One of the things I took away from the 60s and Richard Nixon, first mentioned by Hunter Thompson, but I believe to be true, is the fact that we believed, at time, that all our protesting, marching and sign waving was futile and pointless when in fact, it drove Richard Nixon to alcohol fueled madness
Everyone is trying to have a normal Saturday night and the president's top advisor is on X announcing that civil war is necessary

The lying, racist, sexist dictator we have as President says he's sending troops to Chicago. Quick reminder that Chicago doesn't play:
When met with unfair & unsafe working conditions there was the Haymarket Affair. Leading to May Day.

Who Says Israel Is Committing a Genocide in Gaza? Everyone on This List
After almost two years, more and more politicians, experts, and human rights groups are finally using the G-word to describe Israel's violence in Gaza, but the list is still relatively short.

What the actual fuck…
I know there's a risk of amplifying the fascist horror show, but I think we need to be aware of just how far things are going, especially as this man is a Republican candidate for governor of California. All the old safeguards are being deliberately torn down, and the unspeakable normalised.

They know we're almost certainly, barring a miracle, going to lose this vote. They know, but they won't stop trying because what the fuck else are you going to do when it's your child?

Yes.
The entire Right gets on my nerves more often than not
In a way that's hard to pinpoint down to one cause and isn't reducible to Trump (who's doing some reasonable things and some terrible things).
Other factors:
1. The rise of racism, esp. the IQ/eugenic variety. Always there, now *overt*.

Spain’s government calls for interior ministry to cancel Israeli arms order
Purchase of bullets from Israeli company revealed despite government’s arms trade suspension due to conflict in Gaza
The leftwing junior partners in Spain’s socialist-led coalition government have called on the interior ministry to cancel a €6.6m (£5.7m) order for millions of bullets from an Israeli company, claiming the deal breaches coalition agreements and undermines efforts to hold Israel to account over its actions in Gaza.
Spain’s socialist prime minister, Pedro Sánchez, has been one of the most outspoken critics of Israel’s prosecution of the war in Gaza, questioning whether it was following international humanitarian law and calling the number of Palestinian deaths “truly unbearable”. Continue reading...

Russia just killed dozens of Ukrainians in a missile strike on Palm Sunday, a day after Trump’s envoy Steve Witkoff met Putin, shook hands and posed for cameras. Witkoff visited an Orthodox Christian cathedral. Today church-goers were targeted.
