ICE is fascist. Fight for immigrants! Palestinians must live: we’re complicit. Black Lives Matter! Anti-Semitism sucks. Disability rights! Me: old fat white lesbian, former A’s fan. Live on unceded Lisjan/Huchiun land, in Oakland, CA.

yeah they’re going to take the operational success here (that they got in and out with Maduro and no US personnel died) and it’s going to embolden them to do whatever the fuck they want to anyone else in the western hemisphere
this is a disaster with several more disasters waiting to happen

The same day Katie did this, Trump said they need Greenland for security reasons. The latter is more problematic but given that both Katie & Trump are largely parrots of what they hear, both are likely telling us what Stephen Miller is saying.
This post by Stephen Miller’s wife helps normalize the idea that borders are provisional and power decides outcomes. Coming from someone adjacent to the people shaping that worldview is not incidental. It reinforces the direction of travel without requiring formal endorsement. #holdfast

The death toll from the attack on Venezuela is now at 80, per Venezuelan officials. That includes civilians. Every article about the attack, or how the US somehow claims it will run the country, should mention the fact that, you know, people died, including civilians. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/01...

Kidnapping a head of state and his wife is illegal, even if that head & wife are scum. Don't let that or the theft of Venezuelan oil derail the Epstein inquisition. That's what TACO wants.

also their parents summer with the elected officials and they don't want to make it weird
So many in media are ill-equipped to interview officials about what’s happening because they begin with the presumption of legitimacy and don’t know enough about history or U.S. foreign policy to foment intelligent pushback and hold officials accountable.

At the end of the day, fascism is unconcerned with material wellbeing. They are concerned with dominance and hierarchy. As long as they can maintain an illusion of progress that’s enough for them. Again, it’s why they love AI

Fascism is a self destructive ideology. You never see science or the arts or cultural institutions flourish under fascism. AI is a way that fascists can concoct “progress” even though they’re stripping the wiring out of the house and ripping the shingles off for firewood.

Fascism is about exerting power over others. Some power is physical coercion, but more insidious is that fascists want to force you to accept lies that contradict with what you observe with your own eyes. Thus, it’s no surprise that fascists love AI slop.
This video, viewed millions of times on TikTok, Facebook and X, claims to show Venezuelans taking to the street to thank the US for detaining Maduro.
But the video is a combination of four AI-generated clips and was first posted on TikTok by a user who frequently shares AI videos. It's not real.
