The best known solution to fascism was chambered in .30-06. Added bonus: said solution is also reasonably effective against communism.

Every single Black parent who has ever had to give their child The Talk, and had to explain to their children what that n-word their kids in school (or their teacher) used meant.
Y'all are on easy mode if you think explaining gay is hard.

always so funny to me when people are like “how am I supposed to explain Gay to my kids?” my kid asks me way harder shit all the time. “why did they build the road this way? why are some people bad?” I don’t know. please ask me about Gay

Hey remember the 2009 Epstein email where he says “I loved the torture video.”
Turns out the video was from Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem.
You’ll never guess who he’s been in business with (and influencing) since 2005.
(Pssst jk, you totally will.)👇

he literally dangled from power lines meant to symbolize the dilapidated Puerto Rican power grid
Analysis: Weeks before he set foot on the stage, Bad Bunny’s halftime performance had already become a media event.
But if you were looking for political commentary, the closest that you got was when he said “God bless America” in English.

Analysis | Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime show was expected to provoke. Did it?
The Bad Bunny Super Bowl show nodded to injustices in Puerto Rico but mostly evoked wholesome family values that meshed with the more sentimental commercials.

I won’t support additional funding for ICE unless we put guardrails in place to make sure ICE is better trained and actually focused on making our communities safer.

They're building concentration camps with my tax money Chuck. They're torturing children. They're murdering innocent people on the street. What are you doing.
Our DHS reform demands are exceedingly reasonable.
We're asking ICE to do nothing more than follow the standards that the vast majority of law enforcement agencies already follow.
Republicans, the ball is in your court. The clock is ticking.

The point of them not getting vaccine is that your kid is supposed to die because they are gonna weaken the bloodline, and their own children can be a vector for causing that ordained judgment. Theirs are supposed to emerge stronger from an outbreak, and your kid is supposed to suffer a genetic fate

"Without 230’s protections, smaller platforms—the ones that might actually compete with the giants—get destroyed first. They can’t afford the vexatious lawsuits. They can’t afford buildings full of lawyers. The big players survive, and their market position gets locked in even harder." 💯
This week Section 230 turned 30, and you'll see a bunch of posts on Techdirt today and the rest of the week about the importance of Section 230, but my first contribution this week is how the arguments against 230 are so contradictory that it should give everyone pause to consider why.
