The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased.
Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power.
Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable.
But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless.

Explain to me how they can find the person who threw a sandwich last night in DC, but they still can’t figure out who the 2021 Capitol Pipe Bomber is.

I cannot emphasize enough how true & real this is.
In almost anywhere on the political spectrum you ID with or major issue, there’s probably a bot/troll operation to encourage your rage and vitriol.
And how/where that rage gets directed, esp understandable rage, is what they are out to influence.

People on this app get really angry every time I point out that social media manipulation is a real phenomenon that we are all stewing in and that’s having real world consequences and I’m sure part of that is engagement farmers who do that manipulation not liking people talking about it

Congrats to Lisa Murkowski on voting for a bill that she herself admitted was not ready in hopes that the House would change it. Now it’ll become law. She had the power to stop it, and instead chose to become complicit. That’s her legacy.

Today’s good thing. In my break from work I walked by a house with a chicken coop right next to a waist height fence; in the middle of suburbia I got to feed some chickens! 🐓😊

On my walk today past a Japanese maple (? I think), I looked down and saw in the concrete sidewalk this little surprise. I’ll never know if someone gently pulled it away or if it disintegrated, but it I enjoyed noticing it and will now every time I walk by. 🍁

A very annoying thing about these times is that there is so much terrible unjust unfathomable stuff happening in so many different directions but my brain keeps getting stuck on things like "should I stockpile ziplock bags?"
