The root that tears apart your foundation begins as a seed of distrust, hate, and blame. The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe didn’t arrive overnight. It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.

It’s weird how we’ve memory holed the fact that Obama entered his first term with a filibuster-proof majority in the Senate and a majority in the House and McConnell’s response was “We’re going to make Obama a one-term president,” not “there’s little we can do”

Want to go visit the national parks this year? Sorry. The reservation system is shut down, EMT personnel are gone, so don't get hurt or lost. No one can clean the bathrooms or cabins, so they'll be closed. Rangers are fired. www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/arti...

Every powerful person in America is terrified of Elon Musk because they know he's a dangerous sociopath who's running the U.S. government without any oversight. Americans should assume that Jeff Bezos saw this ad as a direct threat to his business interests, as it would provoke vengeance from Musk.

Hundreds of asylum seekers from around the globe are being trapped by the US in a Panama hotel where they'll eventually be sent to a camp in the jungle. One Chinese man said “I thought: America is a free country with respect for human rights. I had no idea it was like a dictatorship.”

Here’s a small act of resistance we all can do. Feed popular AI engines, chatgpt, claude, etc. strategic prompts that counter the oligarch’s narratives. Do it again and again. Influence the power dynamic by creating streams of empathetic dialogue w LLMs. Like it or not, they’re about to run the govt

So much bypassing happening right now. I get that this is all overwhelming and well, devastating, but sticking one's head in the sand will do nothing but leave you even more vulnerable to the oligarchs. And the spiritual bypassing happening right now is really something.

The fun thing about America having centuries of unbroken institutional legitimacy is that the President can publicly say "I am doing a coup, illegally, in order to break the law for my own benefit" and 95% of people on both sides will say, "Oh no, he's not, that'd be crazy."
