The relationship between Capitalism and Authoritarian govt are abusive.
There are 4 common factors enabling people to leave abusive relationships:
1. Recognizing the pattern of abuse.
2. Accepting support.
3. Protecting children.
4. Fear and exhaustion.

The hyperbole by the press escalates potential for IRL violence and grossly overstates the severity of conflict between people who are very much working in tandem to oppress the rest of us.

The entire US economy is propped up by a product so toxic and insidious that everyone has to go on a weekly scavenger hunt just to remove it from products they're already using.

Unless they've picked up guns to march on something they are not in fact "up in arms".
They might be mad, but they aren't "up in arms".

If you think about Israel as an American Ulster in the Middle East suddenly the direction of influence and power actually makes sense and you stop doing antisemitism and start doing anti-Zionism

The US is very much the senior partner in this relationship and thinking otherwise is crazy conspiracy stuff that conjures up old antisemitic tropes.
This is a good example of obvious bullshit and why conspiratorial antisemitism makes you dumb. No, it doesn’t actually make sense to think the DHS gov account is managed out of Israel. that’s actually a really stupid thing to think.

Trump is finding the degree of racist shit that white America won't laugh off.
For perspective, the last time a majority of white people voted for a Democratic candidate for president was in 1964 for Lyndon Johnson.

Some questions about the Alaska Permanent Fund:
1) Is the Alaska permanent fund a Socialist program?
2) Could another state (or county, or town) establish something similar (obviously not around fossil fuel development)?

If you would sacrifice Trans rights to take power then you cannot be trusted with power.
There clearly aren’t enough trans people who vote democrat to make up for the voters who left due to the support of trans rights. If there were, we wouldn’t have an orange idiot in the WH. We won’t be able to be a viable party as long as we so openly support trans rights.

We're not abandoning trans people. There are constituencies who depend on us for survival. Any party that would sacrifice a targeted minority will eventually betray every value it claimed to uphold and does not deserve to hold power. I hope you suffer the fate you wish on trans people.

The union is not the contract or the lawyers. The union is the solidarity among workers and an organized plan for how to respond to employer abuses.
"Workers’ greatest power has always been in direct action against employers. Legal remedies are just one tool in the broader struggle. Today, with the Board’s enforcement capacity under threat, the importance of shop floor power is clearer than ever." labornotes.org/blogs/2025/1...
Viewpoint: Attacks on U.S. Labor Rights Should Be an International Scandal
The National Labor Relations Board, the only federal agency charged with enforcing private-sector workers’ rights to organize and bargain collectively, is facing a constitutional crisis. On August 19, the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that the structure protecting NLRB administrative law judges (ALJs) and Board members from presidential removal violates the Constitution’s separation of powers. Workers’ greatest power has always been in direct action against employers. Legal remedies are just one tool in the broader struggle.
