He reminds me of Mr Bungle (The band). Their self-titled music album is like an entire metaphor for his admin and the republican party. I was just listening to it and laughing the other day, they should play it at his rallies. I have to make a meme of it....

The far right have also talked about introducing a consumption tax to pay for the abolition of the income tax for a long time now. I think that's what the tariffs are really for. These crackpots really think they can raise enough $$ that they can get rid of the income tax.

The money republicans decided to borrow to cover their losses.
Reagan "borrowed" three trillion dollars from your fund. Bush the war criminal "borrowed another $1.5 trillion.
Americans should have ended the republican party after the Reagan crime spree but no one would prosecute.

Thank you for these improvements.
I *strongly* second what @spryoldlorax.bsky.social says.
The current system lets people I blocked—maybe for harassment—continue to harass me from behind a block, while I can’t find the blocked account to report. This shields harassers.

You desperately need to prevent people that a user has blocked from adding them to lists.
If I block user X, user X should NOT be allowed to then add me to a list. This is almost entirely done for harassment purposes.
This simple change would prevent a lot of harassment.

Hitler’s rise exploited public fixation with the occult & paganism. A culture rejected natural science in favor of faith-based “border sciences” allowed leaders to mythologize their beliefs in racial superiority. Border science, as distinct from pseudoscience, was a term adopted by 1930s occultists.
Hitler Used Werewolves, Vampires, and Astrology to Brainwash Germany
'Hitler’s Monsters' is a new book that examines the surprisingly deep connection between Nazis and the supernatural.

The supporters of the New Obscurantism have also broken with the ideals of America’s Founders, all of whom considered themselves to be men of the Enlightenment. Benjamin Franklin was not only a political thinker but a scientist and a brave advocate of smallpox inoculation.
