how badly must you have looted your country of 100 million people if you're acting like you've already lost a war with a country of 10 that has another front open already

Hi everyone I was denied entry, detained, and deported from the USA over the last 48 hours because of my reporting on the Columbia student protests I arrived back in Melbourne hours ago and had my phone handed back to me upon landing

to be clear: when they write "Democrats" they actually mean Third Way and a guy who was a Deputy Mayor 25 years ago

It's pretty obvious that a lot of US mainstream media either doesn't recognise authoritarianism or doesn't want to call it out. Either way, it's an excellent way to destroy trust in your institution.

“A deranged maniac impersonated a police officer and killed lawmakers but if you’re an immigrant be sure you immediately comply with plain clothes people who won’t identify themselves telling you to get in a van”, what a fuckin country

I don't understand why everyone is talking about "years of lead" when this is all more like 1930s germany but maybe I don't have the correct brain worms

The Minnesota assassinations, the attempted arson at Governor Shapiro's home, and the violent arrest of Senator Padilla are all straight out of the Jim Crow terrorism playbook. Same goes with cops aiming for journalists covering the ICE protests. None of these are new tactics, just a new iteration.

remembering the smarmy yale law prof insisting to me that trump must be allowed on the ballot because of the risk of escalating violence that would be spurred by removing him

I know how Jo Cox' assassination went and I know how this one will go. In 10 years people will not even know or remember that it happened and if they do they will believe it had nothing to do with politics.

It’s not just that they normalize political violence. They also accuse the left of engaging in mostly imaginary violence, which gives unhinged right-wingers justification to “retaliate.”

The fascists in charge will refuse to call this a political assassination, will refuse to identify it as coming from their movement, and will refuse to de-escalate. There’s only one way they’re going, and it’s to ratchet things up.

It's hard for me to square the phrase "posing as ICE agents" when it appears that any meathead can throw on self-bought body armor and ziptie someone and it's completely sanctioned by the state

this entire news cycle was driven by a single billionaire, upset because he was justifiably criticized for saying ignorant shit about AI and crypto

I looked deeper into the xorg gossip earlier today and it seems the guy who has now been kicked out and made an xorg-of-for-racists is also the guy who broke xorg for the vast majority of users in the last year. gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver... I don't think he intended to make it unusable

The thing to note about Israel's war on Iran is that Palestinians in Gaza are still being murdered while hunting for food.

This is bad. Republicans have fixed the contempt provision in the billionaire bailout bill so bond has to cover the costs. It can’t be $1 anymore. This will neutralize the court’s ability to hold Trump in contempt, and only rich people will be able to file injunctions against the government.

What if I told you that Obama did a fireside chat not even a month ago and asked you if 1) you heard about it 2) it mattered to anything materially or discursively.

OMG. According to two members of Congress that just conducted an inspection and confirmed horrible conditions at the ICE detention center where unrest led to 4 people escaping, apparently people were able to escape because an EXTERIOR WALL was made of drywall and wire mesh!
