Just keep doing what you're doing, Donny. America won't really get the horror of your work until it nearly kills them. Maybe then they will avoid shit like this in the future. Without that, we'll just do this again in 2028.

I hate Musk, but destroying cars owned by people who aren't him is not a great move. It does not help people come together to oppose him.

Hold on a moment... Does Trump think that tariffs are added to things we export? That's the only rational conclusion I can come to.

The term "mendacious fuck" comes to mind.

If some dude doesn't want to respect your pronouns, feel free to respond with, "yes, ma'am."

Cutting government services won't hurt the people they want to hurt as much as it will hurt their base.

Removing the lawyers means someone doesn't want to be checked or balanced.

Yes, the Clinton administration cut the federal workforce as well. After six months on assessment and culling over six years. It's not the same.

The government is not a business. The stakeholders are citizens, not investors. Profit is not the objective, service is.

Take action.

Joe Rogan is a psyop.

I want to live in precedented times.

Keeps being true. Every day.

Who knew the deep state was actually a dozen techbros who aren't old enough to rent a car.

I dissent.

Capital doesn't care about tariffs. Capital doesn't care about labor issues. But it does care about instability and uncertainty. Trump is bringing that in spades.

The electoral college is a DEI program. For red states.

The federal government's new top HR attorney has said "Consent is probably modern society’s most pernicious fetish" and "Slaves owe us reparations," according to a new report from @pogo.org. www.pogo.org/investigatio...

There are things Trump is doing that shouldn't be allowed by existing law (enforcement aside). Then there are things he's doing that we don't like. We need to get over the likes and get to the legally allowed. Stop getting distracted by his assholeness.

Hey, Bing!, what's up? Sorry I gave you a hard time when we first met...

When people say there are things the government can't do, their presumption is that there will be anyone to stop them. The rulebook is worthless if nobody in power wants to use it.

"United" States of America is a dead name.

What will be the tipping point between speaking out and acting against the Trump administration? Is that what he wants so he can seize more control? How many lives will be destroyed? Too many.

I'm not advocating that it should happen, but why hasn't anyone bombed or shot up a rally? For either side? What are our homegrown militias and terrorists for if they're not going to fuck shit up? I think we've forgotten how to destroy everything for a cause and it shows. /s

Do the previous owners of Twitter feel bad for their part in destroying western democracy by calling Musk's bluff and forcing him to buy?

Some of y'all forgot Twisted Sister, and it shows.

The deportations are for real, but their primary purpose is stochastic terrorism. They want everyone to live in fear, and it works. They want immigrants, legal or not, to fear for their lives and disappear on their own. Deny. Defend. Depose. It works in insurance...

Being outraged is what they want. Yes, we need some anger to motivate, but we also need to be clear headed. Don't give into bait. Don't react with rage. Organize. Oppose.

Trump's expansion of oil drilling is just political football. It takes years for new drilling and extraction to happen. And it's not clear that anyone is actually interested. We already produce more oil and gas than most of the world.

Don't say, "this isn't who we are!" Clearly we are.

Ideal conservative social structure is vertical. Ideal liberal social structure is horizontal. You can see this clearly in their policies, aspirations, and organizations. Unfortunately, this is also why the GOP is better organized and on-topic than the Dems who are like a flock of angry chickens.

Conservatives are insanely hierarchical. So is fascism. Their motivating factor, realized or not, is the need to have someone beneath themselves. They're okay being low on the ladder so long as there is someone even lower.

Along my own journey as a neglected GenX kid, I'm starting to hear more stories from my peers. A generation of fiercely independent, emotionally neglected people. I hope we can heal enough to save our children.
