something that was hammered into my head as a journalism student is "prognostication is not truth," or "you cannot report something that hasn't happened yet as a fact." and yet i see this rule violated daily

Me, an atheist: Your holiness I stand ready to join the crusade against these heretics

Every election post tonight is like "Wow the Democrats won the mayoralty in Racismville. Trump didn't just win Racismville but all of Klan-Guntruck County by 42."

Holy fucking shit it's real lol Olivia Reingold of the Free Press asks Abdul El-Sayed "does Israel have a right to exist as a Jewish state?" AES: "What do you mean by a Jewish state?" [...] "If you can't define the question, I'm not gonna answer it.

Can we normalize literacy?

Has anyone checked the poly market odds for nuclear winter? I’m sure some people in the white house would at least be trying to cash in before they kill us all

You can't do anything if the world explodes tomorrow, so be happy today. And help people.

just about the most revolting shit i ever heard in my life

Chapo Trap House: All politics are sexual pathology and the sexual pathology of the right is rape. The critics: PSHHHH that's too simplistic, this is a land of contrasted motives and complex individuals. Reality:

Trump posted this article as if it showed people aren’t as worried about climate change but people just think war between major powers is more of a threat and the page he links to says “China to be the world's dominant economic power in the coming decade”

Remember that time when ICE shot a man as he fled into his home and then claimed he beat an agent with a snowshovel? And we were all like "you're lying"? They were lying www.nytimes.com/2026/04/06/u...

tomorrow is the funniest day it could happen because no one will really believe it until thursday

maybe “we’re shooting so many missiles” was a bad metric to pursue

Happy polio vaccine announcement anniversary. "There is no patent. Could you patent the sun?" remains one of the hardest remarks of all time. Kind of quote every child should be taught

there is no ethical consumption under capitalism. what that means is, i can do whatever i want and anyone who implicitly makes me feel bad by abstaining from consumption should in fact be the one who is ashamed

Any time I spend rehashing and trying to come away with a more charitable understanding is, at this point, its own kind of disrespect and misconstruing. I think they knew and know better. I think they got worse because they wanted to.

The difference between Communism and Capitalism is those things happen when Communism fails, whereas with Capitalism they happen when it succeeds.

If I had a dollar for every critique of communism that amounts to little more than describing the modern reality of working class Americans under capitalism I'd own the means of production at this point

the people who organized the aid going into cuba and are there on the ground are some of the best among us

I know it’s apparently only salient to most American media outlets to talk about oil, but for the few remaining people left with a soul, thousands of people live on this tiny island in only 8 sq miles. This reads like a serial killer prison interview.

Sad to see the Ides of March becoming commercialised like this. I really feel like we're losing track of the true spirit of the holiday. It's not about how many knives you can stick in a tyrant all at once, it's about the whole community coming together to stab the tyrant as many times as possible.

The oppressor understands the power of community too… That’s why they try to create cult-like schematics. Unity and belonging promotes action.. Ask any fan of a sports team.

You really need to watch this whole clip. It's amazing.

if your friends aren't talking about communism, talk to them about communism

I sometimes worry that too many people think being a good critic means being a self-righteous dick about every little thing and I think far too many miss the point that you can't critique anything if you don't know how to love something.

“I think you meant” no I did not. I know how to turn my thoughts into sentences

A lie don’t care who tell it!

Seems to me this person could...instead of hopping on the defensive train and riding it around social media...go out and fight the racists they claim not to be.

Hi my name is Sluggo and I have solved MANY problems both mine and others through the power of judiciously applied violence, either real or implied. Let me tell you about violence. It’s simple, it’s easy, it’s direct, and it’s rarely misunderstood. Violence™️: when that shit needs to end right NOW

Brb building Rome. Should be done tomorrow

ProPublica published children's letters and drawings documenting their sadness and suffering at Dilley. And Dilley staff are now retaliating by confiscating kids' letters and drawings. www.sacurrent.com/news/san-ant...

It can simultaneously be true that sections of the working class in the United States budget like crazy and that other sections cope with the lack of extra funds by not caring at all, getting into large amounts of debt, gambling, not paying attention etc

The west has truly fallen

[seeing two beautiful women giggling and holding hands across a table in a café on valentines day] wow they must be such great friends

This is what peak masculinity looks like. Standing up for his community and his neighbors because he doesn’t want them to be afraid of feel alone and not ashamed to get emotional on camera

furiously tapping the "public education is one of the most important issues in our time because literacy rates are plummeting" sign because this video identifies a key symptom: literally every dipshit internet argument ever.

The fact that one of the top arguments people throw against communists are just like “well the first round of revolutions weren’t perfect therefore we should give up on having a classless society” like good god. The bourgeois revolutions had beautiful results I guess
