Can't help but feel we're living through an increasingly existential war between spectacle and substance with spectacle winning battle after battle after battle.

Des fois je me dis que ce que Trump met en place aux USA ressemble un peu au Nuremberg 2.0 promis par nos chers comploplos.

Pas un vrai procès.
Mais une sorte de vengeance contre la connaissance, la raison, la science...

Forget Trump. He’ll never change and he’s too deranged to accomplish anything without massive collaboration and enabling. THEY’RE the problem: the feckless, collaborating institutions and their quisling leaders. Turn your ire towards them

Two photos that should deeply disturb you. A thread. 🧵

The first photo is of a young Venezuelan named Andrys—a 23-year-old gay makeup artist who was disappeared by the Trump administration, recently identified publicly for the first time.

Trump is STILL - RIGHT NOW - tweeting about Tesla. He's spent more time protecting the richest man in the world's profits than he has protecting healthcare, education, jobs, or veterans in the last 6 weeks as president.

I've said it before and will say it again -- the Trump administration is not acting like one that fears democratic accountability next year or in 2028. Draw your own conclusions.
it's still just striking to me that we're five weeks into this, and neither trump nor musk are offering up any treats, to anyone. everything is bad news. everything makes life harder. the only thing they're offering is a tax cut for *extremely* wealthy people, at the expense of *everyone* else.

DOGE recommends cuts to the FAA.

Hundreds of workers get fired, including those tasked with producing air traffic navigation maps.

Now Starlink is reportedly in line to take over a $2 billion contract to upgrade the nation's air traffic control systems.

See how this works?

The Elon Musk playbook:

1) kill govt agencies investigating him

2) remove govt officials who could stop him

3) kill govt contracts belonging to rival companies

4) give all the govt contracts to his own companies

"If the GOP could pull Trump’s dick out of their mouths long enough for the oxygen to return to their brains, they might see how batshit crazy it is to run a govt like this... But that would require a spine and these Republicans have the collective courage of a baby deer caught in a 6-lane highway."

Hitler, who I do not support, never would have embraced genocide, which I also do not support, if the Weimar shitlibs hadn't tried so hard to deplatform him.

"One of the great tragedies of mankind is that morality has been hijacked by religion. So now people assume that religion and morality have a necessary connection. But the basis of morality is really very simple and doesn't require religion at all."

What Musk did to Twitter is what he would do to government:

- Destroy value

- Destroy trust

- Enshittified user experience

- Attract & reward grifters

- Manipulation to favor the strong and throttle the marginalized

- Attract & reward the worst people in the world

The template holds up well.
They’re really gonna try to run the government the way Musk ran Twitter, huh?
