Also another important point *things happen* and not all of history happens in a single moment

Yes Trump was clearly unpopular yesterday, but the election didn't happen yesterday, it happened *six months ago*, before a lot of voters really understood what Trump 2.0 would entail

I'm Newsom's #1 hater but damn, I can feel the Californian Separatism bubbling up in me from this stuff

Every Trump admin hates our state so much, why not just let us go huh
Gavin Newsom has responded after President Trump earlier said he would arrest the California governor over his opposition to the National Guard's deployment. "The President of the United States just called for the arrest of a sitting governor," Newsom says on X. "This is a day I hoped I would never see in America. I don’t care if you’re a Democrat or a Republican this is a line we cannot cross as a nation — this is an unmistakable step toward authoritarianism."

Is Starmer deliberately laying out the red carpet for Reform and Farage to win the next election?

Embracing the far-right on immigration *legitimizes* their views, we literally proved this in the US election just six months ago

Awful political instincts, my god
Keir Starmer tweet: “If you want to live in the UK, you should speak English. That’s common sense. So we’re raising English language requirements across every main immigration route.l

This is a must-read article. My mouth was hanging open for the whole read

Even putting aside the fact that they are organizing military operations over a SIGNAL GROUP CHAT, it is so bizarre seeing how these people talk. Like this is them celebrating a strike that killed 53 people in Yemen

schumer: only those crazy leftists are gonna be mad at me

moderate dem congress member: im gonna break into the senate chamber and beat that old man's ass
AOC post: I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable. Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes. Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason. Post from Andrew Solender: House Dems' text chains lighting up with apoplexy. "Complete and utter meltdown," says one member. Members floating marching onto the Senate floor. Others urging primaries not just for Schumer, but any Senate Dem who votes for the GOP bill. Excerpt from Vox article: Zoom in: All but one House Democrat voted against the bill earlier this week, in large part because it lacks language to keep the Trump administration from cutting congressionally approved spending. "There were many battleground Dems in the House ... that were uncomfortable, semi-uncomfortable, with the vote," said one House Democrat. "The Senate left the House at the altar." House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.), in remarks to his House colleagues at their annual retreat Thursday, lauded them for standing up to President Trump by voting against the bill, according to multiple sources. When he praised House Democrats' votes, he received a standing ovation. When he mentioned Senate Democrats, members booed. What we're hearing: House Democrats' text chains lit up Thursday night with expressions of blinding anger, according to numerous lawmakers who described the conversations on the condition of anonymity. "People are PISSED," one House Democrat told Axios in a text message. Several members — including moderates — have begun voicing support for a primary challenge to Schumer, floating Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) and Dan Goldman (D-N.Y.) as possible candidates, three House Democrats said. One lawmaker even vowed at the House Democratic retreat to "write a check tonight" supporting Ocasio-Cortez, said the senior House Democrat.

While the Dems try to endlessly chase the electoral positions that poll perfectly in the moment, the GOP has instilled such intense party loyalty that they can shift their voters' views on issues by **40%** in a single day

Looks like he does sneak in some strong vaccine efficacy denial right at the end

But I cannot imagine his anti-vaxx fans are excited by his acceptance of the vaccine as even a valid option. They want him to say it’s literal poison!
Tens of thousands died with, or of, measles annually in 19th Century America. By 1960 -- before the vaccine’s introduction -- improvements in sanitation and nutrition had eliminated 98% of measles deaths. Good nutrition remains a best defense against most chronic and infectious illnesses. Vitamins A, C, and D, and foods rich in vitamins B12, C, and E should be part of a balanced diet.

Thanks for the call out!! I'd totally blanked on Bookshop.org, just updated to include it!
Electric Avenues snippet: Amazon is also dominant in the literature space, but luckily there you have very solid alternatives: Check your local library! You'll always be surprised what they have, whether it be audiobooks, e-books, comics, etc. If you want a audiobook subscription service like Audible, I recommend Libro.fm. For purchasing physical books, try your local bookstore! They need your support. For e-books or physical books your bookstore/library don't have, try Bookshop.org! As convenient as any online storefront and it supports local bookstores.

If you’re feeling rightly pissed today, channel that outrage into meaningful action!

Our only path out of this hell is through organizing. The guardrails are gone, we need to work together to build new ones.
A snippet from Electric Avenues: “What Can We Do About It? Luckily, we can all do something about this! When you are outraged, seek out concrete, meaningful action. Start with whatever feels doable for you! Here's a great list of actions you can take which does not include voting or protesting. Join a political organization, ideally a local one that does work in your community. Donations are a great place to start but try to get involved if you are able. If your workplace has a union, get involved! If you're a progressive or a socialist, the DSA is a great option. If you're a young person concerned about the climate, check out the Sunrise Movement.”

This morning I learned there's a theory for what I described and damn if the name does not go hard as hell

"Narcotizing Dysfunction"
From Wikipedia: Narcotizing dysfunction is a theory that as mass media inundates people on a particular issue, they become apathetic to it, substituting knowledge for action. It is suggested that the vast supply of communication Americans receive may elicit only a superficial concern with the problems of society. This would result in real societal action being neglected, while superficiality covers up mass apathy. Thus, it is termed "dysfunctional" as it indicates the inherent dysfunction of both mass media and social media during controversial incidents and events. The theory assumes that it is not in the best interests of people to form a social mass that is politically apathetic and inert. The term narcotizing dysfunction was identified in the article "Mass Communication, Popular Taste and Organized Social Action", by Paul F. Lazarsfeld, and Robert K. Merton.
