Let's talk about that poster on the right, and the way the text is formatted. About as "1984"-esque as possible... I'd expect that in an HBOMax series on the book (or the The Man in the High Castle, or something)...

Propaganda writ large.

Just a reminder, if you have no posts or replies / look like a bot or surveillance, you will be blocked.

A very effective trap. All that expanse of fuzzy belly, just calling out to be scritched, then BAP!

It feels like we are back to the days of 60s-70s super computers, where you didn’t own it, you showed up with your punchcards for your alloted time slot, or used a terminal to access the mainframe…

I can’t recall another politician ever expressing this direct of a sentiment before. (depressing! it’s so simple!) it’s difficult to explain how it feels to wake up and find your country is bombing the place your family grew up. again

One of the few with courage to stand tall in these times, and fight for justice.

Elect a liar and a criminal, expect lies and criminal acts.

Anyone who wants to start a war should be forced to be out on the front lines of it.

At least 63 girls have been killed. If you support this, this is on you.

The Orangehead that bombed Iran is not the same one in 2013.

We haven't seemed to have one in some time... especially if one is an immigrant, not white, a woman, or LGBTQ+, or protesting ICE/Wars etc.
