I stood at the grave of my great grandfather in Flanders. His grave is one of millions from WWI in Belgium alone. We must take the lessons from history and resist this march to mass slaughter and warmongering by the likes of Mark Rutte.

25 years ago today, SCOTUS elected George W Bush president of the United States by blocking completion of a voting canvass in Florida. A subsequent canvass by the Associated Press showed that Bush's rival, Al Gore, had won the race in Florida—and thus the contest for the presidency—by 700 votes.

Repealing Section 230 would chill free speech by allowing platforms, not users, to be held responsible for what its users say. Platforms will become much more censorious over what its users can post. This is extremely bad

Sen. WHITEHOUSE: We finally are moving to file a bipartisan Section 230 repeal bill. Waiting any longer serves no useful purpose.

unironically, the political right hates men
The goal of the entire conservative project is to kill love and joy. All manosphere advice equates masculinity with enduring suffering and refusing to enjoy anything. Sorry for the cliche but 1984 hit the nail on the head: Their vision of the future really is a boot stomping on a human face forever.
this all being said — there's a reason that the incel organized government fears men who know love. for once in their lives this makes the pedobarons feel truly powerless. they know that they cannot exercise their power addiction rape fix in any way that could dominate love itself. they fear that.

100% agree. Ironically, this is the only version of "broken windows" that actually makes any sense, because it has to do with the individual behavior of one person going from getting away with small crimes to getting away with big crimes, instead of being some vague theory about general contagion.
My hottest take is that letting cops park in red zones for mundane errands and coffee breaks; I think “you can break the law at your discretion as a job perk” is the small domino that ends in the large domino of “shooting protesters in the face with rubber bullets”
It must be wild to get to abuse the public then pay for it with the public's money

One under-appreciated part of this: note the bit below about “and their dependents.”
Under the Trump admin’s new policy, dependent children of visa applicants are not allowed to have their social media set to private during the entire visa process. They MUST make their social media public.

The fact that you can have 6 billion dollars and not be aware of the existence of other countries is a good argument in favour of the government confiscating 6 billion dollars from you
For all Universal HC/Single Payer/M4A advocates.
What do the biggest, expensive hospital chains do. Do they opt out and only serve the rich ?
Who in the USA gov runs the program?
R U ok with having to see a primary care doc before you can see a specialist ?

Bloomberg reports the Trump administration is planning to boost corporate tax breaks even further. After blowing a hole in the budget with its last corporate giveaway, it now wants to hand out even more benefits to big companies while everyone else pays the price.

We’re officially in the Lame Duck phase of Trump’s presidency with over three years left on the clock
Indiana’s Senate has voted AGAINST the GOP gerrymander that’d have locked in a 9-0 map.
This keeps the 7-2 map in place, saving two Democratic seats heading into 2026.
The vote failed big, 19/31.
The MAJORITY of the GOP senators opposed it!
