Architecture and urban design are common fixations for strongmen. People keep posting Hitler’s Germania, but lots of more contemporary examples exist, like Orbán’s projects in Budapest.

So “antifa” is really “inflata” and is a bunch of people protesting in blow up costumes.

Tweet from Meidas_Charise Lee: “THIS IS THE COOLEST WAR ZONE EVER! Portland’s strategy… maybe if we act weird enough they’ll leave!”
Attached is a photo of people in colorful inflatable costumes dancing or moving playfully at night.

Mental health care for Vets needs to be prioritized. It is true, some people are sociopaths and we can't always save them, but at least we need the funding to try. I'm a psych nurse and spent some time working at a VA.
