We learned from the Gaslighter-in-Chief's 1st term that over the next 4+ years, as our norms are destroyed & truth is mocked & ridiculed, we will ALL need regular daily reminders about what is and isn't real/moral/healthy. That's our raison d'ětre.

Sharing more townhall videos today because they’re giving me hope. THIS is good trouble! Who is this man? I want to shake his hand and buy him a drink.

Good time to see which people are genuine conservatives vs those who are happy to go along with destroying checks and balances for short-run goals

The world’s richest man who no one elected just walked into the US Treasury, stole your Social Security number, and Trump let him. You deserve to know why this is happening - call your member of Congress and Senators (202) 224-3121 and ask why.

Cross pollinating platforms

New from 404 Media: hundreds of subreddits, including some of the most popular, are considering banning all links/content/screenshots from X/Twitter. r/NFL, r/hockey, r/baseball, r/nba, r/formula1, r/ComicBookMovies, r/MadeMeSmile, so many more. Some already have. www.404media.co/hundreds-of-...

Objective Reality reminder for today...Nazi culture including salutes are fundamentally un-American. Patriotism & support of Nazi culture are mutually exclusive. We saw what we saw. He grunted. They cheered. Don't doubt yourself. Don't fall for the lies and gaslighting. It really is THAT bad.

ATTN: THREAD: The loyalty interviews have begun in DC. As someone who has direct experience with this, I have a couple of recommendations for all federal workers. Please share this widely, and with any federal government employee you know. 1/

“Trump aims to preside over an increasingly reactionary and expansionist nation where tech titans like Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos and a thousand faceless oil and gas execs plunder our planet and dismantle any fact-based reality in pursuit of personal wealth and power.” open

"California paid in a lot more [to the federal government] than it got back — $83 billion in total. So did Washington state and much of the Northeast. Most red states were in the reverse position, getting much more from DC than they paid in return."

"If the attorney general were to publish the report, putting himself at risk of being held in contempt of court, he could be pardoned by President Biden. That would be perfectly above-board. Yet, amazingly, Biden and Garland seem to still be in 2015 mode."

The blatant GOP hypocrisy continues... On Sunday, this stooge wrote on his social media, "Happy January 6 Eve, everyone. NPR has undoubtedly been waiting like a kid who wants something special for Christmas." Yet, 4 years ago today, he wrote this:

Daily reminder from the Department of Objective Reality that lying is amoral. No equivocation.

After today, January 6th 2021 will fade. Some will continue to track the bad actors, study what a coup attempt looks like in America. But, fade it will until it happens again, fomented by social media, domestic terrorists, cowards & foreign influencers. Our political & justice system failed us.

NEW: Trump says name of the Gulf of Mexico will be changed to Gulf of America

Men will try to buy Greenland instead of going to therapy.

I don’t want to puncture information bubbles, I don’t have a duty to point out the truth to committed liars, I don’t get my news all from one source, I just want to spend time online talking current events with others and not have the experience always be miserable. Is that really so unreasonable?

🚨In Nature🚨 Meta is dropping fact-checking to avoid anti-conservative bias- but is there actually evidence of bias? We this test empirically & find that conservatives * ARE suspended more * BUT share more misinfo So suspension isn't necessarily evidence of bias www.nature.com/articles/s41...

As someone who spent years reporting on Zuckerberg, I've struggled to find something coherent to say about today. Then @cwarzel.bsky.social reminded me of my old reporting. This is what a FB employee said to me in 2020 after Zuckerberg addressed workers following FB-enabled violence in Kenosha, WI.

Wikipedia is the last major, visible platform for facts that they can’t buy. The attacks are going to be merciless.

I can’t get over how cartoonishly evil this is putting in your fucking “hate speech” policy that a particular kind of hate speech against a particular group of people is explicitly allowed - and therefore encouraged - is the kind of shit that should be done from a volcano lair with a shark moat

Zuckerberg in a race to become Elon Musk: ✔️ $1 million to Trump inaugural ✔️ Appoints Trump bestie Dana White to Meta's board. ✔️ Replaces fact-checking with "Community Notes"
