Both a misunderstanding and a continuation of a push of historic propaganda to undermine anarchistic theories and ideals.

It was to whitewash the fact that they lynched 11 Italians in New Orleans in 1891.

I think he also made them provide proof of income and expenses in order to qualify, too.

Sure they are.

Bring them back and Bluesky will reign.

What's amusing about all the "what Bluesky can do to stay relevant" questions is that they miss the fundamental reason why Twitter was popular: Until 2016ish, timelines were chronological. And then corpos decided that they couldn't have real-time updates people could coordinate around.

Just now?

Memories.

Trump still would have won in 2024 even if everyone had turned out to vote, Pew finds In 2024, 64% of the eligible-voting population turned out, the second highest in 120 years. New data show that even if all those voters who stayed home had voted, Trump would still be president today.

No.

The rot is deeper than "people not voting".

one of the mistakes some of us leftists have made is the profound miscalculation and overestimation of the political literacy and critical thinking capacity of the general population.

Both are definitely major influences in my own perspectives. Klee's book lives on my desk.

An image of elderly rich white people displaying American flags and Trump signs, marked "WRONG." An image of a courageous demonstrator burning an American flag in Oakland City Hall, marked "RIGHT."

Fuck jingoism.

Fuck nativism.

Fuck bigotry.

Fuck nationalism.

Fuck ethno-nationalism.

Fuck Christian nationalism.

Fuck white supremacy.

Fuck colonialism.

Fuck patriotism, the last refuge of the scoundrel.

Fuck the fourth of July.
