One reason I think the admin is really gonna lose here is simply that cocaine does not have a surrounding moral panic like, say, fentanyl and people can pretty quickly assess they don’t want to feel a few steps away from being drone striked for a bump.

has the opposition party deigned to finally release a statement that officially condemns the fascist governmentβ€˜s policy of spectacular serial murder in the Caribbean and its continued violation of basic international law

This isn’t to excuse what’s clearly and utterly disgusting, just to note it is a pretty natural expression of American discourses of punishment and expectations for those we condemn. This administration is injecting that id directly into extrajudicial military operations.

The state murdering people for drug trafficking should shock the conscience but it is not shocking in the context of American punitive ideology which has, for decades, condemned people for drug offenses to any and all fates they might meet in prison.

What’s so striking about the current situation is that every administration this century has killed people much the same way β€” think of all the murdered bystanders in drone strikes across Iraq/Afghanistan/beyond β€” but only these guys insist on posting about all the murder they are doing on video.

Yes the details are also illegal
and all of this alleged, but if the opposition party can’t just say β€œit is morally repugnant to murder people for participating in drug trafficking” I’m just not sure what the point is.

all of the polling and common sense tells us that democrats could demolish the republican party solely on β€œthey want your children to get sick and die” but democrats have somehow convinced themselves that vaccines & health are too woke and wonky

really feels like the only way we emerge from all of this *gestures everywhere* is through a winning campaign of moral outrage, humanity, and integrity

another campaign of triangulation and artifice, even if it wins an election, can not undo all this immense moral and physical damage

it would be cool if, one day, democrats stopped saying that the politicians who have a fetish for killing people are their β€œfriends across the aisle,” their partners in government

it would be good if democratic politicians, media, anyone with a platform, did *more* name calling β€” because these people are a real gang of sociopaths, abusers, perverts, weirdos, egomaniacs, pedophiles

feels like, as an alternative to all the β€œya gotta give him credit,” we could have leaders who just repeatedly emphasize that β€œthe president is asleep while his psychopaths kill people, kidnap you, and pardon drug kingpins and fraudsters”

At what point will we see all of these these cars, here just passing by a small number of gestapo dragging someone away, stop and surround these agents of the state proving they could pick on anyone.

The U.S. is the only democracy in the world with:

- Lifetime terms for high court judges
- An electoral college for choosing an executive
- A legislative chamber where legislative minorities routinely and permanently thwart legislative majorities
- 75% requirements for constitutional amendments
