Avatar is a portrait of Gov. of Arkansas Powell Clayton who was not a perfect man but beat back the Klan more fiercely than any other Reconstruction Gov.

Can’t stop watching these videos coming out of MN of ordinary people refusing to move in the face of these homicidal power drunk petty tyrants. No matter what happens next, every time someone says no, the empire loses.

Yes. It’s similar to how the many of the Social Democrats in Germany opposed the Nazis, but then took all kinds of heat just because they said disbanding the SS was “going too far,” and might “alienate everyday Germans who are tired of all the bickering” and also were “skeptical about Jews.”
Classic Democratic no-win. All of them voted against the OBAA, which supercharged ICE funding and hiring. But they won't say they'd "abolish ICE" so they'll get yelled at (mostly by people who'll vote for them in the midterms after threatening not to).
Top Democrats decline to say if they would rein in ICE after Minnesota shooting

Elon musk, the world's richest man, just finished a stint as part of the US government where he oversaw the murder of hundreds of thousands of children and counting, and now is overseeing a website producing the most CSAM per minute in history.

Renee Nicole Good was not the first person to be murdered by ICE under Trump.

Keith Porter was a Black man killed by ICE on New Years Eve.

Silverio Gonzalez was an undocumented immigrant killed in Franklin Park.

Marimar Martinez was shot 5 times in Chicago & survived.

No one is safe.

ICE is a terrorist organization. They are the KKK run by the Federal Government. They are terrorists. We will not kowtow to terrorists. #ICE #Portland #Minneapolis #USA

Anticipating his death at the hands of his enemy, Bloch drafted a final thought: “All my life I have striven to achieve complete sincerity in word and thought. I hold that any compromise with untruth, no matter what the pretext, is the mark of a human soul’s ultimate corruption.”

This is a gift. Thank you to @siembranc.bsky.social for sharing this new toolkit with what they did when Border Patrol showed up in NC: docs.google.com/document/d/1... - share far and wide especially with our comrades in MN and LA (New Orleans esp).
Toolkit: how we dealt with Border Patrol
In November 2025, Border Patrol announced it would be coming to Charlotte, North Carolina. We only had a few days’ notice. Just like in Chicago and Los Angeles, they weren’t coming to “keep the peace....

across all the variations: the Baum novel, the original film, the Wiz, Wicked (the book), Wicked (the musical), the Great and Terrible, Wicked (the film), Tin Man, the common theme that unites them all is “Americans are especially susceptible to propaganda from conmen and shysters”
One of the things about the Wizard of Oz, and the Oz series in general, is that it's arguably the first big fantasy series heavily steeped in Americana.
one of the core myths of American stories and art. i really enjoyed the documentary “Lynch/Oz” which came out a few years ago, about the ways WoO shows ups in Lynch’s works

One of the reasons i love tolkien is the theme that despair is an enemy

and it makes clear you don’t need to have constant hope, you can get by with grim determination or spite but never despair
You can be as terrified or nonplussed or unperturbed as you like; the sun will still rise tomorrow & the rent will still be due on the 31st. The world has no romantic narratives for its fate except those we invent, because the world does not die. That is our privilege.
I said it elsewhere, but it’s weirdly exhilarating and addictive to be terrified all the time, and the people addicted to it, when they say this, may as well be saying “I can stop at any time, it’s just the world doing this *to* me.”

If the motto of the first Trump regime was the cruelty is the point (Adam Serwer) then the motto of the second is every accusation is a confession: the weaponization of the federal government against political opponents, the Trump crime family, and the torpedoing of the economy and U.S. hegemony.

My first piece for @theguardian.com on MBS’s visit to the U.S., seven years after Jamal Khashoggi’s murder.

Trump’s America is beginning to look like MBS’s Saudi Arabia— which Jamal warned me about.

Marjorie Taylor Greene has been disliked by the left for years and years and had never had to fear for her life. She's been disliked by the right for 1 day and now has to hire security.
