I don't like the narrative that "fascism always loses". It implies that the natural state of the world is good, and that we do not need to actively work to bring about that good. It gives people an excuse to do nothing because, surely, fascism will lose. but it won't. Not unless we actively fight it

Lol. As had been said- right-wing ideology is as evil as it is bland. It's just dreary and nothing but one dimensional tropes because the evil characters never really branch from more than one of 4 talking points 1. Women + autonomy = bad 2. Non white ppl = bad 3. Lgtbq = bad 4. Poor =bad

Over on X, Chris Rufo is out with a series of leaked internal chats between trans intelligence analysts at NSA, where they talked about things like coming out, bottom surgery, and their sex lives. So yeah, employees should be afraid of things like that even if they’re not fired.

I'm not a political strategist or anything, but if I had a large platform, I would absolutely be running with the headline "Male police allow unknown men to kidnap, disrobe, and zip tie women" Or something along those lines.

Maybe corny but it was helpful for me to hear Henry Rollins saying "this is not time to be dismayed, this is punk rock time, this is what Joe Strummer trained you for... You can be thunderous in your own life, to the eight people around you. That rubs off... Goodness is viral"

A president rapidly sundowning into full-blown dementia ambiguously handed power over the entire government to a delusional billionaire drug addict in a made-up illegal quasi-office and the Cabinet is split over whether their departments have to listen to his mad orders. It's day 34.

If you're a white dude with some flexibility in your life, get a group of your like-minded bros together & go to these events to act as counterbalance to these "private security forces." Get in their way. Occupy space. Ask for their IDs. Outnumber them. Make their fascism difficult.

The Civil Rights Movement and the Labor movement in the US has been white washed so that many people think all our freedoms were given to us by people just peacefully sitting around singing “kumbaya.” People fought & died. In the 60s alone there were hundreds of riots across the US.

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.

I suspect it's that every accusation is a confession. He doesn't work nearly as hard as he claims and instead of addressing that, he creating phantom employees bc 1. It's what he would do, and he assumes everyone is as unethical as he is And 2. Its a good way to take the focus off of him

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.
