Do not look away.

using insanely stupid methods to accomplish something they already failed at doing in the past

Most infighting on the left in the US is simply due to the US government spending a century shooting any leftist leader in the head and strangling every organization with. You've never seen a healthy, thriving leftist movement in the US, a Pinkerton put a bullet in its head a century ago

"I hear what people say. 'Duke this. Duke that.' Duke's great. Jon Scheyer is awesome. But don't sleep on Houston. Don't sleep on Houston. We weren't 34-4 playing in the Toy Poodle League." Kelvin Sampson after Houston's come-from-behind win over Duke.

Duke sucks

"Skill versus will, and will won." STFU, Charles Barkley you hack.

The biggest thing we need to do is let people know that the protests are FUN. Yelling fuck the man is fun. You will meet fun people. We also need to make them more fun. Bring grills like the French. Bring instruments like it’s Mardi Gras. Give people a reason to spend their weekend in the streets.

We know the Hands Off! rallies are working because Trump’s professional cheerleaders are out doing damage control

⚡️US neo-Nazi terrorist group pays recruits to carry out attacks in Ukraine, Guardian reports. A U.S. neo-Nazi terrorist group with links to Russia is offering locals payment to carry out attacks, the Guardian reported on April 5.

Well that didn’t take long.

Imagine being an hideous person who is so stupid he has to pretend the only way people would dislike him is if they were paid to *pretend* to dislike him. What an idiot.

Graham Allen is paid to say stupid shit like this, and there is a non-zero number of people who will believe him.

Republicans are the anti-voting anti-democracy party.

History class 2050: Which group did America not tariff during the trade wars: a) Canada b) United Kingdom c) Penguins d) Russia

Don’t forget slapping enormous tariffs on the Canadian lumber we primarily use to build houses.

(1/X) America doesn’t have a Trump problem, it has a Republican party problem. More broadly, as I’ve learned with my narcissistic sociopath colleague, narcissistic sociopaths are only as destructive as the people around them allow them to be…

My three-yea-old was watching CNBC when she turned to me gravely and asked "Daddy, why does the nice orange man want to put tariffs on the penguins?" And when I told her "Because penguins are globalist shitlibs who steal American manufacturing jobs with unfair trade practices," she started crying.

people are like "why do all these guys with email jobs act like everyone wants to work in a factory" but afaict none of the dudes advocating this have ever held down a legitimate job of any kind.

👀 Ukrainian FPV drone operators captured groundhogs fighting with one another.

Fun fact: the entire cost of America's war effort in World War II (all the weapons, ammunition, equipment, deployments, Manhattan Project, etc) was about $5.95 trn in 2025 prices. The total US stock market losses from the Trump tariffs in only 2 days have already passed $6.6 trn.

YOU GUYS.

The grandson of the leading British fascist of his generation being an AI enthusiast is uncomfortably on the nose.

Imagine spending a half million dollars to attend Police State University, where you’ll get to experience NYPD brutality up close and where they might just revoke your degree for wrongthink even after you’ve graduated.

Palestinian medical officials say they obtained video footage that refutes Israel's claims about the killing of 15 rescue and aid workers in the southern Gaza Strip last month. By @danielestrin.bsky.social and @alexleff.bsky.social

“Stop the penguin memes!!”

I’m pretty sure the only people buying this are the perpetrators, not the victims.

“What did they expect?” is kind of a misleading question. The people who supported them didn’t expect something very specific. They expected to own the libs. They expected people they resented to suffer. The expected the world to burn. It wasn’t about specifics.

Democrats need to find a way to work with the people who will punish anyone who works with Democrats.

check out this one weird trick to ruin your campaign

craziest thing about this type of take imo is the lack of awareness of global politics If a man wants to live a "hard life" he can join the military. He can go to war zone. Literally nobody is stopping upper middle class white men from fighting in conflict zones You only as hard as you want to be

So we’re 75 days into trumps second term, people are protesting everywhere. Markets have had two days of absolutely apocalyptic losses. There are grad students being disappeared and a man with an autism awareness tattoo was sent to a super scary prison in El Salvador. They’ve cut cancer research..

Trump’s entire tariff policy is based on fake data from a fake expert Navarro invented—literally an anagram of his name. Six trillion in wealth vaporized because these clowns ran U.S. trade policy like a bad SNL skit. This isn’t governance—it’s economic sabotage. www.rawstory.com/tru...

not meant to dig on anyone. but quotes like this are a reminder that a lot of people are two or three stages removed from having the slightest idea of what's going on. that's not an invitation to feel superior to other people but to see the value of political organizing, good media over bad etc.

People aren't going to get their treats is the only thing worth caring about in the US, but Klarna and StubHub can fuck right off and go bankrupt for all I care.

Andrew Chen, co-founder of one of my favorite denim brands, 3sixteen, breaks down how the tariffs affect his company IG 3sixteen

Catturd is the sort of person that has a computer that should be searched by police.

The lack of treats will cause an uprising of the most vocal kind.

20,000 workers now getting fired at the IRS. Meanwhile, two of Musk's DOGE staffers just started work at the FTC.

NYT: “A video discovered on the cellphone of one of the paramedics found along with 14 other aid workers in a mass grave… shows the ambulances and fire truck were clearly marked and had their emergency lights on when Israeli troops hit them with gunfire.” www.nytimes.com/2025/04/04/w...

Checked my 401(k) — it’s not a retirement plan, it’s an obituary for my dreams of ever leaving the workforce alive.

periodically we see a brand new food invention usually it is clear that the inventor should be sent to The Hague, but on rare occasions we encounter one whose inventor should be immediately canonized for their contribution to humanity this is such an invention
