Okay, now that people are less inclined to think I'm a nutter: what is it do people think Dark MAGA is? It's a reference to "Dark Enlightenment". Dark Enlightenment is tied to the neoreactionary movement (NRX). It's right here, on Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_En...

Little Ba'la-bia, her twin toddler brothers and baby sister, victims of famine, were sold by their desperate parents to a rich man in ancient Emar. These are the footprints of two of them, pressed into clay and sealed like contracts, when the children were taken away from home c. 2200 years ago.

I believe there have been many Super Bowls, including these 2875-year-old (Late Bronze Age) examples from a pile-dwelling settlement in the fens!

This is the most relevant article to NIH and research cuts I’ve seen.

Imagine if this was today , how many people would be saying “Why are we studying Gila Monsters and their impact on diabetes ? That’s wasted money !”

What is my answer for a Constitutional crisis that tears at the heart of the republic? The same answer that Lincoln had for the one he faced: Set a boundary, call the bluff, and punish them for trying.
Despite what many of us learned in history class, there were no rules or guidelines for how to deal with states unilaterally leaving the Union. In fact, for months, nobody did anything! Putting down the illegal secession crisis was a choice, and the same goes for putting down the Musk coup.

I am still not talking about the fucking Democratic party. America has had dozens of political parties rise and fall. None of this is about what elected officials or would be politicians would do. Read a history book. Just one. And, understand revolutions are fought by normal people who get fed up

Can't wait to read this. Love Sarah's prophetic writing; she's a must-read during these times.

The cover image strikes every Detroiter and Rust Belt Midwesterner as familiar. Others have always seen our abandoned factories as ruin, and have judged our region (and fled!) accordingly. But now...

The sociopolitical alchemy they want us to perform is a form of self-sacrifice we are uninterested in this time around. Our resignation will accelerate the outcome, which is heartbreaking but our martyrdom would not fix this country and yte America has to grapple with that.

What you're hearing from a lot of Black folks lately isn't accelerationism. It's resignation!

From direct experience AND history, many of us don't believe that the majority in this country will interrupt this coup in time.

Millions would rather have dictatorship than democracy if they must share.

People need to understand this. Our institutions are made up of people! And they're being replaced with the wrong people, who have no fidelity to the words on the Constitution's parchment.

Social media is basically the political equivalent of squeaky toys for dogs. You can take a dog with an extremely high prey drive, give it a little toy that imitates the sound of small animals screaming, and it'll just sit in the corner all day looking cute while squeaking its pretend squirrel.
YOU CAN'T POST YOUR WAY OUT OF FASCISM: "The greatest of these sins is convincing ourselves that posting is a form of political activism, when it is at best a coping mechanism." Essential reading by Janus Rose in @404media.bsky.social:
You Can’t Post Your Way Out of Fascism
Authoritarians and tech CEOs now share the same goal: to keep us locked in an eternal doomscroll instead of organizing against them, Janus Rose writes.

Yes. Couldn't agree more.

Fascism is an ideology that has to be uprooted and burned. It cannot be reasoned with. It does not believe in bipartisanship or incrementalism.

And yes, it is, as our elders and ancestors knew 80 years ago, an existential threat to all of humankind.

Americans really need to better understand the ideology propelling Elon Musk, JD Vance, Peter Thiel, Marc Andreesen and others. It's dark shit. And the reality of it, is all public. But most people aren't paying attention. I have a major piece coming up to help understand it.
