It’s more like the script from A Few Good Men:
Col. Jessup: β€œI have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it!”

As one of your constituents, I urge you to advise our PM to not allow our Armed Forces to support the US in this illegal war of aggression. At this point, US leadership has turned it into a rogue nation and we shouldn’t pretend otherwise.

I don't know how I missed this piece by @cduhigg.bsky.social. If you want to survive, come with me: organizing is the only way. This existential moment needs people power. The recipe is out there, but support for this kind of work on the mainstream left is weak. Read it. Share it. Do it. So good.

Doing it while they still can, given the looming change of ownership.

And the fact that they’re not, shows us where their priorities lie.

And β€œhistory” is as soon as tomorrow, especially when it’s being written by people other than Americans.

Given that (I presume) his wife is a woman, he probably thinks she shouldn't be voting at all.

Especially late diagnosed autistic women whose sense of justice and egalitarianism will eliminate the destructive social hierarchies.

The American people need to realize that they are NOT the good guys in this new scenario. These are the illegal orders that troops were warned about.

Just watched a screening in Kingston and highly recommend this important and moving documentary. Its focus on young people resonates today, with young people now being the ones to get us out of the oppressive hierarchical domination of our current systems of β€œorder”.

On US tariffs: here's how you know who pays for them: if there are refunds, who do the cheques go to? They don't go to other nations! They go to US businesses, even though they really should go to US consumers.

Thinking about elections: the people we vote for are representatives of us. If they do not work for us, they shouldn't be in office. Remember when McConnell said he wanted to make Obama a one-term pres? That was his mission. Not to represent his state. Find and vote for people who put you first.

YouTube video by The DSR Network The Coming Earthquake in US Politics and Why It May Be a Very Good Thing

Realizations and revelations on the DSR today, where @djrothkopf.bsky.social and @contrariannews.org talk about how (among other things) the reporting on the US regime should be crime reporters, not political.

Listen up people! This is about authoritarian media capture, and it's all part of some sort of burgeoning revolution, where we are finally able to see everything that is really happening in society, so we can decide what kind of world we want to live in.

While each one of us is special (infinitely valuable), not everything we do or make is special. We have to separate out the being from the doing.

It’s not just Epstein and MeToo; it’s the whole system of hierarchy and dominance that supports patriarchy and colonialism and the rest.

I became a feminist in the 1970s. When I started reading feminism again 10 years ago, I redefined it as β€œeasing oppression everywhere” but that is less catchy than the definition above.

If the US attacks Iran, it will be a war of aggression just like Putin attacking Ukraine. It could end in WWIII. Let’s not pretend it’s anything else.
