Seems like a good day to remind everyone that Auschwitz — a complex of over 40 concentration and extermination camps — was not located in Nazi Germany either.

Spot the American. Is it someone who speaks his mind and does the work to get citizenship? Or is it someone born into citizenship who covers his face while abducting people in a Черный ворон?

Reactionary Post #3: So no... I don’t accept the normalization of barbarism, brutalism, fascism, the hyper-volatile expressions of hatred nor the parades of pompousness. I write letters, protest, speak up, but basically I intend to outlive the last nihilists & mismanagers of the Living World.

Reactionary post #2: I never wanted to be rich or successful, a social influencer, famous, powerful, nor have I ever believed in privilege, exceptionalism, arrogance, entitlement, or superiority. No pride here. The common good is real, invaluable, and thus more than just good enough for me.

Reactionary post. I am just thinking: Go ahead and adopt, support, & promote AOC for Pres in 2028, show our cards now, go progressive, build the movement, recreate the Democratic party, truthfully, for the People, flip Congress in 2026, reject magical/wishful thinking. Manifest a livable society.

I can’t “quote” this. I do want to say, though, that I think this is beautiful! I can’t say why, only that is the case. Looking up through trees is astounding, and so much more admirable than little-men-politics and the delusions of “power.” No one gazes at power; we only gaze at beauty.

A huge honor to get to write something with my hero @naomiaklein.bsky.social. We wish it was a happier topic, but it's an urgent one. We dove deep into the apocalyptic fervor of the far right to issue a warning about the rise of End Times Fascism. www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...

Congratulations Mr.Trump: you are overseeing the worst and weakest administration of the U S government in our nation’s history. You are pursuing pure fantasy, and you are leading pure tragedy, while everyone around you, apparently, is saying all is well. But it is not. What will you do now?
