Think back to the East Palestine Ohio train derailment, in the immediate aftermath of that conservative to straight out Nazi orgs attempted to do entryism and unfortunately there was a segment of people who were unable to see how the right was talking about this and essentially bought in
Fox News weaponizes the East Palestine train derailment for the white grievance crowd
The same people who hate on Democrats for making "everything about race" are once again race-baiting.

Then you've got people who do know what they are saying like a Cynthia McKinney type. I don't think it is a coincidence that you see significant overlap with conspiratorial beliefs - she is a COVID conspiracist along with 9/11 etc.

I think people who closely track far right and fascist movements are on a whole, better at recognizing this type of stuff - in part because the tropes and memes and shit all emerge from the same cesspool.

Pointing out antisemitism on the left is one of the most annoying experiences one can have on Bluesky, not only do you get actual antisemites in your replies but also other leftists who are reflexively defensive and who bristle at the slightest critique.

I went and did care work for rapid responders and front line mutual aid people in Minneapolis last week and I’m trying to figure out how we could scale that up to bigger than just me when I can pull it off.
Secondary ring of care is how we reduce and distribute burnout. Caring for your neighbors means you then need care as well.
Care providers need a secondary ring of care provision for themselves and I think us less impacted rural folks could be a good back fill.

I wish we had a good way of fielding a volunteer powered national relief force for all of the people out there and all of the businesses that don't feel safe to open
I’m seeing more and more Minneapolis/Minnesota people naming that they are burned out and I just hope people allow themselves to change their pacing from sprint to marathon or better yet, a relay.
Slow down if the alternative is you crashing out and not being able to do anything.

Like I said a couple years ago, leftist antisemitism is getting worse. Like, we're at the Naming The Jew stage and next I guess will be the triple parentheses

There is a real strong relationship between hatred for Ukraine and hatred for women so seeing them in combo isn't surprising.

tu quoque isn't even a real logical fallacy! It's just a thing anti-communists came up with during the 1950s!
"whataboutism" isn't a real thing, it's a concept invented by anti communist journalists to deny the real criticisms of the jim crow south that communists were using in the 50s lol

I for one think it is not good to speculate on crimes we basically know nothing about
For some reason, I'm thinking about how aggressively Savannah Guthrie has interviewed Trump. During an October 2020 town hall, she took him to task for spreading conspiracy theories, COVID, and election denial. She scolded: "You're not like someone's crazy uncle who can just retweet whatever." 🤔

They didn't even charge him with threats against feds lol - his crime is shit talking a fascist on the Internet
NEW: The Trump admin publicized the arrest of an "antifa domestic terrorist," implying he was charged with threatening federal agents. But the criminal complaint suggests Kyle Wagner was charged with Instagram beefing with controversial rightwing agitator Jayden Scott.

That's gonna be tough for you because I attended a screening of a propaganda film by Oliver Stone titled Ukraine on Fire that was attended and promoted by local DSA members - including some very long time members.

The mix up here is that they make threats and then they get compliance eventually in many cases. I too am frustrated the govt seems to get lots of chances to do what the court orders without punishment.
