Stop getting everyone's hopes up. Some of us don't have the memory of a goldfish and can recall all the other times stuff like this was claimed to foreshadow an evil asshole's demise.

I'm sorry, but when people say shit like, "We need a new Nuremberg to hold Trump officials accountable for their crimes" after we just witnessed a fucking livestreamed genocide with zero consequences for anyone from the previous administration, I just can't take them seriously.

It would be nice to go a single day on this app without seeing a liberal that's been labeled for transphobia and genocide denial regurgitate right wing talking points about how people shouldn't be allowed to retire at 65.

Counterpoint: "Convicted five times for inciting racial hatred, Bardot remained, for three decades, an exception in French culture – the only celebrity to openly defend the far right."

What is this Will Stancil ass take? No, we shouldn't consider the "psychic violence" of Nazis. What the fuck is wrong with you?

Tech oligarchs are dead set on completely reshaping society and destroying the world. These are not people that you can reason with. They are sociopaths that only care about their own wealth. Big Tech needs to be crushed. If the government won't do it, people need to rise up and stop this.

The fact that academics don't feel like they have any influence over their own institutions and the overall state of higher ed when it comes to AI reveals how much power they've surrendered to upper admin and rich donors in favor of siloing themselves off into disciplinary specializations.

2025 was pretty bad, actually. Aside from the fact that everyone is broke, Xbox decided to destroy its console business, Nintendo went full-on evil corporation by increasing prices, releasing game key cards, and charging for cross-gen upgrades, and Playstation is just kinda...there.

If liberals actually cared about innocents being murdered by the state, they wouldn't keep making dumb arguments about the USSR under Stalin and they'd be screaming about excess mortality under capitalism in the US. Hell, Trump and Biden killed 1.2M and counting with their COVID response alone.

9/11 was transformative, in the sense that it was a shock doctrine moment that terrified comfortable normies so much that they signed off on every agenda item on the military industrial complex and police state's wish list. We are currently dealing with all the consequences resulting from their fear

People are not being paid enough. You can't maintain slave wages when prices are rising at this rate. The federal minimum wage is obscene. I hate that a DemSoc established the framing for this as "affordability" when the problem is that wages are stagnant and capitalists are hoarding all the wealth

As soon as I see one of my mutuals quote posting someone that has their academic credentials in their user name and whose bio was pulled directly from their LinkedIn, I always know that they're responding to the most galaxy-brained take, ever.

I talked to the scholars who literally wrote the book on tech bubbles—and applied their test.

Centrism is when you shit on mutual aid and argue that charity is a superior system because it operates through giant bureaucratic organizations that always take the bulk of the proceeds for themselves before picking winners and losers. Chart fetishists are obsessed with preserving failed approaches

People need to realize that in our world full of an ever-increasing number of natural disasters, if a cataclysmic event destroys your life, you're on your own. No help is coming, especially not from the federal government.

You don't have to watch Stranger Things, the same way that you don't have to watch Harry Potter. Unfortunately, when we live in a capitalist system where consumption benefits horrible people, our decision not to participate is the only way to collectively exercise power.

In case you were wondering what the Dems are going to do about ICE if they ever get back into power again.

Friday ice update - #Arctic sea ice extent is currently the *lowest* on record (JAXA data) 🛠️🧪 • about 500,000 km² below the 2010s mean • about 1,110,000 km² below the 2000s mean • about 1,670,000 km² below the 1990s mean • about 2,000,000 km² below the 1980s mean More: zacklabe.com/arctic-sea-i...

If you think it's difficult organizing and being in community with other socialists, you should try having a conversation with academics. They will literally manufacture elaborate reasons to argue with you for no reason, even when you agree on a given topic.

Yes, please. 🙏

When even the financial press is like, "Corporations are fucking you over in too many ways to count."

"By avoiding traditional acquisitions, tech companies have been able to skirt some level of antitrust scrutiny and quickly close deals to bring in the people they most covet."

