You really dont get the full scope of adulting until your Mom dies. Yes, you can have a job, be raising kids all of that stuff, but when your Mom is around, you know you will always be held up by someone. When she's gone, that feeling of safety goes with her.
I dont think I'll ever get used to it.

We're truly lost as a people if we're using television, liquor, and fashion as hallmarks of a great man.

Watching all these centrist pundits stress the “civility” of Charlie Kirk’s style without addressing the ugliness of his substance is giving me a renewed appreciation of how the civil, polite White Citizens’ Councils conned the same crowd into thinking they were distinct from the cruder Klan.

Is it political violence to have masked law enforcement randomly round up Spanish speaking individuals at a car washes or Home Depot and ship them off to a foreign country with no due process? Is that considered “political violence” or nah?

Yall love to pretend that White people need to mimick some other group of non-white people in order to act out evil as if they can't be evil personified on their own! As if there isn't a millennia worth of examples of white people doing evil shit long before the Taliban ever existed. FOH!

Alex Aronson @alexaronson.bsky.social · Sep 6

White Christian Taliban shit right here.

Time to stop tiptoeing around it. These people are fanatics pursuing a Holy War. It’s a critical piece of the threat assessment that should inform our strategies. (Psst. They’re not just going to hand back power.)
