noteworthy how you don’t see anyone calling on Barack Obama or former Dem establishment to step up and take a lead re: the MN murder… most people have just given up and don't even bother. what a way to cement that entire "legacy"

Here’s some things that can be done by a party out of power

- file impeachment articles every day in the House

- withhold unanimous consent in the senate and filibuster every nominee

- be everywhere with comms saying this is lawless and impeachable

This is literally what they do whenever a Black person is killed by police. No matter how solid the evidence is, they will keep pushing that lie, not just to poison the conversation and make sure the killer walks free, but to reassert the political idea that these people deserve to be killed.
The shooting is shocking enough but the government's response is off the charts when you consider that this incident is forensically documented on video.

Every second the murderer is not arrested is another second for feds to hide him in a place that would create a jurisdictional fight. He's on video killing a person. You have to arrest this guy an hour ago, but you might still have time now.

the AHA is a joke and "appropriately narrow boundaries" remains one of its greatest punchlines
And yet in September 2024, amid the ongoing scholasticide in Gaza, Grossman explained that the AHA avoids commenting on “issues that are controversial within and among our members”—namely, Israel-Palestine—because “our effectiveness rests on our legitimacy, our reputation for even-handedness … 🗃️

The way the press is treating chatbots, like they have agency and they “know” things all of a sudden, crossed the line recently from dumb and obsequious to something else entirely. Treating them as alive and making conscious decisions is an almost religious belief. It won’t age well.

there will be a scandal, but will it matter? weiss was hired to kill stories like this, and the hamfisted public stifling is in itself the message: the media will not speak ill of the regime.

scandal or not, she'll play her part and i'd guess likely keep her job
Hours before 60 Minutes was set to air a story on deportees who were sent by the Trump administration to prison in El Salvador, describing “brutal and torturous conditions,” 60 Minutes announced that it has pulled the segment and will air it in the future.

Congratulations, those of you who decided to platform fringe voices and create a climate of fear and hate out of ignorance because those voices insisted a non-problem was a problem. They're now on an HHS stage trying to ruin children's lives. You will live with the harm you have done forever.

Historians will have to seriously contend with the extent to which Bush's inadvertently comical demeanor gave what was indisputably a horrific and harrowing regime the reputation of being not that bad, you know. Like, he utterly ruined the lives of millions but he'd be like:

People keep wondering why they're going after Venezuela. It's because they want to do regime change and control its oil, then use a big tract of land there to keep a tax free "network state" that looks like Dubai but operates like Rhodesia. They are saying this out loud! Believe them!

Trump will die before the full realization of American fascism is reached. These are the birth pangs. It will get so much worse unless we do something. We should and we must.

Take stock of what this feels like, how unacceptable this is. Devote yourself to fighting it.

as a bosnian, i cannot accept this depoliticization of the mass murder that was directed against us. to brazenly claim that the violence has "no political or religious motivation" is beneath common sense. it harms any understanding of what happened in sarajevo and bosnia

Branko Milanovic in @equatormag.bsky.social sums up the parochialism often hiding behind non-aligned & non-critical Yugosplaining — his growing up in Yugoslavia meant Nasser and Ben Bella were "formative influences", but his analysis says Christian Greco-Romans were the first global civilization 🙈

It’s fun to think about the surgeon who will botch your surgery 20 years from now and what he’s doing at this moment. He just ran all his homework through ChatGPT. He just read that article about vaccines and autism at the CDC website. He just watched an Instagram video about the moon landing hoax.
