They talk and act exactly like Nazis in pursuit of the exact same objectives as Nazis using the exact same tactics and rationales as Nazis but it would be wrong to call them Nazis until they grow the little mustache.

The story of the slow, inexorable decline of Trump's support in the last thirteen months is the story of millions of Americans, one person at a time, witnessing the obscenities being perpetrated by this administration and being roused to opposition.
I am gonna go out on a limb and say that a Jersey dude so horrified that he went to his first protest and is trying not to cry on camera has a pretty good chance of staying radicalized. And that while Bluesky loves to pick apart things like this, this kinda video moves the needle for OTHER dudes.
Yesterday morning kids were sent running from their bus stop in panic because ICE showed up. This guy at today’s ICE Out of Lindenwold protest is a must watch 😭. @maddow.bsky.social

This incident at an anti-ICE student walkout in Emunclaw WA was provoked by MAGA vigilante Danny Rebel, a grown-ass man who taunted teenagers before getting punched.
Embarrassing that Emunclaw PD says it was unprovoked. Danny has a history of aggressively trying to agitate the left for content.

There's probably an entire sociology paper in the number of songs where cowboys are an escapist fantasy for women (eg "Where Have All The Cowboys Gone", "Cowboy Take Me Away") but the escapist fantasy typified by "cowboy" singers is living at the local dive bar staying drunk 24/7

A colleague at a previous job whose work involved handling reports of CSAM material and getting them taken down accidentally opened one of the images in question. He immediately closed the image, turned off his computer, handed it over to IT to be wiped, and reported the incident.
genuinely i cannot believe that i have to say this but you do not need to - and absolutely should not - expose yourself to CSAM material in order to “witness” the crimes of the elite.
this does nothing except make vicarious trauma, moral injury, and potentially places you in legal jeopardy.
STOP
