It's not just authoritarianism. The selling point of Trump is that he is not a member of the US establishment. His connection to Epstein proves that he's embedded in the establishment in the worst possible way.
"As a rule, coverups are difficult in free societies. They are routine for authoritarian governments. The Epstein coverup will be an indicator of how far we are down the road to authoritarianism. The success of a coverup would take us much further down that road." open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa...

It would be better if countries were kicked out if their public broadcaster didn't have clear regulations ensuring neutrality. This would easily eliminate 🇮🇱 and 🇦🇿, which have both used Eurovision to pinkwash war crimes.

TRUMP [after spending 5 minutes with Zohran]: surplus value, it’s a very wonderful thing, very wonderful, and they’re stealing it. Can you believe that?

So, this thread--particularly @lizthegrey.com's useful explanation of how the relevant databases actually work--is worth reading in response to the Erin in the Morning story that's terrifying our community today.
But I'll add a few broad points about Where We Are and scaremongering.

I'm sharing this bit for folks in my specific situation (F on my passport which is correct, got it changed during the Biden admin):
"For those who updated their passports before this administration, any attempt to revoke those documents would be far more complicated. [...]" (1/2)
"For those who updated their passports before this administration, any attempt to revoke those documents would be far more complicated. [...]" (1/2)
The intent, for anyone paying attention, is clearly to revoke trans peoples’ passports and then refuse to issue new ones, keeping us captive and on a state extermination list.

"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

More than anything else, powerful men - like the ones who run the NYT - believe in the legitimacy of power itself. Because if it isn’t legitimate, they have to start asking hard questions about the world and themselves.

A VP's job is to break ties in the senate.
Dick Cheney knew what his job as vice-president was: to do whatever it took, whatever the cost, to defend America. And that cost, said his critics, was high

Saying Tylenol causes autism is just lazy. Everyone knows it's caused by pressing your nose up to a CRT TV so you can see the tiny red/green/blue squares that make all your favourite cartoons.

What's especially stupid is news orgs like WaPo, NYT, pull shit like this, or water down their coverage to protect themselves from Trump, when it literally Does Not Do That. Trump pulls shit arbitrarily, because that's how authoritarian censorship*actually* works.
New from me:
There's a lot of misinformation around the reasons I was fired from WaPo.
Here's the official termination letter I got sent by Washington Post.

In every other Stephen King book, it is understood that there is a violent, bigoted undercurrent to small town America. Characters either tap into that for evil, or fight it for good. When Dems say 'voters are bigots and we must pander to them', they're the former.
The headline says Mamdani offers only limited lessons for Democrats but the author's only evidence is a series of false and racist attacks by Republicans. Is the lesson that Democrats shouldn't run Muslims or minorities?

The recent ones in MN and LA are political theatre for Trump voters, not just because they're filling Miller's quotas for brown people (and obvs harming them in the process) but because Trump voters get to watch liberal cities getting invaded militarily by the feds, supported by local cops.
I don't care if these monstrous ICE raids are a "federal operation". This is authoritarian violence, plain and simple.
Just because Stephen Miller has kidnapping quotas for brown people he doesn't want to see on the street doesn't mean we have to think it's okay.
