To understand Hegseth’s announcement of impunity for misconduct, you must understand that Eddie Gallagher is the model. This is what he means by “warrior ethos.” Trump may have even selected Hegseth because of his similar appearance to Gallagher.

the administration is being cute about it now, but a funny thing about the Hegseth double tap reporting is that he made a lengthy huffy comment after the story published. He had a chance to deny it, and say (or lie even) I never said this. This isn’t a trick question, he coulda done that. He didn’t!

Everyone is getting upset about the data centers. They pollute a lot and use a lot of energy and will eventually be very ugly/huge vacant buildings. And I understand being mad about that. Until you consider the state of the lazer tag industry at this moment, and how much help that sector needs.

The idea that anarchists created the 8-hour day, as opposed to the CIO and the New Deal, is complete ahistorical bullshit. 99.9% of the workers involved in the 1886 8-hour day protests with the Knights of Labor were not anarchists. In fact, the Knights loathed the anarchists.
You’re confused, again. We’re proud of our combatants. The price paid in dynamite & repression by the anarchist mvmnt freed us from 12 hr. shifts, 6 days p/week. In fact, if we’re inching back towards that reality it’s because the labor mvmnt. has become defanged, thanks to narratives like yours.
