While all of the images from the hands off protests are incredible, I keep going back and looking at the crowds in small rural towns across America.

I hold a lot of disdain for the people who didn’t see this coming given P2025 but it does seem like the actual support for these goals is nonexistent, everyone who voted for him did so under the incredibly stupid assumption that he wouldn’t do this

i think the executive orders directing agencies to end energy efficiency regulations and open up more land to drilling and mining is so indicative of the character of the american right — in its view everything, whether people or our larger environment, is something to be exploited and dominated

trump’s apparent obsession with invading canada — and obsession with territorial conquest in general — is only funny insofar that you can use it to make fun of dipshits who backed or apologizes for him because he was “antiwar.” otherwise, it is genuinely quite concerning.
