I think it should have been brought up more that the goal of “deporting 20 million people” is an admission that you want to carry out a world historical crime against humanity.

I disagree. The story of a (barely) closeted son of a klansman who has bounced around a bunch of different religious traditions, wrecked his family and life, then moved to Hungary to be a hired hand for an authoritarian PM could be worth exploring, but this article misses everything interesting.
rod dreher is not that interesting. he is a guy very clearly filled with self hatred tied to repressed feelings related to his gender and sexuality, and rather than deal with them, he blames “modernity” and “secularism” for why he’s unhappy. www.theatlantic.com/magazine/202...
Rod Dreher Thinks the Enlightenment Was a Mistake
The influential author derides secularism and the modern world. Conservatives—including the vice president—are joining him on a march back to the Middle Ages.

😂 “Investigating” what someone sang in Spanish. And the person happens to be one of most popular musicians in the world whose lyrics are easily found online in a million places lmao
Alford: "On Bad Bunny - we're still investigating. There's info out about the lyrics. I don't speak fluent Spanish, but if it's true what was said on natl TV, we have a lot of Qs for entities that broadcast it & we'll be talking w/ the FCC. This could be worse than the Janet wardrobe malfunction"

Conservatives get angry at a lot of current popular culture bc it reveals that Capital pursuing maximum profit does not care about ideology and will just go with what's most profitable. They want to subordinate Capitalism to ideology without ending it. If only there were some word for this!

Tbh Kid Rock fake halftime show is a fascinating cultural moment imo. You have a political movement that has achieved tremendous power at the highest levels, and at the exact same its cultural influence has collapsed even further.

Obviously this is a lie but if it were true it would mean (at best) that they have a White House staffer who likes openly racist content and that there’s only one level of scrutiny into what gets posted to the president’s social media.
Trump has now deleted the post, with the White House now claiming, "A White House staffer erroneously made the post. It has been taken down."
Karoline Leavitt a few hours ago:
"Please stop the fake outrage and report on something today that actually matters to the American public.”

Openly embracing "Birth of a Nation" level racism and promoting it as president in 2026. Nothing shocks anymore but it's truly insane how vile and evil one person can be. And how many people love it.

Trump: "Mike Johnson is a very religious person. He does not hide it. He'll say to me sometimes at lunch, 'Sir, may we pray.' I'll say, 'Excuse me? We're having lunch.'"

To see such a man of faith, such love of Christ, brings a tear to the eye, i have to tell you. You can see how much it has formed his life!

There aren't enough ICE agents to do this in a single major city in a single swing state in a way that could determine the outcome. It's just him wishing they had the power to do it. They don't.

Took a look at the Mike Lindell for MN Governor website. Very strange flag with black cross symbol and message that is mainly whining and arguing that he should be elected governor to make up for how badly he's been treated. Strong start.

There are people who did public acts of protests that they put their names and faces to in the Soviet Union throughout the 60s, 70s and 80s. That was a far more authoritarian context than the US in 2026. It's bad but we have a long way to go down the authoritarian path to match that.

Unfortunately this has become relevant again.
The threat assessments of many random Bluesky posters seem to be higher than people actively involved in leading organized protests in places like Hungary, Turkey and Hong Kong.

There was some talk at the beginning of Trump’s 2024 win of a larger cultural shift and that stopped pretty quickly when it became obvious that the Right is even more culturally irrelevant than before. We’ve gone from “The Sound of Freedom” to the Melania movie
the concept of Trump demolishing the Kennedy Center because no one would perform there, and then reopening it 2 years later for the headliner which I'm assuming by that point will be someone like Ted Nugent feat. The Charlie Kirk Band, is darkly hilarious.

The Mel Brooks documentary on HBO is really good. They put some not funny people in it too to create contrast and remind the audience how funny he is.
