Just because you feel like your day to day life may have not changed that much much doesn't mean that America hasn't changed dramatically under Trump. Authoritarianism is here, right now. We all need to be as clear eyed about it as @vermontgmg.bsky.social:

That’s because they’re already coming for us all. They’re operating as though they’re at war. Because they believe that they are.
Good to know they’re running a super tight ship and there’s no danger at all that they’ll eventually come for all of us www.wired.com/story/dhs-te...

🧵 THREAD: Why the Cato Institute’s new paper on “misinformation panic” is dangerously wrong, and why it completely misunderstands the real crisis we face.

The Misleading Panic over Misinformation
People can’t agree on how to define misinformation and its related terms, making regulation nearly impossible. Instead, free expression serves as a better tool for discovering truth.

Walz: "This cannot be the norm. It cannot be the way that we deal with our political differences. Now is the time for us to recommit to the core values of this country ... Talk to a neighbor rather than arguing. Debate an issue. Shake hands. Find common ground. This is who Melissa Hortman was."

To anyone accusing @belal2011.bsky.social of being a scammer:

I video called him and his siblings this morning, and we've exchanged videos as well.

Not only is this kid and his family real, but they're still smiling and fighting despite everything.

SHAME ON YOU if you've accused him!

The situation in Gaza remains intolerable.

Israel’s strikes in Gaza go beyond what is necessary.

Humanitarian aid must never be politicised or militarised.

Challenging the special status of Jerusalem risks further escalating tensions.
