is over & the Dem party (as constituted) will be lucky if it survives to next Nov. A state-by-state coalition of Greens and Reds in 2026 could knock Dems off the ballot by 2028 (if there still are ballots by then) or crash the convention to overturn it from within.

Clip from The AI Con:

But when referring to these technologies in general, we will sometimes use the shorthand abbreviation of β€œAI”. We want to keep a critical distance from the term: Every time we write β€œAI”, imagine we have a set of scare quotes around it. Or if you prefer, replace it with a ridiculous phrase. Some of our favorites include β€œmathy maths”, β€œa racist pile of linear algebra”, β€œstochastic parrots” (referring to large language models specifically), or Systematic Approaches to Learning Algorithms and Machine Inferences (aka SALAMI).

And if you can excuse the genocide & oppression of ppl who don't look, speak or believe as you do, just b/c Team Blue was the offending party, you've succumbed to a form of bigotry peculiar to moderate white liberals but no less immoral than naked fascism.

If the only way you're willing to fight fascists is every 2 or 4 years at the ballot box, you've already capitulated, and I feel sorry for you on that account.

Resist & better our lives how exactly? By waging economic warfare on workers during a pandemic? By drilling more oil, deporting more families, building more prisons & militarizing more cops in an attempt to outpace R's? By cracking skulls on campuses when kids protest a genocide armed/funded by D's?
