I've been not listening to T-swift for more than a decade now. Works just fine. Y'all should be more like me

Charlie Kirk spent his life making people like me unsafe. His followers sent me death threats for years and threatened my employer if they didn’t terminate me.

His work was NEVER about free speech. It was about hate and emboldening violent people. The dishonesty of the past 24hrs is disgusting.

Ezra Klein isn’t theorizing Charlie Kirk. He is theorizing politics. And he is saying that Charlie Kirk’s brand of white supremacy was a good way of doing politics.

I hope you all recognize now that Ezra is a total fucking ghoul

my gf says we can't rewatch righteous gemstones until 2027, so as a nation we really need to hold it together at least until then everybody

In November 2024, I made a list of things I thought the fascism theory of Trumpism predicted could happen.

And if targeting trans people and the unhoused is somehow a "purity test" for you, then what the fuck are you actually fighting for and against?

I'm serious: If the literal things our enemies are doing are not bad enough for you to say "hey maybe this guy isn't actually on my side," then *What Is*?

I know we're all desperate for anyone at all to fight back against trump, but Newsom's not a hero, here. He's not even a good person. He's a transphobe & actively, proudly destroying tent shelter encampments *With His Own Hands*.

This is prime LetThemFight Dot Gif & we get to take down the winner.

I need people to understand:

1. Every US state already evicts more people annually than all of the EU combined

2. In most states, having a disability, health emergency, or a financial hardship is not a defense to an eviction suit

3. In most states, there is no right to counsel in eviction cases

If you want a sharp analysis of the history of repression in the district this book is a good place to look.

After Hurricane Katrina, it was discovered that white vigilantes went around just shooting any and all black people they came across after the news whipped them up about 'looters'.

Here they are celebrating on camera.

Over 600 ended up missing.

Many of them likely shot by these organized gangs.

"What is happening in DC right now would not be happening if DC had been made a state any time Democrats held both the presidency and Congress in the last 30 years.

Adding states to the union is much easier to do than amending the constitution. It requires nothing more than an act of Congress, and only needs a simple majority to pass. The Obama Senate could have easily done it when they had 59 senators. But the party leaders thought, I dunno, it wouldn’t be sporting or something. Not fair to the Republicans to use power to do things. The pundits might call it β€œoverreach,” oh no, not that. Biden could have tried to do it - everyone was already saying it was necessary democracy reform after Trump I - but he pre-gave up because Manchin and Sinema said they just had to respect the ancient and immortal filibuster, so what can you do? Best not to try. 

So now we have millions of US citizens with no representation at all under naked authoritarian rule by an unchecked federal law enforcement apparatus. And the pundits have all forgotten the word β€œoverreach,” which only applies to Democrats when they win by much greater margins than this and have much larger and more representative majorities than this."
