When Mamdani did a completely unnecessary photo op with Trump did that make him Trump curious? No of course not. When Bernie does his 5th interview with Joe Rogan is that cause he agrees with Joe Rogan? No of course not.

I DM'd him on Facebook to tell him his name had been released, and he may want to private his socials. His response was to change his PFP to this.

Say what you will about liberals, and I’ll say plenty, if you think the vast majority of the people showing up in droves to harass ICE agents in Minneapolis aren’t the sort of people you call shitlibs, I’ve got some bad news for you.

Today is a great reminder that we can never be too ready.
A chart outlining the RIP BOZO Readiness Condition (RIPCON), which is a riff off of DEFCON. There are 5 levels, with 5 being lowest and 1 being the highest. The chart details descriptions of these levels, examples and actions to take in the event something occurs.

ICE is now behaving in such a way that even Tucker Carlson’s favorite Holocaust minimizing, Hitler-apologist “historian” is like “hey now guys, this is getting a little out of hand.”
Martyr Made & @martyrmade X.com Anyone being cavalier about how this is playing with the general public doesn't care about deportations or demographics. They're nihilists who just want a good show. The number of highly-committed 3-time Trump voters I know who have stepped away over the past week is astonishing. Furkan Gözükara @FurkanGozukara • 11h DAMN: ICE grabbed a 17yo Target worker at his job, despite him saying he's a US citizen. After confirming he was, they dumped him in a Walmart lot 8 min away. Bystanders found him sobbing, bleeding: "They slammed me on the ground."

basically the two sides of twitter at this point

Mayor Mamdani issued a fine statement denouncing an antisemitic arson attack against a synagogue in Jackson, MS, and half of the responses say he is at fault for refusing to denounce anti-Israel protests, while the other half say he is selling out Palestine by caring about antisemitism at all.
Tweet by Zohran Mamdani: "I'm horrified by this violent act of antisemitism in Jackson. As hatred rears its ugly head across our nation, it is incumbent upon each of us to reject it with the unity it fears, and to stand steadfast alongside our Jewish brothers and sisters."

wrote about this exact point yesterday in the context of figuring out what/where/how musk's power lies. musk making himself twitter (and vice versa) is a strength for musk but a weakness for twitter maxread.substack.com/p/why-wont-s...
Where Musk’s real power lies, and what makes him politically dangerous to confront directly, is not (as may have been the case just a few years ago) in his charisma or his money, or even his control of the flows of attention on X.com. It’s that he’s made the site--the essential global reactionary communication and organization app--co-extensive to himself. Even as his personal popularity has plummeted and his political capital has vaporized, Musk remains a key man to the global right-wing project, because X.com would collapse (or be moderated out of useful existence) without him. Republicans and right-wing parties across Europe have no choice but to defend him to the death, for fear of losing an essential source of attention and parade of marks for their grifts. Unlike the Trump administration, which could survive a post-Musk world, X.com has no choice but to keep Musk in charge. But Musk himself is not popular, has no juice, no aura, no special ability. The fact that he is lashed existentially to X.com and therefore to the right wing at large is as much a liability for the site and the reactionary project it houses as it is a asset to him. His site, and its dedicated users, are breaking laws in dozens of countries, and his only response has been to joke about it. Someone should do something about that. There’s nothing to be afraid of and there’s no reason not to.

Honestly think that if you pulled twitter from the App Store and shut it down it would fuck up the entire right wing ecosystem at that point. Like the entire media apparatus would fall apart.
