I've been going to these fancy conferences and just doing a gloves off thing for the last few months and I feel freer than a guy with five DUIs riding an ebike on a sidewalk.

Everything they are doing & saying right now is very obviously meant to clear the way for mass repressive violence.
Fact checking is not going to do shit.
Talking about kitchen table issues is not going to do shit.
We need open, unapologetic defiance & conflict.

The conversation between Klein and Coates showed me that a lot of people who screech about “infighting” on the left aren’t aware of the fact that marginalized people have been forced to learn how to regulate their emotions during conflict, and so, are better able to hear what’s actually being said.

Nothing makes a billionaire realize he might have overrated his own intelligence quite like owning a sports franchise, which is why I think they all should be forced to buy one.

A lot of the commentators who deride Bluesky as a smaller or less active platform than X are totally clueless about how power on the internet works, which is also how they lost it to the alt-right. Internet culture fractured a while back. Niche spaces are actually the way to grow

These guys are unpopular and dumb as rocks, they did not discover a secret 'I win' button at the heart of all politics labeled 'mean tweets' or 'cancel elections.'

It's not a "free country" if the president can unilaterally declare that entire sections of a major city are under an indefinite and strict curfew enforced by military occupation for no reason and with no agreement or support from local elected officials.

The next Democratic president can just impound the billions of extra ICE funding on day one, right? Withhold it without any explanation? Since that’s a thing presidents can do now?

I just wish we could find some people as committed to fixing this country as MAGA is to breaking it.
THIS is the problem for Democrats. Every time theyre in office, “we can’t afford any of that stuff because its too expensive”. But MAGA finds a way to pay for it, don’t they?
