Make Character Matter Again
I am once again asking Bluesky to not celebrate political violence just because you agree with the politics of the violent person.
J6er Jake Lang got punched yesterday in Dearborn, Michigan during his anti-Muslim march.

50501 definitely has some far lefties operating it and occasionally it'll show.
Do not confuse it for Indivisible.

context: this was a quoted response to a post from @50501movement.bsky.social sharing a batshit conspiracy theory about how AIPAC doing normal political lobbying activities is part of a vast Zionist occupied government conspiracy. The OP disconnected it because of all the people calling it out

I wonder if free air pumps for car tires at gas stations come with the "OUT OF SERVICE" sticker pre-applied.

Personally, I can't believe that the amoral narcissistic psychopath that people elected to hurt people they hate might fuck teenagers. Clearly he's above that sort of thing.

The consensus view among the Dem base is:
-normie mainstream liberalism
-unremitting, fire-breathing, hardline anti-Trumpism
The factions that exist outside of this consensus have a strong incentive to essentially act as if it’s not an option, and you must choose either leftism or accommodationism

I maintain that the obvious explanation for what is happening worldwide right now is that, thanks to media fragmentation, almost every politically informed person exists within a community of ENDLESS INDULGENCE, where you are actively encouraged to embrace cathartic narratives as unimpeachably true.

That was PJ O’Rourke’s (z”l) line—“There’s no such thing as race and barely such a thing as ethnicity. If we were dogs, we’d all be the same breed.”

The far right is straightforwardly a retreat from civilization as such.

I've been so disappointed with Reason over the last year. It's really been eye opening to me to see how basically every libertarian institution, even "the good ones", has failed to meet the moment when literal fascism arrived at the door.
It highlights critical problems with the ideology as a whole

There is a pretty critical distinction. The waters get muddied mainly by politicians labeling themselves as democratic socialists while governing as social democrats.

Still tired of people using "centrist" as code for a very specific type of person to insinuate that anyone who isn't fairly far to the left is some mealy mouthed coward that plays footsies with fascism.
Every Centrist two days ago: *pushes up glasses* Actually the extremely handsome and popular guy cannot possibly defeat the hated sex criminal. It's impossible because in America people do not like it when you help them. If you don't believe this, you're not a serious thinker.

Bluesky has a lot of terminally online far left types that are perpetually upset about anything that isn't a communist revolution.
Bluesky has so many sore winners and it really is offputting
Man, you can't make me care less about if a Democrat who doesn't lie in New York isn't congratulating the new mayor of the city. You're digging for reasons to be mad, knock it off.

McDonald's has ~150,000 employees. That means if you gave them the CEO's entire annual salary, evenly divided, they'd get an extra $121/year each.
This is textbook "hating the rich" more than "loving the poor".

Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.
McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.
Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay.
See the problem?

CEOs have learned that all they have to do is pander to Trump's ego and the market will be forced to shift in their favor. It's toxic as hell.
