let me use my credibility to pacify you. what needs to happen is we just need to vote in 4 years. nothing we can do right now.
If I have any credibility with you from 20 years of reporting on rightwing & fascist movements, please listen when I beg you not to celebrate Charlie Kirk getting shot. Leave aside morality: this isn’t a match in dry grass, it’s a torch. We do not want what this could ignite & we would not win.

Calls to #BloquonsTout (“Block Everything”) went viral in France after the announcement of Prime Minister François Bayrou's austerity budget with its €44 billion in cuts, elimination of two public holidays, rollbacks in public services, and stalled climate investment.

A serious ceasefire and welfare promises would have sufficed. promises they would have been probably allowed to back out off (like Biden re: all those 2020 promises) because the electoral left barely has any standards anyway.

But they didn't want to win with the left.

It cannot be said enough that the liberals that are doing this are not necessarily a departure or an aberration from fascism. Talking about a genocide like it's a pothole on main street is an indication of their placement in an unbelievably grotesque moment in time! bsky.app/profile/will...
We have too many terrible people around us who think the best thing to do right now is blame anyone who's angry about a genocide instead of the administration that was sponsoring it. That, or misunderstand exit polls and cast blanket aspersions on different populations.
