Hitlerism despises the rural & working masses the same way that radical liberalism does

Hitler is anti-popular anarchism in disguise.

Not necessarily. Sometimes you gotta show others what foolish people say
It can be a teaching moment

I found a really nice Kenneth Cole shirt on the sidewalk. My rent is 300/month.
But I live in public housing. Had to debug the shirt but it's really decent

You gently run your hand through the rack. You can feel it—pure cotton, rich wool, Irish linen. The plump buttonholes are handsewn; the buttons attached with a firm shank. You flip the price tag over. It's affordable

You buy the jacket and go home, which is only 15 mins away. Your apt is $600/month

Griem goes there, arguing in response to Justice Jackson that there can be no race-conscious remedy absent a finding of intentional discrimination.

This is to protect the workers, shit heel.
If they let you in before the stated time, others will want in, earlier and earlier, it happens every time.
The workers should not be expected to serve you one second before the stated time. Get bent

Give me a break, Mike. The opposite is true, and you damn well know it.

You call it “historic and heroic,” but what you’re really bragging about is Project 2025, a Heritage Foundation blueprint to gut democracy, hand unchecked power to one man, and erase social programs.

So are there NO actual police forces to protect a state from terrorism and invasion? Apparently, our Democratic states just have no options. We’re just gonna all be invaded, imprisoned and slaughtered, I guess. This is incomprehensible.

Reporters getting back into the business because current news orgs just aren’t covering things to the extent they used to.

Soboroff at NBC, but who else? Don Lemon’s doing it for his own thing apparently.

Amber Speaks Up @amberspeaks.bsky.social · 17h

I covered politics as a reporter more than a decade ago.
I’m back in the swing and I have some news for you, America:
The divide isn’t political anymore — it’s ethical.
Corrupt or not.
That’s the line now.

Yes your taxes should support disabled people.

They should support homeless people.

They should support those living in poverty, children and the elderly.

This is literally the purpose of taxes, and I would far rather support those who need it than continue to enrich the elite.
