"It took immense courage to create our constitutional republic, and now immense cowardice is placing our system of justice under threat."
-- David French, New York Times

Yes they are all psychopaths. If you work for ICE today you're un-American, because you de facto support fascism.

Bellamy J. Heap @bellamyjheap.bsky.social · 1d

Fascists always project what they truly think and want, e.g. they hate America the way it was pre-Trump and they're the terrorists violating our laws and system of government to force change. Them flipping their sentiments on to democratic Americans is oh so clever, don't ya think?

"... violated a crime." You mean committed justice?

www.nytimes.com/2025/10/11/u... A good thing Trump sent troops to those warzones in Portland and Chicago.

My heart goes out to the loved ones of those killed.

It no longer serves any purpose to talk about the Supreme Court and the Trumpublicans shredding the Constitution. We're beyond that. Democrats need to talk about restoring government BY THE PEOPLE. We have to look forward to a new compact between our representatives, justice system, and citizens.

By all means, Dems, lets hand even more authoritarian means to THIS administration so they can censor us more easily. Think of the kids! (Who won't have healthcare, good educations, any future potential, and will continue to be manipulated by Mega Tech because you can't pass simple privacy laws.)

Good God it's like an abbatoir there! Drop the nukes!

It is an astonishing marketing achievement. A musical achievement? History will decide that.

Bellamy J. Heap @bellamyjheap.bsky.social · 2d

The first thing we should do if the people ever regain control over the government again is to eliminate ICE and arrest and prosecute those that committed crimesb in the name of duty to the fullest extent of the law.

Well less safe for ordinary people. But billionaires hiding in their compounds with military grade security will be just fine. And that is all who matter to this administration. That farmer in Kansas can go buy a gun if they're worried.

Because the truth is the opposite, and doesn't serve his authoritarian goals.

Truth is inconvenient to the implementation of fascism.

Douthit abandoned his moderate conservatism the second he realized the Republican Party was swinging fascist and he could be targeted for party disloyalty. If you can't beat them then pretend to see benefits in authoritarianism.

Trader Joe's Exec1: we'll sell lots of really good stuff at good prices

Exec2: that doesn't sound at all evil. We're a big company, we're supposed to be evil

Founder1: we are going to have the most inadequate, cramped, badly designed parking lots in the fucking world

Founder2: ok that works

That's a real deal for a $400M plane as a down on investment. It costs us taxpayers billions to build them over there.

I hope so. Evidently the original copy of the Constitution is too faded for those blind justices to read.

Being a billionaire means the ability to either buy or bully anyone who says otherwise to you.

Of course she has plenty of integrity: she will always do what Trump orders 100% of the time without fail, and with no regard for anything else. Don't question her impartiality, because she will do so without any partiality to anyone else. Trump will always get her fair attention.

Bellamy J. Heap @bellamyjheap.bsky.social · 7d

His problem is that of all fascists, in that reliability is too damning of the falsities they need to spread to get and keep power. Truth gets in the way of implementing an authoritarian state.

You expected restraint from a tech company?

Bellamy J. Heap @bellamyjheap.bsky.social · 7d

Truth just gets in the way of fascism.

Republicans brought the Senate back today to block our bill to lower health care costs and end the shutdown, and to insist on their bill to deprive millions of their health care.

Meanwhile, Republicans in the House decided to remain on vacation.
