If you accuse me of wanting to look morally superior when I say a political party or person did something bad, then you're just admitting that I'm right about them doing something bad.

It's wild that you think money is nothing in elections.

Until All of Us Are Free @solidarity5ever.bsky.social · 7h

The Democratic Party recruited Mills and yet you called it a conspiracy. And now you're saying no shit. And you seem to have no idea at all about how much money the party has and how much that can influence an election. If Mills wins the primary and loses the general then they were wrong.

Obama getting a Nobel Peace Prize and not Trump is funny enough, but it's hilarious when you know that Kissinger got one too.

News: Bari Weiss just sent a memo to staffers at CBS News asking them to produce a memo explaining "how you spend your working hours—and ideally, what you've made (or are making) that you're most proud of."

One CBS News staffer puts it like this to me: "We just got Elon Musked."

idk, i think asking a foreign dictator to invade your country and do a regime change isn’t very democracy coded

A post on twitter from María Corina Machado with the following content:
This recognition of the struggle of all Venezuelans is a boost to conclude our task: to conquer Freedom.
We are on the threshold of victory and today, more than ever, we count on President Trump, the people of the United States, the peoples of Latin America, and the democratic nations of the world as our principal allies to achieve Freedom and democracy.
I dedicate this prize to the suffering people of Venezuela and to President Trump for his decisive support of our cause!

Cory Doctorow calls this the “Enshitocene,” the era where everything online turns to crap. Once users can’t leave, exploitation becomes the business model. Monopoly power makes decline profitable.

Why the Internet Keeps Getting Worse with Cory Doctorow

Cory Doctorow joins me to talk about his new book Enshitification, a deep dive into how the internet went from a space built on openness and creativity to one dominated by corporate control. We get into the pattern behind it all—how platforms lure people in, trap them, then slowly extract every ounc

If you take St John's Wort you should look up tyramine because it can send you to the hospital with extremely high blood pressure. Like insanely high. Sometimes called a cheese crisis. Stop laughing. Cocaine can block the interaction but you shouldn't... STOP LAUGHING!

Kristi Noem, while governor of South Dakota, supplemented her roughly $130,000 salary by secretly accepting $80,000 donated to a political nonprofit she was affiliated with, records show.

She never disclosed this income on federal ethics forms.

No... Israel is far more violent, destructive, murderous, it's also got a lot more support and arms. Diplomatic cover has allowed it to continue it's mass murder spree for years.

Israel is objectively way way worse than ISIS.

I donated some copies of Let This Radicalize You for distribution at an ICE watch training for folks who want to join school patrols in a nearby neighborhood. Not everyone got a copy, because 120 people showed up for that training tonight. I am endlessly proud of Chicago.

A display of copies of Let This Radicalize You on a table in front of a sign that reads: "Let This Radicalize You offers stories, strategy and heart for the kind of collective care and resistance we're building together today. It helps us move from reacting to organizing. Showing how ordinary people protect each other, build power, and keep hope alive. Take a copy. Read it. Stay connected."

I've long maintained absurdity is a viable protest strategy. It's not the only one, and it's not always appropriate, but fascists hate life. And life is absurd.

Adam Serwer @adamserwer.bsky.social · 23h

Can you put into words what that purpose is? You and the frog have really become icons of this protest.

There’s been a nice overall whimsy that has shown up. The frog is amazing. We had a bunch of other inflatable people here last night, too. I saw people playing Twister the other day.

What they rely on is fear. So by coming out in an absurdist manner, it speaks to them, to some extent, that we’re actually not that afraid.

It also dismantles their narrative a little bit. When they try to describe this situation as “war-torn,” it becomes much harder to take them seriously when they have to post a video saying [U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security] Kristi Noem is up on the balcony staring over the Antifa Army and it’s, like, eight journalists and five protesters and one of them is in a chicken suit.

a lot of people are finally waking up to the importance of the 3rd amendment. As a 3A absolutist, i think it should be illegal for soldiers to be quartered anywhere in this country. they should be camping under the open sky at all times. all military bases and barracks are unconstitutional.

Capitalism rewards an in-group and treats everyone else as expendable. In the US that in-group is white Christians. Owen and I talked about how that system of exclusion sustains itself.
