Unscientific vibe shift prediction: wouldn't be surprised if you saw a shift among liberal artists who take politics more seriously/are very tapped into the zeitgeist from "you can't trust THE MAN, who has AN AGENDA" to "you can't trust selfish people who won't cooperate when it's needed"

Q for Dem debates: "If you take office in 2029, what will you do in the first 100 days to hold high-level members of the Trump administration accountable for their crimes?"

One reason we failed in the past is bc we didn't build up popular opposition to the crimes, whether it's torture or drone-killing or even attacking Congress.
Now is the time to do that, not after Dems retake power.

If Democrats are ever in power again what’s going to happen is the idea of holding this administration accountable for breaking the law every single day is immediately going to be made out as the greater breach of the rules.

I've said this before but it bears repetition: the consequence of allowing bigotry & other cruelty into your coalition is that everyone starts to stand up for one another a lot less. That's one reason why tolerance of bigotry &/or cruelty is the antithesis of good antifascism.

I think Mamdani is doing what he has to for his voters by charming the pants off Donald Trump, and I'm glad he's got the natural charisma to do it, but I do want to point out that people would absolutely savage Whitmer or Shapiro for doing the same

Although, thinking about it, making nice with fascists, at least temporarily, is probably the most communist thing Mamdani has ever done.

Both of these fucking dumbfucks are responsible for all of this.
Joe Rogan and Theo Von slam DHS for using Von's image in a video promoting deportation:
"I was like, oh my God, what the fuck are they doing? That's not how you envision the government."
"They were making, like, deportation hype videos with trap beats and shit. What are we doing? It's idiocracy."

sorta feel like you might skip the diversity report either because you don’t care about diversity or because you very much do, right now
Tech companies are backing away from creating diversity reports.
Microsoft, which released its annual diversity and inclusion report in 2024, is choosing to not do one in 2025.
