I'm not as new to all of this as I look. 😉 I love sci-fi, music, new and different cultures and FOOD. Folks in the US, please, please travel more! There's a world of ideas out there waiting. ❤️

"This is an extraordinary moment and it requires extraordinary vision and actions. We must stop viewing political life through the lens of American politics as we have known it, and adopt the viewpoint of dissident movements in autocratic states."

Please read, so many important points made.

This piece from @jvl.bsky.social is one of the most important insightful I have read since January 20th 2025.

How to Think (and Act) Like a Dissident Movement

AOC, solidarity, and people power.

What does that even mean? They ARE the executive branch and that's their TEMPORARY facility they're using like a prison.

Being "interfered with" is called the law and order part of consequences for keeping people in a 💩hole and treating them as subhuman.

We strongly condemn @CondéNast’s consolidation plans for Teen Vogue, a move that is clearly designed to blunt the award-winning magazine’s insightful journalism at a time when it is needed the most. More from our statement:

Hmm, why is that, Forbes? Did you tell the whole truth about the guy or the privileged white guy version?

You do not *know* they were going to be TORTURED and your refusal to acknowledge the VERY REAL POINT is noted. Too bad people always have to right instead of fucking rational. That woman had no *reason* to murder it and IGNORED the requests of authorities, period.

Didn't SCOTUS rule they have no obligation to protect anyone... though we know when you're rich they do. 😠

This is beginning to feel damn ominous.

He's only looked 84 for twenty years and then, suddenly looked 104.

Do you ever imagine whether the dummy with the sign will ever admit to himself how wrong he was? 🤔

It really kinda does. I could totally hear Jerry and George arguing about it and then, Newman creeps in and reads them both to filth... dun, dun, dun. 🤣

I've said repeatedly that the news media's REFUSAL to cover Christian nationalism SERIOUSLY & thoroughly has perhaps been the single largest factor in why the US is witnessing an ongoing coup.

Well, that & their incessant sanewashing & slobbering over a demented old convicted felon & charity thief.

Jenny Cohn @jennycohn.bsky.social · 3h

WTF? @washingtonpost.com just published a profile about Chris Buskirk—who co-founded the Thiel-backed Rockbridge Network with JD Vance—that omitted Buskirk’s ties to American Reformer, self-professed Christian Nationalist William Wolfe, & Wolfe’s Center for Baptist Leadership. 1/

I guess when bomb threats are thwarted, swatting is the next "best" thing. They really will stoop to ANYTHING.

schlotrvlr.bsky.social @schlotrvlr.bsky.social · 3h

Nope, not "definitely". Some of the monkeys were recaptured. And, it matters to people thinking rationally how they met their death. People should not be running around opening fire on wild animals from the safety of their homes when authorities ASKED PEOPLE to report them.

schlotrvlr.bsky.social @schlotrvlr.bsky.social · 3h

Has this sort of thing always happened or is it a 21st century anomaly? 🥴

There's a high likelihood that there's a photo of her on the uni website, LinkedIn or somewhere that isn't her mugshot, but leave it to FOX to demonize someone speaking the damn truth about a GOP war criminal, right?

schlotrvlr.bsky.social @schlotrvlr.bsky.social · 3h

Pulling out a gun in own your home while you're IN NO DANGER to kill an escaped animal is fucking mental, whether animal testing needs to banned or not. This is not the flex you seem to think it is.

schlotrvlr.bsky.social @schlotrvlr.bsky.social · 3h

Why are you posting FOX, as if anything they have to say about criticisms of ANY GOP isn't absolute 💩?

schlotrvlr.bsky.social @schlotrvlr.bsky.social · 3h

Umm, authorities can handle it, not someone pulling out a gun for the kicks of killing a monkey themselves.

Saw those same basic posts here & gave them a piece of my mind - otherwise known as facts. He was a miserable prick who enjoyed the pain of people he didn't like & started this country down the road its on. (Though, I largely attribute Nixon’s henchmen & his subsequent pardon as the real beginning)

Maybe read the piece, because it seems you're not very familiar with the OP's general position on the mayoral candidate.
