I'm a "retired" teacher in Florida, now an underground educator...it's a long story...a sociologist and writer. The Mad Sociologist Blog is my main project and is one of the top twenty sociology blogs on the internet (by the measure I choose to use).
Of all the desperate MAGA Mouthfrother comments on the No Kings Protests I saw, this one was the dumbest. Look, we know if he were King we wouldn't be allowed to protest. He and MAGA have made that perfectly clear. That's why we protest!

MAGA either doesn't know how Medicaid works, or they think they are in on the grift. Many MAGA are going to find out after the midterms that they are definitely NOT in on the grift.

I'm not an economist, but...this can't be good. Any economists looking at my posts? Is this not good? How not good is it?

Meanwhile, MAGA support holds strong. Non-MAGA support is collapsing...but they both continue to hate immigrants.

Just cancelled my Washington Post subscription. I subscribed years ago for the reporting. I enjoyed the editorial page with diverse perspectives from George Will on the right to Eugene Robinson on the left. Now the post will be Bezos' newsletter. I'll spend my money on public & independent media.

This is for #teachers & friends w/ children. Last week I learned that teachers are ordered NOT to teach students their fundamental rights. I made this primer for young people to learn the script if they find themselves in being interrogated. Please share mrandosciasclassroom.net/2025/02/10/y...

This is the banner for MAGA. The Orange Don has power because he has followers. It's the oldest tactic. Whip up hatred against "the other," then you need only offer your base the spectacle of inflicting pain on those they hate. Cartoonist Ann Telnaes nailed it. open.substack.com/pub/anntelna...

Food production is set up to take a major hit. And, no, these jobs will not be filled by Americans...certainly not at the same wages.

Elon Musk & Vivek Ramaswamy say they want to cut the federal workforce by 50%-75%. Here are their targets. Musk is not going to make cuts that threaten his massive government contracts. So, who does that leave? How many ardent Trump voters rely on the services that these departments provide?

Most voters saw a felon, rapist, and naked conman who promised that he would heap pain on the people they resented, and they said, "Yeah! That's my guy!" As a member of one group (leftists and small "d" democrats) on that list, an enemy within, I can say we better stand in solidarity with the rest

More children gunned down in school. Queue the "Hopes and Prayers". Clearly, praying is not an effective #guncontrol strategy.

I wanted to do a Columbo meme for some time. It didn't take much scrolling through social media to find a reason. The conspiracy theories I'm seeing are nothing short of ridiculous and absurd right on the surface. Seriously. Oh! and yes, the so-called "BlueAnon" conspiracies are also garbage.
