i don't operate like that so i'm one of the ones who asked mom "why'd they do that to them" over + over again when i was little

older, i feel sorry mom had to guard that fucking goal

she tried
she used "god gave humans free will" + psychology (Maslow, Kohlberg) stuff + lit
so i'd not be "they"

just saw it

i'll never understand why Loomer, Stevie Miller, and Weiss--and others like them--lick the steel-toed neo-Aryan boots of people who are proudly anti-Jewish

cults are weird and attractive to weak critical thinkers with no self esteem who feel better when others suffer too

This idiot keeps bragging about the 20 hostages being released in another country while he's kidnapping thousands of people a day here in America.

Fuck him and the fascism he rode in on.

A thing frequently forgotten or ignored is that journalism is one of the few professions people will die for. [Via @brianstelter.bsky.social ]

Opinion: Why I'm handing in my Pentagon press pass

Tom Bowman has held his Pentagon press pass for 28 years. He says the Pentagon's new media policy makes it impossible to be a journalist, which means finding out what's really going on behind the scen...

"having a longer history as democracy" is not exactly a ringing endorsement for what current Americans have let happen on our watch

that notion is not reassuring to people like me; it highly illuminates just how bad things are

i suppose people not well-versed in US history might not get it

i'm American and my family is Native American on one line and English who settled the Ohio River Valley on the other

America is in a Constitutional Crisis and this is the worst condition of our nation since pre-bellum

we might make it
question is: how and at what cost for how long and for whom?

i don't talk in circles

you simply can't comprehend

and, like a middle schooler, you have a tantrum with cussing

exactly the American baby we need less of

grow up, jimbird

kidulting has made a mess of the US

Olde Stuffe @annalsofwarren.bsky.social · 5h

critiquing a comment not directed at you is haughtiness

as if

sparsely-sentenced posts are long winded?

are you part of that 54% i keep hearing about + seeing demonstrated every minute in America?

why does it hurt your feels so that i think we're losing to MAGA/GOP?

ahh, because you're MAGA

Olde Stuffe @annalsofwarren.bsky.social · 5h

you bet i have a lot to say

i'm not one of the dum dums

i care about my country so i speak truthfully

see how well lying about condition worked for Germany in WWI

and for the rest of the world in the 20 years that followed

oh, that might be too long-winded for ya tho

reading + thinking + all

it's funny to hear you stuck in whatever the MSM is doing

seems lost on you that activist groups + local chapters put out schedules of state-wide protests + other resistance efforts, and that we can see these schedules + note that resistance vs. how much the GOP has accomplished aren't equal

calling a person an idiot when you've never met them + don't really understand their position, you just "feel" it rubs you wrong, is EXACTLY the kind of attitude that helps America persist in its mire

Americans are selfish + undereducated
these traits are MAGA fuel
and this is the country i live in

Olde Stuffe @annalsofwarren.bsky.social · 5h

also, jimbird, when i blame, i always start with myself and others who deserve blame

the American people have done this to themselves

i find when i am honest about problems and my role in causing them, i get to solutions pretty god damn quick

AA seems to espouse this, too, so maybe i'm not dumb

"is that way so many Americans have altered their normal lives for a minute to resist?"
sarcasm
no national protest in Sept, never mind do anything that is voluntary discomfort

people get upset at messengers

condition of America is not well despite there's more of us than there are MAGA (i think)

yes, actually they did expect Johnson, and Trump

please do not blame the laziness and selfishness of the current American citizenry on our past

we know better than any generation before us what happened

we've no excuse other than we chose to let it

our Founders gave guidance

WE'VE ignored it
