You walk into this bar and show your ICE mugshot, you don't pay a dime.
Scrolling through the photos of Pam Bondi's "Minnesota rioters," it's just hero after hero. Every photo includes a cowardly DHS agent with their back to the camera.

Bondi thinks she's going to win the propaganda war with this shit, but it's never been more clear that they're losing.

Today’s Executive Order creating a *nationwide* military “quick reaction force” and setting up an online portal to permit random fascist vigilantes to join soldiers is one of the scariest things I’ve seen in U.S. politics in my adult life. Why is it not getting more attention?

And if you know anyone even considering that path a little, please set them straight.
I could be hungry, homeless, and butt naked in the freezing cold with no plasma left to sell and signing up to be an ICE Agent still wouldn’t cross my mind.

Talk about braindead libs jfc.

Yeah, blame the US elite's clear undeniable roots in the white supremacist monarchy of GREAT BRITAIN on Russia.

The very same libs who all signed military pacts w nazi Germany against the USSR before WWII.

Let them, and they'll do us in utterly.

Sick stuff, libs.
When I said last year that the average American MAGA supporter closely resembles a Russian vatnik in both mindset and ideology, I meant it seriously.

On January 1, 1804, revolutionaries established the independent country of Haiti, the first nation to permanently ban slavery. As we begin a year engulfed by the 250th anniversary of the US Declaration of Independence, it’s worth reading the Haitian Declaration of Independence in full. 🇭🇹

It appears that the books I've read either don't have these "anticommunist currents" or that such currents are so dangerous that they can't be explained.

I feel like the deep deep commitment that the Frankfurt school undertook to grasp and confront fascism isn't being taken seriously at all, tbh.
He also isn’t rehashing right-wing attacks on leftists, he is critiquing anticommunist currents (championed by self-declared marxists) and theorizes why they were promoted by the bourgeoisie.

Anticommunism sucks.

Attacking marxists is great, tho.
We have to thoroughly examine the ideology of the movement we are a part of if we want to affect actual change. We also have to improve our understanding of the superstructure, which this book sets out to do. As a communist, why should I not criticize leftists who are anticommunist?

Someone needs badly to read and struggle with the introduction to negative dialectics lol.

We're living under fascism - instead of trying to figure out what to do by studying the many different marxists thinkers, we attack those who studied it hard - at the time - in Germany!

Why are we being ...

Look, the Frankfurt school wrote a bunch.

That was really their main thing

Why are we not engaging with that body of work in anything remotely like it's entirety?

Why not?

Let's hear about those bad ideas!

Or can we only hate them for working at the same universities their attackers work at?
I find many of the responses to the book, these ones included, troubling. I see a lot of people making things up that do not represent its analysis. Most of the questions you’re are asking are addressed in the book.

Plastic surgery is gender affirming care.

Hair growth hormones? Gender affirming care.

Electrolysis or laser hair removal? Dick pills!

Gender affirming care.

Birth control? Gender affirming care. Estrogen for perimenopause or menopause? Guess what that is!

What if elected officials had to report their contact with donors, l9bbyists and those with financial interests affected by government at this level of detail.
in illinois, unhoused people on the sex offense registry must report in person to police every week and provide a log of every place they stayed.

missing even one week or recording one address incorrectly on a weekly log is a new felony charge.
