I’m tired of pretending this is all normal. We’ve reached a point of no return. There is no more beyond this. This is the end. We can’t pretend to be okay with this. We don’t need words anymore. Words have expired. We need action. Globally. Something has got to change. It has to.

i would imagine hasan knows, rationally, not to talk in situations like this. he did anyway because cops of all stripes are very good at making you feel like in *just this one particular situation* it makes more sense to talk a bit. don't ever give in to that impulse.
“The reason they’re doing [this] is to try to create an environment of fear, to try to get people like myself... to shut the fuck up,” Piker said on a stream recounting the details of the incident.

“The Texas National Guard (TNG), which has around 23,000 members, signed its 287(g) task force agreement with ICE on April 11.”
Featured story: Since late January, nearly 200 county, city, and state law enforcement agencies have signed what are known as 287(g) task force model agreements with ICE. These agencies operate in 23 states, with a whopping 137 in Florida.
Texas Police Are Slowly Joining What Could Be a ‘Giant ICE Army’
New 287(g) task force agreements are trickling in as the Lege considers mandating ICE cooperation and some counties await federal training.

Dr Oz says being healthy is a patriotic duty
Worse, he says they spend 70% of Medicare & Medicaid funds on chronic illness & aren’t “getting their money’s worth”
This is the quiet part said out loud.
They don’t want to cure chronic illness, they want us to take the blame. They don’t want to pay.

60% of Americans have a chronic condition. Among people over 65, it's 95%.
Saying most of our health care spending goes to chronic conditions is just another way of saying it goes to health care.

How about the working class against the oligarchy?
The upward redistribution of wealth over the past 50 years has shifted $80 trillion from the bottom 90% of Americans to the top 1%.
This is the real fight we need to be talking about.

"Woke" -- changing norms through social pressure -- is not, contra the reactionary centrists, another form of tyranny. It's the *alternative* to tyranny. It's new norms winning through the marketplace of ideas. The alternative is what we see now: enforcing norms via the threat of state violence.

It's darkly funny how little attention the masked secret police receive. Last year it seemed that the chattering class would never shut up about masked undergraduates. Perhaps they saw the encampments as more of a threat to their interests than the jackboots?

Unironically, I think it has been a mistake to base critiques of the rich on their consumption rather than the power they have and could wield — which they would retain even if they chose to give more money to charity or bury some of their riches in the ground instead of buying yachts and such.
after this last few months I think I am now in critical support of all weird ultrarich people hobbies. take that horse dancing class. I love that yoga retreat for you. tighten up that golf swing. search the ocean floor for ancient shipwrecks. anything that keeps you in your business and out of ours

Some of you act like the concept of news was invented in the past twenty years. Do you really think people weren't familiar with Nazis or scammers before the Internet?
one of the unfortunate things about the internet is that we are now far too aware of all the awful people who exist
previously the worst person you knew was e.g. Asshole Jeff who catcalls people at the gym
now it's a guy who tries to scam the life savings from grandma using a Hitler-based memecoin

When they say “immigrants” they mean “servants” and when they say “expats” they mean “masters”
Will never understand people who are obsessed with immigrants & “closing borders” yet think it should be very different for them when it comes to retiring to a warm country.
I guess they could never view themselves as immigrants.

There is this very surreal feeling when you are planning out hopeful events for 5-6 months away while also stockpiling medication, checking your go bag, and making sure you are ready to leave your home at the drop of a hat. Also you are working all day like nothing is going on in the wider world.
