Scatter Good, Fight Fascism

This made me laugh then throw up in my mouth a little.

If you were a journalist or creative that was laid off by the Washington Post and you want to work for an independent, pro democracy news outlet, Democracy Docket is hiring. bit.ly/45Qaw4K

And know this, the day will come when all these skirmishes and battles, these moments of defiance will have flooded the banks of the Empire’s authority and then there will be one too many. One single thing will break the siege. Remember this. Try." - Nemik's Manifesto /5 /fin

The Imperial need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. Remember that. /4

There are whole armies, battalions that have no idea that they’ve already enlisted in the cause. Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward. And then remember this. /3

Alone, unsure, dwarfed by the scale of the enemy. Remember this. Freedom is a pure idea. It occurs spontaneously and without instruction. Random acts of insurrection are occurring constantly throughout the galaxy. /2

I generally prefer to write my own words to sum up how I'm feeling, but.. every time I see this speech, it hits me hard. And I want to keep posting and reposting it until the world unites behind this ideal.

"There will be times when the struggle seems impossible. I know this already. /1

This sign's maker understood the assignment.

Hey Hakeem, you can’t “deport” a US citizen. So maybe grow some and stand up to Trump, you coward.

No work, no school, no shopping: Jan. 30 nationwide general strike to protest ICE gains celebrity endorsements Minnesotans stayed home from work and took to the streets to protest ICE on Jan. 23. Now, activists want to take it nationwide.

Tomorrow, in whatever capacity you can, don't:
- Work
- Spend
- Go to school
- Participate in the economy in any way

It’s certainly more possible for your average user than it’s been, but still a ways to go for easy adoption. Bazzite and similar distros are a move in the right direction.

Great. Now Democrats/DNC really need to start welcoming progressives and social democrats into the fold and stop kowtowing to corporate interests. Read this room and the country. As a life long democrat, I’d like to see the party represent people, not companies.

Are people ready to fight back yet? This is the face of America until we do. #antifa #abolishice

Thanks to the AP for accurately titling their post. “Murder” would make it more accurate, but better than the chickenshit New York Times.

As a former Maryland resident, I’ve been singularly unimpressed with Governor Moore. If he’s finally showing some spine and backing up words with actions, I’d love to re-evaluate my opinion of him.

This.

To my friends here who are in CA District 26, beware of Kyle Langford, this Nazi, Pro Auschwitz MAGA who has flipped from Republican to Democrat to run for this seat. Don’t let this happen! Please repost this everywhere.

Because they only represent the rich, and honestly have since the 70s at least. They think that is the only way to prosperity for the US, despite decades of data that show it only benefits the hyper rich.

AOC: I want everybody to understand that the cuts to your health care are what’s paying for this. You get screwed over to pay a bunch of thugs in the street that are shooting mothers in the face.

Bridgefy. Signal. Tor. Today’s activists don’t just encrypt for secrecy — they encrypt for survival. Because silence is never safe. And every whisper says: We’re still here.

The latest Atlas poll shows that people really don't trust corporate media. So come check out some indie media today at Noon PT / 3 PM ET on the @meidastouch.com YouTube channel. Here's a link. I'll be interviewing Epstein Survivor Annie Farmer. See you there! www.youtube.com/live/IToZ_0r...

THIS is what makes my head spin: The president is not a moral figure in any idiom, any land, any culture, any subculture. I'm not talking about the liberal enlightenment that would make him want the country to take care of the poor and sick. I mean he has no Republican values either. He has no honor among thieves, no cosa nostra loyalty, no Southern code against cheating or lying, none of the openness of New York, rectitude of Boston, expressiveness and kindness of California, no evangelical family values, no Protestant work ethic. No Catholic moral seriousness, no sense of contrition or gratitude. No Jewish moral and intellectual precision, sense of history. He doesn't care about the life of the mind OR the life of the senses. He is not mandarin, not committed to inquiry or justice, not hospitable. He is not proper. He is not a bon vivant who loves to eat, drink, laugh. There's nothing he would die for - not American values, obviously, but not the land of Russia or his wife or young

son. He has some hollow success creeds from Norman Vincent Peale, but Peale was obsessed with fair-dealing and a Presbyterian pastor; Trump has no fairness or piety. He's not sentimental; no affection for dogs or babies. No love for mothers, "the common man"" veterans. He has no sense of military valor, and is openly a coward about war. He would have sorely lacked the pagan beauty and capacity to fight required in ancient Greece. He doesn't care about his wife or wives; he is a philanderer but he's not a romantic hero with great love for women and sex. He commands loyalty and labor from his children not because he loves them, even; he seems almost to hate them — and if one of them slipped it would be terrifying. He does no philanthropy. He doesn't - in a more secular key - even seem to have a sense of his enlightened self-interest enough to shake Angela Merkel's hand. Doesn't even affect a love for the arts, like most rich New Yorkers. He doesn't live and die by aesthetics and health practices like some fascists; he's

very ugly and barely mammalian. Am I missing an obscure moral system to which he so much as nods? Also are there other people, living or dead, like him?

She’s a fucking psycho.

Why is Megyn Kelly such an enormous piece of psychopathic shit?

Half gallon of milk and a pint of cream, $11.78 in Orange County. Glad inflation is coming down.

Twitter screenshot: foone @Foone friendly reminder since this is going around again: DO NOT EAT THE RICH! it's called bio-magnification, people! the rich are at the top of the food chain, so they accumulate toxins from their food at a greatly increased rate. Instead, /compost/ the rich.

Anyone messaging you that thinks the DOJ in this regime has any independence of thought or action from what Trump and his cabal want aren’t paying any attention. It’s not subtle, people.
