This is what fascism looks like - using a conspiracy theory about a dehumanized outgroup as a pretext for seizing political power and wielding arbitrary authority. What you read about in the history books is happening right here, right now.

Anyway, something like 83 percent of Americans live in urban areas, if you’re curious

All snark aside about the terrible Atlantic piece in favor of the fascist parade or the general downplaying of #NoKings, if you're going to take action, it's helpful to know that MSM orgs rarely support acts of protest. As a rule, they dismiss protestors or paint them as violent thugs. Be prepared.

This is serious, rigorous analysis and it should change the way the media has been covering these protests. These were, in the aggregate, massive.

@msnbc.com reporter at the 1:15 mark. “The chaos you’re seeing is not the result of peaceful protestors, it’s the result of actions of law enforcement, specifically the Los Angeles sheriff’s department.” #nokings

The great @rasjbaraka.bsky.social, mayor of Newark, speaks at the Newark #NoKings rally in the rain. This is the man who was arrested by ICE at the Delaney Hall detention facility. He spoke about the need for ALL of us to stand up for ALL of us.

So basically the protests were peaceful except that two competing cop departments accidentally went to war with each other

even after an incredible day of protests, it’s impossible for me not to end it by thinking about the murder of rep. melissa hortman and what it portends.

I'm sorry but the largest protest of my lifetime is not the 7th or 8th biggest news story in the country behind "what does Gen Z want from Instagram?" This shit is humiliating. Rearrange your layout to meet this moment. Omitting the thing happening in every American city is malpractice.

One good thing about today in Los Angeles is that the mainstream media was onsite before the police started rioting. So many news crews saying "the crowd here in LA is totally peaceful" right before LAPD and LA Sheriff started shooting and trampling people

just watched this netflix documentary on the oklahoma city bombing and once again i'm struck by how so many of the popular media takes on this event just avoid entirely the connection to organized white supremacism

I need everyone on Normal People internet to know that American Girl Doll Instagram is doing doll protests today. There are tiny t-shirts and signs. AND THEN I realized it's a joint protest with the Barbie ppl, where there are EVEN TINIER SIGNS.

There must be an office or someone at DoD who understands the symbolism and protocol of parade routes, so this has to be deliberate. The Secretary of the Army ought to be asked about this

How many times did we fucking tell you. You gave up on wearing masks. You let them demonize masks. So they got to write the rules. And the rules are cops “discretion” is that disabled people should be arrested. Because when ableds get to decide who is actually disabled, we lose. Every time.

There's a kind of male violence that is often misinterpreted as being in defense of women when it's actually in defense of who has the right to harm women (in a "we do; they don't" mode, see KKK, southern lynching, etc.)

Respectfully, if you're a white person with a lot of privileges I think posting publicly that you are scared to attend a rally is some real bullshit. It has to be said.

What Noem said is crucially important: “‘We are not going away. We are staying here to LIBERATE THIS CITY from the socialists….’ The Trump administration is vowing to get rid of the democratically elected government of California by using military force. THAT THREAT IS THE DEFINITION OF A COUP.”

I've probably consciously watched ABC News programs since I was a teenager for some school project. It's amazing how clearly these place have lost their way over the decades and are now unwelcome in my life.

Just saw a video on the front of @latimes.com about a man born and raised in East LA who got stopped by the federal gestapo and he showed them his Real ID and they stole it, took it & didn’t give it back Then they walked off like a violent gang with their giant ass guns in the middle of the street

It’s not just Gaza. Attacking Iran is also meant to distract from annexing the West Bank.
