The world over, this is a movement driven by people who own car dealerships and work in HR. The buddy garrity right, burning everything down because they’re bored and 1 of their 250 coworkers wanted to be called “they.” There’s no punchline, that’s it.

Keep boycotting and limiting you purchases from them if you can’t boycott.

How to change a swastika that cant be removed

Himes: "It just looks like an episode of The Sopranos. 'Give us your minerals or we're not gonna help you fight a bloody butcher.' I mean, is this really we want the greatest country in history to be known for -- some mafia thing? ... this president is standing with the bad guy"

El Capitan displays a massive American flag upside down—the traditional signal of distress or extreme emergency.

"I voted for him 3x because he promised to be cruel and vindictive to people I hate.. not meeeeeeee" 🙄

A lot of people still haven’t figured this out

Just saw a thread about a guy calling into cspan saying his diabetic supplies increased from 5 dollars to 80 dollars and somebody in the comments, probably multiple people but I stopped reading, replied “FAFO” and I can’t stress enough how much you need to stop doing that shit

“right-wing censors are ‘quiet-banning’ books”** **the world’s most pathetic bigots are vandalizing public property

Right-wing censors are now "quiet banning" books that they can't removed legally. Librarians in Chicago have been finding books dealing with race, LGBTQ+ issues or Islam hidden under shelves, in trash cans or otherwise "disappeared." www.chicagotribune.com/2025/02/22/l...

“in Musk and his companies’ futures. It’s all legal, or most of it is, but it’s one big confidence scheme built upon a house of cards. These investors believe in Musk largely because he, like his father, is a relentless liar who refuses to back down once his dishonesty becomes glaringly obvious.”

I wrote about con artists, the root of the term in "confidence man," and how we're now ruled by men who build trust and work overtime to inspire the confidence of millions, then viciously abuse it. Link: www.jphilll.com/p/the-age-of....

NO KINGS is extremely effective because it’s simple, an extremely widely held belief, and gets right to the core of Trump’s assault without having to use words lots of people don’t understand

These are brown shirts, and this is Nazi behavior. We are not in a fight between right and left anymore. This is a fight between Americans and those who would bend the knee to a king. If you care about the soul of this country, we have to stand for each other.

W.E.B. Du Bois on the white takeover of southern public schools after Reconstruction. Not a coincidence that the chapter, "Back Towards Slavery," follows his analysis of the eventual dedegration of the public school system. Attacks on education are vital to (re)instituting authoritarian rule.

Impossible to overstate how central the idea that I, personally, am the only person who has ever done an honest day’s work is to the conservative worldview. This one’s not new. It has always been virtuous, productive Me getting what I’ve earned vs the predatory Others leeching off me.

This isn’t drugs. This is him assuming other people don’t work because he doesn’t do that much work. Very common bad boss behavior. bsky.app/profile/rcma...

If not answering your emails is a sign of fraud then I’ve got some bad news about the NHS

Also, what RFK is doing is eugenics. The GOP has been doing that the whole time. “Only people with preexisting conditions die of COVID so we don’t need to take precautions.”

Welcome to the resistance Ballsack Sports

That guy is Executive Director, Naval Sea Systems Command. He's basically the guy in charge of making sure the boats are good boats. And he has to send a frantic email out telling everybody to treat DOGE like a phishing attack.

$200 million taxpayer dollars spent on “tell me I’m pretty” ads to stroke his own ego, while he fires people to “save money.” Sociopathic.

“More than a quarter of the contracts listed by DOGE were actually already paid, the Journal found, saving no money. For instance, DOGE listed $168,000 in savings for terminating a contract with HHS for an Anthony Fauci museum exhibit. It had already been fully paid.” Beyond parody.

When they were using coded symbols like 👌 and stuff, they would call you crazy for being triggered by an emoji. They are so emboldened because nobody believed us. They'll be hanging swastikas from the white house and calling us snowflakes next.

This data is way too limited but this could be a cure for pancreatic cancer. How can we know if it is? And if it is, how can we access it? By funding scientific research. And with health agencies that can review data to ensure safety & efficacy, approve new treatments, & make sure they are covered.

Measles are contagious. Measles cause 1 in 4 people to be hospitalized. Measles can be deadly especially in children. Measles can cause blindness & deafness. Measles can cause brain damage yrs later. Measles can cause "immune amnesia". Measles are preventable with MMR vaccine. #medsky #IDsky 🛟 😷🧪

If people were really just dying from chronic diseases then how come they weren’t dying from their chronic diseases until after March, 2020?

Posting my embroidery so people can find me... 🐯 #embroidery #handembroidery

it is cool how this is illegal and that does not make it into the headline at all

AP could have been cowardly and rolled over for Trump. “We had to comply or we’d lose [funding/access/privileges]” like so many orgs are doing. It would have been easy for them to say “gulf of America” But it never stops there. They got the memo. Good job AP.

It is mind-boggling to me that people say "but I had to comply with the fascists because otherwise there would be some cost—" NO FUCKING KIDDING. Did you think you'd never have to make a hard choice in Fascist America? That you wouldn't be asked to sacrifice someone and be rewarded for it?? JFC

Midwestern public service announcement: in very cold weather a slice of cheap-ass bologna will freeze to a car and damage the finish in a way that can't be buffed out. Especially a car that's allegedly stainless steel that gets discolored by ordinary rain! Source: (REDACTED)

This is a stunning betrayal by Whitman Walker in DC. You CANNOT jettison the trans community to protect yourself. It’s shameful. I got my name changed at WWH. I have promoted their research. Now they are capitulating to save gay people at trans people’s expense by trying to erase us.

They’re gonna keep doing this, at the very least, until people start calling it what it is (a nazi salute) and get appropriately fucking livid about it. The phrase is “NEVER AGAIN” not “Oh maybe a little bit, once more, why not?” jfc

It's Over - Gator Days

Note that Bannon and Musk represent opposite sides of the US far right (Traditionalist populism vs technocracy). The fascist salutes aren't coming one faction of the "Conservative" movement, this is now a powerful cross section of its leadership.
