i see they're going even deeper down the "doing nazi shit" checklist
I’m kind of speechless with this one. I can’t imagine the kind of person who continues to make the argument that it doesn’t count as real starvation if the kids were already sick.

shoulda been an anime
Makes sense. Not a very well done show—often genuinely painful to watch because of the pacing and acting—and the books get so much worse after 6 that the source material isn’t really worth it.

the problem is the Democratic Party itself. I earnestly do not believe that supporting the Democratic Party serves any function other than kicking the can down the road on alternative as conditions worsen, and the social stakes of inaction are pushed ever further upward. A different party is needed
One reason I don't think it's useful to argue about the correct tactics for Democrats to win elections is winning elections isn't enough. They've won the presidency 5 out of 9 times since 1992 and where are we now. The question is how we create something better than a dead cat bounce party

In what might be the logical endpoint of American Zionism, the Heritage Foundation has declared that pro-Palestinian activism is not just antisemitic, but is in fact a shadowy global conspiracy … led by Jews. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/18/u...

Incredible — After shooting at a group of diplomats from nearly *two dozen* countries, the Israeli military says it "regrets the inconvenience caused."

The diplomats were from China, Brazil, India, Russia, Japan, Canada, Mexico, France, Türkiye, Spain, Portugal, Jordan, the UK, Egypt, and more.

always fun to ask people to get specific when this comes up, because the answer, should they actually provide one, typically demonstrates exactly how little they know about Chapo or the deep cynicism/myopia of their own political perspectives
The left cannot purge the Chapo brainrot fast enough. It turns out that caring about stuff, even when it's cringe, is in fact good.
Building a mass movement (instead of a subculture) will require a lot of cringe, so get comfortable with it

"Opening the canopy dries out the forest floor and increases wind speeds, both of which accelerate fire. Logging can also leave behind more combustible species like cheatgrass, an opportunistic invasive"

Logging increases wildfires. We have the most ignorant, anti-science people in charge.
Why We Can’t Log Our Way Out of Wildfires
Trying to prevent forest fires with more logging may only make them worse, fire ecologists say. Will the federal government listen?

I continue to be proven correct on the state of the economy despite what a bunch of frauds have thought and will probably continue to think even after the bottom falls out. embarrassing, frankly.

I know we're all tired of pointing this out, but this is what the lesser of two evils gets you. the lesser evil keeps the toolbox stocked for the greater evil.

Obama didn't want to fight over Gitmo Guantanamo Bay, so he didn't. Biden was fine with Guantanamo Bay, so he kept it.
Trump announces an executive order authorizing a 30,000 capacity migrant detention center in Guantanamo.

"Some of them are so bad we don't even trust the countries to hold them because we don't want them coming back, so we're going to send them out to Guatanamo Bay."

our "immigration officials" in the form of ICE and the Border Patrol are actually the closest thing we have to true fascist paramilitary btw
House votes 263-156 to pass the Laken Riley Act—which will enable Trump’s ICE to put migrants in detention without due process & empower states to block visa programs & federal immigration policy.

46 Democrats voted with Republicans.
12 Senate Democrats did the same.
Will be first bill Trump signs.

really says it all. beyond the talking points and discourse, Biden was more fixated on himself and allowing Israel to do what they wanted to a captive civilian population than he was on stopping Trump.
