I, like many of you, am not only devastated but furious at the assassination of two Minnesota lawmakers this morning.

This isn’t some isolated tragedy. It’s extremism, it’s fascist violence, and we have to treat it that way. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

The same way a lot of people didn't realize how big the QAnon problem was until those fuckers literally stormed the capital, I fear we're a year or two away from a shocking discovery of just how many "seemingly normal" people have lost their minds "talking" with ChatGPT.
"The moderators of a pro-artificial intelligence Reddit community announced that they have been quietly banning 'a bunch of schizoposters' who believe 'they've made some sort of incredible discovery or created a god or become a god.'"

If a Muslim in the US publicly called for a missile strike on a famous celebrity activist onboard a civilian ship or plane, the FBI would be investigating them for terrorism.

But a rich white guy gets to incite violence without any consequences 🤷🏽‍♂️👇🏽

This is where we are now: A city in Northern California isn’t just making homelessness illegal—it’s criminalizing those who *help* people living on the street.

Under a new ordinance, “aiding or abetting” an encampment would be a misdemeanor, punishable by a $1,000 fine and up to six months in jail.

Also, part of the reason we did bought InfoWars is because people on Bluesky told us it would be funny to buy InfoWars. And those people were right. This is the funniest thing that has ever happened.

I am literally an expert on right-wing extremism. I was actually hired to make an hour-long video essay about white Christian nationalism last month.

You should check it out, especially because the shit you’re talking about goes way further back than Bush Sr:

In my new op-ed for @tnr.bsky.social: Democrats abandoned their base for a neoconservative pipe dream.

That's why we, the people, must come in and transform the party, whether its entrenched leadership wants it or not: newrepublic.com/article/1881...
Democrats Need to Clean House Before They Screw Up Again
It wasn't just the people running Kamala Harris's campaign who failed. The leadership of the entire party is at fault.
