Countries actively engaged in combat operations against each other voted in favor of this while the United States voted no because having hope is woke or something. What an embarrassing display.

It's like what I love saying about tech ceos not understanding actual infrastructure. This includes people who do things like making sure your drinking water doesn't have arsenic in it, and the thing about the guy who does that is that he is the ONLY one doing it.

Zelenskyy stayed in Kyiv while Russia was bombing the city and sending in hit squads to kill him. J.D. Vance fled to an undisclosed location because some peaceful protesters yelled at him while he was on vacation. This is why I believe victory over these people is still possible.

People are not their governments. If you are also an American, it is especially vital that you decouple your sense of self from this nation. Dr. Fidel Castro had a powerful perspective on the clear difference between a country’s government & the people living inside it:

I hate to be proven right sometimes — or rather, I hate how predictable this government and its state media are. Reporting on the Democratic Party's decision to disband, Ta Kung Pao states the "Dove Party" (apparently refusing to dignify it by name) has "died in its bed a at a ripe old age" (壽終正寢).

Here’s the thing: women outperform men academically; on most desireable leadership traits women tend to outperform men; women are less likely to display problematic work traits; women score higher on measures of leadership effectiveness. 1/2

Always been fascinating to me that "liberal nations are weak and decadent and would simply roll over for any fascist invader" is an opinion shared by both fascists and many leftists.

If you oppose DEI you should have to use the full phrase, “I oppose diversity, equity and inclusion.” Bonus points if you add your points, “I oppose disabled veterans equal access to employment.” “I oppose mothers having jobs.” Making it an acronym turns it into a thought-terminating cliche.

I strongly disagree with folks positioning foreign interference as "treason" That’s not because Hogue Commission said so, but that is literally missing the crucial feature behind the sophisticated design of foreign principals’ to influence & interfere transnationally (like the United Front)

Many things are very bad. Please plan something fun for yourself. It could be a date, a day at a museum, a long hike somewhere, a visit to a favorite bakery, time with friends, ice skating, a comedy show, or a massage. Give yourself something to look forward to. It really makes a difference.

I remember all those defenses of the American constitutional order that boiled down to “yes it’s difficult to do things but that prevents radical change and ensures stability”. Welp.

Trump could say “I am bombing Kiribati so we can destroy the moon elves who live there” and there would be DC think tank morons who went “I think there’s a p=30% chance we are instead witnessing a brilliant geostrategic move to counter Chinese hegemony”

1/ We are at the point where many of us have to pivot. Those of us who have spent time warning people how bad things are have convinced enough, and the world has convinced the rest who doubted. So now, the more we tell those who already agree how bad things are, the more we create hopelessness.

Much of Trump's cruelty and chaos is targeted, but this one's going to hit everybody in their wallets. Remember, it's your civic duty to educate Trump supporters by reminding them it's their fault everything's more expensive and the economy is falling apart.🫡

this is why I am thoroughly over political labels but not national labels (personally, the CPC, KMT, and even the DPP in my more cynical moments can all collectively pound sand for all I care) so long as no one confuses materialist with consumerist Idfc

Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last. Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.
