Tbh I still can't believe Donald trump ever became president. It's the dumbest nightmare plasticine version of history when you take a moment to think about this awful nonsense. America should be (an largely is) ashamed, of not just the evil, but the abject stupidity of the situation.
This is grossly dark. These are broken people.
But it's also so politically dumb.
How do they think Americans will react to being told that anyone who doesn't support Trump is a terrorist?

Being autistic while black/hispanic/female/angry is to place a target on yourself in the new fascist USA. Terrifying, awful, evil, loser country.

Who could have predicted that third party verification programs collecting IDs to age gate content would have all their data hacked?! Oh right…..everyone!
NEW: breach of Discord age verification data.
Including some users passports & DLs
Age verification is a badly implemented data grab wrapped in a moral panic.
Mark my words, as age verification mandates expand, we'll end up more surveilled and less secure. 1/

I see the CEO of Bluesky is again being discussed so here's how I got my first and only threat of suspension, for asking her if she felt the lives of Americans and Palestinians were equally important:
I haven't been around here much since I was warned by @moderation.bsky.app that my account was "violating (Bluesky's) violent and threatening speech guidelines" because I asked the CEO of Bluesky if she would give the same importance to the murder of Palestinian kids as to the murdered podcast guy.

Trump has been braying about this since 2017. The rotting remains of institutional guardrails and a few surprisingly civic-minded officials managed to prevent it during his first term. Now there's nothing stopping him, and there's no pretending it wasn't what he was always shooting for.

You know, as bad as this is - and it's really, really bad - I'm kind of relieved that it's out in the open now, and we don't have to pretend this was headed anywhere different. The stakes are obvious and anybody choosing not to see them now is a quisling at best.
JUST IN: President Trump has told top U.S. commanders that the military would be used against "enemy within."

Earlier, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said the purpose of the department would exclusively be "war fighting."

On Trump, autism and tylenol:
A student I was talking to today had it exactly right on this latest White House bullshit claim
“It’s at the perfect intersection of hating disabled people and wanting women to be in pain”
There’s not only no link, the claim is both ableist and misogynist.

Tying paracetamol to autism is both fucking spectacularly wrong scientifically, but is another step in the war on policing pregnant people’s bodies. Paracetamol is the one safe pain relief that can be taken while pregnant. Now, though, the weight of “what if” will be hanging over their heads.
