wearing sunglasses inside and following an event where he at times had a hard time speaking coherently, Elon Musk walks off the CPAC stage waving around a chain saw. this is the guy currently running our government. Congrats, America!

I feel so sick. Enough with the lies, enough with the games. They know exactly what they're doing. This is a neo-Nazi movement. Proudly so. The only reason they've kept it coded up until now was to take advantage of those who didn't want to believe it. No more looking away. Face up to what it is.

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

The concept of “legitimacy” here is taken directly from the Weimar-Era writings of Carl Schmitt, who would go on to embrace Nazi totalitarianism. The idea is to cut out legislative and judicial control in favor of an all-powerful executive speaking for the nation (Volk). Now Vance has endorsed it.

There are new accounts with default profile images on multiple platforms that seem to exist to defend DOGE. Of course you can find this on Twitter but also TikTok and Threads. They could be real but it's worth noting that Orban does the same thing. So does China, Russia et al.

Not that it matters but SpaceX fraudulently submitted faked and incomplete test results to TCEQ and EPA last year, which is a felony that they used to put people in prison for, and the EPA ignored it.

If you think white South Africans should be invited to take refuge in the USA but people from the DRC & Venezuela should be turned away, I’m going to say your standards are…let’s say, colored by thoughts that are not about human rights.

This table leaked by 404 shows how the Trump administration continues to focus on policing the language of federal workers as a top priority of the administration, in order that they be maximally dehumanizing to match his rhetoric. www.404media.co/for-immediat...

We were just told that they won’t let us in. They are denying entry to 2 dozen members of Congress. Elon Musk has all our private information & we have no idea what he’s doing with it. This is happening completely behind closed doors. HELL NO. It’s illegal. We demand oversight!

Musk joins German far right's opening rally remotely, instructs Germans to stop feeling guilty and reminds them how impressed Caesar had been with German tribes' ability to fight. Could not make this up.

The thing with DEI, like with most culture war nonsense, is that it's not hard to find a few people or programs that are silly/poorly thought out/performative. But using that to attack the underlying concept is like saying "eating at restaurants is dangerous" because you once got food poisoning.

They have barely regulated shit in the last few decades, having less competition in America directly increases other countries' ability to compete. The reason everything sucks is because there are like four or five monopolies and the only competition is for the chance to steal another monopoly

I keep an informal little equation in my head at all times: irony-poisoned → low trust → fascism I don’t care if it’s cringe. You have to believe in things, earnestly, to acknowledge that progress is happening and better things yet remain. Your “lol, lmao” at every little thing is death.
