We know trump doesn't have any hotels in LA because of he did, they'd be putting all the National Guard in those at jacked up rates rather than making them sleep in warehouses.

"No Kings" is great, but its also important to realize that the kind of absolute power Trump is asserting would make even George III blush. This is Louis XIV-tier, pre-English Civil war level ambition.

leftists: that thing you teach us in school to be terrified of is happening historians: that thing is definitely happening star wars: here is a beat-for-beat breakdown of how the thing happens, but with pew pew lasers. we know you watched it news outlets: these protesters are out of control

Many people will support any agenda if the proposed means constitute harming others, and will oppose any agenda if the proposed means constitute helping others. Their sadism is always in search of an outlet and justification. This explains a lot of the apparent hypocrisy we see on the Right.

Sometimes I think the “this is just a distraction” crowd just can’t handle the chaos, and that’s their way of cooping. But this is our reality. All of it. We don’t get to pick one crisis at a time. Walk and chew gum.

This is why cop worship is so harmful, you may not give a shit about immigrants today but eventually that Punisher branded tear gas canister will be aimed at you when you’re protesting $300 loaves of bread

"I voted for lawless, anonymous, masked, and unchecked police" is one hell of a jump from "eggs cost too much."

you feel like a big man, shooting an unarmed woman from behind? you fucking dickless cur. i hope you drown in your own piss.

Who wants to bet that after his so-called "parade", those tanks aren't leaving?

Losing a friend to a cult is hard Losing family to a cult is disastrous But losing a whole county to a cult is devastating and become surreal

Sometimes I think about how the far right has the patience to play the long game because none of the shit they’re obsessed with has any material impact on their lives.
