if you want people to like you while you break things, you need to bribe them, instead this administration thinks people will like you if you punch them in the face

you think you're using AI to lift up your community, but you're really just stealing from artists to give money to billionaires while polluting marginalized neighborhoods, while training it how to be more influential to your community.

hmmm.

Solve Climate Change
Build Housing
Stop The Genocide
Protect The Dolls

I guess what this leaves out is continuing police reform and probably something about AI/Silicon Valley Fash but like seems like a neat enough summary of left-liberal American political priorities, no?
Meanwhile Bluesky wants us to solve climate change, build housing, stop the genocide, and protect the dolls. You know, engage with the world that actually exists. Like adults.

I’m sick of being lectured about “demanding purity tests” and being “uncompromising” when the actually existing Democratic establishment is demanding purity tests and being uncompromising *for* genocide, not even against it.
Let’s get morality out of the equation; let’s just treat pro-Palestine supporters as a normal part of the electoral coalition. They have gotten *nothing* in concessions from the Party—not even symbolic concessions. And while they may not be a majority, they are a big enough constituency to matter.
The replies to this (very reasonable) post by AOC are filled with people who essentially couldn’t care less about having a coalition that could ever win an election. Purity testing everything, vilifying people who don’t pass them, but then ripping AOC for voting against a proposal by…Marjorie Greene

Life isn’t a fucking debate club, ideas exist in context and the idea that it’s a sign of enlightened thinking to hear out things that are clearly bullshit from people that are clearly being dishonest is poison.

I agree with this. The problem is that this is in fact the country that the elites want and also regular people haven't built enough power to overthrow the current order. The elites support fascism.

Look at this shit! If Dems lose the messaging war on which party is full of pedos, it's their own fucking fault. There are mountains of evidence to point to. Why does shit like this not get factored into the overall narrative? Are the managing ranks at the papers full of pedos too? What's going on
Rakim Sharkey, 31, could have spent the rest of his life in prison for sex trafficking three people — two of whom were children. But in 2023 a prosecutor with Ken Paxton's office let the man plead guilty to a charge with no prison time and no sex offender status.
Prosecutors for Ken Paxton cut this alleged sex trafficker a deal. He was just rearrested.

While we often talk about America as a nation that has racially progressed, the truth is that there have always been two concurrent movements, one advancing civil rights and liberties, and the other seeking to diminish them.

Republicans stay screaming about law & order…But won’t release the Epstein files.

They sit up here posting conspiracy theories all day…But won’t release the Epstein files.

They’re quick to call a hearing or launch an investigation on some BS…But (say it with me) won’t release the Epstein files.

Related, if any harder evidence of Trump's pedophilia comes to light house democrats should introduce articles of impeachment against him for it and make every Republican in congress have that vote on their record

Indicting Obama for treason would definitely not backfire
REPORTER: Gabbard has submitted a criminal referral. Who should the DOJ target?

TRUMP: It would be President Obama. And Biden was there with him ... the leader of the gang was Obama. Barack Hussein Obama. He's guilty. This is treason.

"We are very powerfully releasing the Roswell files, the long form Zapruder film and the extremely suspicious Hillary email investigation and we demand nobody ask about our files connecting me to Epstein and the Pedo flights, thank you for your attention to this matter!"
Does this administration realize there's a point where the attempted distractions are such a comical stretch they just reinforce the central conspiracy?
