It's not like the rationale even works either. You compromise with fascists, they just see you as weak and push you even further. You gain nothing - nothing at all - from yielding at the early stages. This has happened throughout history.

This is incredibly smart by @ryanhatesthis.bsky.social, a lesson Democrats have to learn fast. There will be no a-ha moment for the electorate. You can't wait around for people to realize how bad it is if they'll invariably wind up blaming the Reverse Vampires. You just have to fight, right now.

THE MAJOR: All of that blends to create a mixture that forms me and gives rise to my conscience. I feel confined, only free to expand myself within boundaries. TEENAGE ELON MUSK (nodding sagely in front of the TV): Women are objects

i still think one of the oddest political developments in my lifetime was trump's disdain for troops causing the party to largely jettison decades of troop worshipping lip service

Dem consultants: If you don’t mention inflation and betray trans people in literally every post, your career is over. Republican consultants: Hell yeah let’s have the puppy killer build the concentration camps and the corpse defiler fire the cancer docs, our base is going to love you forever.

Imagine accusing "female" and "non-white" baristas of being less qualified while using the phrase "Starbuck's workface" in a federal pleading.

I like how there is a certain laugh that is universally understood to be the "evil laugh". Like we evolved with a need to communicate that something is amusing specifically because we are evil. Makes me wonder what those monkeys who first descended from trees were REALLY up to.

the thing about traumatizing the federal workforce in order to get rid of them is that external pressure is critical to identity formation in groups under persecution

This is sort of the skeleton key to understanding a lot of shit: there 100% is a non-trivial amount of inefficiency and waste in the federal bureaucracy, and most of it is a direct result of ‘reforms’ that are meant to assuage the people who complain about “waste and inefficiency in govt”

this is the same basic dynamic as the way the media refuses to call him fascist or say Musk gave a Nazi salute: the thing that is being done has implications that cannot be faced, so it cannot be said to be happening

Not exaggerating when I say I would like a personal, handwritten apology from every pundit who barfed out a dozen "the left wants to change the way you talk!" op-eds based on non-mandatory guidelines in obscure PDFs.

A woman once suggested cornering her in an elevator at 4am and inviting her to your room wasn't a great way to make a good impression and now the CDC won't publish current bird flu spread warnings.

When you see a conservative influencer calling the Kendrick performance a DEI thing it’s worth keeping in mind just how many conservative influencers are failed screenwriters/stand ups/filmmakers who only understand any form of art through a lens of spite

This moment continues to feel like February 2020 for fascism: smart people who pay attention are freaking out, your average sea cucumber-like American is either totally unaware or blithely assuming everything will Be Fine.
