You grow up reading all the standard leftist and libertarian historians grouching about how Lincoln was a spineless moderate & settler colonial authoritarian and the union army were apolitical conscripts. But there was nonetheless some good fucking shit buried in all that.
i read stuff like this and can genuinely angry at guys like jd vance who insist that this country belongs to some narrow vision of the "native born"

“Само частното може да управлява, държавното е кражба!”

Но сега като частното си направи печалбата ефективно (защото само това го интересува) и инвестира абсолютно нищо, ще си замине, а всички ние ще спасяваме разпадащата се електропреносна система.
И това е столицата!

Saw a video pop up of a dog that lost 100 pounds and it was framed as a thing where the dog devoted itself to losing weight through an act of self-betterment instead of the dog’s owner just putting less food in the bowl

Being among the first interrogated and ultimately fired by DOGE, I certainly felt we were facing the business end of a right-wing conspiracy theory 🧵
DOGE was not a money-saving effort. It was an effort to chase down and prove right-wing conspiracy theories. They went after USAID to prove conspiracy theories about foreign aid. Then they went after SSA to, again, pursue conspiracy theories about Dems paying "illegals" to vote. 1/2
All DOGE accomplished was purging critical government staff, handing private data to outsiders, and sentencing thousands in developing countries to death by gutting USAID.

I don’t say this lightly: if there were any justice in this world, the people responsible for this devastation would be in jail

Since we are talking about pies...

MR. FLIP (1909) is often listed as having the first cinematic pie in the face but I found evidence of pies being deployed as early as 1901.

I cannot agree enough.

It’s no coincidence anarchism has been equated with random chaotic violence. It’s imperative that power never let the masses understand what is possible.
The feds target Anarchists because they know that if Americans really understood what capital-A Anarchy is all about, we'd take to it like ducks to water.

Both of these narratives are wrong imo

a) AI systems will never go away because they're getting cheaper and cheaper.

b) There isn't enough compute for the world, so whatever happens after the bubble "pops" will simply shift the compute being built to many other use cases.

i always come back to how the highest possible qualification for anything in trump world is "do they like me." when asked about stuff like tucker it's immediately and foremost "he says very nice things about me." it's so ingrained that it's his highest recommendation for key jobs: "she likes you!"

your movement has to be like 8 levels removed from reality to think that some of the starving kids in gaza also having serious medical conditions makes Israel look better. it's completely insane. they just think because it's an additional fact it's somehow exonerating.
Jewish Federations applauds Olivia Reingold, a staff writer at Bari Weiss's Free Press, as she victory laps her (ghoulish and erroneous) reporting that some of the children Israel was starving to death and denying medical aid to in Gaza had pre-existing conditions.

“The difference is we don’t protect Bill Clinton!”

We have literally known he’s a repeat sexual predator for decades and he still does the keynote at DNC events. Bullshit. Both parties defend predators. Both parties ELEVATE predators.
