cancelling Disney+ and Hulu is well and good but it’s not a huge hit on an individual level
but Disney adults? people who spend real money at the parks? you guys can make a dent, call ‘em up and tell them your vacation is postponed until they pull their heads out of their asses

Heard from a friend at Disney+ that there are multiple levels of freakout internally, both from internal dissatisfaction, concerns about subscription cancelations, and of course the big one: concern about a boycott spilling over into parks and cruises.

the thing about american gun culture is that there’s an online-poisoned local kid with a deer rifle in basically every town in america
one key piece of evidence i keep coming back to here and with the kid who took shots at trump: they were local boys. these aren't motivated supersoldiers planning attacks on key targetsnand expending time and energy to track them. this was something local you can do in an afternoon

This is the least surprising result, as, with vanishingly rare exceptions, the left doesn't do terrorism in this country, despite the media desperately trying to make it seem like they do. The people who do nearly 100% of terrorism here are the extreme right and the online irony poisoned right

An antisemite shot two kids in Colorado, at least one of whom is Jewish.
The White House “fighting antisemitism” doesn’t care, because the shooter was a student radicalized online into far right beliefs, which the regime is cool with, rather than a student verbally criticizing Israeli govt policy.

it’s hard to talk politics anymore because the natural response to everything is “oh they should be killed” but you’re not allowed to say it. it’s more illegal than open pedophilia

I want to once again reiterate what I said earlier. The reason the vast majority of Democratic and so-called centrist elites have acquiesced over and over again is that they are COMPLICIT. Because they actually know that direct confrontation is how you defeat fascists and choose not to do it.
Certainly looks like we scared the President away from Chicago. Fighting like hell works.

Trump is "moving on" from plans to deploy troops to Chicago.
Chicago showed us that when workers, students, the Mayor, and community members all stand up together, Trump backs down.
This is what we need in every city across America.

There is a false dichotomy drawn between "the ivory tower" and "the real world," and I'm here to report that in a post-industrial society, your real-world economy absolutely hinges on the university.
University towns are factory towns. Universities drive economic activity, not the other way around.

In Chicago, in 21 months, the AI-powered gunshot detection technology ShotSpotter generated more than 40,000 “dead-end police deployments”
89% of ShotSpotter deployments resulted in no gun-related crime
But the tool did cause the fatal police shooting of 13-year-old Adam Toledo.
