Good thing we have a really astute FBI director and rigorous counterterrorism apparatus!

Many people are saying this

amazing how many people's principle actually turned out to be 'but the Nazi bar makes me feel cool and important'

a thing that's just behind the text of this piece is that the administration hasn't done *any* of the groundwork to prepare the american public if anything goes badly sideways

“I am the son of the guy whose secret police force used to terrorize you, please install me or my friends, for democracy” is an amazing pitch from the shah’s son

I'll say it again: If you're consistently finding ways to rationalize away Graham Platner's Nazi tattoo or embrace of Nazi content creators then you really are no different than those on the right who were trying to explain why Elon really wasn't giving a Heil Hitler

Shoutout to everyone in the national media who has spent months glazing this guy and treating people who suspect he’s a legit ideological antisemite like they’re hysterical

There were def people in Washington who advised Trump not to do this, basically saying, "hes 90, hes had cancer twice, hes going to die soon anyway. Dont make him a martyr for the cause". He didnt listen.

these people should all hang

you are literally the one guy who isn't allowed to complain about this

Currently trending on X.

Western leftists living in a corporate media environment that severely tilts right have developed an obsession about crafting the perfect message, which is supposed to hack the system and compensate for the other side having a huge propaganda machine.

Thermostatic opinion famously works solely based on whether the opposing party has exactly the right, perfect, well crafted message, as we saw clearly in Trump’s 2024 campaign, with its exquisite message of “Puerto Rico is garbage and Haitians are eating pets” delivered by a gibbering madman.

doing a semester long seminar on why America is fucked and this post is the whole syllabus

They don't *need* AI to make these decisions. But they *want* AI to make these decisions. Because the tech gives them plausible deniability--something to blame (other than themselves) when things go wrong.

We are strongest when we are in the business of telling obvious truths

I think bluesky would be roughly 300% better if people here were capable of reading “this is an assessment of the empirical reality of a situation” without assuming it comes with an implicit “and therefore I endorse the reality of that situation”

What happens when you play Kash Patel's girlfriend's country music backward?

U get your government back, u get your deposed leaders back, u get local control over your own resources people and economy back

I find I am honestly unsure what the long term implications are of the United States demonstrating twice in three months that its new preferred way of war is to engage in bolt-from-the-blue decapitation strikes with no obvious follow-up plan.

My instinct is that it will not turn out well.

This tweet preceeds and anticipates deaths in Operation Epic Fury by almost 15 years

I hope you aren’t drunk and took your staff’s advice, Rashida and I don’t know this man and feel confident he didn’t care about us. Please restrain from drinking too much as you have been warned from your staff and stay off social media when you are drunk. I pray in his holy month you find peace and respect for your self,

uhhh oh my god

the incentives here are so obscenely terrible that the entire thing should be illegal by default

“I am sabotaging negotiations because I stand to make piles of money on Polymarket” is absolutely in play, what a horrifying clusterfuck

Anybody who tells you they know what happens next is lying to you.

the war is unpopular but it's also illegal but it also doesn't serve any purpose but it also undermines diplomacy but it also is set to produce the opposite outcome as intended but it also already has hundreds dead and threatens more but it also will not make anything better for anyone but it also

Again, it is interesting that a single generation was entrusted with the richest, most advanced empire the world had ever known and was just uninterested in keeping it going

Trump does unpopular thing in direct violation of a campaign promise, part #976348
It’s not a mystery why his approval rating is 37% and Dems are leading by 10 on the generic ballot in our latest poll. Break enough promises and people start to notice

A lot of people genuinely think that "Congress should vote to block war with Iran" is how Democrats are signalling they support war with Iran, for reasons that I do not entirely understand.
