whether by nature or nurture, there is a class of people who will always prefer death and destruction over a reduction in profits. they cannot be reasoned with. they cannot be taught empathy. they will watch young people shot, dismembered, and buried alive, and they will say that god is good.

Someday I will be able to stop and process the unmitigated horror of existing in a world run by stupid, hateful rapists who long to destroy and violate everything good and beautiful and whose most nominally powerful opponent is a political party which thinks it's rude to point this out.

I really want ppl w/o Minneapolis connections to understand

You might've heard that Mpls public schools went hybrid bc so many families are in hiding. Well, a coworker just told me that today, during his kid's hybrid class, a kid's apt building was raided onscreen

🧪 seems like wildly irresponsible journalism at best, and wilful disinformation at worst, to post this, and not mention that all of the most strident criticism linked to is produced by "scientists" directly funded by plastics manufacturers and chemical companies.

As committing to that course would trigger the insurrection act as well as other fascist acts of brutality. This reticence is understandable, no one wants to be the one to break the glass but the longer we are forced to take this without help the more likely it is something much worse happens here.

The longer the governor and the mayor deny the reality that the federal government is already at war against us all the more likely it becomes that they lose control completely versus actually protecting the citizens of this city. The hard truth is the war is here and they are scared of committing

We saw DHS vehicles deployed drones this evening, and there has been some confirmation of that from other vantage points showing ice/customs using drones in their vehicles.
The federal government is waging a brutal grey war in this state that is going to get out of hand in a way that is unmanageable

When those of us on the ground here in Minneapolis, say the federal government is at war against us,It’s not hyperbole. nor is it hyperbole when those of us who are academics who study and write about the far right and authoritarian systems say this is a fascist terror state and a war.

People really do not understand how out of control Minneapolis is right now. I spent almost 8 hours today on the street in different parts of the city and saw everything from tear gas and pepper balls being used to fully marked ice vehicles roaming and pointing out people to camera crews onboard.
ICE is now ramming civilian cars through red lights in Minnesota. — they are tax payer agitators ‼️

I very genuinely think answering this question is obscenely important. Even if it's something as boring as 'Musk can threaten consequences, particularly through Trump / US, if they shut it down'.

But not a single soul is being forced in any way to keep using it as a comms platform: no one.
If a website appeared overnight that gave hundreds of millions of users the opportunity to create CSAM you'd expect governments to shut it down quickly, so the question is why X gets a pass when it's done just that?

oldhead advice from an oldhead.

every couple years, newcomers to the movement think "THIS is finally it, the moment when the dam breaks and the whole system is overthrown"

and when it doesn't happen they lose patience and get disillusioned and drop out of movement work

gotta build for long term

ICE are lying pigs. The moderate position is junking the entire agency and prosecuting everyone in their command structure for war crimes.

The morally correct position involves twenty-yard scaffolds.

really tired of seeing claims that our illegal kidnapping of the Venezuelan president is to "distract" us from the Epstein files. Trump and the men around him have wanted this for a long time. this is a bad thing in its own right, not some attempt to hide from accountability

Goddamn now large lefty networks are claiming trumps fascist attack on Venezuela is a distraction? From what?

This country is cooked.

These acts of fascist imperialism are not distraction. They are the opening salvos for what’s to come next

The national level Democratic Party has to be destroyed and replaced with a democratic body that is willing to actually oppose fascism not the corporatist facade we currently live with that is only interested in theater and capitulation.

Neoliberalism must be destroyed to reestablish democracy.
The Democrats message of "This had to happen but he should have asked us first" is nuts. We're cooked.

The "rules based international order" has always been a facade constructed by the most powerful nations to lend legitimacy to their conflicts of greed and power. Gaza was the nail in the coffin for what little reality there was.

Rogue States that commit international acts of terror deserve their flags burned and their statehood dissolved. Balkanisation, I'm afraid, is the best option. Death to America. This is a reasonable position; continued trade and diplomatic relations is not.

Something americans need to understand is that your country has always been a colonial occupation war monster with an endless hunger for new resources and territories that not only has never shied away from mass death but in facts seems to seek it enthusiastically at every turn.
