I'm going to start a thing where if anyone leaves a pedantic reply l'm just gonna talk about something I want to talk about instead of whatever they're blathering on about. If you criticize my punctuation you're gonna hear about Dragon Ball Z


Hell does "pedantic" mean?

A post on X by Mehdi Hasan (@mehdirhasan
) expresses frustration, asking how anyone can read a definition of fascism and not be alarmed, emphasizing that it is happening now. The post includes a quote from Cody Johnston (@drmistercody
) from one day ago, defining fascism as a form of political behavior marked by an obsessive preoccupation with community decline, humiliation, or victimhood, and compensatory cults of unity, energy, and purity. The definition describes a mass-based party of nationalist militants working with traditional elites, abandoning democratic liberties, and pursuing redemptive violence for internal cleansing and external expansion without ethical or legal restraints.

Oh yes, this is clearly now.

Republicans don’t need a single democratic vote to fund their regime. Here’s why. Please share widely.

If you were in the room during Hegseth and Trump's speech, and you'd like to share your response anonymously, reach out to me on Signal (in bio.) Share widely.

"Dems will get blamed for a shutdown" as opposed to what, all the friendly coverage and positive credit they'd get for caving yet again? This whole premise is built on a delusion about what the alternative is. There's no cowering in the corner and being so inoffensive they won't still attack you.

I find it weird that people are painting Mamdani as an extreme outsider.

The US govt. has taken ownership positions in major US companies like Intel (and soon TikTok).

Mamdani wants to open a city-run grocery store to sell cheap groceries.

And you're telling me the second is a radical socialist.

I like Jimmy Kimmel. I really do. I have no issues with him.

I'm talking about something very different.

Kimmel was only suspended. But he's back now. Karen Attiah and all the other Black journalists are still fired.

Y'all do know how to fight, when you want to.

But you don't really want to. πŸ€·πŸΏβ€β™‚οΈ

It says a lot about America that we must have a national day of mourning by POTUS and his staff for an assassinated political talking head, but when 20 grade school children are assassinated while sitting in their school we can only muster thoughts and prayers.

Disney trying to bait the nerds into watching a Star Wars Trailer instead of apologizing for being dicks to Jimmy Kimmel is funny

For every 1Β°C increase in global temperature, the atmosphere can hold approximately 7% more moisture.

We’ve known this for 175 years.

Many more football games are going to be abandoned in the coming years.

If I remember correctly there used to be a show called Info Wars and the host whose name I don't recall talked at great length about how the slaughter of children was just a bunch of actors and not a real thing. I don't recall the FCC getting involved with this.

Luckily, Sinclair has a helpful database of all their stations, so you can see if they're operating in your area and respond accordingly.

last night as i was trying to wind down for bed i had a unified theory of what the fuck just happened, and i wrote it down, and filed it under "well, i can't talk about this on main without sounding insane until and unless the perp gets caught and is provably a groyper"

anyways, great news! (1/X)

Whether it's freaking out about the new Cracker Barrel logo or some other bogeyman, remember this:
The GOP's nonsensical culture wars are meant to distract you from corporate corruption, worker oppression, and staggering wealth inequality.
They want you fighting a culture war so you don't fight a class war.
