Oregon National Guard Adjutant General, General Gronewold says if they are federalized, that he will advise the Title 10 commander to utilize National Guard Troops to PROTECT protesters at ICE facilities. This is the right answer.

Unfortunately, we've labeled the only thing that works, Violence, as the tool of the Stupid and Evil.

At some point society needs to have a constraint before the poets and pastry chefs have to hit someone with a claw hammer.

Thought it was "The Justice System"

But that isn't working out. 😒

Turns out that spending a bunch of money to keep the Internet quiet is always a bad investment.

Your skeet that wasn't a tweet is a very specific flavor of the Streisand Principle.

Huh.

Look at us all talking about Saudi royals trying to stifle dissent on a platform they don't own.

Crazy.

Yeah, I'm gonna need for you to think of this in terms of welders, managers and accountants.

None of the money they are playing with is real, but the moment that is revealed, every dollar in your pocket is gonna be worth 40 cents in actual welder money.

Y'all, we already have numerous examples of billionaires attempting to capture the "public square" through acquisition.

I am literally not tweeting you on a platform that a billionaire Nazi bought, and now it's "Oops! All Nazis!"

Larry Ellison just has different ego than Musk.

Same fascist soul.

Why assume CBS under the Ellisons aims to make money, rather than sees financial losses as an acceptable price to advance political goals, like the Washington Post under Bezos or RT?

Ok, I kinda want to write a whole show.

I was gonna tell y'all all about it, but it occurs to me it's actually too good, I think I'm gonna do it. 😂

It's called "Lesbian Best Friend" but in production they're probably gonna switch it to "Girl's Girl" or something.

It's gonna be soooo violent 🤗

We're announcing our willingness to purchase the portfolio for its market value. We will then subsequently cancel the debt.

Yes, but on the other hand, what an amazing career opportunity for all the cops who can no longer work for any decent sized city because they've had too many force complaints and executed too many citizens on the street.

It's a comeback story for jack booted oppressors.

So many story lines have used Women In Refrigerators trope to move plot forward. It's one thing if it was once in awhile but frigging is so commonplace a lot of us assume it will happen especially in action films.

@daiziesss

this actually has its own trope because it happens so often btw

Women in refrigerators is a literary trope

coined by Gail Simone in 1999 describing a trend in fiction which involves female characters facing disproportionate harm, such as death, maiming, or assault, to serve as plot devices to motivate male characters, an event colloquially known as "fridging". Simone's

I think there seriously needs to be discussed how often you see in media how a woman's suffering is used as a means to make the men around her feel braver and how many fandom/shipping spaces only amplifies that

We lost the country to fascism, but our fashion guy has called them dumpy looking and untailored, so who's the real loser here? 🧐

Military clothes were historically designed for function, not fashion. High-waisted pants kept shirts tucked and allowed for better mobility. The Ike jacket was inspired by British battledress, which involved a cropped jacket that felt comfy when driving. Why change?

I don't think Trump is anywhere near the floor of his support considering the trajectory of the economy but there will always be the people for whom "marching naked children out of their homes at gunpoint" wasn't the final straw

Ahhhh yes, we have again erased gender from a gendered problem.

If only parents were paying attention to their daughters, these young women wouldn't be radicalized to a murderous ideology around racial hatred and sexual entitlement...

... No?

Not the daughters?

Not "kids" in general?

The total mind brain geniuses in charge of turning the world's best military into a Skull & Bones hazing ritual are about to find out that you can't just decide you're too manly to do the "bitch work" of cooking, cleaning and laundry.

Oh shit they're gonna do a pre-WW2 segregated military, huh? 🧐😳
