from Plato to Hegel to modern Christian fascism, those who defend tyranny and totalitarianism are always wrong.

“We should take it as a call to arms—that Trump’s America is not our America, that on the 250th anniversary year of our nation’s founding we won’t remain quiet as these thugs escalate their attack on the rule of law & our unbreakable commitment to democracy.”

Snapshot: A Deeply Appalling Press Conference
It's worse than I thought. Trump plans to "run" Venezuela and does not pretend he cares about anything beyond taking the oil.

It's good to see the MSM narrative about the transatlantic relationship finally shifting.
The threat isn't isolationism. The threat is the US as an enemy that means Europe harm. We need more honesty in 2026
"Europeans find themselves stranded between hostile powers, Russia and the United States"

ICE detain father shopping on Christmas Eve—then steal his family's groceries.
Then 3 agents divvy up his paid for food—taking what they want for themselves.
"Can I just get the wife's number to call and let her know?" woman asks.
"No, guess he should've complied," agent says.

The Vibe Shift that Wasn't, Trans Edition.
So many of the current far right worked under the assumption that everyone secretly agreed with them & if they won enough close elections, there'd be a huge groundswell of support.
Instead, people saw what's on offer and decided they hate that shit.

As I said recently in The Guardian:
"Despite their hopes to the contrary, anti-trans campaigners have not won the hearts and minds they believed the Supreme Court would give them"
So they turn to this; desperate, fascistic calls for the destruction of those they hate (framed as ideas, not people).
