It's fascism time. Here is Miller, channeling Goebbels, and encouraging Trump's thug posse to go to town on the domestic enemy:
![[On] 1 October, in Memphis, ... Stephen Miller [spoke] before a rally of Ice agents and federal marshals in anticipation of the arrival of a contingent of national guard troops. Miller delivered his imitation of Patton. “The gangbangers that you deal with – they think they’re ruthless? They have no idea how ruthless we are. They think they’re tough? They have no idea how tough we are. They think they’re hardcore? We are so much more hardcore than they are.” Miller, not any mere general, gave the order. “You are unleashed.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:e6ur6jc6v3wreqckf4bi5vpl/bafkreiar6npxdd4kr2nu7ig6gyackrtaxkrozjbv63kd26qzbwjpbmbfpu@jpeg)

David Ellison owns Skydance Media, the company that wants to buy CBS/Paramount. The Guardian calls him the "son of the tech billionaire Larry Ellison, co-founder of Oracle, and an ally of Trump." Firing Colbert was totally not political.
Ellison has a degree from UCLA in Masturbation.

Wednesday, I got off a train after a 70-hour trip (CA-NY).
Should have trainposted, I guess.

Iranians can stop chanting "Death to America". It's already dead.
At least that America that we, as friends of equality and democracy, had grown up believing in; even if we came to see that the country, close up, wasn't really what we hoped it was.

Honestly, I believe that being steeped in ideology does the trick. Himmler's speech to SS leaders comes to mind, where he addresses the atrocities, and assures the audience, "throughout all that, you remained *decent*."

Might "Titanic" be in danger of sinking?
Critics say the ship has already been on the sea floor for a century. Passengers did not return calls for interviews. We spoke to an iceberg.

LA is, in fact, almost as large as Berlin, which explains why Erich Kästner's 1929 poem translates so well.
Hatred of cities - of modernity, cosmopolitanism, freedom - zooms in on LA like a movie camera on a villain's face.

Biden is looking terrible, poor guy! The burden of the high office, the cancer, and the weight of history on his shoulders as the man who stood by and looked on as fascism came into power!
