I enjoy how Americans will post an image of a man bravely standing in front of a tank at Tiananmen every year to commemorate the wickedness of violence against protestors and then see a protester get trampled by a cop on horseback on CNN in LA and say “well what did he do wrong to deserve that?”

We need to build some real social stigma around being afraid of cities. You don't have to like them or live there, but a politics built this strongly around watching TV and going "ewww" is embarrassing, and people should be embarrassed by it. It's like "fear of werewolves" being your top issue.

This is where a culture of cruelty begets even more cruelty. Most racist policymakers wouldn’t raid food processing plants because they know the economy needs immigrant labor, but a culture of insane cruelty and the need to meet unrealistic targets means stupid people making bad and cruel decisions.

This guy is out of his mind

MOUSE BROKE NO PROBLEM WE ARE PARSING

all conservatives are bots

Really funny to wave an Israeli flag at your anti immigrant protest. Kinda giving the whole game away

no shit you fucking moron. right wingers don't apologize, they just take everything you idiots give them and demand more because they know you'll happily give it to them. go to hell and stop letting us all get killed you fucking delusional morons

The shit they are about to try to throw at Mamdani is going to be next level. Can't wait to see if they're gonna need Obama to show his ass again

The only rift that exists in the conservative coalition is between people who were on the Epstein flight logs and those who are still jealous that they weren’t invited

Obama not clawing back any of Bush's post-911 excesses or holding anyone in his administration accountable for their many crimes led directly to where we are today. Pretending people shouldn't criticize him only serves to ensure that it will happen again after Trump.

Newsom is taking a turn proving that if Democrats do literally anything other than the “my Republican friends“ or “what Americans really want to hear about right now is egg prices” routines, they come off looking brave and bold. The bar is *that* low.

"Damn, I forgot bacon" should've been disqualifying from public life

I think it’s a bit offensive that transphobes think women are so inferior at sport.

ICE Releases Gavin Newsom Beheading Video

Gotta love an 86-year-old woman with the heart of a poster

conservatives are beginning to publicly workshop their rehabilitation of jeffery epstein lol

The mainstream/centrist punditocracy seems to exist in an alternate universe around discussing protests where 1) BLM happened while Joe Biden was President and 2) it resulted in an electoral wipeout for Dems

Uh, Republicans control the house and senate, do you expect Democrats can just wave a magic wand and not praise ICE and advise people to help them

the thing about the department of homeland security is that the natural fit to lead it and run it exactly as intended is a woman whose sole accomplishment in life is animal abuse

Every article about the inevitability of AGI

i admire that the "intellectuals" behind trump like vance or yarvin genuinely believe they are going to change american "culture" at literal gunpoint

Bernie was the guy to prevent what's happening now, if it wasn't too late already. He's not the guy that's going to stop it. Not sure who is. It's definitely not anyone he ran against either time either.

just looked over on twitter again for some reason and unironically every single person over there needs to be rounded up

Twitter is currently running ads for *checks tweet* pedophiles

the fact that people were told “today you are going to an elementary school to lie to teachers and kidnap kids” and didn’t immediately tell their bosses to go fuck themselves is all you need to know about why ICE should be dismantled

jesus

this is the diversity of opinion that morons like megan mcardle are talking about

A new sadsack category on X The Everything App are the Bluechecks who want the army to crack some skulls in LA, they’re in the replies of reporters saying “@grok is America on the brink of civil war? Use unbiased facts” and Grok says “No”

don't know what else to say. it's here. it's not academic or what if, it is here and you have to decide what you're going to to about it now.

We knew this when they were silent about Philando Castile.

I was the victim of a hate crime on the 10th anniversary of 9/11 in NYC. The perpetrators were waving American flags. A journalist reported on it and blamed me for it. You're crying over seeing a hammer and sickle. Pathetic weak crybully.

"...Jack Kirby is the only major cartoonist to have killed Nazis. And he didn't do it from a distance -- he killed Nazis using the same hands that later drew Thor..." bars from this discussion on the comics journal: www.tcj.com/jack-kirby-h...

"Violent protest will just give them an excuse to hate you" meanwhile news anchors & senators were calling for Greta Thunberg to be blown up & drowned in the Mediterranean for sailing food & medicine towards Gaza.

Waving a Mexican flag in the US prompts questions about your loyalty. Also if you criticize Israel you're not allowed to go to college.
