it’s true that manic consumer culture buying sprees probably point to a gnawing fear of engaging the spirit, whose demands are rigorous and whose rewards would require us to acknowledge our eternal indwelling self-worth, but on the other hand did you see how much cool stuff I have

It's great that it looks like people react to all this horrible shit by voting against it. But we will wind up here again if we don't do something with that outrage. That's why it's important to get involved locally, and help shape the Democratic Party platform www.bbc.com/news/article...

Voting NO on the DHS funding bill is the bare minimum.

Backing Kristi Noem’s impeachment is the bare minimum.

Holding law-breaking ICE agents legally accountable is the bare minimum.

ICE is beyond reform. Abolish it.

I hope that Democrats realize what’s happening in Minnesota is also a dry run for what the regime has planned for the midterms.

"What can Democrats actually do?"

- Vote against funding for ICE and DHS

- State that any ICE officers who commit crimes under Trump will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law

- Encourage cities and states to refuse to cooperate with ICE

- Explain ICE is part of Trump's tyranny

As far as I can tell, Congress’ job is to call what the White House is doing illegal and then rubber stamp its budget

Bernie nails it again. So I'll state this again. The end goal of an oligarchy is a fascist state. Three essential actions:
Hoard the wealth.
Own the means of production.
Own the means of communication. (The media is lying to you.)
America -- You. Are. Here.

Let's end this now.

the problem with an untrained secret police squad that shoots people in their cars isn’t that they’re untrained

The problem isn't that we don't have enough for all. It's that we can never satisfy the ultra wealthy

Occupying the offices of Democratic Senators would actually get media attention. The right couldn't resist showing apparent dysfunction on the left, and the centrist media follows the right. The targets of the protest are also in the position to do something, withhold unanimous consent.

What if we started occupying the offices of Democratic Senators and demand they withhold unanimous consent until ICE is held in check? Our spineless leadership can clearly be influenced.
January 9, 2026 at 2:48 PM
It's become clear that that large protests and demonstrations are not effective. They are basically permitted fairs for liberals now. I think we need a more disruptive tactic to effect change.

I don't know why Democratic leadership in Washington is treating this year as business as usual. They should grind the Senate to a halt. Withhold unanimous consent on everything until ICE is stopped. They act like they have no power, but they have the most of anyone.

It’s fun to think about the surgeon who will botch your surgery 20 years from now and what he’s doing at this moment. He just ran all his homework through ChatGPT. He just read that article about vaccines and autism at the CDC website. He just watched an Instagram video about the moon landing hoax.

Here's your periodic reminder that political centrism is nonsense. There is no middle ground between democracy and oligarchy.
