The Right’s Genocidal Addiction To “Winning” Is Not New White reactionaries have always used whatever power and framing they could to resist any perceived threats to their idealized white identities. Same with idealized masculine identities. And class i…

Trolled to death? There’s a larger discussion here in the wake of the murder of Charlie Kirk to be had about the role of identity – or, more specifically, lack thereof – in the online generations. I’ve m…

Fascism Is Political Narcissism Narcissism is a word – and a concept – that gets thrown around a lot, I know. But what lies at the heart of the pathology is of vital importance in understanding how Fascism functions, …

It is worth understanding that competing narcissists are not a sound basis for governance or society.

The Fascist Myth Of Immigration II: Essentialism We’ve touched on the subject of the economics of immigration here, in regards to H1B visas, and how the Capitalist desire for oppressive control over captive workers is at odds with the howle…

The Fascist Myth Of Immigration I: A Brief History Let’s state this up front: immigration, documented or not, has never been a problem in the US. Ever. Indigenous folks could add a caveat to this, of course, but even a cursory glance at the h…

The centering of fascist power around a fabricated “problem of others” is pure Nazism.

Centering fascist power around a completely fabricated “problem of others” is literally 1938 stuff.

Amazing how easily this nonsense is leveraged by a plague of narcissists.

I read Black Like Me when I was in elementary school, just picking it out randomly.

“It’s not real till a white person writes it” is a bit cringe, but the act of radical empathy resonated with me.

The Beauty Myth, also problematic, showed me pressures I didn’t face, my privilege. Opened my eyes.

She’s a perfect example of how incompetent and bloodthirsty this administration is.

It’s like trying to keep a bunch of psychotic kids from shitting on the dining room table. They don’t care, they just think you getting mad is funny.

Literal Nazi shit, to grift more money from the smoothbrains.

Evil. No other word for it.

Chicago Police Dismissed a Recruit’s Claims That a Colleague Sexually Assaulted Her. Then He was Accused Again and Again. The Invisible Institute and ProPublica reviewed over 300 complaints accusing Chicago officers of sexual assault and misconduct. Time and time again, the police department downplayed or ignored claims,...

NEW: We identified at least 14 officers in the Chicago Police Department who, according to disciplinary records, have faced multiple accusations of sexual assault or misconduct in the past 10 years.

Most have not been convicted.

New hotness! Be sure to check for a few more posts we may have missed posting here. There are some recent bangers, for sure.

A quote from Sarah Stillman that reads, “What I found . . . is hard to describe as anything other than a pattern of widespread torture of people with mental-health issues in county jails.”

In a new report, Sarah Stillman investigates deaths related to starvation, dehydration, and neglect in county jails across the U.S.—a crisis that at times has been covered up by private health companies and government officials.

We've reached the point in our descent into fascism where the Jewish governor's house getting firebombed on Passover by a guy trying to bash his head in with a sledgehammer is overshadowed by the story of the President saying he wants to build foreign gulags for US citizens.

In case all this feels familiar to some of you, it should. It’s the same narcissistic abuse we got in the first term, that has been the brand identity of MAGA since it was the Tea Party.

Can we just cal the confluence of these two sociopathic soupbrains “the Mumps”?

Poor ‘Merica, she done got the Mumps.

Or a member of an identitarian cult led by narcissistic sociopaths.

It is so wild that the “don’t call us racists” and “don’t call us Nazis” crowd have been in power for THREE DAYS, and literally everything they’ve done has been the most racist, most Nazi shit they can do.

Who could have known, shocked face.

Literally everyone. Including their voters.

Isn’t this illegal? Not that it matters to the griftocracy class.

Great show.

Also, great allegory for Republican politics.
