I’ll never get over how much building of actual resistance infrastructure and how much organizing was kept from happening because a bunch of people online thought it was cringe to care that an obvious authoritarian movement was taking hold.

*stares directly at the camera

The fun thing about America having centuries of unbroken institutional legitimacy is that the President can publicly say "I am doing a coup, illegally, in order to break the law for my own benefit" and 95% of people on both sides will say, "Oh no, he's not, that'd be crazy."

"Lula: O Ibama é um órgão do governo, parecendo que é um órgão contra o governo." a preservação do ambiente é um direito fundamental que o ibama está protegendo. se o governo é contra esse direito fundamental, então sim, talvez o ibama deva mesmo estar contra o governo.

The CHAMPIONS and ONLY TRUE DEFENDERS of women’s sports did WHAT?

I'm still trying to articulate it but I increasingly think we're in a kind of Crisis of Modernity where political and social patterns that evolved over thousands of years are breaking down under the impact of the revolutionary changes of the last century, and nobody knows how to fix it yet.

Se não tiver régua, ele vai fazer torto e não direito

CJR gave me the opportunity to write the story I've so wanted to write about the wave of liberal anger with the NY Times, Washington Post, et ilk, over campaign coverage, quoting many journalists and exploring theories. www.cjr.org/analysis/lib...

Guaranteed that by now the G20 has branched off a separate group chat without him in it

the depressing thing about what's happening and to come is how fucking unnecessary all of it was. no war forced us into this, no massive recession. bunch of bored morons pushed the "break everything" button because of the man on the tv and the people on their phone told them, and people will die.

a sign of a healthy and functioning democracy is that i'm getting emails from my kids' schools assuring me that the teachers are dedicated to protecting my children against the federal government

The cutting of medical research funding is a crime, and it will result in countless deaths. Years from now, when a child is dying from a disease whose treatment could have been discovered, neither they nor their parents will know the killer. But there was a killer, and it's not just the disease.

Four years of this. Four years of “he didn’t nuke Denmark, he just napalmed it, Trump Derangement Syndrome much?” Four years of open malice being deemed more virtuous than half-assed trying to be good because “at least he’s honest” and besides “he just says stuff, it doesn’t mean anything.” Jesus.

oh shit the 2025 calendar just leaked. i'm probably gonna be dmca'd for sharing this but it's worth it. i guess if my account gets nuked you'll know why

Literally ungovernable country. The GOP is ascendant because it is a chaotic nightmare and the median voter’s mind was the setting for that Oblivion DLC where you become the Joker.

COVID changed almost every relationship in everyone’s life and we barely talk about it. Whatever the true impact, that’s freaking wild.

i'm sure the same vitriol reserved for Just Stop Oil on this basis is just around the corner in the finest bits of right-wing social media

[paramedico da ambulancia]: nao se preocupe meu amigo, nos vamos te levar para o hospital sírio-libanês [eu na maca lendo as paginas da wikipedia sobre siria e libano]: me diz uma coisa amigo quais as outras opçoes de hospital. só de curiosidade

𓇼 𓇼 cole isso no seu perfil e deixe seus mutuals dizerem qualquer coisa sobre você 𓇼 𓇼 Saudades da época que tinha essas correntes no Twitter rs

The Democrats passed Obamacare the first chance they got in 2008. They then got blown out congressionally over it for 6 years in a row. And your lesson from this is ‘Democrats bad’ and not ‘Republican fear mongering bad?’ The bad faith of some of these self described “leftists” knows no bounds.

Out in Homs building defensive lines with a bunch of allies. They're all just out of frame, building defensive positions too.

*guy who just Googled the difference between hama and Hamas voice* here is my opinion on what the SDF should do

Republican Russia hawks are funny because it’s like buddy, they had an elite team of analysts and spies put their heads together on the best way to hurt our country and they concluded it was your party winning elections.

America's problems with urban planning go way back. for instance, Cowboy Architects were famously so inept at building towns that hardly any of them were big enough for as few as two (2) people

the frenzy over the hunter biden pardon is a good reminder that the press knows how to make something a scandal and has decided that nothing trump does is truly deserving of that treatment

We have a phone recording of Trump himself asking Georgia officials to find votes while he was President and people think Biden's pardon of Hunter is what's gonna finally encourage Trump to do bad things and misuse his power

Eu acho muito engraçado esses artigos que continuam tratando o twitter como uma ágora moderna e não como o puxadinho ideologizado do Elon porque passa muito uma vibe de quem tá tentando vencer o oponente no próprio jogo, e o "próprio jogo" é ir apostar em um cassino.

Something I see people consistently misunderstand is the fact that: Protectionism DOES not create jobs. It actually DESTROYS jobs. When you impose new tariffs and restrictions on imports, you also REDUCE American exports, leading to layoffs in export industries.

Genuinely surprised the conversation is not about how Biden is following Trump’s precedent.

achei feio o Biden dizer que os ataques ao filho dele eram perseguição política mas por outro lado… condenado por porte ilegal de armas nos Estados Unidos é o que? o sujeito foi ao supermercado montado num míssil nuclear?

Norms under pressure

Resentment is really the right lens to view America's right wing populist turn

toda vez que eu entro numa treta vem mamãe me consolar e o que ela diz é simples: deicha torar e quando a treta engrossa ela vem aqui me abraçar e o que ela diz é simples: deicha torar

sempre lembrando do estudo científico que definiu o ano de 2302 como o limite pra aumentarem a taça libertadores www.reddit.com/r/futebol/co...

Germany has fallen.

i'm sure a lot of it is thermostatic but i am really hoping we didn't roll back decades of progress on public opinion of criminal justice reform and immigration in just 4 years
