How Hitler seized power: 1. Create a crisis. 2. Demonize opponents. 3. Declare a state of emergency. 4. Undermine elections. 5. Make the rule of law irrelevant. 6. Rule by decree. If America falls it will be because of the people who didn’t pay attention.

This country has seen some bad moments in the 61 years, 5 months, 16 days I’ve been on this Earth. But it has never, ever before come close to the supertoxic level of stupidity, mendacity, narcissism, nihilism, and moral apathy that threaten to destroy it today.

Why do so many feel like they've fallen behind? It's not because of immigrants, trans people, DEI, the “deep state,” or any other bogeyman trotted out by the GOP.  It's because big corporations and billionaires have rigged markets and siphoned off most of the economy's gains.

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

This is exactly it. I am thankful to have taken both taekwondo as well as self-defense classes. Most traditional martial arts forms are grounded in honor, courtesy, and respect. Self-defense says fuck honor! It's is about doing whatever you have to do to get out alive. ⬅️ We are here, America!

If you work at any news outlet, it is your patriotic obligation to go scream at your bosses until they're as freaked out as they should be. Musk is literally seizing control of the federal government - the payment systems, all the data, the employment systems.

Thank you to both late President Jimmy Carter, a true patriot, and the Siberian Express, a Russian force that's actually working for us, for doing their best to make 34's inauguration as minimalized as possible.
