Issues with Maher aside, the problem with the "Hitler was uniquely evil" argument is that whilst he was unspeakably evil (obviously), he wasn't uniquely so. Leopold II, Andrew Jackson, Alexander Stephens, Henry the Navigator, Ferdinand and Isabella...all were just rebrands of the same depravity.

"Eugenics is the discredited and racist theory that selective breeding can and should be used to improve the human race...Today, in the United States, a troubling trend has emerged where MAGA Republicans prioritize monitoring certain social issues while neglecting critical public health concerns."

It’s important to remember that this country once carried out a genocide against Indigenous people and enslaved Black people. What we are seeing today is not unprecedented and the ways to fight back have been put to practice before. The threat to our rights is not new.

If six months ago you'd told me that in autumn 2025 I'd have to go to Canada to get my annual COVID vaccine but I wouldn't do it because coming back through immigrations was too risky for someone who had criticized the government, I would have looked at you like you were having a stroke.

Sun Prairie Police Chief just said, "you know, Midwest nice, that's me!" Lol, hey you're Midwest stupid for certain. Midwest nice literally means "we resent you and talk behind your back, but sure you're a good guy. Say hi to yer folks for me." (Midwest nice eats its neighbors.)

I love the way Musk is shaping his argument, it so typical that a conservative will put blame where shame should be. "How dare you attack me! Me! For what? I put my dick in that pumpkin to make the economy whiter!" "Sir, this is a Wendy's."

Watching people discover how language works and treating it like it's an own to make the smog demon play balderdash is genuinely depressing.

The fertility obsession conservatives have is directly related to ego driven eugenic conspiracies and an obsession with racist porn. They blame the education of women for the feminization of the white man, while simultaneously believing that race mixing is only happening because of atheism.

True evil lies in the deliberate "semantic drift" that is a meta manipulation of conservative culture, blending dog whistles, and scarecrows to deliberately desensitize terms by lying, or, "spinning" the truth. If you sit with someone and tell them what their actually saying they are often appalled.

Everywhere is like that now. People do not want to acknowledge the conveyor belt all working class Americans are being gradually overtaken by; its destination the meat-grinder of poverty and homelessness.

There was an obsession I had with truth, facts, objectivity. There are sciences and arts. Most of the world is art. Sciences are reproducible. Arts are adorable to human rules. There's is science in baking and artistry in baking. This is true across the board. Even objectivity has it's artistry.

Read the whole thread, again young white women are in danger and they do not understand exactly how far back white men want to roll their rights. White supremacy in church pants is still white supremacy. They will go after all of us, but the slavery they fantasize about most is young white women's

Let's remember that most conservative arguments are in bad faith. Most centrist arguments are in bad faith. Most arguments against doing the right thing are an appeal to laziness in the face of futility, and. Most counter argument to caring are fronted by bad faith con men.

The right, who constantly calls shooters cowards, echoes the shooters' common cry for attention and respect. They demand the same things, "there will be violence if there is no change toward my demands." I believe in empathy, education, and compassion. These are their fears.
