Yes, democracy is endangered and the authoritarians continue to undermine voting rights. But assuming there won't be any more elections only helps MAGA, normalizing the end of elections and driving down turnout. I'm muting these defeatists in my mentions. Prepare to win or get out of the way.

People in the GOP made fun of Nancy Pelosi's husband being nearly beaten to death with a hammer. You cannot shame these people. You cannot demand they adhere to social norms. They gleefully, willfully spread misinformation about attacks they provoke. They can only be punished.

For Dems to even consider a comeback for Cuomo after his serial predation of women, is for Dems to also say that EVERYTHING they claim to believe about equality and women’s rights to be safe in the workplace was bullshit. Do they even get the level of hypocrisy?

Cuomo doesn’t just get to rehabilitate himself from sexual harassment because he’s rich and powerful. He gets to because he’s a man. It’s the same situation for everyday, ordinary men, while women from all walks of life are not just denied justice but punished for asking for it

🧵I think it’s important to understand what disinformation like Sen. Mike Lee’s tweets are trying to do, psychologically/cognitively. In my disinfo class/Substack, I talk about how disinfo often uses “moral disengagement strategies” to manipulate people into accepting harmful conduct 1/

Sexual harassment is the canary in the corruption coal mine. If Cuomo/any elected official is willing to abuse government staff, they're sure as hell willing to abuse every other form of power they have. Sexual harassment is corruption, period.

Any successful and impactful democratic movement is going to have to hold these criminal authoritarians accountable and also carry out an extensive investigation and reformation of our law enforcement. It feels overwhelming but literally none of this will change without it.

This is obviously ridiculous but it is kind of bleakly funny that this advice more or less has the same beats as advice about what to do if you encounter a bear in the woods, just in terms of the unknowability of the other party. "Make yourself appear larger and the cop will usually run away."

A right-winger -- a registered Republican, a Trump voter, an evangelical anti-abortion activist -- assassinates a Democratic official. Republicans respond by blaming the left. Democrats respond by blaming ... no one.

It turns out that the very best No Kings Day protest yesterday was the one staged by the United States Armed Forces in Washington—because if you've seen any of the military experts on social media or cable news today you know that their poor marching was deliberate and intended as an insult to Trump

The 60s are still in living memory, so I think we can be expected to remember there are quite a few grades between "domestic harmony" and "civil war" Not thrilled that we're going to be exploring a bunch of them! But the "imminent civil war" takes are overbaked

The military parade was supposed to scare Americans into submitting to Trump’s fascist regime. Instead, 11M marched across the country and laughed at his pathetic attempt to show force.

You’ll notice that the American state media are no longer concerned about age seeing as the orange felon is now nearly 80 years old and all they’ve been doing is normalizing his birthday dictator march. They have completely failed all of us as well as our democracy.

Democratic senators need to stop pretending that GOP senators are their “good friends across the aisle” and realize many of them are just lying sociopaths who are actively fanning the flames of violence against them.

Canadians are overwhelmed by US media and we see everything Americans do. I watched it all, including Trump’s fake Bastille Day, live. A dismal, ridiculous parade is described as “spectacular” while 5 million people protesting barely registers. Y’all have a problem.

It will forever anger me that so many NY State Democratic leaders are backing a known sexual predator to lead New York City just to protect Big Money and corporate greed — and then will continue saying they will “fight for women.” Don’t rank Cuomo.

The point is to create a world in which the authoritarians can simultaneously inhabit a position of victim and abuser, creating an imagined threat of persecution and violence in order to persecute and carry out violence. This is how this always works. We cannot allow this to continue.
