Trump's US, where MAGA Nazis kidnap you if you speak out. This woman was assaulted and abducted for asking a question at a Town Hall. The MAGA speaker jeered on stage and thanked the staring crowd for being subservient. Those who tried to intervene were also attacked. #3E #EndImpunity

Let's juxtapose that my Iowa hometown canceled an African American Read-In because administrators believed it ran afoul of Trump's anti-diversity e.o. and the state's "divisive concepts" law. A few days later white supremacists freely marched in the capitol. www.desmoinesregister.com/story/news/2...

In Jacobin, Julia Damphouse observes that losing their "anti-woke" faction helped Die Linke regain its footing as a straightforwardly left party. That's encouraging! Perhaps something similar could be possible in the US. Maybe even at certain left-wing magazines. jacobin.com/2025/02/germ...

The thing about this video of Trump licking Elon's toes circulating in the Department of Housing & Urban Development HQ is that the drooling duo may cut the agency in half after the year with the highest recorded number of people made homeless: 23 of every 10,000 people zeteo.com/p/ai-video-o...

Hakeem Jeffries still refuses to condemn Eric Adams, saying: "Eric Adams has the responsibility to decisively convince the people of New York City that he is solely focused on their interests and not doing the bidding of Donald Trump and his administration."

You're telling me that if we print money and give it to ourselves, not only do we get the money, but the dollar value of all of our hard assets goes sky high? We hit all of our targets for ten years? Bonuses for c suite? And the equities I own will go up because they also get money to buyback?

As America’s already threadbare safety net is shredded by the richest men on earth, people are losing their homes. A friend of mine—a 52-year-old woman who drives for Amazon—is being evicted this week with nowhere to go. I’m sharing her words (with permission) in the hope of getting her support.

social media needs to be regulated and treated very much like we currently treat drugs. that's long term. in the immediate term? focus on the 75% of men who aren't voting for fascists. you will have more luck reaching and organizing them than deradicalizing Andrew Tate fans.

All Pete Hegseth talks about is being a warrior and instilling a warrior mindset in the military. Personal courage is the cornerstone of the warrior ethos. I wonder how that fits with being such a coward as to fire generals with 35 or more years of service in a press release on a Friday night.

As the New York Times continues to describe what’s happening as “cost cutting,” a small cabal of far-right authoritarians and some of the wealthiest people in the world continue do what Mussolini declared to be the essence of fascism: the merger of state and corporate power.

And once again we see ow, when a formerly centre right party adopts the language & ideas of the far right, it doesn’t “win back” those voters, but rather strengthens the far right. In voters’ minds, doing so legitimises their position: why vote for an imitation when you can vote for the “real” thing

It is interesting that the late rise of The Left in the polls was not accompanied by correspondingly large losses for the SPD & Greens. Perhaps voter movement to The Left was largely compensated for by late gains from the UNION by liberal (Merkel) voters who were critical of Merz's course.
