crazy how much this bugs me now that someone pointed it out. if i worked at the white house, i would find this ugly, but not as annoying as i do now. ignorance is really bliss bc they more you learn, the more you just walk around thinking "collar gap" and "kerning is off."

Black American soldiers literally dug these WWII graves. Traumatic. To acknowledge that fact at a cemetery they helped construct is something the Heritage Foundation cannot accept. As Veterans Day approaches, never forget that this country both compels and disrespects Black military service. Always.
1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

Elon Musk endorses Cuomo for mayor of New York and makes sure to add some racism in there: “…Mumdumi or whatever his name is.”

Over 71 million Americans are paid less than a living wage, and are forced into social safety nets like SNAP.
If you think too many people are receiving SNAP benefits, don’t shame them.
Shame their employers paying them poverty wages and forcing taxpayers to subsidize the rest.

Clearer than ever that the Epstein Files are what could bring this all crashing down and they're trying to get everything fascisted up before anyone can make that happen
Rep. Johnny Olszewski D-MD (lower left) tried but failed to get recognized on the House floor today to get Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva D-AZ sworn in. Speaker Johnson has refused to seat Grijalva for more than 3 weeks. "This is wrong and you know it Mr. Speaker."

I hear the President has decreed that it is possibly a crime to refer to Americans as "fascists," but "fascism" is a word that has a relatively clear meaning that's worth understanding. Here's how an official publication of the US Army defined "fascism" in 1945.
The central point is that when fascism came to America it wouldn't call itself that, nor would it be wearing a swastika. It would call itself "patriotic" and "100% American."

I am just going to keep posting that the TX governor recently pardoned a political murderer.
The dude texted "I'm going to shoot protestors", then went and shot a Black Lives Matter protester. He was convicted in a jury trial.
Hard to find a more blatant example of celebrating political violence.

A Travis County jury sentenced Perry to 25 years in prison last year, prompting Abbott to ask the state parole board to review his case.

These are the Trump Administration’s demands on UCLA, in addition to a 1.2 billion dollar fine, as reported by the LA Times today. I must note again that the Trump Administration’s attempt to use title vi to enforce conservative agenda items is flagrantly illegal.

Because, but their definition of “tyranny,” it isn’t tyrannical.
Cowie’s Freedom’s Dominion should be one of those everyone-must-read books.
To some ppl, freedom = freedom FROM oppression.
For others (like MAGA), freedom = freedom TO oppress.
There’s nothing hypocritical here.

As a friend recently put it: the venn diagram of people who assured us the gun violence was worth it because we need the guns to protect ourselves against a tyrannical federal government and the people cheering on Trump as he deploys the military to take over American cities is a circle
Q: Would you welcome federal resources going into a part of South Carolina with a high crime rate?
