When asked if there was anything "incriminating" in Epstein's emails, Trump pointed a finger in a female reporter's face and snapped. 'Quiet. Quiet, Piggy.'

my yearly reminder (to myself mostly) that The Zapatista Army of National Liberation (EZLN) was formed by 6 (SIX!!) people, on this day, November 17th, 1983.

A revolutionary horizon is a necessary component to antifascist organizing; that is, there is no meaningful way in which fascism can be permanently defeated without overthrowing the conditions which give rise to it: capitalism and white supremacy, and in North America, settler-colonialism.
“three way fight says that radical politics needs to be antifascist, and antifascist politics needs to be radical.”
It seems a few Leftists are now discovering for the first time that the radical Right is also anti-establishment, and so if you squint at a few of its positions, from a tiny angle, they can kinda sound like our own. Don't get too excited! Learn about the 'three-way fight'

Not to get into this, but to get into it: using the very real threats women journalists face to defend banning a comedian—when he was calling out a woman for defending harm to young women and girls—this is weak and low. Don’t act like people who actually get real threats can’t tell the difference.
First I’m sorry that you had such tragic experiences. That’s horrific.
1) if a person on the news, such as a female journalist talks about a topic, does she deserve threats in a joking way?
2) would you believe those acceptable to receive on your account?

I don't want to hear shit about how Newsom is standing up to Trump. A judge has issued a stay preventing the feds from yanking the CDLs of legal immigrants but @governor.ca.gov is going forward with it anyway. Just like he's persecuting trans people anyway.
If the Teamsters were worth a shit, weren't labor aristocracy and weren't aholes that shit on indy and immigrant truckers, the whole country could be shut down over this.

Ah yes, good, we're gonna use the bullshit generators to build nuclear power plants.
Problem: AI needs massive amounts of power to thrive. Nuclear makes lots of power. Nuclear takes a long long time to do safely.
Proposed solution that I'm sure will have no unpleasant consequences: Use AI to speed up the construction of new nuclear plants.

Again it’s not good that the most prominent leaders of the party keep insisting it’s a trap to talk about “identity” when the Trump administration is pushing white supremacy.
Speaking at a Texas Tribune Festival on Friday, former U.S. Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg criticized the Democratic Party for failing to reach everyday Americans, arguing that it “got sucked in” to a conversation about identity. #TribFest25

BlueSky is a bad site used by good people. That describes most social media sites. But BlueSky is egregiously unethical. Any of you can be disappeared for baseless reasons.
