In 1935, Goebbels said: "...we [National Socialists] used democratic methods only... to gain the power and that, after assuming the power, we would deny to our adversaries without any consideration the means which were granted to us in the times of opposition. (2412-PS)

Kamala Harris said Trump would become a dictator, drive up costs, give tax breaks to the rich, make health care less accessible & implement project 2025. Trump denied it all but Kamala was right on all counts. Still some voters aren't sure whether to support Democrats. Wake up!

If you think the rules apply to everyone, and your opponent thinks the rules only apply to you, then guess what? The rules only apply to you.

ICE not allowing agents to have unsupervised copies of ICE policies or to take any notes is an admission by ICE that it knows the policies are illegal.

One of the defining features of our political era is straightforward conservatives pretending to be ideologically complex.
Instead of absorbing this baldly obvious fact, this entire magazine is dedicated to repeating their own lie about themselves.

It’s been two weeks since the statutory deadline expired for the Justice Department to explain to Congress the reason for any redactions. Trump’s crew has missed that deadline as well.

No, these are very serious comments.
ChatGPT has absolutely no goddamn place in graduate education. It steals from other authors, routinely gets major facts wrong, hallucinates sources, and generally makes the prose flat and boring as hell.
And if you shill for it in my mentions, I'll block you.

FYI:
“There won’t be elections” and
“There might be elections but they’ll just deny the results so it won’t count”
IS VOTER SUPPRESSION LANGUAGE.
You say this, YOU are participating in discouraging people from voting.
You are part of the problem.

Obama really broke their brains, didn't he?
That overreaction was the worst thing that has happened to this country since WWII.
That makes him a hero to me, a human middle finger to the chuds, but it's also true that Cletus McHayseed wasn't ready for it and that's why we are in this mess.

All the people trying to suck up to Trump and not offend him are so pathetic. And I include cultural institutions and curators in that “all the people” trying to suck up. Some day we will look back on all these events and remember who went along with it without a fight.

“We can’t vote our way out of this!”
Well, no. Not exclusively. Voting is PART of a strategy.
And a strategy that doesn’t include it isn’t one that should be taken seriously. At that point it’s just excuses to not do the bare minimum.
