In the 2010s, this country's elites were thrown onto social platforms with everyone else and could finally read what we all think about them and it caused them so much psychic damage that they decided to destroy both the internet and democracy to make sure nothing like it ever happened again.
If this is what it took for you to be pushed into fascism you were probably already there

1. In the immediate aftermath of Charlie Kirk's shooting, the WSJ laundered claims that "transgender symbols" were found with the shooter's gun.

Now, a press conference reveals that NO such symbols were found.

WSJ owes a full retraction and apology.

Press Conference: No "Transgender" Or "LGBTQ" Symbols Found At Kirk's Shooting
Yesterday, several media outlets claimed or strongly implied that "transgender symbols" were found at the scene of the gun used by Charlie Kirk's shooter. This turned out to be false.

If you say 'heteronormative' or 'unhoused person' or 'food insecurity' you're basically talking gibberish and nobody can understand you but if you say you can see inflammation in children at the airport and that vaccines lower IQ or that germs are a myth you get to fire all the scientists.

All my love to fellow gender dropouts, to the trans folks, to the queers, to the gender deviants.

They can't legislate you or me out of existence because someone just like us is being born right now. And that will keep happening.

And we will do everything we can to build the world they need.

I am *begging* people to look up the actual history of the Luddite movement with it being bandied about everywhere.

They weren't anti-tech, they were anti-exploitation, anti-Industrialist, pro-worker safety textile worker radicals who disabled factory machines that were maiming and killing workers.

I'd say the obvious question is whether Biden, Harris, et al. regret being unflinchingly supportive of Israel and hostile toward voters whose primary concern was Gaza - but that's just me. I didn't hit myself in the head with a hammer 10 times before writing a piece for a neocon website.
The worsening conditions in Gaza under the Trump administration raise the obvious question of whether pro-Palestine voters and groups who sat out the election feel even a tinge of regret. Mostly, no.

The latest from @lauren-egan.bsky.social: www.thebulwark.com/p/pro-palest...
Pro-Palestinian Activists Gave Trump a Boost. They Have No Regrets.
Groups that rallied against Biden and Harris say they’d do it all over again.

plenty of cultures value children, but the US is unique in valuing the *idea* of children while enabling violence against actual kids and keeping them in privation at every turn
there’s a lot going on here but one bit, where fash mom rants about “precious innocent children” that raises constant question I have - is there another culture that infantilizes and fetishizes the value of children so much? Is this a US thing? And I don’t remember it when I was young.
Everything about this from the lesbian teacher being married to lesbian cop to the other cops just letting the gun toting life threatening fashy mom just walk initially is so 2025 that I can't even stand it

The continual inability of people, including many (cis) reporters), to apply proper scrutiny to sources and consider the obvious possibility that some parents -- and yes, even certain practitioners -- might have a transphobic perspective is really astounding.
