just so we’re all clear: the reason they keep using dolls as their example is because they’re trying to frame caring about material stuff as feminine and thus inherently shameful

Pediatricians say that childhood vaccines are safe. A heroin-addled nepo baby with a brain worm says they may not be. For busy voters, it can be hard to know who to believe.

Elon is going to "step back from government" like he stepped back from Twitter, which is to say he's going to lie about it. Anything short of politically removing him is like asking a tapeworm to please leave your intestinal tract.

ICE threatening charges against people for asking supposed officers to show their badges is weakness. Not succeeding where they hoped to, left relying on threats that likely won’t go anywhere in court (harassment isn’t nothing, but it’s limited). It’s a sign to resist their abuses more, not less.

The speed at which the Trumpets have escalated from deporting criminals to imprisoning op-ed writers and putting innocent people in concentration camps is breathtaking. They are no doubt swiftly moving to large scale concentration camps for political and media opponents. We have to be ready.

Just a reminder, we now live in a country where you can be attacked on the street by government goons and shipped off to a foreign hellhole to be imprisoned and tortured for life, or killed, without any legal recourse. Can't really process that but we have to.

Removing people to a third country to be imprisoned in a foreign gulag is also not deportation as it is typically understood. We can't allow these terms to be redefined.

The Garcia situation is just a sheer exercise in power dominance, a handy example to make clear that they can do anything they want and you can't stop them, even when they make a blatant mistake.

"Still, legal analysts have raised questions about the legality of sending US citizens to prisons abroad." what are we doing here. it is illegal. there is literally zero question that it is illegal. what is this 'raised questions' stuff.

It’s been lost in the tariff news but the fact that the U.S. government can accuse you of a crime and send you to an El Salvadoran prison without trial, is legitimately scarier than the most hyperbolic claims of fascism made by the left during the election.

Share this everywhere. I believe there should be immigration enforcement. I believe there shld be an immigration enforcement agency. But this one is simply lawless to the core. That fact is just inescapable.

i mean, there's no getting past the inherent stupidity of this whole degenerate Fox world. But taking it on its own terms, as manhood and masculinity goes, being protected from competition is, at least as a general matter, a weird way of becoming more manly.

🚨The Trump administration is arguing it can remove anyone—including US citizens—from the country, send them to a foreign prison and not return them when so ordered by a court. They’re claiming the power to disappear Americans. This is a truly existential threat to US democracy and the rule of law.

I can’t stop composing Yarvin-explainers in my head. I don’t post them, because the market is glutted. Everyone by now has heard of him and is tired of him. His ideas are quite stupid and anti-American, but apparently that isn’t obvious to everybody. Continued: substack.com/@mtraven23/n...
