From California.

That's not my real name. Surprise, I'm also not Obama wearing Eazy-E's Compton hat and Locs either.

You need to pledge allegiance to whomever wins the '28 dem nominee (including Gavin if that's him).

All the jokes about Americans fighting wars in varied conditions has me thinking about how greeks used to create "thatched fields", cleared of all brush, before the battle.

They literally agreed on a clean battlefield between two armies about to battle.

Long history of this kinda soft.
DHS spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin on "acts of violence" against ICE agents in Minnesota: "Pouring water on the ground so that it would freeze the ground in front of our federal law enforcement vehicles so that they would potentially slide, crash, and potentially kill them"

What I’ve learned about American politics the last decade is there is an annoyingly sizable population that does not actually believe in anything and simply imprints on the latest thing they heard on the radio like a duckling

There's no overlap between the ages of "understands physical media" and "understands monthly payment consumerism": this never happened.

If anyone was still pretending this isn’t just about excluding trans kids from public life, the Trump administration just opened a Title IX investigation into a Maine school district because a trans student is on a *co-ed* cheerleading squad.

The U.S. Department of Education announced a slew of Title IX-related investigations this week that include 2 school districts in Maine.

People keep asking where the cops are. They’re here! They’re just protecting the feds! This is Tim Walz’s state patrol.
A fire truck just arrived on this side. State troopers protecting the intersection the feds are occupying.

"according to logic" is an evil trap that negates human emotion, which is not logical. Eugenics is logical. Racism is logical. Logic is cold, the very word he called the state.

Logic as a tool of societal structure is an evil selfish immoral concept. We call things common sense as a means of force.
The original Übermensch concept has nothing to do with biology. Put simply, it's someone who constructs their moral code & associated behavior patterns according to logic rather than tradition.

I hope average liberals start waking up to the fact that these types of statements from CBS et al. aren't about lying in the traditional sense of "getting away with" fooling anyone, but instead they're about assertions of power over reality itself: this is real "the party says 2+2=5" shit.
Zero percent chance this is true.

it's nice seeing someone's name in trending and knowing "oh he died didn't he" and then getting it confirmed.

what a feeling.

Kristi Noem, herself, supplied the method used to ID the agent. She said he "been dragged by a vehicle” in an earlier incident.

@startribune.com reporters, who know their way around court records, quickly unearthed his name and confirmed his identity.

Weird that there wasn't once a trending topic on bluesky about ICE shootings in the last few days.

I mean it isn't weird, I'm just saying it is out loud.

I wonder how much pressure ISPs could sustain if we started insisting they stop providing service for X.

I mean they can ban pornhub by the state. Literally, actually the exact same reasoning.

It's not like we couldn't do this.
banning X is a national security issue for every country, plain and simple

its explicit goal is to amplify and empower the largest Nazi-adjacent party in every country in which it operates

it is also the largest deepfake porn generator in the world

this is not a difficult call to make
This is the plain truth.

Honestly at this point, seeing that is on you

And fwiw I'm not judging nor letting anyone off the hook, but I am pointing out it's a choice to go look at what the Nazi ai does when you absolutely do not have to.
Just seen Grok putting the body of the victim of the ICE shooting in Minneapolis into a bikini. Digital corpse desecration now available to the public.

When he finally fuckin dies is when we need to be louder than ever, because they're going to lay this all at his feet to avoid taking the blame.

Governors. Lawmakers. Judges. Pundits. News anchors.

From the moment they announce he's fuckin dead, they all need to have their feet held to the fire.

The whole game of playing semantics to out-leftist each other is fucking tiring, it was tiring when it was just posters doing it, it's tiring when journalists do it.

reminder that the concept of "bear witness" as in "gotta watch all the bad videos yourself" is a goofy byproduct of the video age, and would be absolutely inscrutable to most people before like the 20th century