The story of the last 60 years is that center destroyed and displaced the left, while making life so unbearable for decades that fascists returned to power. Now, the center has no answer, except to collaborate with Nazis, while the left is unorganized, fractured, and dismantled. Things are bleak.

This is terrifying. A 75% approval rating for a fascist regime with 92% support coming from 18-29 year olds. Fascism is ascendent globally and being normalized by competent, presentable Nazis making ultranationalist appeals.

Trump has now bombed more countries than any president in US history.

People in the US support murder, atrocities, and mass surveillance in a multitude of ways. One of them is by owning stock in Palantir, despite the fact that it's among the most evil corporations in the world, just because the number keeps going up.

Politicians--especially Dems--present these issues as being mutually exclusive and insist that we can only talk about one thing at a time instead of building the linkages between them in the public consciousness. All of these problems are interconnected and they all lead back to capitalism.

If the US implemented universal healthcare tomorrow and didn't destroy the private insurance industry and abolish capitalism, it would only be a matter of time before corporations and billionaires dismantled the public healthcare system and brought us back to where we are now.

The ruling class says that things are "hard" when they don't want to do anything about an issue. They say things are "complicated" when they want to feed you bullshit about why they won't do it. Universal healthcare is easy. The rest of the world has already figured it out.

Billionaires are surrounded by sycophants who do nothing but kiss their ass all day long, so when they get on social media and are forced to interact with normal people, they don't understand why everyone hates their fucking guts.

Liberals only care about the Epstein Files insofar as they can use it as a political football. The contents are so damning that they would be demanding far more if it actually bothered them. Or, maybe they're just accustomed to infanticide after supporting a policy of murdering babies under Biden.

The two party system in a nutshell. One worked for Reagan and ran George HW Bush's campaign, while the other was Bill Clinton's campaign strategist and worked for the DNC. They've been married since 1993.

The Epstein Files are proof that people with more money than god do the most evil shit in the world just because they're bored. Having that much more wealth and power than everyone else breeds psychopathy. Billionaires should not exist.

Going into 2026 like

No matter how horrible you think rich people are, in reality they are considerably worse.

Time to revolt. "The Trump administration will start garnishing the wages of student loan borrowers in default in early January, a spokesperson for the U.S. Department of Education confirmed to CNBC on Tuesday."

Considering that the "American system" itself brought us to this point, why is anyone surprised that a huge chunk of the population considers this to be a compelling argument? No one should have any faith in the system, or this country's institutions--including the media and the presidency. None.

It's maddening that liberals are still trying to fight fascism with rhetoric, moral appeals, claims of hypocrisy, mockery, and by working within the system. The fascists don't care. They're not playing your political games anymore. They control the system and they're actively using it to crush you.

Higher education was already collapsing as a result of neoliberal influence and an overreliance on donor money. The federal funding cuts, attacks on student protesters, and transformation of universities into culture war battlegrounds have accelerated the process.

Finally I get to update what I yell at men I don’t like

Critics note that there's not enough electricity in the US to power all the data centers that are being built and that AI is raising energy prices. People need to think bigger and understand that we're moving toward a future where Big Tech doesn't just own power plants, but controls the entire grid.

LOL

My entire feed is people openly calling for Guillotines and for rich people to be put against the wall. I would say half of them have their real name attached to their account like me. The 'moderation' is explicitly a Centrist phenomenon because they don't want anyone to know their ACTUAL politics

Jeez... "The single-car crash was reported at about 12:45 p.m. on the scenic road north of Los Angeles in the San Gabriel Mountains. The southbound car veered off the road, hit a concrete barrier and a passenger was ejected [...] The driver was trapped in the ensuing car fire"

With everything happening at CBS, I think rhetoric about supporting alt media can give us a false sense of control. We have to grasp the reality that news outlets have always been on the side of the institutions. What we’re seeing now is a logical outgrowth of the US’ political instability 1/

These rebranding attempts are getting more ridiculous.

If you pay attention to any large industry long enough and follow it to its logical conclusion you eventually end up sounding like a communist even if you started off testing CPU case fans. youtu.be/cUrJVdF2me0?...
