'luigi mangione being celebrated as a hero will lead to a valorization of vigilante violence' is one of those things that only sounds reasonable if you start paying attention to American vigilantism at the exact moment it targets someone with wealth and influence

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.

The foundational principle of contemporary American conservatism is that it is better to be unabashedly evil than to be a flawed human being trying to be good but always falling short of perfection. It is a fundamentally anti-human philosophy.

"If successful, the state of Texas would cap Musk's monthly child support payments at just $2,760 for all three children....." DOGE's "efficiency" is the "efficiency" of a billionaire who saves money by refusing to pay child support. popcrush.com/elon-musk-ch...

Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

Oh fuck, what a grift. J6 terrorists sue a DOJ controlled by Trump; Trump orders DOJ lawyers to settle for an undisclosed amount, both sides agree to an NDA. This can happen dozens, hundreds of times. Just an ingenious way to funnel tax dollars to far-right terrorist groups.

"Spend more on Elon Musk’s social-media platform, or else." "A lawyer at advertising conglomerate Interpublic Group fielded a phone call ... from a lawyer at X. The message was clear ... Get your clients to spend more on Elon Musk’s social-media platform, or else." A merger could be tanked. Gift!

This clip imo shows how Musk is far more dangerous than Trump. Musk has literally no concerns with acting like a true fascist. It's very clear he's using his power to threaten those in the position to stop Trump's overreach, actively dismantling things Trump doesn't know how to.

I think most people are intuitively aware of this but something like the official White House account posting an “ASMR” video of shackled immigrants is not just cruel for its own sake, it’s intentional envelope-pushing to ramp up to desensitization over inhumane detention, camps, and deaths

Lets put this in "business" terms. If you have an arm of your firms that costs $50k to operate, but it produces $500k in profits, and you cut it, you don't save $50k, you lose $450k. By cutting billions, they have the potential to reduce future growth by the trillions.

Trumpists will continue to be furious at any dissent no matter how much power they steal. That’s because the administration is premised on pathological insecurity. They’re shitty people, they know it, and they will never stop resenting being seen as shitty people.
