This is obviously a barb thrown at working women, but I think it's even more sinister than that.
Look at the right reaction to Rene Good, that she should have gone straight home for the sake of her child. You have babies, you don't need a voice in the public square!

Fascisme Internationale is a hell of a thing.
I hope it's not lost on anyone that the exact same motherfuckers on the Canadian right who spent decades wielding the idea of Canadian Patriotism like a cudgel, talking about "real Canadians", accusing every opponent of "hating Canada", are now pivoting to a platform of literal treason

What worries me is we’re stuck in this cycle of escalating crises up to the brink and then at the last second managing to avoid the worst possible scenario. But that’s a dangerous game and I can’t see how, eventually, one of these things doesn’t actually fully spiral out of control.

Vance in MN: "It's really cold outside. We in the Trump administration want to deport criminal aliens who are sex offenders. It takes a certain level of committed to sex offender criminal aliens to stand outside in -40 temperatures and attack the vice president, but they're committed to the bit."

NEVER ASSUME AMERICANS WILL READ FOR FUCKS SAKE!
Mueller admitted, more or less privately, that he assumed people would read his report and based on what it said, be like, "there is a lot of smoke, but we never found the gun or the body because of ALL THE OBSTRUCTION. YOU KNOW, THE CRIMES. BAD ONES."
we give garland a lot flak, and rightfully so, but looking jack smith's opening statement, i think we're all way too kind letting robert mueller slink back into the shadows

Back in the day, it wasn’t perfect, but a good teacher would push you *beyond* Zinn’s pop survey of US history, to deeper research, more complicating critiques and developments in understanding, and in further history beyond the book meant for high schoolers.
Social media truncates that process.

yeah the greater crime of Zinn-dom imo is convincing a lot of people that his adolescent midway point on the path of historical inquiry was some “mature” destination that you could stop at. Stunted a lot of people, more online than off.

JD Vance: "I didn't say that officers who engaged in wrongdoing would enjoy immunity. That's absurd. What I did say is that when federal law enforcement officers violate the law that's typically something federal officials would look into. We don't want these guys to have kangaroo courts."

I remain perplexed by Shapiro's apparent belief that attacking Kamala Harris, and on an issue where Shapiro is incredibly out of step with his party's base, will somehow catapult him to the presidency.

They sent the National Guard into Los Angeles last June to quell protests. ICE occupied Chicago for months last fall and fell back when the city resisted. Minnesota is preparing for the first statewide general strike in US history. Just to name a few instances of American resistance to fascism
The idea that there are no protests in the US and no one is standing up to Trump is proving incredibly hard to kill over here in Germany. It’s become dogma, utterly detached from empirical reality.
I wonder if the people who keep talking like that understand they’re perpetuating regime propaganda.
