Stupidity is a lack of intellectual capacity, an inability to learn. Ignorance is a state of not knowing, a state that can possibly be changed with communication and education. We can make better use of our time and energy if we can spot the difference. (Hint: True magat = Stupid)

Said it a month ago LISTEN 2 SASHA RILEY Link ⬇️ 🚨‼️‼️‼️ Major trigger warning #Mm

One very serious problem, but not the only one, is that many members of Congress know that defying the regime would mean defying their sponsors.

Of course not all C**ksucker in chief voters are magats or extremists, and that should give us some hope. They probably voted against something that existed, and not for something ridiculous.

The cavernous stupidity of magats and other right wing extremists probably means we are wasting our time with them. Our energy would be better spent on those who don't get involved. Communicate, educate, and at very very least, vote!

When training for a pilot's license, the most important rule is "fly the plane". Despite the distractions or other important tasks, don't forget that rule. Much like the situation we're in now. Fly the democracy, no matter how they try to distract. Vote. Educate. Participate.

Finland's President Stubb is a positive global voice for those of us who often feel scared, or angry. He offers a difficult but hopeful view of reality. He's not perfect, but he's definitely worth a listen.

Time to find the c**ksucker in chief a little room of his own, with nice decorative bars at one end and someone to change his diaper, where he can dream of sex with his daughter.

Ultra rich Preppers: Zuckerberg is building a 5000 square ft. "little storm basement" in Hawaii. Trump is building a "ballroom" apparently with a "basement" that can be used by his inner circle, long after he's gone. Oh Oh!

"When you discover you’re riding a dead horse, the best strategy is to dismount." (Lakota proverb) This system is dead.

There's a bit of an upside to the fear, sadness, anger I feel. It means I haven't normalized this shit yet.

It's probably important to remember the objective of our resistance. First, of course, get rid of the c**ksucker in chief and his c**ksucking cult. Then we fight for a new world order. The old system is gone forever; that ship has sailed. The US will never again be the world's trusted leader.

"We should forgive our enemies, but not before they are hanged." Heinrich Heine

Clergyman AJ Muste was alone in front of the White House protesting the war in Vietnam. When asked if he thought he was going to change the country, he famously replied: "I don't do this to change the country, I do this so the country won't change me."

Canadian Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre just won overwhelming support at the Conservative leadership convention. That's FANTASTIC news for Canadian LIBERALS!

Just a few of the people who would be a better president than trump: the Grinch, Hitler (even in his president condition), Idi Amin, Stalin, Mao Zedong, Pol Pot, Mussolini, Ceausescu, Kim Jong-un, Kermit the frog, Saddam, Pinochet, Karla Homolka, any 3 year old, Frosty the snowman, Lizzie Borden...

Humans, especially those in public positions, will show imperfections, but some US politicians seem to be trustworthy. For me, they include AOC, Jasmine Crockett, Adam Schiff, Raphael Warnock, Jon Ossoff, Mark Kelly, Chris Murphy, Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, Sheldon Whitehouse, Ilhan Omar.

Oscar Wilde said it’s better to be beautiful than to be good. Since this administration is NEITHER, how did they get to this position! Such a pathetic lineup is bringing down the most powerful country in the world. He continues: “but it’s better to be good than to be ugly”. So maybe there’s hope.

ICE is funded by the Federal Government, and the US is recognized as a global STATE (think Marco Rubio, Secretary of STATE, or the STATE Department). ICE is a STATE funded terrorist organization, but the feds, not individual states.

Gavin Newsom says ICE is not a state sponsored terrorist organization. It's disappointing to realize that he will say whatever his audience of the day wants to hear.

"Oxford Languages" defines "state" as "a nation...under one government." ICE has been called a state sponsored terrorist organization. It's sponsored by the US feds, a "state" and it causes terror, illegally. It's a STATE SPONSORED TERRORIST ORGANIZATION, by definition.

It's pretty obvious that most hard core conservatives suffer from absolute inviolable stupidity, and will never see the truth. The ones that need convincing are the people who are ignorant, but perhaps not stupid.

And get our First Aid certification, it helps build community and protects us and our neighbours. First steps in #CivilDefence 🇨🇦

If the problems of the world seem beyond us, and all we can do is fight the issues within our reach, then that's what we should do. Open our doors to neighbours, volunteer to work with community groups, and remember, if we're not angry, we're not paying attention.

President Zelenskyy, we wish you and your people peace on your birthday. You're a major force in the world, and we know you're fighting for all of us.

Our PM Mark Carney is a ROCK STAR A movement is happening around the world and it all starts here👇

Yesterday another man was beaten, then fatally shot by ICE. This week Democrat senators can limit their power. Will they?

It's easy to think that like many lies, the republican lies must have some basis in truth. But no, they are total lies, based on nothing but self preservation. Look at the videos of the murder of Renee Nicole Good for example.

"You are not allowed to quit." Alexei Navalny - Anti Corruption Foundation

What really scares me about all this is the attitude of people who say they aren't getting involved because they aren't into politics. How fucking blind can people be! This is way past politics. It's global crisis and the edge of dystopia.

Equality and acceptance is not a zero sum game. It's so obvious that everybody wins. Why the hell does anybody care about their neighbours skin colour, religion, ethnic background, language!

When this long dark global nightmare finally ends, the world can start putting the pieces back together. It will take a very long time, and it will be difficult, but hopefully we're not at the point of no return.

Other cities can use Minneapolis - St. Paul as a model for protests: Big, Loud, Calm and very well organized. Show us all how you made it happen, Twin Cities.

Most of the very best people I've ever met are golden retrievers.

A serious investment in education, including studies in logic and critical thinking, could really help people with their fear of the liberal elite. To some degree that elite exists of course, but it's much less pervasive, less superior and easier to understand than they seem to think.

Perhaps they are bots, or spam accounts, but being here on Bluesky has made me realize that many people are so far down the pit of conservative stupidity that they are unreachable. Sad, but time to move on.

The world is at a tipping point, and what we're doing right now is not working. Past time to make some really scary changes. Leaving our comfort zone is our only option.

Innocent veterans are being arrested without reason, mothers are lining up at food banks, and Trump's worth is estimated at over $5 Billion and growing fast. There is no fucking way this makes sense.

Contrary to what you were told, it's not wrong to end a sentence with a preposition. That myth started when Old English was being translated from Latin, and ending a sentence with a preposition didn't work. So, it's not wrong. Example: is there a hole we can toss Vance into?
