Head of French Collaborationist Press Sentenced to Death On 24 January 1946, Jean Luchaire, former editor-in-chief of Les Nouveaux Temps newspaper, was sentenced to death, stripped of his civil rights and had his property confiscated by the French High Cour...

Remembering what the French did to Vichy journalists and editors, as a treat

On Indigenous Peoples Day I always recommend checking out this website/interactive map to understand the non-colonial history of the land you occupy

Hell yes 💜💜💜

She knows how to call in an Israeli air strike that killed a whole Palestinian family you fucking kook

I live my life as hard as I can, and try to do good with it, because I expect to go out “under the bus”… this video definitely touches so many emotions for the attention and testimony it gives to the truth of that.

Absolutely second this. Started listening just this year and in the midst of a very tough patch of grief. Having so many incredible episodes to binge really helped get me through it. I think about it every time I hear the opening music 💜

Made me cry too.

This is a great write-up. Thank you.

Oregon National Guard Adjutant General, General Gronewold says if they are federalized, that he will advise the Title 10 commander to utilize National Guard Troops to PROTECT protesters at ICE facilities. This is the right answer.

We’re concerned with Newsom because he’s a fucking snake and has palled around with fascists and parroted their transphobia.

You fucking mark.

live your life in such a way that if the massively rich power elite of a society put their whole propaganda arm into making you the next st francis after you’re assassinated, people want to hold your memory at least as long as the fuckable green m&m or that time a transsexual sipped a light beer.

Reported. Thank you for sounding the alarm

I know it’s too much to hope for in this nightmare attention economy, but it would really be encouraging if this had some consequences when they return to American venues. Heckling campaigns, cancelled gigs, ongoing public embarrassment.

Resign dickhead

Today is apparently suicide prevention day and I want to remind people: UBI is suicide prevention. Universal health care is suicide prevention. Mental health care is suicide prevention. Patient advocacy and adequate disability resources are suicide prevention. Gun control is suicide prevention.

So so sick (as always)

Shaddup idiot

Under the Big Black Sun by John Doe/Tom Desavia is pretty good. John Doe kind of strings it together but there are lots of guest author chapters that cover the scene in pretty good detail. There are chapters by members of the Brat and the Zeroes if I remember correctly.

i have to say, as a trans journalist who has covered the "trans debate" for about a decade now, there is no daylight between how the trump administration and conservatives lie about tylenol and autism and how they've lied about youth trans care.

yet yall wanna say trans people are the violent ones.

this, too, is political violence

"Apparently middle grounds only run through people’s bodies." - Poor and marginalized people's bodies, specifically.

That’s been widely reported for months. I’m glad you managed to notice it but it says something that you think that it’s breaking news. It makes me wonder if you have sufficient knowledge of this subject to be arguing with trans people that were doing it wrong

As I’ve said repeatedly you’re just wrong here. You’re making process arguments about resisting a genocide and blaming the victims of genocidal violence for sharing important (if poorly reported) information about its undertaking. It would be hard to find a WORSE example of praxis than that.

You seem to be conflating trans people reacting to a story he broke with us supporting him and his methods. We are simply responding to what appears to be a very real escalation by the administration regardless of who got the scoop. I don’t understand why this is hard to understand

Yes but telling trans people they should not feel threatened because the cis person who broke the story about the threat imperfectly headlined his fucking story is deeply unhelpful in a myriad of ways. Go bother him about his headline. Don’t tell us the bad headline obviates our need for vigilance

If you have an axe to grind with Ken go harass him. I would encourage that. Taking out your frustrations with him on trans people who are genuinely worried about our safety FOR GOOD REASON is not helpful in any fucking way.

Look: based on your arguments here I don’t think you’re an ally at this point. You should reflect on that maybe. It would be a better use of your time than continuing this nonsense

Yes I want cis people to take the threats against us seriously and use their privilege and political power to stop this threat against us. And I don’t think we need to have an absolutely bulletproof and thorough knowledge of the precise threat to ask for that. Do you?
