This issue for me is not "is it?" (It is).. it's, what do we do? Not buying his stuff seems obvious, but at this point, will it matter, he'll just buy something you can't do without.
If this doesn't ruin his reputation (like it should) what will?

This is a correct take.
In the coming days/months/years, don’t “yuck on people’s yum” here if you can avoid it. I know it feels trite seeing folks post their cute cats or jokes with friends in the midst of horrors unfolding.

Fascism aims to take your joy.
Pure joy is self-ownership; an act of resistance.

Embrace joy.

Weird. @bbc6music.bsky.social says they are having a 00s day. But they are playing music that was released in the last couple of years...

If there is anything 'A Christmas Carol' teaches us, it's that the rich and powerful will only change with the constant spectre of death hanging over them.

Anyways, what's going on in the news?

Nobody got rich on their own.
Elizabeth Warren's observation also underpins the argument as to why it is right for the rich to say their fair share of tax.

It never makes the NYT for some reason but some things that anti-trans activists have done recently include:

- bomb threats against children’s hospitals and clinics that offer gender affirming care
- targeted campaigns to get trans and nb teachers fired
- harassing gnc children at sports games

this right-wing framing has become sticky but is ahistorical. one of the key projects of today’s right is evading debate: attacking mainstream media, demonizing academia & encouraging students to leave higher education and buying entire social platforms because they don’t like the conversation there
another hot take on "listen lefties, you need to get out of your filter bubble and debate right wingers on social media to prevail in the marketplace of ideas"

in US & UK & elsewhere, the right wings are operating as cults. you can't debate them, they're not fact-based, they don't live in reality

You can neutralize your MAGA friends/family/coworkers by not responding with outrage. Putin has nurtured the national divide by weaponizing anger via MAGA and 🟠. Don’t play in to his hands. Conserve your energy for organizing productively by Grey Rocking the trolls instead.
