the fact that you agree with his proscription of peaceful groups as terrorists.
the fact that you agree with his abuse of trans youth.

There is no part of the Trump project that Labour isn't enthusiastically pursuing, with the exception that rather than building new camps we are either repurposing military bases or sending people to other nations for holding.

Brits lesser evil-ed Starmer into power and in the UK we now have the erosion of trans and disability rights, an arming of genocide, a ramping up of anti immigration rhetoric in Labour circles, widespread facial ID, etc etc

Also, every establishment Dem who said illegal immigration was a problem during the Biden admin has some culpability for where we are now.
In a nutshell, the Dem lodestar should be: "ICE is bad, and immigration is good"
My theory of the moment: The extraordinary courage of ordinary people in places like Minneapolis is reawakening us to our social and economic ties to immigrants. It's making "love thy neighbor" cool again. That's the ultimate antidote to MAGA hate.

Also note the way that the burden is always, always placed upon the left; the right must be catered to, the center must be appealed to, the left? Suck it up, accept whatever is offered, perform the labor of care and capitulation and compromise.
A familiar dynamic.

One of the things language like this does is conveys the way that leftism is seen as feminized in america. Leftists are called “hysterical,” told we “throw tantrums,” and “are shrill and unreasonable.”
This is the language of cultural misogyny, used to denigrate and silence women.

This is—ironically enough—what I am talking about.
RW voters who demand their bigotries be accommodated are never "radical" or "throwing a tantrum." No—those are "swing voters" to pursue, even as they fail to show up time & again. The goal here isn't a bigger tent, but to prevent movement leftward.

Attempting to cancel elections, on top of scrapping jury trials, mandatory ID cards, criminalising peaceful protest and harassment of journalists is part of a disturbing authoritarian trend of this caretaker Prime Minister.

Not discounting my low opinion for the party generally, I am oddly enthused to vote for NDP leadership. I've never once lived in a provincial or federal riding where my electoral vote was of any consequence whatsoever.
This is basically the most consequential my vote has ever been.
