Republicans have twisted themselves so far around to placate Trump that they no longer have any idea what their position is.

It’s not really a mystery as to why you don’t see many folks on the right cheering on and celebrating American Olympic victories. They hate the country as it exists today. They’re very clear on this point.

Same folks who in 2022 were apoplectic about the U.S. securing the release of Brittney Griner from a Russian prison. They hate this country so much.

If you're wondering how the Conspiracy Theorists and Shoot Your Local Pedo guys are handling all this Epstein stuff you should know they've moved on to attacking the victims as lying greedy whores because of course they have did you ever think this would turn out any other way

a diverse range of voices. the libertarians hate women and think they should get to fuck 14 year olds. the conservatives, they want should get to fuck 14 year olds and hate women. and the gadflies? well the gadflies they think they should be able to fuck 14 year olds but get this, they hate women

They do not want AOC to win and see this as an opportunity to knife her

There must be trials. Not as an emotive aspiration, rhetorical meme, or empty threat. A concrete plan. A dedicated special court for it. Structural legislation and prosecutors and funding and all the rest of it. Everything necessary for it can be done constitutionally. All it takes is the will.

Dawg how is this a 3 days news cycle?

An illustration of Tal'whe the Fowldyr who belongs to Arukanoda (Apex) Fowldyr are a closed species created by Stasanie (me) www.fowldyr.com A camel-like creature with a long tail tipped in feathers walks through an environment that resembles salt flats. The creature is black and gold and carries a large vase on their back in place of a camel's hump. Large arches of rock appear in the distance with a massive white tree root spiraling around them. #Fowldyr #Stasanie

All his emails read like general anesthesia is starting to kick in

i think this is exactly right. fascism is the Death Drive as ideology. it's why the catastrophic end of the Nazi Party does not deter people from worshipping Nazis. that the Nazis destroyed Germany along with the rest of Europe is part of the appeal.

This is embarrassingly on-the-nose textbook “psychology of fascism” stuff. Bitter, impotent tools getting to feel powerful by proxy watching brutality done on their behalf.

the southern aristocracy was built on pedophiliac rape and that was the thing that more than anything else converted Northerners who encountered it from begrudging soldiers to crusaders.

so ALL of these children just magically *have* orange slices after EVERY soccer game???

ok George Soros

But these fascists, like many fascists and other authoritarians, confuse the pageantry of violence for power - they imagine that the state with armed men walking the streets is strong. But only a weak government needs to put armed men in the streets to exert power.

A strong government has no need.

The modern right is ultimately not about values, but rather specifically the lack thereof. It is not a shared set of ideals in the traditional sense, but rather a collective excuse to let their worst impulses run rampant.

Nothing says "I love Jair Bolsonaro" like going to the hospital

School shooter / family annihilator mentality turned into a political movement.

The conservative intelligentsia and media-industrial complex has been publicly masturbating about getting to kill people for years now, they are orders of magnitude worse than even the MAGA base. Everybody knows this, it's just politically incorrect to say it.

I didn’t think I could respect the whole thing less but in the last five years it’s gone from being about power and the exercise of it to crying that people don’t like you when you exercise power to hurt them and it just feels like middle school. It’s like they’re aging backwards.

the idea that this is evil is older than writing

Not to get all stentorian, but both my grandfathers served in WW2, and one of them died from its lingering sting decades later (chronic injuries). An ocean of fucking blood shed, the highest price imaginable paid to create a world where this shit didn’t happen, undone for *nothing*. Fuck you!

most powerful international cooperation in history, born out of the ashes of the worst thing our species has done to itself, and this rotting rapist corpse burns it all for the Mercator projection

just fucking kill me man

An old tweet of mine from 2021 saying “We used to have Gingerbread Men in this country. Nowadays all we have is Gingerbread Them. Retweet if you support nuclear war with China”

Government accounts just post like this now and that’s how policy is made

“Just why Mr. Frodo was selling his beautiful hole was even more debatable than the price.”
