The fish hook theory is a political concept, often cited by leftists, proposing that centrists and the far-right are closely allied, forming a shape like a fishing hook, rather than the "horseshoe" theory where leftists nd far-right meet. It suggests centrists enable or share affinities with the far-right/fascism.

horseshoe theory is garbage nonsense for enlightened centrists.

embrace fish hook theory.

To be a leftist, you must be anti-fascist. This is not gatekeeping, it is a matter of material politics.

A Red-Brown alliance is impossible because the moment you ally yourself with fascism, you also become a fascist.

Fascism as an ideology devours, dominates, & steals because it cannot create.

Ana Kasparian is not a leftist, she is a rube who radicalized into a fascist via transphobia well over a year ago.

Her antisemitism is revolting & unfortunately not surprising given the ideological overlap between different camps of rightwing bigotry.

β€œThat’s so gay!” is a textbook microaggression: There is nothing homosexual about a making a bad play during a video game, but to call it β€œgay” reinforces the falsehood that being gay is bad. Still, unless you want to explain all this to the young men upstairs β€” who may not have considered the homophobia embedded in their expression β€” focus on the noise problem, instead.

We literally know now that anti-trans legislation was pushed by a pedophile ring to allow a pedophile ring to serve a pedophile ring’s interests, and legislators have decided the best course of action is to keep doing what the pedophile ring wants.

hey, remember when the transphobes started coming for gender-affirming care for minors and it was framed as β€œconcern for children” and trans folks said β€œlol they just want us to not exist” and our society full of rubes and people with turnips for brains took the transphobes’ arguments at face value

Here's my opinion.

The mic wasn't on him, but it was placed in front of him. They deliberately wanted him to tic and for them to 'catch it'. The BBC and BAFTA made this choice and made it to stir up this kind of shit.

They harmed Davidson. They harmed people with Tourettes. They harmed every

Former public servant says Phoenix 'ruined' his 20s and haunts him still | CBC News Jordan Morrison says his 20s were ruined by Phoenix pay errors that he's still fighting today. An economist warns the federal government will continue losing talented young workers to the private sect...

The Phoenix pay system is continuing to screw over workers. With hundreds of thousands of worker claims sitting unresolved. Constant under payment. And false claims of over payment.

This is beyond sick. Workers paying the price of automation, constantly.

A grocery store near me started keeping the lettuce on shelves like lunatics so it was bad before you purchased it.

Can scientists just find a way to make the lettuce last a little longer in the fridge? I’m okay if the solution shaves a year or two off my life.

Four brave people on an innocent Florida speed boat were taken from us today when the cruel autocratic Cuban regime unilaterally enforced a despotic law against shooting people unprovoked.

Is there a daily Canadian politics podcast that people like? I’ve been listening to ABC’s Politics Now for like a year and it’s kind of weird we don’t really have a Canadian equivalent (at least that I’ve seen.)

it looks like the Soviets were right in terms of how much stockpile they’d need for like another WWII-length war because the Russians are out of T-80 and now down to their T-62s in stockpiles and using them as second-line infantry guns
