Please tell me you realize that the real antisemites are the white nationalists.

And the Hitler wasn't a socialist, despite what the acronym for Nazi means?

Because it you don't understand that, you really should educate yourself.

At least, if your concern is protecting the Jewish community.

Just don't try to convince actual leftists what we believe.

Those kinds of games bore us.

You have never seen one leftist minimize the role of Christian antisemitism.

The very few Christian leftists I've ever met were aware of and ashamed by the history of the church.

It's EXCLUSIVELY the Christian Nationalists who are ignorant.

You're not even doing a straw-man argument properly.

It's time to reconcile the meanings of "theology" & "mythology".

Both words mean the same thing.

Frankly, I don't even want street performers using amplification.

Because Walmart employees get an in-store discount, a significant portion of their paycheck never leaves the property.

Same goes for their SNAP benefits.

Capitalism is a human sausage grinder.

I kept waiting and waiting for the Biden DOJ to file literally any charges against Trump.

But that's not how the system is supposed to work. The POTUS has a golden ticket.

Nixon was pardoned without a single charge filed

Let's see if Trump's DOJ continues that tradition.

LMAO!

Like any cult, neoliberals can't really talk to anyone who doesn't speak their coded language or have all the exact same values.

They actively despise any policy discussions, and exclusively focus on race and gender.

There's less Nazis on Bluesky, but not much more dialogue.

Gayle King Expected to Depart as β€˜CBS Mornings’ Anchor Amid CBS News Overhaul (EXCLUSIVE) Gayle King is expected to depart as 'CBS Mornings' anchor when her contract expires next spring. She may shift to a different role at CBS News.

It really does seem as if Bari is ethically cleansing the CBS news room.

I'm not sure if she's using the "brown paper bag" test or just winging it.

Cops are so much like children, it's almost funny.

Give them a new toy and they forget everything else. Including the basics of police work.

It's the same reason "journalists" love to mutually masturbate on X:

Laziness, pure and simple

There appears to be this magical thought process among partisans on both sides of the aisle, regarding their pet agendas.

The Democrats have no interest in actually understanding how power grids work or consulting those who do.

Republicans don't care about human rights or democracy.

As NW faces rolling blackouts, study says renewable energy may not be enough The greater Northwest region could experience a 9-gigawatt energy gap by 2030, or about the same amount of power consumed by Oregon. That could lead to rolling blackouts during extreme weather events ...

OR & WA are two of the blue states that have been working to ban gas appliances in new construction.

Like Republicans working to repeal the ACA, there is no plan to eliminate the need for gas or covering costs.

Rather burn nat gas, coal or build a nuclear plant?

Pardoned J6 defendant, running for Senate, wants to deputize Proud Boys A candidate for U.S. Senate in Florida has proposed deputizing members of the Proud Boys and Jan. 6 participants for immigration enforcement.

For immigration enforcement, sure.

Not as a sectarian militia with the express intent to intimidate voters or poll workers.

Not to murder protesters, Handmaid style.

While police look away and maybe the National Guard is deployed to another part of the state.

ChatGPT-Composed Bill De Blasio Interview Was β€œHumiliating”, Times Of London Associate Editor Tells Newsroom A senior The Times of London editor has bemoaned the damage inflicted on the newspaper's reputation over a botched Bill de Blasio interview.

"We – reporters and editors – should be asking: Who is telling me this and why? How do I know they’re who they say they are? How plausible is what I’m being told? What can I do to check?"

Google finally opens up the Play Store's gates in the US Google is opening up the Play Store in the US, allowing users to download apps and make payments outside it starting October 29, 2025.

It's definitely a win for Epic, but it's also a win for a lot of small devs and content providers.

Now they can process payments outside of Google's exploitive Play Store ecosystem.

They could not have paid the army of lawyers.

Apple's likely next.

Just a quick reminder that JB Pritzker is a multi-billionaire.

That means he's part of the problem, and will never be any part of a solution.

β€˜Soul-Crushing’: Students Slam Harvard’s Grade Inflation Report | News | The Harvard Crimson Harvard students pushed back forcefully against a new University report condemning grade inflation, arguing that it misrepresented their academic experience and would add pressure to an already demand...

β€œIf that standard is raised even more, it’s unrealistic to assume that people will enjoy their classes.”

That could be one of the most entitled statements I've ever read.

It screams: "I have a trust fund and never need to get a job!"

Fair enough.

I'll tell you my main issue with Pete, Hilary & Kamala: they are all extremely vague about policies and rarely outline any specifics.

That makes it easy for them to pivot in runoff. Then, they can do what they always planned if elected.

A lot of us are tired of that.

Obama was a persuasive and engaging speaker. I voted for him, despite the fact that his policies were also center-right, neolib orthodoxy.

I know that Pete is intelligent. I have watched him speak and do not find him compelling.

Neoliberal orthodoxy ushered in Fascism 2.0

You’re Being Lied to About Graham Platner We read Graham Platner’s whole Reddit archive. The vilification of the Maine candidate for Senate doesn’t square with what he actually wrote in his posts.

It's tough to paint him as a secret Nazi when he never made any antisemitic comments and called others out for racism.

But they sure are going to try?

It just doesn't seem to be effective.

Shout out to a blue MAGA for posting a link he clearly didn't read!

Buttigieg stans are the saddest Democrats I've ever encountered.

Am I missing something?

He's not a persuasive speaker.

His positions are the most anodyne, center-right, neoliberal slop.

Enjoy that poll! It's as close as he gets.

It's almost as if they have some kink about running losers.

I can't understand why anyone thinks Mckinsey, to Mayor to Transportation Secretary is a path to the presidency.

Please tell me that you understand he can't win the runoff.

Because I'm starting to believe the Democrats enjoy being the opposition party.

Trump orders Pentagon to begin testing nuclear weapons 'immediately' The U.S. voluntarily halted nuclear explosive testing in 1992, though it has the ability to resume tests at a site in Nevada.

With Hegseth at the helm, I'm sure America's nuclear weapons program is in good hands!
