he called me a Nazi and told me that I was verging on libel. my response was "why would I take legal advice from you. the last Nazi you represented is going to die in prison."
say, remember when some guy on twitter smoked him? "the last Nazi you represented is going to die in prison", something like that.

do not understand why the new york times considers it important to maintain ideological neutrality towards an ideology which would fill a mass grave with the staff of the new york times
This is 1930s Germany foreign policy.

I do hope Sky comes back because I'd trade every dullard I've seen jacking off about their departure for Sky ten times over.

Look at how much stronger putting the "Maduro sucked" bit second makes this
Mark Kelly puts out a statement saying "The President of the United States just overthrew a foreign ruler and explained to the American people that this is about taking control of the oil reserves of a foreign nation." This is probably the strongest statement alongside Gallego's I've read.

insane that DC Dems are still letting themselves get dogwalked by a Redditor shithead with Nazi tats rather than admit that the 80-year-old filibuster-supporting conservative they dragged out of an Augusta retirement home is probably a suboptimal candidate

parts of the law enforcement apparatus in this country, both federal and local, is behaving as if we are in an autocracy or a State of Exception is in effect, but they can't actually...do autocracy/SOE things, because of what I can only describe as institutional inertia

I'm not even exaggerating here, if someone says the distraction shit to me IRL I say "no, that's stupid," and I know this because I have involuntarily said this in response to MSNBC-aged relatives who repeat what they hear on TV

are you people fucking crazy. do you understand how insane and stupid you sound claiming the invasion of a sovereign fucking country is a 4D chess distracterino
Chris Murphy: "At some level he's winning tonight because clearly part of his intent here was to distract the American people -- you and I -- from what's happening here at home. You have 20 million families who are getting massive increases in their healthcare premiums. People will die."

i understand how galling it is for americans to be offended at foreigners threatened with US military force, but one problem is that if you live in a US city you are being openly threatened with US military occupation on a day to day basis and every organ of the US government delcares you an enemy

miller's feelings of inadequacy are the only well-grounded beliefs he has
this is small comfort given he has state power and i don’t but i am struck by what an obviously weak and fragile man miller is. a blubbering piss baby whose entire affect and personality is an attempt to make up for his profound feelings of inadequacy
MILLER: The US is using its military to secure our interests unapologetically in our hemisphere. We're a superpower. It's absurd we'd allow a nation in our backyard to become a supplier of resources to our adversaries

TAPPER: Sovereign countries shouldn't be able to do what they want?

I am more and more convinced that right-wingers are like this because they surround themselves with sociopaths to the point they don't know when they're broken inside because they're the same as the people they are regularly around.

'Donald Trump proves the historically progressive nature of common law and trial by jury' is a weird but somehow increasingly common occurence.

This is the correct read. Most European leaders have a 'white knuckle it until Governor Fungible (D-Nonsuch) gets 270 electoral votes in 2029' approach. Not a good idea IMV.
"Vassal" talk is a bit much, but those Starmer (and other EU leaders tbf) statements read like all these people still believe, if we can just hold our breath for three more years, this nightmare will be over and we'll be back to singing Atlantic Kumbaya

i don't know what to do about a system where people in power believe the antisemitic CSAM generator is too important of a platform to leave because the worst pundits on earth think the platform signals something about free speech

i feel like "jewish consigliere to nazis" is basically a description of greenwald's entire career
Glenn Greenwald says Nick Fuentes' authenticity makes it easy for critics to "demonize and attack you by taking these quotes that can sound not just very racist, but very almost Nazi-like and kind of an extermination rhetoric." Um, yea. People who use Nazi-like rhetoric tend to get labeled a Nazi.

yeah, there is a cumulative log of evidence that SA's underlying intent was increasing the social capital of caliper-havers

there's a reasonable argument (i think @segyges.bsky.social compiled a version of it on here at some point) that Alexander was very good at *pretending* he was building one thing while actually signalling quite clearly what his intent was all along? but I may be misremembering

unfortunately one of the lessons that emerges from Scott Alexander in particular is that virtually everything he wrote about Outgroup reasoning was also true of himself
