Is this due to religious zealotry or do they have pics of him doing something unholy? Or both? It’s off the wall.

Both sides of the MAGA β€œZionism” divide are antisemitic. But it also needs to be said that not all anti-zionists are right-wing or antisemitic.

It's not a new observation at this point but that wild Noem/Lewandowski story in WSJ really brings home the extent to which all the Trump 2 cabinet-level goblins see their jobs as flying private, doing short-form video, and screaming at underlings. They all hate each other and none of them can read.

THE DILDO DISTRIBUTION DELEGATION The revolution did not arrive with speeches, pamphlets, or a carefully moderated Zoom call about optics.

history:

β€œI’m going to hand out big dicks to little-dick ICE agents.”

The Geneva Convention disintegrated. The Founding Fathers wept. Somewhere, a federal HR manager clutched their chest and whispered, β€œNo. Not like this.”

Any reconstructive project that doesn’t begin from the premise of severely disciplining the American oligarchic class is DOA. Criminal prosecutions, nationalization of tech platforms, knee capping Citizens United and more.

What his supporters see and admire most is precisely his grotesque racism. That and his willingness to use symbolic and real violence to strip black and brown people of formal rights and recognition.

Immigration is a fake problem. We have politicians on the one hand who want to use immigrants as scapegoats for our real ones and politicians on the other who are too cowardly to stand against them and tell the truth. That is the entire situation. Until that changes, people will continue to die.

America has not always been a fascist state because racialized violence and colonialism are not unique to fascism. Liberal democratic states are also guilty of these crimes. This distinction matters for understanding and confronting far right radicalization and shredding of β€œformal” civil rights.

It’s ironic that they’re like β€œif we do ethnic cleansing we’ll have a high trust neighborly society” and then Minneapolis is literally doing high trust neighborly society and they’re like nooooo

I really do not understand why the majority of Republicans don't just move to Russia. Or DPRK, if that is their preference. They can live the lives they so strongly seem to desire without fighting about it, and without losing more time.

So much of American history is just impulsive and extremely stupid elites, who don't believe in consequences because they have never personally experienced them, doing highly consequential stuff because they're bored or believe it might make them richer. I guess a lot of our culture, too.

The American political right is a cesspit of bigotry, white grievance, conspiracism, religious zealotry, violent ideation and action, and plutocrat money fueling it all.

Among rightist political and thought leaders, there’s little to no good faith. There’s just power and gleeful destruction.

Just thinking about how the right made up an entirely fictional left wing character that resulted in so many bomb threats and the like and nobody will face consequences. But people on the left who accurately clocked the victim’s life work lost jobs.

A young white Christian male who was raised by Republicans and taught to use guns from a young age shot Charlie Kirk.

Not long after, a young white Christian male radicalized online by white male Christians like Charlie Kirk shot up his high school in the state next door.

Many have commented that the war on science and medicine is irrational from the standpoint of capitalism. The destruction of the CDC makes sense though if you realize the war is actually on us, our communities, our very lives. It’s a class war against life itself.

Hungary banned anything that β€œpromotes homosexuality,” which means Pride.

However, today over 500,000 people in Budapest told the government to fuck off. πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆπŸ³οΈβ€βš§οΈ

These regime change wars, beginning with Iraq, are about instituting chaos and never letting any successful democratic or marginally independent state from ever arising in the Middle East. American Israeli hegemony are the ends, failed states are the means.

U.S. attacks three Iranian nuclear sites, Trump says: Live updates Follow live updates on the conflict between Israel and Iran as it enters its 9th day of attacks.

Time will tell what the consequences are of the US entering Israel’s war against Iran. But it gives me a sickening feeling. We need an anti-war movement to arrest this drift toward oblivion.
