If you are too young to remember the Iraq War, you'll hear "no one protested" and "no one knew they were lying." Millions of people knew they were lying and protested. The press not only did not want a record of mass dissent; they did not want a record of mass knowledge of lies.

@michaelhobbes.bsky.social rest assured that I am listening for the Star Wars jokes, not the sports gambling references.

the thing I hate most about that rfk quote is that autistic lives have value and worth and beauty and dignity whether they are able to do the things other people do or not. no one is defined by ability or lack thereof and to frame divergence as lack is monster stuff, utterly godless

This, I think, is what smart people have such trouble accepting: that morons can succeed perfectly well in US politics. When a GW Bush or a Trump rises all the way to the top, it doesn't mean they're secretly smart, it means our corrupt, desiccated system is defenseless against venal morons.

I hate these fascist motherfuckers with every cell in my body and with nearly equal timbre I hate the cowardice of the only people in a position to oppose them who treat it like they were playing crazy 8s over cocktails and watercress sandwiches

@warren.senate.gov @edmarkey.bsky.social Hold the line. Vote no. Reject the weak “leaders” of the party who let us down at every turn. I am your constituent and I vote to resist.

@schumer.senate.gov History will remember you as a coward and a collaborator (pejorative). We know a “no” vote is performative and you’re too spineless for even performative resistance. You fold like a card table. You’re a disgrace.

If the DNC was in Star Wars, they’d respond to the destruction of Alderaan by giving a speech about what Count Dooku would think about this while lecturing the Outer Rim on the importance of civility.

For the past 18 months, the Anti-Defamation League has been calling out people who criticise Israel, accusing them of antisemitism. Yet they're willing to give Elon Musk the benefit of the doubt over his nazi salute. That's not 'a bit of grace'. that's a revealing double-standard
