Amazing to learn that Isaac Chotiner can apparently just come for you in your replies. Like suddenly realizing you're swimming in open ocean

ABOLISH ICE and EXPAND THE SUPREME COURT should be mainstream Democratic promises and talking points.

But timidity and civility will rule the day and screw the rest of us and this country in the end.

I’m sorry for the long post but a lot of you have followed me for a long time, since 2016 when I was one of the first to repeatedly call out Trump for being a Russian asset.

I don’t know how else to say this, as a person who has studied cults (wrote a bestseller about it) and totalitarian states.

If you think the reason the billionaire donors, the DNC, and their aligned media outlets go nuts over "defund the police" is because "defund" is the wrong word and they'd be much more receptive if we just used a different word, then I suggest you think harder.

Andrew Cuomo gets publicly humiliated. Bill Clinton learns his endorsement is worth less than dogshit. What a great time to be a hater. A golden age.

Really need to stop with the “Should we be concerned?” and only the immunocompromised, vulnerable, & elderly are at risk re: COVID. We are all at risk & vulnerable! Be concerned! And please wear a well-fitting respirator & protect yourself & others.

Every day that we continue allowing ourselves to be restrained by systems that have been completely corrupted and perverted and to look to elections that may or may not happen and may or may not be free or fair, we lose precious time to organize and do what must be done.

Stop waiting.

Authoritarians and their benefactors the wealth class use our systems against us. Liberal democracy becomes a weapon, a cudgel, a cage that gets increasingly smaller and smaller and more and more cruel.

The social contract is broken. Continuing to cling to it is a surefire route to disaster.

The Supreme Court is illegitimate.

Not just because it is stolen, and it is, and not because it is corrupt, and it is, but because it is wrong and it does not represent the interests of the people.

We have to get comfortable with unchaining ourselves from tradition, norms, and decorum.

I’ll never get over how, in an era when women’s rights and status are being attacked and eroded in law and culture alike, we were incessantly told that it was boys and men whose suffering we needed to attend to.

The reason the coup attempt in South Korea failed as quickly as it did is because South Koreans immediately rushed to the streets to say “we won’t let you do that” and force the military to decide whether they’d shoot their fellow citizens or not.

Important for us remember over the next 4 years.

I’ve been writing The Gauntlet, about the ongoing COVID crisis since 2022. In Nov 2023, I caught COVID and went on to develop severe Long COVID. Through it all, I’ve continued to report on the state’s decision to normalize the pandemic.

Just to be clear. Every time anyone blames anything on the lockdown, they are deluded or dishonest. Blaming the lockdown is denying the seriousness of the virus. The COVID virus, not lockdowns, is to blame for economic, social & health upheavals since 2020 & for ongoing damage
