not teaching people to question authority at a young age makes it all the harder to realize the myriad ways in which you are your own authority and need to question yourself. america—esp white middle/upper class—is simultaneously riddled with anxiety, inferiority, naiveté, and ego.

Mamdani has now gotten more votes than 1/4 of the members of the United States Senate did when they got elected. The political power being channeled here is immense.

I obtained video of two FBI agents visiting an anti-ICE protester not charged with any crime.
While the media continue to mock Trump's war on "Antifa" as legally impossible, the FBI is quietly implementing it with investigations like these:

The New York Times is fascist-boosting trash, don’t give it your money.
Those with sharp eyes might detect a subtle difference in NYT play last month of an event in one city, w 100,000+ attendees, versus play this morning of some 2500+ events w many millions of attendees, in all 50 states.
See if you can spot it! /s
Then you can find today's story on p A23

Brace yourselves, everyone. They’re preparing to target animation that features anything that has LGBTQ+ representation, and not just Disney. Get ready in case they take action and start their violent attacks and censorship tactics upon the medium.
they're now getting mad at a show that was cancelled 3 years ago

With my book in pre-order, I've started talking about the IP regime, Disney, fascism, and how the company helped build the current moment. There's a conversation with the incredible @ellaguro.bsky.social in Tank Magazine and an appearance on It Could Happen Here pod!

what's most infuriating about this is the *people* who are still playing dumb and buying the administration's excuses (e.g. for today's speech "is just about readiness")
I hope it's clear to everyone now that Trump really is going for it - he's trying to become a dictator. I don't know if he'll succeed, but he's working to install himself as an autocrat unaccountable to voters. And he's weaponizing the military against Americans who oppose him as part of that effort
