MAGA doesn’t follow Trump because they think he’s a brilliant businessman or a tough guy. They follow him because he’s convinced mediocre, insecure people that their ignorance and stupidity are actually strengths, and that absolutely nothing is their fault. He gives them permission to be hateful.

Trump ordered airstrikes on ISIS targets in Nigeria, claiming it was about protecting Christians.
But people on the ground say that narrative doesn’t match reality.
“In Jabo, we see Christians as our brothers. We don’t have religious conflicts, so we weren’t expecting this.”

Israel’s war on Gaza has made genocide an accepted weapon of war.
We’re already seeing it in Sudan.

The war in Gaza has firmly established that the international legal, moral, and political order contains a double standard and was never meant to serve the needs of weaker nations and societies.

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

Reflecting on my recent posts by London & Millay considering the urgency of life.
In this we see love is brief, fragile, and fiercely present. Williams reminds us that tenderness matters because time doesn’t wait.
We must speak gently, hold carefully, and love now.
