Never forget and never forgive the people who voted for this, and did this to us.
When this is all over, and they want to "move past it", don't let them. Make them own this for the rest of their (hopefully) miserable lives.

We are losing the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, which has helped educate, inform, and entertain millions of Americans.
Instead, we’re getting a vulgar new gold ballroom, which none of us will ever see.

So there are signs that the very unethical autodubbing feature YouTube is rolling out will be opt-out instead of opt-in. Found these on their FAQ pages for it, so please keep an eye on your channels if they ever push the dubbing to be auto-enabled.
Keep this shit off.
Keep this shit off.

How better to celebrate Easter than with a discussion of whether Donald Trump is a Leviathan or Anti-Leviathan?
New post from me about whether it makes sense to use theories about dictatorship to understand Trump's kind of chaotic authoritarianism. 1/n

My love to those terrified as to what Trump's second term means for you. Both the solution & comfort can be found in organising. You don't have to wait 4 years for the Dem establishment to proscribe a smiling alternative servant to capital. You start fighting & winning today.

And if you're already organising, there are millions of people in desperate need of someone to see their fear & to make material differences. Reach out, see them, & involve them. The pit of dispair I felt after Corbyn's loss was only filled by my union & I've never looked back.
