History never prepared me for the rise of fascism being YEARS of everyone saying "he can't do that!" As he continually does 'that'
The President of the United States is publicly calling for the political prosecution of his political opponents, urging the death penalty because they urged soldiers to uphold the rule of law.

This should be front page news everywhere. It is not, which tells much about how we got to this point.

Between a random Portland barista saying he wants to hurt Charlie Kirk and the President of the United States calling for the execution of Democrats, both sides clearly have a violence problem
Trump posts again about Democrats, saying their behavior is “punishable by DEATH!”

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market.

Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today.

Four giants control 80% of meat processing.

A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry.

The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

AI is like this giant fucking boat we all were forced to get on, and it's a boat they stole, and also it barely floats, and also it's not going anywhere good. So it either takes us somewhere we hate, or it fucking sinks, so either way, fuck AI.
So if AI succeeds loads of people lose their jobs as they're replaced by AI, and if AI fails, loads of people lose their jobs as the economy crashes?
It’s amazing how this story has gone from 0 to 60 in UK press. There’s been no mainstream coverage to date but this morning the story is leading BBC News site & bulletins.

Trump claims his ICE raids are going after the "worst of the worst".

But his own DOJ admits that over 97% of immigrants detained in Chicago have no criminal record.

It was always about cruelty, not public safety.
