This is everything any foreigner needs to understand in order to make sense of the USA's self-defeating brand of insanity. #USCollapse

As I detailed in WHITE FLIGHT, segregationists in Atlanta absolutely loved public services -- buses and trolleys, parks and pools, golf courses and tennis courts, etc. -- right until they were forced to desegregate and "stolen" from them. They abandoned them and built up private alternatives.

For a moment there I thought you were talking about Hakeem, and I was totally agreeing. He's a bigger fraud than Trump because at least Trump wears his shameless cuntery on his fucking sleeve. #USCollapse

They're not clueless. They're complicit. They know exactly who they serve. #USCollapse

A grim reminder: these people will never be satisfied. There’s no point at which they will say “we’ve won, let’s enjoy life.” They will always be looking for someone else to punish, to revile, to dehumanize. They’re empty without that.

Congressional hearings don’t do shit except make it LOOK like they’re doing something. The J6 committee hearings were some of the best I’ve seen & they led NOWHERE. They give false hope. Right now all branches of government have been stolen. This political theater is part of how we got here.

If we transported 2025 Charlie Kirk back to 2012 he would have been widely considered the most vile and contemptible human being in politics, worse even than Limbaugh. That he wasn't in 2025 is a testament to how much of a permission structure for gutter racism the right has built.

I shouldn't be shocked, but I'm still always brought up short to realize how many people think "civility" means "white people speaking in relatively calm voices" no matter what vile shit they say.

Something gloaty and unwelcome about posts like this. Also, was it really that great if you hadn't shared it on social media? Or does it make it better that we get to see it as a 2x3inch reproduction on our phones? #pointless

Watching all these centrist pundits stress the “civility” of Charlie Kirk’s style without addressing the ugliness of his substance is giving me a renewed appreciation of how the civil, polite White Citizens’ Councils conned the same crowd into thinking they were distinct from the cruder Klan.

Being fatally shot in the neck doesn't change what you were. He was a bigoted piece of shit while alive and no less so now he's dead. #CharlieKirk

Happy to see this utter piece of shit dead. Recommend the video. #FuckCharlieKirk

I enjoyed watching the close up footage on loop more than just about anything I've ever seen. He flopped like the soggy little bitch that he is. Most satisfying.
