Look, sometimes a color just, like, lines up perfectly for coordination, alright? 🩵

we have Trump as president twice over, no political scenario is too stupid they're all exactly what they say they are and Platner is a nazi sympathizer, a misogynist, and transphobe. if that's all the democrats have to offer they deserve to wither and die

SNAP benefits expire in one week.

No one should EVER monitor Nazi space without a strong support network that can check them regularly and watch for signs that the propaganda is taking hold, and address that reality promptly. Without a rock solid accountability network, it is playing with fire.

this is so incredibly fucking important i grew up in a cult it has permanently damaged my brain i don't get to "just say whatever comes into my head" i don't get to trust my own thoughts because what they teach you is ~permanent~ even when you decide not to believe it any more

Going up to certain "puppy" girls like

My favorite criticism I've seen of Hades II so far is "I can't believe they rehabilitated [deity] after what they did. They're obviously a bad deity" bro and/or ma'am I have some bad news about every member of the Greek pantheon

I reject that framing, and accept this one instead 🦇🦇🦇

one of the interesting thing i have seen in the platner discourse is a refusal to confront a thing on its own terms. to his pundit supporters, platner isn’t a novice candidate with perhaps questionable judgment to be evaluated on his ability to win, but a symbol to wield against rivals

I remember when I was a kid and my mom would tell me to do something but I wouldn’t and wouldn’t and she’d get mad and I’d finally do it real loud and angry in front of her like LOOK I’M DOING IT ARE YOU HAPPY NOW and for some reason she never was

when are we just going to admit that the king has dissolved parliament? do i have to keep pretending that there's any of the old america left aside from the racism and corruption?

Hey you ever think about how Dawn of War was peak

there's got to be some truth to this

obviously opposed to religious violence but I think if you are implementing an actual plan to banish the night then some kind of state-condoned moon priestess should be allowed to ritually sacrifice you, willing to be flexible on that one

Remembering nearly a decade ago when folks were admonishing people about how punching nazis made you "just as bad as them" while platforming nazis in suits and shitty SS haircuts through profile features and calling all of it the "alt-right," WE KNEW EXACTLY WHAT THE FUCK YOU WERE DOING

don't let perfect be the enemy of good, but definitely let "had a nazi tattoo for 20 years" be the enemy of "can be your senator"

you also need to learn how to interact with the general public like a normal person but i know im asking a lot here

i am once again begging transsexuals to read. anything. just being trans does not make you magically smart and good at politics nor does it give you coherent political beliefs you gotta earn that shit manually like everything else

tolkien: man I'm sure glad my book about how much industrialization sucks has found its intended audience, dudes who build war machines and want to kill the night sky

Anyway if you have a Nazi tattoo it’s true you’re not a secret Nazi. You’re an open Nazi. You literally have a sign that you carry around in your body every day that says “I’m a Nazi.”

the thing is that even if - through some absolutely absurd, farcical set of circumstances I can’t even conceive - an innocent person did accidentally end up with a tattoo they only learned later was a Nazi symbol, the only appropriate response is “holy shit get me to the laser removal clinic TODAY”

pretty proud of the custom kwgt stuff i've been putting together lately none of it is complex, but it just makes my ui so much cleaner

this is one of the cases where the autism wins for me if i'm not going to read it, i'll just dismiss the notifications i'm never "getting around to it" and i'd like to keep my notifs usable for the few things that matter to me

strictly speaking, the nazis were Germany having an American phase

Reminder that Violent J of Insane Clown Posse has the correct response to a lot of the shitty things he said in the early days.

i have the wardrobe for this, let's go (i.e. goth cowgirl)

referring to trans women collectively as The Nephilim and seeing how that makes cis people feel

i know more than a handful of american millennial men who had a nazi "phase" (for some of them it's still ongoing) and even narrowly avoided having one myself // screaming voice // ~because i was literally raised in a christofascist white supremacist cult!!!~ don't let them normalize that!

remembering that i'm supposed to actually promote my own music sometimes you just have some feelings about the state of your country

Tip o’ the hat to jolmy

A building isn’t as important as the people his administration has murdered but there’s something breathtaking about seeing them literally demolish parts of the White House. I can’t stop looking at it

I love that we’re all unanimously like “listen that building is not sacred to me and it has a bloody history and if it came down ethically I probably wouldn’t shed a tear, but watching this man smash a wrecking ball into the side of it from sheer selfish malice has unexpectedly fucked me up”

apparently i have a very particular way of holding my joycon

i truly despise when people say "not judging" when they are completely judging i'd respect you more if you were honest with me don't worry, bitch, i'm ~absolutely~ judging you

food stamps are gone come november 1, if the shutdown doesn't end. if you see people stealing food, no tf you didn't.

Excellent thread on mass movements. I know some people I know are comfortable with more direct action, but most people aren't yet. Just going to a single protest like today moves many to get more comfortable showing up and protesting in other ways. Today was a good day.

In the literature, we call rallies like this "image events" because they help **focus media attention** on a major strain of ideological resistance that is big enough for lots of people to feel comfortable. They create IMAGES that FOCUS our ATTENTION and AFFECT to mobilize frequently.

Rallies like this bring together multigenerational groups and the playfulness can help create enthusasim for big tent politics against the monoculture of fascism.

In social movement studies, we talk about how marches and protests expand the threshold of acceptable risk so that people take more and bigger social risks IN PUBLIC, EN MASSE. This is extremely important for the bourgeois white folks holding signs and building social rapport.

A Harrow sketch!

MSNBC Grandmas in Skechers seamlessly reclaiming the frog from 4chan Nazis in about six weeks has gotta be the political upset of the century.

listen to me, the ex-poster child for these movements, telling you that the people who know how to resist are already here and giving you an example then shut up and follow, don't try to be a leader, and don't leave anyone able to be a moderate any longer

the fascist movement today is following the same playbook they were following twenty years ago they're just much further advanced in the game stage at this point in time and they don't care what minority it is, they only have one playbook listen to black people who have organized antifascism

i grew up in a christian nationalist movement i didn't ~know~ it was white supremacist/christian nationalist until i got out, because i was a kid i loved martin luther king jr, thought he was a good man. i knew the dream speech i didn't read "letter from a birmingham jail" until i was in college

honestly i think that this whole "ai" bullshit that has happened in the last 3 years would not have been possible if not for the massive brain damage done to the populace at large by covid19 no covid pandemic, no llms

at least now i have a beverage grand marnier with a scoop of gifford's old fashioned vanilla

i just want to go out dancing with beautiful women but instead i am home
