Sometimes it really feels there are only two camps here:

1. "What? This is horrible? This isn't us, America [meaning U.S.]."

and

2. "What? The U.S. has always been like this bad. Nothing's changed."

Like we can go from bad to worse and still complain about it getting worse!

The people responsible for these layoffs on Yom Kippur are the same people who will call you antisemitic if you even hint that Israel is doing anything wrong ever.

If you call this genocide, this massacre, this mass bombing, this forced starvation a "war," you don't deserve to be called journalists. You're pathetic.

Legacy media is trash. NBC can die. NYT can die. WaPo can die.

NBC News headline of "Trump moves closer to Middle East peace — and maybe the Noble Prize"

The faux outrage is ridiculous. Israel, in fact, burned Palestinian children in tents alive. Israel has sniped Palestinian children in the head. Israel has also starved to death and bombed Palestinian babies. But Zionists don't seem to care if the children being killed are Palestinian.

Where's the edit button? It's the Washington Post and not the Washinton Post helping to kill democracy...
pestoquiche80s.bsky.social
You went very quickly from "Democracy dies in darkness" to "Don't worry—the Washinton Post can help kill democracy in broad daylight."

Trump is actually a criminal, and yet it's somehow not okay to do the same to him...

The Harris campaign was courting these mythical principled Republicans during the Cheney tour. Futility...

Very telling that Newsom is putting forth Kirk as someone to model instead of someone like Mamdani. If MAGA ever does implode the Republican party, I see the new conservative party being the old Democrats, and hopefully a more progressive party being the electorally viable alternative.

I remember when liberals were having a big sad about Trump firing Comey. What the fuck? Comey is largely responsible for Trump's election in 2016! These same folks said "don't worry—Garland will get him," and Garland did jack shit. These are the same folks who in 2017 said to read Hillbilly Elegy 🤮.

We're not on the road to authoritarianism—we're already there.

Not saying it can't get worse, but the "on the road to" train has already left the station.

I like the idea of people over profits. I'm not even sure they'll get profits from capitulating to the regime. If they were primarily concerned with profits, they'd realize Trumpies are only 30% of the population. You don't want to risk pissing off the other 70% if your primary concern is profit.

In 2017, well-meaning "liberal" white people were telling me I was in a bubble and needed to understand Trump voters and also go read Hillbilly Elegy. I kid you not.

Yes, I'm getting really tired of the "it's always been bad" crowd.

Isn't this the plot of the first Incredibles movie?

And, no, the supposed "all lives matter" crowd doesn't actually care about all lives. They have a lot of energy to care about a hateful douchebag, but they don't care about marginalized being killed and tortured by the tens of thousands and sometimes hundreds of thousands.

Also, there are far too many people (including Palestinian victims of Israel's genocide) for me to give two shits about the murder of a Nazi fuckhole.

The ridiculous way traditional media is fawning over Charlie Kirk just reinforces my belief that when Trump dies, NYT and WaPo will publish headlines like "Trump's complicated legacy" or "Trump forever changed the American experiment" or "Trump: the most honest president?" It'll be sickening.
