It just dawned on me that I forgot Bill Clinton was a president. Was in my lifetime too (barely). I picture him presidenting and it feels like I'm watching an actor in a movie, don't have that problem with any of the rest.

Fascists spend all their time sanding off every possible feature of their personality that could individualize them, which makes them more fungible than average.

This is how I explain it to myself when there's a yet another new right wing character with their own following that I've never seen

Not to be the well ackshually girl, but when it comes to whether or not what you were doing was "resisting" in an encounter with LE of any stripe:

It depends entirely on the officer's feelings at the time towards you, not what you were doing - anything can be "resisting" if they feel inclined.
Filming the police is not obstruction.

Filming the police is not resisting.

Refusing to stop filming police is not resisting.

Holding onto your phone is not resisting.

Federal agents under this admin have zero respect for rights and liberties.

If people aren’t allowed to vote for a third party without fascism easily consolidating there were already problems in the system that would lead to fascism regardless of so and so’s individual choice
Not in the general, it's not. Refusing to vote or voting 3rd party (in a contested district) is just an abdication of responsibility that allows the most harmful option to come to pass. It absolutely betrays everyone who wouldn't be hurt if harm reduction wins. We have to use the primaries.

Malcolm McDowell was in one of those Silent Hill movies and clearly didn’t know what the fuck was going on but I remember seeing an interview with him being like “yes I’m very much like Polonius from Hamlet” and hell yes, lie to me Malcolm McDowell, make Pyramid Head seem very serious

This is the single funniest excuse he could have come up with for not wanting to be booed in public
President Donald Trump will not be attending Super Bowl LX on Feb. 8 in Santa Clara, Calif., he said in an interview with the New York Post.

“It’s just too far away,” he said.

Wrote about him in TNR, prior to Renee Good. Remarkably similar incident. He’d just dropped off his kid. They rushed his car. He tried to flee. Cops then claimed he tried to run them over, despite video evidence to the contrary.

Should’ve been a warning.

Realizing I probably developed Pathological Demand Avoidance in part because every complement I got growing up was just an excuse for the other person to be mediocre.

I don't like looking down on people especially when they're supposed to be teaching me but sometimes the TAs and Professors I get for my masters make it very clear that they've never been in an organization where they HAD to reliably convey step by step technical instructions to another human being

International law no longer serves as an instrument of global stability—and the U.S. should use this moment to argue for a different approach to the rules of war, John Yoo argues.

There's a good reason a lot of kids in the US aren't taught much about Malcolm X beyond trying to paint him as an extremist or terrorist.

Conceptually, he and men like him were a key piece of the civil rights movement, and perhaps the one the hegemon would most rather not exist.
The man meant it when he said that a riot was the language of the unheard, it turns out.

I do not hold out hope for defectors nor do I personally have the capacity to view them as redeemed.

But the *population* on the whole would be willing to forget a lot about someone who pulled every lever to help dismantle this machine before getting out of politics entirely.

The comments to donors last year are some of the harshest criticisms of Trump and Vance by a fellow Republican.

I actually love how every institution no matter how official basically makes demands that you install a bunch of fucking malware on your computer to participate, it's super cool. I'm glad I can't take a test without giving a full 360 video scan of my office
