What could we imagine if both governing parties didn’t squander our collective wealth bombing (or bombing by proxy) poor Black and brown people all over the world and locking us up and running ice here? What if we gave one f-15 jet budget to every school district, or ice’s budget to public clinics?

The value of reading history is you know that in 1860 there were abolitionists who were so demoralized that they thought chattel slavery would be permanent. 5 years later those still alive had lived to see its end.

Support for Javier Milei’s chaotic regime is explained by two factors. 1. Argentina is a test case for right wing, hostile political and economic reordering around a new level extreme disregard for the well-being of a national population for short run profit. 2. Milei booted China from rare earths.

This is yet another example of how you beat the far right. By beating them, not trying to be them. By having your own agenda, not aping theirs. With courage and conviction - and humour - not fear and timidity.
