One of the reasons the right is convinced that violence is only directed at them is their ability to ignore and forget all the acts of violence committed against the other side of the aisle.

Ask Trump about the firebombing of Shapiro's home or the plot to kidnap Whitmer and I guarantee he'd whiff.
Reporter: Do you think it would have been fitting to lower the flags for Melissa Hortman who was killed as well?

Trump: Uh, I’m not familiar, who?

Owens claims that Netanyahu called Kirk last month while he was in the Hamptons with Bill Ackman, Seth Dillon and others and offered Kirk a "reeducation" trip to Israel + major funding for Turning Points USA. She claims Kirk declined.

Owens shows a recent clip of Kirk on Megyn Kelly's show talking about the pressure he's been under to unequivocally support Israel. She says Bill Ackman staged an intervention with Kirk in the Hamptons shortly before his death and "threats were made."

pointing out the rights hypocrisy about freedom of speech doesn’t really do too much but i honestly am just stunned how blatantly and quickly they reversed on pretty much every constitutional freedom the moment they gained full power

When I worked at UT, the campus hosted Nazi speakers (twice, I think), and a professor called for cars to "run down" protestors.

He wasn't disciplined.

JD Vance wants to go after the Ford Foundation, eh? Interestingly, the Ford Foundation has long been in the crosshairs of the American far right for their supposed funding of "hateful, radical left, anti-white propaganda." Here's an example of that talk from the 1955 edition of The White Sentinel.

To state the obvious, I was not paid by the Ford Foundation or Open Society to write the column, which is what Vance is alleging and he's saying he is going after those groups. Not the first time he's spouted conspiracy theories involving the Soroses to deflect criticism: apnews.com/article/jd-v...

Democratic elected officials, here's some unsolicited advice.

People are looking for leadership. Right now. This moment.

Someone, anyone, take the konch and forcefully respond to JD Vance and Stephen Miller's promise to declare war against America.

Speak up now. Press conference today.

”Black radical thinkers have long sought to expand the historical and political imagination of an anti-fascist left.”

They moved beyond the European analogy and emphasized racial slavery, colonialism, the prison industrial complex, and surveillance technology.

The Long Shadow of Racial Fascism - Boston Review
A debate is roiling about the aptness of comparing Trump to European fascists. But radical Black thinkers have long argued that racial slavery created its own unique form of American fascism.

I believe in labor unions and am a member. But many romanticize them as if they magically solve things.

In academia, job cuts, restructuring, and political repression are happening at schools with faculty and staff unions. Many union members are racist and anti-leftist. The struggle is constant.

Ursula K. Le Guin said, “It haunts me when people tell me how incredibly farsighted I was to be talking about climate change and climate destabilization and the degradation of the natural world, back in the 60s. I wasn’t! I was just listening to the scientists.”

Watching a video about the Civil Rights Movement and the Freedom Summer and it noted how names of Black people trying to exercise their rights would be published in lists to institutionally punish them. Today’s methods of surveillance and political punishment have roots and not just in McCarthyism.

Elon Musk has shared an obviously AI-generated image of the Unite the Kingdom rally in London.

The first AI error is that the Arc de Triomphe is in Paris, not London. And once you zoom in, you'll notice that the Union Jacks and the crowd have other errors typical of AI images.

The Minneapolis shooter was apparently a fan of several mass murderers who were motivated by the same "Great Replacement Theory" that has pretty much taken over the Republican Party.
After showing his guns emblazoned with racial slurs, far-right slogans, Minneapolis shooting suspect displayed a message "Hail Breivik. Hail Brenton."

Neo-Nazi Anders Breivik killed 77 in Norway in 2011. Brenton Tarrant killed 51 in shootings at 2 mosques in New Zealand in 2019.
