What if there were a coup, the US government fell to a drug-addled oligarch who seized control of our money, secrets, and levers of power, and Corporate media did not report on it?

if a major politician held an emergency rally about the current ongoing coup by the richest man in the world, I think people would go to it. Shit is well and truly fucked. I can think of a couple of people who should do that right now.

If this were happening in another country, US media would come up with a cute name for it, like a “cozy coup”

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.

Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

My husband just informed me that “in Italy, people don’t shower in the winter when it’s cold.” I think he’s trying to make me feel better about not having hot water for the second time in a week. Or he’s trying to make me laugh. Folks, this is no Under the Tuscan Sun here 😂

In the presence of fascists, singing 'Bella Ciao' is always a good move.
Look at Germans in Würzburg singing Bella Ciao (the anti fascist song) in front of the right-wing AfD party stand

"Bella ciao" is an Italian song dedicated to the partisans of the Italian resistance, which fought against the occupying troops of Germany and the collaborationist Fascist forces.
