Exactly. The operator isn't getting an order to "kill these drowning men," they're being told "strike grid coordinates XYZ"

The people who *know* need to be held accountable, and that's pretty senior.
Someone made the point - I think Adam Kinzinger - that the problem is it’s one thing to refuse to murder someone if ordered. It’s another to refuse an order where you yourself don’t have the full context and couldn’t possibly - but someone above you does/did

Thank you, @jonathancapehart.bsky.social for your closing statement on tonight’s @pbs News Hour! It is wrong to always expect people who are appalled by Trump/Project 2025 to be the ones to do the listening and understanding, whilst the T/P2025 supporters get to close their minds.

The thing is, as far as Trumo is concerned, HE is the world. He alliows other people of great wealth and influence into his world. The dumb shits applauding him think they are actually welcome, not merely allowed.
Trump entered the Mar-a-Lago ballroom for his Thanksgiving feast to the song “We Are the World,” a song used to raise money to help starving children.

Trump himself has cut aid to address global famine and has fought for the right to cut food stamps from American families.

While the right lose their goddamn minds about a lone wolf doing something horrendous in DC today, let’s not forget that last week in the White House they all gushed over a genocidal, journalist murdering tyrant whose country financed 9/11.

This Thanksgiving, ICE fascists are arresting people in San Diego At Their Green Card Interviews!

These immigrants followed the law & did everything right—ICE is arresting them anyway.

It was never about law & order. It was always about fascism & white supremacy. Abolish ICE. Protect our Republic.

If people want to understand why American politics went bananas in 2012, the reason is that the moderate black President took a modest but consequential step toward decoupling healthcare from employment and every billionaire immediately poured their entire portfolio into race-hate media

🤔 Question for all who hold the morality of human rights for all:

“Resist” is the word that has been used, and I understand why. I’ve used it

What about using “persist”? It seems that this word has a feel of forward-motion that is missing from “resist.”

Yep.
I wish this didn't feel like a typical feature of rape culture: denying the capacity of women and girls to bear witness, refusing to listen to them, erasing their voices.....
40 minors gave sworn testimonies that they’d been raped & trafficked by Jeffrey Epstein.

Kash Patel Under Oath: “There’s no credible information that Jeffrey Epstein trafficked minors”

FBI Kash Patel needs to be charged with perjury.

THIS IS BIG

For non-academics who might not understand why:
1. Sen. Warren is still a Harvard professor so this is a call coming from inside the house
2. As a tenured law prof, Warren knows it is a VERY big deal from a labor standpoint to call on Harvard to ignore tenure. The bar for this is HIGH.
Per CNN, Elizabeth Warren is calling on Harvard to cut ties with Larry Summers after Jeffrey Epstein's emails released last week by House Dems featured Summers making sexist comments + asking for Epstein’s romantic advice.

97.5% of the people Trump arrested in Chicago had no criminal record

100% of the people Trump pardoned for Jan 6 had criminal records

The difference is the former are mostly Latino & the latter are mostly white. This is systemic white supremacy in 2025. If you still don’t see it, you’re complicit

Love the way @greenprofgreen.bsky.social frames the fetishization of collaboration at COP as something that tries to impose a "win-win" frame on a situation in which there must be a loser...failing to grapple with that puts humanity--rather than fossil asset owners--at risk of losing. #COP30

Trump, an image obsessed lifelong public figure who has proven he would say anything to defend himself, has never once condemned pedophilia, the abuse of young girls or even made a show of seeking justice for abused women. Rather, he defends and socializes with predators.
