You guys, comparisons to 1930s Germany have lost their utility. Stop looking for similarities and just be here, see what's now. The police don't have to be the gestapo - American policing is already that bad. American immigration enforcement is already that bad. It doesn't need a comparison.

the biggest lesson from the emails today is that powerful people are so unafraid of consequences for crimes as bad as “raping children” that they will just talk about it openly in emails

the only path to a better society is one where that is no longer true

“Someone” cancelled my family’s flight out of the country at the last second.

We got our boarding passes. We checked our bags. Went through security. Then at our gate our reservation ‘disappeared.’

I don't know what video footage the guardian saw. It is absolutely clear, with no doubt that he intended to punch her directly in the face, BOTH times.

BYD had last word. It "has been at the forefront of China’s aggressive EV push, rapidly expanding its domestic market and overtaking Tesla as the world’s largest EV manufacturer by revenue in 2024." #energysky

Chattel slavery was so bad that when we tell you how bad it in fact was most of y'all shut down and tell us we're making it up and pass laws against us ever telling you how bad it was again because your brains literally cannot handle how bad it in fact was.
"How bad slavery was" is worse. Much worse. Much worse than you think, much worse than you're taught, much worse than museums depict. Worse.

A reminder for the timeline:

Elon Musk only owns a minority of SpaceX and the company has developed an entire system of management to keep him away from the things it does that actually work.

And Elon Musk lies a lot.

Oh, brother
I didn’t give a wit about new pope coverage, but the first American pope being a man with Black ancestry born in Chicago by way of New Orleans by way of Haiti. Names his self after the pope who condemned slavery? In the Trump era? Oh, baebae, I am HERE for it.

currently running an additional budget deficit of $60m per day at current oil prices.

btw the dollar was calculated at 1400 naira per unit and now it's at ~1600 and will only worsen with dropping price of oil
"The tariffs themselves...have served to drive oil prices lower...The government’s $37 billion budget for 2025 — with its $8 billion deficit — was benchmarked against an international oil price of $75 a barrel."

this is as bad as it sounds. worse, even
