I won an argument tonight with a "free-speech absolutist" (or at least got them to admit "yes, you're right, private platforms should have the right to decide their own moderation, and restrict the speech they want to restrict") thanks to this article. Thank you, Adam Serwer!

Exactly. The new U.S. National Security Strategy is much worse for Europe than most people had imagined. Europe is described as a bigger threat than both China and Russia, and they outline the need for regime change in Western European countries as part of a civilizational struggle.
I assumed the NSS would just ignore/deprioritize Europe (It did that on defense/NATO).
But the actual message was: Europe matters to us, we must save it from itself, the EU and its wokeness. Thus, the USG is going all in on foreign interference to help the far-right win a civilizational war.

Trump, continued: "What the Somalian people have done to Minnesota is not even believable. It’s not even believable. And a lot of it starts with the governor. A lot of it starts with Barack HUSSEIN Obama, because that’s when people started coming in... They want to kiss our country good night."

A big blue wave is building in backlash to the regime. The fact that Republicans had to fight so hard to defend a Trump +22 district is more very bad news for MAGA. No amount of gerrymandering can stop what’s coming in November. The American people are sick and tired of Trump’s chaos and corruption.

"While the fight to re-stigmatize ethnic nationalism is an enormous one, we have to do everything we can to become engaged in the struggle."
A majority of this sessions' bills introduced by the CAQ target people, take away human rights, or make it impossible to challenge the government. Is Quebec experiencing its own fascist turn? My latest, on one of those attacks.
